    Jonathon Ross returns to his popular show Friday Night with Jonathon Ross on 23rd January 2009.

    Wikipedia:  Following a guest appearance by Ross on the The Russell Brand Show broadcast on 18 October 2008, Ross was suspended for 12 weeks without pay by the BBC on 29 October, after a series of answer phone messages were left for 78-year-old actor Andrew Sachs by Russell Brand and Ross, which were broadcast on the pre-recorded show. After little initial interest, a media story about the calls generated a high number of complaints. Brand resigned from the BBC, while Ross was suspended without pay. BBC director general Mark Thompson stated that Ross should take the disciplinary action as a “final warning”. On 21 November 2008 the BBC Trust said that the phone calls were a “deplorable intrusion with no editorial justification”. The trust gave its backing to Ross’s 12 week suspension but recommended that no further action be taken against him.  He is due to return to work on 23rd  January 2009.
