Georgie Ainslie is in the judges chair as her guests aim to gain points whilst discussing the sporting stories of the week. Points are awarded for informed comment, wit and knowledge but taken away for ridiculous observations and answers with lack of conviction. In the final round the top 2 panellists go head to head in 'defend the indefensible' where they must each defend an unpalatable statement for 20 seconds, however outrageous. 
On this weeks show; former Downing Street Press Secretary, writer and Burnley FC fan Alastair Campbell, comedian Bob Mills, broadcaster Eleanor Oldroyd and comedian Ian Moore. Download the podcast - bbc.co.uk/5live.
