A topical comedy panel quiz show based on the news of the week. Fronted by a chairman and two teams with a permanent captain each, the show invites two guests to cast a jaundiced eye over the week's news, which results in a fast flow of anarchic, hugely... entertaining, spontaneous - and often subversive - wit and humour. Guests represent the worlds of politics, comedy, show business and journalism and are often themselves particularly newsworthy participants.
