The Lenny Henry Birthday Show

Trevor McDonald, in front of a studio audience, takes a lighthearted look back at the career of Lenny Henry to celebrate his sixtieth birthday and also introduces new sketches.

In 1975, a 16-year-old Lenny Henry bunked off school to appear on New Faces. In 2018, after a long and glittering career, Lenny is 60 - the perfect excuse to celebrate a man who has made a unique impact on British comedy. Hosted by Trevor McDonald in front of a studio audience, this programme takes a lighthearted look back at his career and presents new iconic sketches including music legends Stevie Wonder and Stormzy.
