We catch up with our hosts’ latest news and exploits.

Steve Carell
Steve Carell picked up a Golden Globe for his star turn in the US version of the television sitcom, The Office, but it was his role as The 40-Year-old Virgin that established the actor as a leading man on the big screen. He went on to star in Little Miss Sunshine, Evan Almighty, Get Smart, Date Night, and he also voiced wannabe evil genius Gru in the smash hit animated feature, Despicable Me. The American comedy star joins us in studio to discuss life after “The Office” and to tell us about his latest feature, Crazy Stupid Love.
