Before we launch into series five, enjoy some more from Matt Kirshen and Garrett Millerick. This is the first in a short series of specials featuring extra content from our great series four guests.

Matt Kirshen muses on the difference between US and UK comedy – specifically TV scheduling, stand-ups, stunt casting, sitcom scuzziness, and science.

Garrett Millerick ponders why series 7 might not have lived up to fan expectations, how the later novels compare to the shows, the word ‘smeg’, embarrassing fans, quotes, misquotes, and his favourite episodes.

Plus: some brilliant listener emails. 

SO WHAT IS IT?
