Summary

All fourteen fantastic episodes of Just a Minute from 2022

Celebrating its 55th year on the air, the panel game that rewards those who can talk the hind leg off a donkey returns for two more sparkling series. Sue Perkins, now firmly established as host, is back in the chair, inviting the celebrity panellists to speak for 60 seconds without hesitating, deviating from the allotted subject or repeating themselves.

Taking up the challenge are an assortment of chatterbox comedians including Dane Baptiste, Paul Merton, Zoe Lyons, Gyles Brandreth, Shazia Mirza, Lucy Porter, Ria Lina, Jayde Adams and Daliso Chaponda. As ever, they're faced with topics ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous - among them My Favourite Kardashian, She Sells Sea Shells, Nosey Neighbours, The Ukulele, Kendal Mint Cake and The Art of Seduction.

So join them for more marvellous, magical, mirth-filled minutes, as they compete to find out who has the biggest gift of the gab. Seconds out, let battle commence...

As Strong As Ever

After the death of the great Nicholas Parsons,many people wondered if Just A Minute would die with him. He was so synonymous with the show, the idea of someone else in charge felt truly unsettling.
The decision to give the job to Sue Perkins, though, has been an absolute master stroke! It has infused the show with a whole new energy as Ms Perkins does things unashamedly in her own unique style, while still staying true to the way Nicholas, who was a good friend, approached HIS chairmanship.
The result is both focussed AND chaotic at the same time, which was always JAM at it’s best.
I think I can safely say that the show is in good hands and has a lot of gas left in the tank!
