Jamali Maddix: Facing Racists, Extremists, and What Really Bothers Him

Prue Leith arrives at Joe’s office with a clear mission: to prove that getting older doesn’t mean slowing down. As she promotes her new book Getting Old, the pair explore her evolving mindset on ageing, from whether she’s ever feared it, to how she’s continued to embrace new experiences well into later life. Along the way, Prue shares stories from a life lived fully - including an unexpected experience at an orgy - offers some honest opinions on fashion (including Joe and Jake’s), and keeps Joe on his toes with a mischievous, flirtatious edge. The session builds to a Bake Off-inspired finale, as Joe challenges Prue to try something completely new: taste-testing some of Britain’s most iconic bakes… Featuring Joe Marler (@joemarler17) and Jake Bhardwaj (@jakebhardwajtv) Follow the show on Instagram: @willseeyounowshow Joe Marler Will See You Now is a Platform Media Production.

Alex Brooker arrives at Joe Marler's office with a love of Christmas that borders on obsession - so Joe decides to meet it head-on. Armed with surprises, nostalgia, and a relentless festive onslaught, Joe attempts to tackle Alex’s all-consuming love of Christmas with the most over-the-top exposure therapy yet. But beneath the chaos lies something more personal. Alex reflects on where his love of Christmas began, the worst present he’s ever received, and how his perspective on life - and his disability - has evolved over the years, particularly through his time on The Last Leg. The mission? Not to ruin Christmas… just to prove there might be other things in the year worth getting excited about.

The singing starts before Michael Ball even enters the room - and it only gets more unhinged from there. With life outside the spotlight largely consisting of watching TV, Joe decides it's time for an intervention. Armed with the 'Michael Ball Bag' and some suspiciously low-budget props, he and Jake set out to find Michael a new hobby. Between bursts of musical chaos, Michael reflects on his early days in musical theatre, including the panic attacks that nearly brought his career to an abrupt end. The session builds to a final challenge: a brand new hobby for Michael to try... though Joe can't resist getting involved, with predictably chaotic results.

Fresh off the Soccer Aid 2026 announcement, Sam compares notes with England’s newest goalkeeper, as the pair discuss tactics, teammates, and what they’re most excited for on the pitch.

Joel Dommett arrives at Dr Joe’s office with a reputation as one of the nicest men in showbiz - so naturally Joe decides it’s time to fix that. But beneath the politeness lie stories of childhood retaliation, teenage awkwardness with the ladies, and a surprisingly revealing tale about the least nice celebrity he’s ever met. Joe’s solution? A final exercise designed to bring out Joel’s inner menace - asking the nicest man in showbiz to insult him.

Jamali Maddix enters Dr Marler's office for a session designed to test how bothered he really is - but he quickly proves he might be Joe's most challenging patient yet. The famously unbothered comedian reflects on a childhood spent causing trouble, before diving into his daring documentary work confronting extremists and racists to name a few - moments that reveal a side of Jamali that may in fact be bothered... The session builds to an exercise where Joe tasks Jamali with taking responsibility for something serious, and, as expected, it doesn't quite go to plan.

Obsessed with the past, Josh Widdicombe confronts his nostalgia head-on in Dr Marler’s office. Together, they navigate absurd stories - including David Hasselhoff’s Berlin Wall claim and the cultural significance of Mr Blobby - and attempt blind rankings of the greatest moments in pop culture… with predictably chaotic results. The session takes a surreal turn with a surprise intervention from Josh’s favourite TV doctor, Dr Karl Kennedy, before Joe sets him the ultimate task... meeting 90s Josh and finally breaking up with the past.

Pete Wicks enters Dr Joe’s office carrying a belief he’s had since childhood: that he’s never quite enough. Together, they trace that feeling back to its roots, unpacking the early experiences that shaped Pete’s self-worth and the pressure he’s carried ever since. The conversation widens to modern masculinity, including Pete’s interview with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and what it revealed about being a man today. A shared love of tattoos then leads to a Rorschach-style experiment involving Joe’s body and some highly questionable analysis.

Sue Perkins arrives at Dr Joe’s office carrying the weight of a relentlessly busy life - filming, touring, creating - and leaves having quite literally taken it out on him. As she attempts to unwind, Sue recounts a life lived at full tilt: hallucinogenic trips in South America, being shot at point-blank range, and a brain that never seems to switch off. It’s a whirlwind of stories that makes slowing down feel like an alien concept. Somewhere along the way, Joe realises he’s learning more than he ever has from a guest - even if that education includes alarming facts about ducks and owls and an improv lesson he won't be forgetting for a while. Naturally, the session builds to one of Joe’s boldest exercises yet. Boxing gloves on and with stress triggers stuck to his body, Sue is invited to punch away everything weighing her down, using Joe as a fully willing human punching bag.

Knight of the realm, national treasure and lifelong rule-breaker Stephen Fry enters Dr Joe Marler's clinic for a session that asks one big question: has he overcorrected? Once notorious for his youthful mischief - including a spell in prison and some truly decadent party years - Stephen reflects on how far he’s travelled from troublemaker to establishment favourite, and whether something vital was left behind along the way. The conversation moves from rebellion to royal friendships, as Joe tests just how close Stephen really is to King Charles, before steering the session into deeply questionable territory. What starts as a light-hearted nudge towards naughtiness soon escapes Joe’s grasp entirely, triggering identity fraud, the Celebrity Traitors WhatsApp group, and a message that no one - least of all Joe - was prepared for.
