Show two goes out in a matter of hours so we thought we'd show you a little more of what happens behind the scenes at the studio. Let us know what you think!

If you have any questions you would like us to ask Russell write a comment and we'll do our best to film the responses and post them up here. Enjoy the show later! **TOTAL PLUG** Remember 10:30 on Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Three!

Death by Biscuits

Tris Cotterill | 15:58 UK time, Wednesday, 28 October 2009

Thanks for all the stuff you have been sending us for the show. Remember if you send something in and it gets used you might even get a mention at the end of the show as with last week - watch their moment of glory on

For this week we asked you on Twitter to send in photos of 'DEATH BY BISCUITS' which in case you need any clarification is a crime scene pic of you/friend, being killed by a biscuit or having been killed by biscuit (we wouldn't want to make it too easy for you all!). As with the first show we've been loving your work! Some of you have way too many biscuits at home!

In an Art Attack style we have included some of our favourites in our Good News gallery:

from @mybrightidea dbb_4.jpg

We are going to be asking for your help throughout the series so please keep up the good work! Remember to watch Thursday 10:30, Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Three to see if any of these made it to the final show.

Hope you all enjoyed the show

Tris Cotterill | 16:02 UK time, Friday, 23 October 2009

Hope you all enjoyed the show last night! Thanks to @gregmatt @wr0b @andrew_baran for sending in photos of the funny place names, and also to everybody else who went out and took pics.

f_gurn_wr0b.jpg long_load_gregmatt.jpg queen_camel_gregmatt.jpg wetwang_andrew_baran.jpg We're going to be asking you to send stuff in throughout the series. So if you see something funny in the news you think would work on the show let us know. It could be something you spot a newsreader doing, or something somebody is doing in the background of a news story. It could be a funny headline, or picture from a newspaper. We even want to see any viral videos that have made you chuckle! Either comment on the blog with a link to what you think should be on the show or message us on Twitter () with #goodnews. We want YOU to be a part of the show.

We can't promise to look at all your suggestions but we will do our best because we love hearing from you all so send in! Big big thanks for everything so far

First day in the studio

Tris Cotterill | 16:15 UK time, Thursday, 15 October 2009

It's been a busy week for the Russell Howards Good News team. We recorded our first run-through of the show in the studio with a live audience where Russell got a chance to try out all the gags and sketches he and the team have been working on. The show went really well and everybody is buzzing, we're now getting everything ready for next week's first show! *Cough* Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Three 10:30 Thursday night *Cough*.

set_2.jpg script_1.jpg set_1.jpg The show was just a run through so it's not going to be on TV, but we did take some photos of our set (we can project loads of backgrounds on it). I'll post more from the show next week so keep your eyes out for that. We've noticed that a lot of our twitter/blog readers were there - glad you enjoyed the show!

This week we also got to see our opening titles which we're really excited about. We are making some final tweaks but basically it was done using stop motion animation -taking loads of photos of Russell and animating them - you'll have to wait to see the final product but we'll try to arrange a sneak preview online if we can.

army_2.jpg army_1.jpg Thanks for the stories you have been posting on Twitter and on the blog, remember, if you find something you think should be on the show let us know. We're busy looking through everything you send in and if anything catches Russell's eye, he may well get it in the show.

Tris Cotterill | 17:54 UK time, Monday, 5 October 2009
