Iain is joined by guest presenter Ayesha Hazarika for one week only, while Jacqui suns herself in Spain. They begin by asking if Amber Rudd can survive as Home Secretary and then discuss the ‘bromance’ between Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron. It’s left Iain feeling positively queasy. Ayesha previews her new book about Prime Minister’s Question Time, and the reveals what she knows about ‘happy endings’ at health farms. Possibly our funniest, but definitely the smuttiest episode yet. Not for people of a nervous disposition…
