The News Quiz: Stop Press! Audiobook (Free)

The News Quiz, ‘the finest topical comedy panel video game known to radio’, continues to be providing headlines and punchlines because it first aired in 1977, and spawned the hit television panel video game Have I Got News FOR YOU PERSONALLY. These four episodes see the plucky panellists, including Alan Coren, Andy Hamilton, Phill Jupitus and Jeremy Hardy, tackling the largest news tales (and some of the tiniest) using their inimitable wit and knowledge. With guest stars such as for example Clive Anderson, Jo Brand, Phil Hammond and Carrie Quinlan, they encounter questions on a variety of topics, from Tony Blair, Gordon Dark brown, Iraq and the NHS to baffled hedgehogs, feisty feminine chimps, Jose Mourinho’s doggie and the stunning discovery that mice don’t like cheese. Sandi Toksvig is at the helm, whilst newsreaders Harriet Cass, Corrie Corfield and Rory Morrison read an array of the funniest cuttings. So sit back and revel in the shows of 2006 and 2007 from this clever, silly and satirical video game display, distilled by the most effective and wittiest commentators.
