Damon Albarn, Emeli Sande, LoneLady
Jools Holland returns for a new series at his musical home, Helicon Mountain, in south London. To commence proceedings, Jools chats to not one but two special guests. Returning with a new solo album is the multitalented Damon Albarn, who will also perform a track from The Nearer the Fountain, More Pure the Stream Flows. Also, chart-topping, Brit-winning, MBE-honoured Scottish singer-songwriter Emeli Sande comes to tell Jools why she loves The Fugees, who are about to return to the live stage for the first time in many years. Emeli also chats about her new music, and how it marks a new era of creative freedom for her.
Making her debut on the show is Julie Campbell, aka LoneLady, filmed at Brunswick Mill in her hometown of Manchester. She performs a track from her third studio album, Former Things, an album that was created on electronic sequencers, synths and drum machines in a basement bunker beneath London's Somerset House and offers an ode to the lost golden age of childhood and youth.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the #1 show in late-night. Featuring bandleader Jon Batiste with his band Stay Human, the Emmy Award-nominated show broadcasts from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. He talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology, and more. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer, and writer of The Late Show on Sept. 8, 2015.
Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and lest known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Before joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed The Colbert Report, which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one-third of the time. Good luck, Bill!
