On The Sofa with Colson, Jack and Ben

🎭 Colson’s been dipping his toe into panto whilst filming for This Morning, and brings in a dismal video of him on stage in Woking that says a lot about his future in Pantoland

📺 Jack shares what happened at the premiere of the new Corriedale episode and also talks Corrie going to five nights a week

🎬 Also, we go through the biggest upcoming film releases for 2026 and what’s actually worth sitting down to watch!

The boys kick off 2026 by looking back at the past year with the Big Fat Quiz of On The Sofa for 2025, including the film they rated lowest on the pod. How well have you been listening?

Plus, they pick a pod resolution – is a rebrand to On The Bookshelf on the cards?

And they share the first Trick of the Trade and Commission Impossible of the New Year!

🩸 Jack’s been to the Corrie Christmas do and what morsels does he have to throw to the hungry gossip seagulls? In all honesty, not very much.

What do we make of the final Stranger Things series? The boys do their power poses, what would their songs to snap out of a coma be, and do the actors all look a bit bored by this stage?

🤬 Ben’s been doing a lot of big film watching so that he’s ready for his BAFTA voting, so expect a film of the year level review. 

And what’s so significant about this proposed Netflix takeover of Warner Bros? If you want to know which panto role Colson is desperate to play, then this is the episode for you.

👃 This is the scent podcast now. If you know nothing about your smellies then here’s where you can become an expert as Jacky P gives his Christmas perfume lowdown. 

We also have a reely good Commission Impossible submitted by one of Colson’s pals. And what did you lot at home make of Wicked 2 Broomstick Boogaloo?

Big news! Bounties have left Celebrations! Stop the clocks. But switch on the lights, because Jack’s been telling more porkies in Leyland. 

And would you rather have dragon breath or manipulate water? Plus, can we get hedges onto primetime TV?

⛷️ Ben runs the rule over the new Emma Thompson thriller and Jack’s been watching a horror film which is entirely from the point of view of a dog. 

Arguably of greater note we have a Trick of the Trade which delves into Colson's Spotlight bio.

There’s much excitement in the soap world as the first trailer for Corriedale recently dropped! And it really looks like there’s some big drama. 

Also, what’s the best thing the boys have shared? And Jack pretends his mother-in-law is his wife.

🍜 Back Again Again! Busy one this one as Jack’s got a bruise and there’s some on-location secrets revealed. The boys are worried that Wagamamas will stop their offers because they’ve been rinsing it so much.

Plus they reveal the weirdest fan gifts… and it’s Jack that’s coming out on top. And what would their albums be called? 

Finally Jack claims that the weekend is three days long. Who does he think he is? The King of ...

Colson’s been to see what’s potentially the biggest Hollywood release of the year - Wicked: For Good - but does this one defy gravity and will it be as popular as the last? 

For the love of all that is prairie, will this be the final time that Jack talks about the Yellowstone cinematic universe? And on the topic of the West there’s a new sheriff in town in the form of Billy Bob Thornton?

Plus the boys think up a new TV vehic...

🥸 Big p-ews coming out of York today and Ben’s experienced a real dinner party gamechanger. Also someone at Corrie has bumped Jack’s car. But who? And how would you pass the pod when at Niagara Falls? 

And on top of all that we get another excellent dispatch from our man in New York and Jacky P receives a TV review ban.

Buster Ferrybridge is a name which has been thrown around a fair bit lately. And with good reason. One of the biggest adult entertainers the UK has ever seen. Arguably Yorkshire's most significant cultural export. He has passed into legend. But what is that legend? Well, over on Patreon (www.patreon.com/onthesofa) we're exploring what his life has been like - scandals and all.

Episode 1 - A Boy Called Buster is out now.

🐦 Jack’s been filming the Corrie-Emmerdale quiz and he’s fascinated by Mulhern’s world of Deal Or No Deal. 

Plus, there’s a Top 5 which Colson has a bizarre amount of expertise on - a category in which everything is in fact the same. And there's also time to discover the secrets of the work animal handler.

“It’s dogger mum!”

🏃‍♂️ A huge film watching episode. The new Emma Stone-Yorgos Lanthimos collaboration, Bugonia, as well as The Running Man and a raft of old school classics Colson’s seen on his travels. 

How has Jack’s relationship with his mother-in-law changed since he got married to Hanni? 

Ben gives his thoughts on One Battle After Another and asks as we just not seeing many really good films any more?

Ben discovers his daughter’s friend is a world champion, we take a trip to a livestock market and someone bids to meet The Pope. 

Plus, Colson speaks of a film about a happy ham and would the boys be blocked from doing jury service?

🍑 Colson's back from his hols, and we greet his return with a very important question: what could the boys put up their bums? But pure smut is not what we do on the podcast, because it's smut mixed with other chats of a cleaner variety.

In less bum-based discussions strangers are paying Colson’s bill, I’m A Celeb is back and Ben reveals that he nearly became the lead on a massive American sitcom!

🧟‍♂️ Guillermo del Toro’s new Frankenstein is out now but what did Jack and Ben make of the Mexican’s take on a horror classic? But for all of the money spent on prosthetics and make up, is Jacob Elordi simply too good looking as such an icon? 

Also in Commission Impossible Ben builds a pitch to the TV execs.

🐕 While Colson’s away the boys will play - and read through Colson’s script very slowly. Jack’s done what every husband dreams of doing by going to Chatsworth House. We also go behind the scenes of the Corrie Star Tours and find out what their favourite kids films are.

Plus there’s a couple of belting emails about being on-set with Springsteen and we again ask “who is our biggest big dog listener?”
