Lot 1

Spend an evening with Jonathan Ross and Friends

You and a guest will enjoy the chance to go backstage into the Green Room and have a drink prior to the filming of Friday Night with Jonathan Ross. This is not the room that goes live on national TV but what the artists use prior to going on set. You will then be invited to see the show and go backstage once again after the show has finished around 9pm, with a chance to meet the house band - 4 Poofs and a Piano. Please be aware that not all the guests can stay after the show for a drink as they may have other work commitments. On the chosen date, the winner needs to be at BBC Centre by 6 p.m.
