Cutting through the fake news, Russell Howard is here to guide you through the fallout of the 2020 US Presidential Election with a special episode of The Russell Howard Hour.

After the votes have been counted, the bell is rung and the fierce battle between Donald Trump and Joe Biden is decided, Russell will be going over the gruesome highlights of their respective campaigns and inviting some special guests to weigh in on the outcome. No matter who wins, it’s not the end of the world… Is it? 

Russell has returned to present his satirical take on global news, politics and stories dominating the cultural zeitgeist with the fourth series of The Russell Howard Hour transmitting on Thursday evenings at 10pm on Sky One and streaming service NOW TV.
