On the week when the new leader of the SNP was announced, Jemma and Marina pay tribute to the late, great Paul O Grady ( as did Dominic Raab, who rather insultingly got his name wrong in Parliament)

The big news in this episode is the latest sting by Led By Donkeys. MPS FOR HIRE! Hancock, Brady, Williamson and Kwarteng all feature in negotiations which are both grubby, embarrassing, unprofessional an..... entirely legal...

Spare a thought for England captain, Harry Kane. He had to take a call from Rishi Sunak - it's pretty horrendous to listen to and sounds a lot better once Michael Spicer has changed it up. The results are this episode's pudding.
