The 18th and final series gets underway with some familiar faces and a debut appearance from Pixie Lott.

Fellow chat show host Alan Carr and actress Billie Piper make themselves comfy on the Ross sofa this week. Music and chat from Alicia Keys.

Kim Cattrall graces the Ross sofa again, whilst there are debut appearances from the cast of E4's Misfits and X-Factor rejects John and Edward. Music from Editors.

No idea who Shahrukh Khan is, but he's bound to be charming and a far better guest than any of the mob from last week. Fresh from patronising fat people on Sky, Lorraine Kelly appears before a large audience.

Liverpudlian comedian John Bishop and Hollywood actor Jeff Bridges are the pick of the guests this week, whereas Courtney Love and Westlife most certainly are not.

A bit of everything on this week's show... an Irish actor, a Russian model, an English comedian and an American rap superstar. What more could anyone want?

Alice in Wonderland gets the Tim Burton treatment and Tim Burton gets the Rossy treatment this week. Lord Lloyd Webber promotes another of his stage shows in the guise of Over the Rainbow and there's music from Sade. Oh, and someone called Johnny Depp.

The first lady of pop madness, Lady GaGa return to perform and chat. Her 'chat' during her last appearance was monosyllabic - hopefully she's a little more verbose this time. Stephen Moyer, star of True Blood joins Jonathan to tell him why vampires are the new black.

Many chairs will be needed for this guest-packed show. The cast of Outnumbered, along with Charlotte Church James Corden and Cheryl Cole, will jostle for the best seat. Also joining Jonathan is Amy Williams, who won Britan's first individual Gold for 30 years, in the Women's Bob Skeleton event in Vancouver.

The Oscar-winning Sandra Bullock joins Jonathan, along with another Oscar winner, Emma Thompson. Also, the new Doctor Who, Matt Smith. Music from the staggeringly fabulous Goldfrapp.

30 Rock star Tina Fey is this week's American guest; chef, Heston Blumenthal, who includes salmon poached in liquorice on the menu of The Fat Duck and Aaron Johnson, star of Nowhere Boy. Music from Groove Armada ft. Will Young.

Coming soon...

There's a Yankee doodle flavour to this week's programme, with Demi Moore, Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow. Hopefully, Jonathan won't be as honest with Gwyneth this time...

The guests come from far and wide tonight: from Australia - the country which currently doesn't hold the Ashes, Russell Crowe; from the United States Reginald D. Hunter and from the country which does hold the Ashes, the rascal himself - Dizzee.

A moribund line-up of guests this week, including one I've never heard of and an overated band. Here's to next week...

Actors Warwick Davis and Nick Frost park themselves on the Ross sofa this week to plug stuff, or just to shelter from the unseasonably gloomy weather. There's room for Alexandra Burke, too. Music from Ellie Goulding.

Comedian Ross Noble and bromidic football person Gary Lineker join Jonathan for chat and various insults. The King of Suits also talks to Mary Portas, the Queen of Shops. Music from Gorillaz.

A funny bloke, an actor bloke and an actress bloke join Jonathan for chat and quite possibly - if last week is anyting to go by - fisticuffs.

It's that time of year when a token tennis player arrives to talk about, well, tennis. LL Cool J saunters in, two bargain basement Eastenders replace Christina Aguilera and there's music from Eminem.

Comedian Frankie Boyle and actress Katherine Heigl make their first appearances on the show. Music from Diddy.

If you are under the age of 10, you might well enjoy people from the all singing and sadly, all dancing Glee. For the grown-ups, there's Tom Hardy, Al Green and the Scissor Sisters.

Coming soon...

The shy and retiring Robin Williams, the average-looking Elle Macpherson and the not very funny Tim Minchin are Jonathan's guests this week. Three fibs in one synopsis - a record? Music from the colourless Mark Ronso

Sir Tom Jones makes his sixth appearance on the Ross sofa. If he can squeeze two more in before the curtain falls for the final time, he'll equal Ricky Gervais. Jimmy Carr makes his sixth appearance on the Ross Sofa. If he can squeeze two more in before the curtain falls for the final time, he'll equal Sir Tom Jones.

After 9 years and 18 series, Friday Night with Jonathan Ross comes to an end. David Beckham; Mickey Rourke and Jackie Chan are the final guests. Music from Roxy Music.
