Lead Balloon: BBC Two

Lead Balloon: BBC TwoJack Dee returns tonight at 9.30 on BBC Two, as Rick Spleen in the second series of the critically acclaimed comedy Lead Balloon.

Rick’s back and, as he will tell you, he’s on the way up: his career is going from strength to strength and he’s never been so popular. In other words, he’s still the same old self-deluded liar.

In tonight’s opening episode, Rick appears as a “Celebrity Oracle”, on day-time quiz show Trick Or Treat. Meanwhile, back at home, trouble is brewing as Magda (Anna Crilly), his surly Eastern European help, has finally handed in her notice.
