BBC Radio 4 - The News Quiz, Series 76, Episode 8

Jeremy Hardy, Phill Jupitus, Rick Wakeman and Miles Jupp debate the big stories.

Satirical review of the week's news, chaired by Sandi Toksvig. Jeremy Hardy, Phill Jupitus, Rick Wakeman and Miles Jupp debate the big stories of the week.

The Times, The Tax Trial and the Balance in the Boardroom: Sandi Toksvig hosts Radio 4's long running panel game in the week that the Times was forced to apologise for email hacking, Harry Redknapp is acquitted of tax evasion and tipped for the England manager job, and David Cameron calls for greater gender equality in the boardroom. In deference to this, the all-male panel of Phill Jupitus, Rick Wakeman and Miles Jupp join series regular Jeremy Hardy, and Rory Morrison reads the news.

Produced by Lyndsay Fenner.
