Joe Lycett is back on Channel 4 this Friday night with Live from the The Lycett Arms, and he’ll be joined by guests Sir Lenny Henry and Joanne McNally.
It’s a chaotic, high-energy live entertainment show broadcast straight from his custom-built, technicolour, paisley-carpeted pub. Open for just one hour a week—every Friday from 10:00 PM to 11:00 PM—it’s a chaotic love letter to the great British boozer where anything can happen.

Episode 2: This week’s Guest Lineup is Sir Lenny Henry & Joanne McNally
Each week, landlord Joe Lycett hands over the reins to a different celebrity manager attempting a high-stakes trial shift. This week’s pub management duty falls to national treasure Sir Lenny Henry, who will try to keep order as the beer flows and the live broadcast threatens to derail at any second.
Joining the madness at the bar is hit stand-up comedian Joanne McNally, alongside a mix of surprise star-studded pubgoers, eccentric regulars, and live studio audience chaos.
