A satirical review of the week's news, chaired by Sandi Toksvig.

Sandi Toksvig presents another episode of the ever-popular topical panel show. Guests include Jeremy Hardy, Fred Macaulay and Imran Yusuf.

Welfare, WMD, and Woodland. Sandi Toksvig hosts Radio 4's topical panel show, in the week that Ian Duncan Smith launched his bill to reform the welfare state; Rafid Al Janabi, the "Curveball" informant claimed responsibility for the war in Iraq; and the UK coalition government passed a milestone - their first U-turn. Panellists are Jeremy Hardy, Paul Sinha, Imran Yusuf and Fred Macaulay. Neil Sleat reads the news. Produced by Victoria Lloyd.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
