About this listen

If you have an appetite for sharp satirical comedy blended with vintage news items, be sure to sample these 14 archive episodes of BBC Radio 4's long-running panel show, chaired by Barry Took, Simon Hoggart and Sandi Toksvig.

This latest smorgasbord of editions, all first broadcast between 1980 and 2012, has for its subjects such delicacies as the Royal family, 'boisterous' TV presenters, Oscar acceptance speeches, pop stars, Teletubbies, the EU referendum, the 2010 financial crash, super-injunctions, ice cream vans and much, much more.

Joining regular panellists Alan Coren, Richard Ingrams, Jeremy Hardy and Andy Hamilton are a highly palatable collection of guest players including Gillian Reynolds, John Wells, Alan Rusbridger, Gay Search, Andrew Rawnsley, Clive Anderson, David Aaronovitch, Francis Wheen, Oliver Pritchett, Linda Smith, Mark Steel, Michael White, John Sergeant, Fred MacAulay, Rachael Heyhoe-Flint, Kirsty Wark, Carrie Quinlan, David Mitchell, Matthew Parris, Susan Calman, Bob Mills and many more.

Included among the programmes is a two-part News Quiz of the Year from 1980/81, as well as a 2000 edition recorded at the BBC Futureworld Exhibition. The original Radio 4 broadcast dates are 27/12/1980, 03/01/1981, 11/02/1984, 28/07/1990, 27/09/1997, 14/03/1998, 26/03/1998, 17/03/2000, 28/04/2000, 05/04/2002, 11/01/2008, 06/11/2009, 22/04/2011 and 29/09/2012.
