Labour party peer Baroness Dame Joan Bakewell is set to appear on BBC's Have I Got News For You next Friday, April 5.

Bakewell, who's enjoyed a long career in the media - working as the BBC Television's arts correspondent and author of the series My Generation and Taboo - has appeared on the show once before in 1992, and commented 'Exposing myself to the ridicule and mockery of Hislop and Co... can't wait!'.
