New C4 series for Russell

Russell Brand is to return to Channel 4 with a new six-part series.

The comic will ‘contemplate the world around him’ in the programme, called Ponderland.

A C4 spokesman said: 'Over the course of six weeks Russell will delve into an eclectic mix of topics including love, childhood and holidays.

'Supported by archive footage and his own personal reminiscences, Russell will act as guide as he discusses seemingly generic topics and makes phone calls to unsuspecting targets and features in specially shot segments.’

The series is due to start next month, though no exact date has yet been set.
