Eddie Hearn, Elis James, Kath Merry and Matt Forde join Colin Murray.

Eddie Hearn, Elis James, Kath Merry and Matt Forde fight for punditry points whilst discussing the world of sport and the big stories of the week with Colin Murray.

Sports promoter Eddie Hearn, presenter and comedian Elis James, former GB athlete and sports presenter Kath Merry and comic Matt Forde join Colin Murray for an hour of sporting punditry, humour and entertainment.

Points are awarded for informed comment, wit and passion, but taken away for nonsense 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. There can only be one winner!
