Full Description
Four sparkling episodes from the 2015 series of the ever-popular topical comedy show - including Sandi Toksvig's last ever show. Since 1977, The News Quiz has been the go-to radio programme for headlines, punchlines and superb satire on current events. In these four episodes, long-standing panellists including Jeremy Hardy and Susan Calman, plus guest players including Samira Ahmed, Fred MacAulay, Lucy Porter and Andy Hamilton, delve into news topics as varied as the threat of a 'Grexit', the re-internment of Richard III, MPs' salaries and the dangers of skinny jeans. In addition, newsreaders Neil Sleat and Corrie Corfield read a selection of humorous press cuttings sent in by listeners. Featuring Sandi Toksvig's final appearance as host, as well as a tribute to Charles Kennedy, these four shows from Series 86 and 87 represent the very finest and funniest comedy from the sharpest and wittiest panellists.
