FOB series six continues to hit the ground running with broadcasting legend and serious quizzer, James O'Brien, who reveals what the shocking truth of happened behind the scenes on his Pointless Celebrities appearance - brace yourself, because the quizzing world will be rocked when they hear James' suspicion of foul play amongst his competitors - could a rematch be the answer?

We also hear what it's like to appear on a quiz show, only to be faced with a teammate who probably isn't on your Christmas card list ... AND James laments not being asked to appear on his favourite quiz show, and possibly being ghosted by its host... perhaps this episode could turn James' fortunes around?

If you want to enjoy the very unique experience of FOB live, then why not join Jenny and Lucy when they appear at this year's Podcast Festival at Kings Place in London! They'll be the usual mix of quiz, prizes and comedy ANNNND .... LES DENNIS is their very special guest!

FOB is BACK for a brand-new series and what a way to kick things off ...

If you're already missing your hot girl summer, then bask in the memory of THIS hot girl summer, when Lucy and Jen took themselves over to the beautiful island of Guernsey to entertain the masses at the lovely venue of St James ... but that's not all folks, because they were joined by a VERY special guest ...stop the clock because it's ANNEKA RICE!

Yes, jumpsuits at the ready, as Anneka joined in the fun and games in front of a packed audience, who were treated to quizzing hilarity, peppered with brilliant anecdotes from Anneka's amazing career ... and plenty of insider gossip-to-boot and now you get to have all this in your ears too! ENJOY and it's great to be back! X

Joining Lucy and Jenny this week is writer and historian Hannah Woods, who you may remember not only for her outstanding performance on Mastermind but also for her incredible performance on Twitter when she faced the predictable nonsense leveled at women who dare to display themselves and their talent on national TV. This leads to a frank and important discussion about how change is long over due in the traditionally male, dominated world of quiz - Hannah also more than covered herself in glory in a quiz about British history, which isn't surprising, as she's written a book on it, which will be out ion 2022 and you can pre-order Rule, Nostalgia: A Backwards History of Britain now.

We also see the welcome return of listener quiz writer extraordinaire, Matt Sole, whose theme will not disappoint the nostalgics amoung us.

Lucy and Jen are here again with a jubilant episode of FOB and much of that jubilation can be attributed to this week's fabulous guest, comedian, actor, and improviser, Ruth Bratt!

As well as starring in hit TV sitcoms such as 'People Just Do Nothing' and 'Man Down' and performing as part of the incredible 'Showstoppers' ensemble, Ruth also LOVES a quiz, whether it's watching one on TV, at a pub quiz, or even making an appearance herself on a celebrity quiz show - she's all about the quiz and has some pretty incredible theatre-based knowledge as you'll hear.

Making a very welcome return this week is the wonderful, listener quiz, specifically one sent in by Matt Sole on a subject close to all the FOB crew's hearts .... Aussie / UK soap connections, so get it in your ears, ya flamin' galah!

This week's episode of FOB was recorded in front of a ready and willing audience in London's glittering Soho and a fair few of them made it up on stage to assist Jenny and Lucy in the quizmania!

And joining the hosts and eager participants was a very special guest in the form of No Such Thing As A Fish and QI's very own, James Harkin!

As well as finding out what he was up to in lockdown (be prepared it WILL make you feel inadequate in your own lockdown activities), James also takes part in some serious quizzing, including going head to head with his fellow Bolton Brainic, The Vixen herself. James also proves to be a more than adept quiz show host when Jenny and Lucy are pitted against each other in FOB's own homage to Blockbusters ... I'l have a P please James ....
