Thesre's someone for all sorts of comedy tastes on this week's edition of Richard Osman's House of Games, which features Jessie Cave, Simon Hickson, Ayesha Hazarika and AJ Pritchard.

Jessie Cave is probably best known for playing Lavender Brown in the Harry Potter films, but comedy fans will know her for her various acclaimed, autobiographical stand-up shows. Cave is an intriguing figure, funny and brutally honest, although I don't know how much of that will come across in House of Games as some of the things she has said onstage are not really suitable for teatime viewing.

Jessie Cave was also recently seen on TV in the ITV2 sitcom Buffering written by Iain Stirling and Steve Bugeja.

Cave's real-life partner and father of her children is also a comedian – Alfie Brown has given us quite an insight into their relationship onstage too - and if anything he is even more candid than Cave.

There is more traditional family friendly comedy here from Simon Hickson, who everyone will know as half of the legendary duo Trevor and Simon. Will he be swinging his pants on the BBC quiz? 

And Ayesha Hazarika is a popular columnist and highly respected political journalist but back in the day she was also a stand-up comedian. It's clearly where all the best people start out.

Dancer and reality TV star AJ Pritchard, as far as I know, has not done stand-up, although his brother, Love Island heart-throb Curtis Pritchard, did have a crack at it on the C4 show Stand Up and Deliver.

The quartet will be competing for the House of Games wheelie luggage, or will they be tempted by the House of Games robe, coasters or reusable coffee mug, which is brand new for this series? I'm not saying the prizes are a bit naff, but there has been a trend for prize-winners to give their prizes away to losing contestants...

Richard Osman's House of Games, Monday, November 29 - Friday, December 3, BBC Two, 6pm.
