To paraphrase an old showbiz saying, you host Your Face Or Mine twice. Once on the way up, once on the way down. Yet you could hardly say that Jimmy Carr, who co-hosted the original E4 version fifteen years ago is on the way down. If anything he is riding higher than ever with regular TV slots and a sell-out tour. And his new co-host is certainly on the way up. Katherine Ryan is pretty much the go-to name when TV people want a sassy, smart-talking female face. So much for old showbiz sayings then.
