Jonathan Ross set to review films again

Jonathan Ross is reportedly set to work on a movie review show for ITV1, just two years after losing his film job at the BBC.

The film fan funnyman will shoot a pilot for Jonathan Ross' LoveFilm Night with his production company Hot Sauce next month.

An insider tells The Sun, "He's really excited about this. He loves film and he knows so much. He doesn't want this just to be for movie nerds, he wants it to appeal to everyone.

"It will see him do stunts like send people out to try out top movie chat up lines and see if they work. It could be huge."

Ross inherited BBC's long running weekly movie show from Barry Norman when it was called Film 1999 - and presented it until his contracted ended with the network. He was replaced by Claudia Winkleman.

Couldn't they find a younger presenter with a fresh perspective?

Good because I really like JR not sure Claudia can fill his shoes. Didn't see much of Barry Norman so can't comment but am sure JR was a good replacement.

have you got a grandfather? Would you be happy for him to be humiliated in front of millions? Have you got a daughter? Would you like the same for her?

Jonathan Ross should have been sacked for the abuse and humiliation he caused Mr.Sachs. I think he is an ignorant no talent fool. That fine presenter Angus Deayton lost his presenting job over a purely private misdemeanour. Bring Angus back with a full apology and sack the fat chump Ross
