Sky Max’s enduring sports-comedy panel show, A League of Their Own, is back for its 19th season, and they’re not pulling any punches with their guest list. Thursday’s premiere welcomes heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury to the ring, or rather, the studio. One can only imagine the comedic sparring that will ensue when Fury joins the show’s resident quick-witted regulars.

Host Romesh Ranganathan returns to preside over the usual controlled chaos, flanked by team captains Jamie Redknapp and Jill Scott. Micah Richards, a permanent fixture on the panel, will no doubt contribute his trademark blend of sports knowledge and infectious laughter. Joining this already boisterous bunch are TV presenter Maya Jama and comedian Rob Beckett, guaranteeing a lively mix of personalities and banter.

A League of Their Own has become a staple of Sky’s comedy lineup, consistently attracting big names from sports and entertainment. The show thrives on its unique combination of sports trivia, absurd physical challenges, and the undeniable chemistry of its core cast. While the format might be familiar, the unpredictable nature of the celebrity guests ensures each episode offers something new.

A League of Their Own airs Thursday, January 9, 2025, at 9:00 PM on Sky Max.
