Later…with Jools Holland has re-awakened the innovative spirit of The Tube, and the 33rd series will air later this year, along with Jools' New Years Eve show, the exuberant Hootenanny, which celebrates its 16th anniversary.

Other television programmes include: Name That Tune; Don't Forget Your Toothbrush; Beat Route; Jools Meets The Saint; and, in 2002, Jools' History Of The Piano. Jools also conducted the interviews for the definitive Beatles Anthology and the Rolling Stones Biography.

He appeared in the 1997 film Spice World as a 'Musical Director'.

Jools' achievements were formally recognized in June 2003, when he was awarded the OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List.
