Product description
Four series of the satirical radio panel show chaired by Miles Jupp
The News Quiz, 'the finest topical comedy panel game known to radio', has been providing headlines, punchlines, irony and irreverence since it was first broadcast in 1977. In these 33 episodes from September 2015 to October 2016, Miles Jupp takes over at the helm, replacing previous host Sandi Toksvig.
Joining him in the name of news are an esteemed panel of guests including Samira Ahmed, Susan Calman, Chris Addison, Nish Kumar, Steve Lamacq, Jeremy Hardy, Mark Steel, Andy Hamilton, Rebecca Front, Zoe Lyons, Kerry Godliman, Holly Walsh, Francis Wheen and Lucy Porter.
Using their considerable comedic talents, they dissect topics as diverse and diverting as Jeremy Corbyn, the EU referendum, Donald Trump, the Panama Papers, the collapse of BHS, the exit of Sam Allardyce as England manager and The Great British Bake-Off. There's also an entertaining selection of comical cuttings sent in by listeners, read by newsreaders Corrie Corfield, Caroline Nicholls, Neil Sleat, Kathy Clugston, Susan Rae, Diana Speed and Zeb Soanes.
