Sandi Toksvig chairs four sparkling episodes of the ever-popular topical comedy present THE NEWS HEADLINES Quiz, ‘the finest topical comedy -panel game known to radio’, which has been providing headlines and punchlines since it 1st aired in 1977.

In these four episodes, long-standing panellists including Jeremy Hardy, Fred MacAulay, Mark Steel and David Mitchell take a wry look at the news in every its larger-than-life glory.

With guest players including Bob Mills, Sarah Pascoe, Samira Ahmed, Justin Moorhouse, Elis James and Lucy Porter, they tackle issues as diverse as Scottish Independence, commuter train standards, Russian activities in Crimea, dietary health scares, passport delays and black cab strikes. Also included can be a special Sport Comfort interlude where the players answer questions whilst clocking up kilometers on a fitness bike – with a particular guest appearance by Duncan Goodhew!

Sandi Toksvig chairs proceedings, while Neil Sleat, Kathy Clugston and Diana Speed read an array of humorous cuttings.
