This week Benedict Cumberbitch (BBC's Sherlock, in case you live under a rock) hosted comedy-news programme Have I Got News For You. As I foreigner I learned two things:

Obviously you know we're suckers for our favourite actors showing up on other programs, soothing us with their incredibly deep, sexy voices and... wait. Wait. I got off track. The point is, Benedict Cumberbatch will be hosting Have I Got News For You on October 14th on BBC1.

In case you're unfamiliar with HIGNFY (like I was) I've done the Googling for you! It is one of those delightful comedy news/quiz shows that are so popular in the UK and that have started eating up all of my evenings because they are the funniest fucking things on television.

Remember when David Tennant hosted Never Mind the Buzzcocks for a Doctor Who/music special? No? I bet you're trying to find it right now, and if not you should be because it was goddamn amazing.

So yes. Cumberbitch, deep voice, funny jokes, maybe some news for you. Be ready to love it, people.
