"Lenny Henry would be good. I'd like to see Eddie Murphy do it really, get him out of retirement. Eddie has been settling down but we need him back," Bruno told BANG Showbiz. Bruno is currently working with Heineken on their Brewing Good Cheer campaign which aims to reduce social isolation over the Christmas period.
