Joining Jools on the sixth show of the series is St Andrews-raised singer-songwriter KT Tunstall, who plays a couple of songs from her recent album Kin, a major return to form with rousing melodies and a new positive spirit.

From Birmingham, Alabama, the retro-soul stylings of the Stax-influenced St Paul & The Broken Bones, led by the extraordinary vocals of Paul Janeway, with songs from their second album Sea of Noise.

London electro-pop four piece Teleman make their debut on the show with a couple of tunes from their much acclaimed LP Brilliant Sanity.

Also making her debut on the show is Canadian-born singer-songwriter Haley Bonar, who makes piercing, contemplative songs with pop sensibilities. Her latest album Impossible Dream looks at the ways we learn to live within our own skin and try to look back with as little regret as possible.

Making their debut on the show a mere 57 years after they launched - step forward and shimmy 5-piece vocal harmony legends The Temptations, who are lead by original member Otis Williams. Williams's Temps will reprise a couple of their classic hits around Jools's piano.

The Temps are on the eve of a major British tour with fellow Motown legends The Four Tops, who first came together in 1953! The last original member and current leader of The Four Tops Duke Fakir chats to Jools about the quartet's glory years.

Making their TV debut is Let's Eat Grandma, an experimental pop outfit from Norwich consisting of best friends Jenny Hollingworth and Rosa Walton. Singers and multi-instrumentalists, the two teenagers have been making music together since they were thirteen and their music possesses a childlike, eerie, almost unsettling quality, and their debut album I, Gemini has been described as 'a freaky and surreal debut'.

Beyond the Gates

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.

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!
