Kath Merry, Ivo Graham, Caroline Barker and Elis James join Colin Murray.

Colin Murray acts as judge and jury as Kath Merry, Ivo Graham, Caroline Barker and Elis James fight for punditry points whilst discussing the sporting stories of the week.

Former GB athlete and Olympic bronze-medallist Kath Merry, broadcaster Caroline Barker & comedians Elis James and Ivo Graham join Colin Murray for an hour of sporting punditry.

Points are awarded for informed comment, wit and passion, but taken away for drivel and answers lacking in conviction.

In the final round, the top two points scorers go head-to-head in 'Defend the Indefensible' where they must both defend a statement however ludicrous or distasteful for twenty seconds.
