This new BBC news quiz brings a nice change of pace for contestants who are used to reading up on current events the week before an appearance. Ed is looking forward to a few days of peace and quiet in splendid isolation in preparation for his episode of The Bubble, which can be seen on BBC 2 on Friday, February 26th.

Ed’s back from Canada soon after a successful round of gigs and sporty carry-on.

He’ll be recording Mock the Week on Tuesday, February 16th, and the show can be seen on BBC 2 on Thursday the 18th of February.

Ed will be appearing alongside Stewart Lee, Ian Stone, Dan Antopolski, Ivor Dembina, and more at War on Want’s 2010 Comedy Gig at Shepherds Bush Empire on March 4, 2010.

This is a great cause and promises to be an excellent night’s comedy. We urge you to get tickets soon. You can get them here.

Tickets cost £20 for reserved seating and £15 unreserved.

Good news for people who want to listen to Ed’s comedy, but get tired looking at him walking up and down all the time: you can now buy Different Class from many outlets as an MP3 album.

Here it is on eMusic, look.

And here it is on 7Digital.

And there are more.

Happy new year, all.

You can see Ed on Live at the Apollo on BBC 1 on Christmas Eve. Times vary across the BBC regions, so check your local listings (but it should be about 22.30 or so).

Ed will also be on Celebrity Mastermind on BBC 1 on Jan 1, 2010 at 7.30pm. He’ll be answering questions on the Star Trek movies. See if you can beat him, why don’t you?

This video has SWEARS and CURSES in it, and should only be viewed in the presence of people who are okay with SWEARS and CURSES.

If you are such a person, we hope you enjoy this.

In January and early February 2010, Ed will be in western Canada for Snowed In Comedy, with Dan Quinn, Glenn Wool, and Craig Campbell. The gigs are specifically designed to tie in with skiing and snowboarding, so if you love your winter sports (or you’ve been dragged along against your will) and you want to see some live comedy along the way, then these are the gigs to seek out.

Ed will be appearing on The Graham Norton Show on Monday, December 14th on BBC One alongside Robert Downey Jr. and Will Young.
