BBC Radio 4 Extra - Newsjack, Series 16, Episode 5

Featuring Kieran Hodgson, James Meehan and Jessica Ransom.

This week's stories bashed, mashed and moulded into sketches, one-liners and vox-pops. Trying to make sense of it all is new host Angela Barnes.

BBC Radio 4 Extra's topical sketch show Newsjack returns for its 16th series with brand new host Angela Barnes. 

Irreverent and satirical, Newsjack is the scrapbook sketch show written entirely by the Great British public, and then bought to life by a revolving cast of sketch performers.

This weeks cast features Kieran Hodgson, James Meehan and Jessica Ransom.

In this edition we undergo a Brexorcism and fire up the lie detector...

The programme continues to be a showcase for new comedy writing: anyone can submit material (sketches and one-line jokes) - these can be submitted every week of the six week run.

Details for submitting material can be found here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00kvs8r
