Just on Hannah Fry, if anyone hasn't seen it, her BBC Prog on her own cancer is a must watch. Deeply personal, but with the mind of a scientist applied, riveting and thought-provoking viewing.
Sounds like a must watch for me. Thanks.Also, Hannah Fry gives her Room 101 suggestions to Paul Merton on BB R4. Listened this morning. She is good value.

Jon Richardson’s somewhat muted performance last week explained?

Who do you think cheated? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-6879...
More seriously, do NO married couples actually try and work through their problems these days? I never see myself getting married. Its just not the commitment it used to be so its irrelevant.

Eh?
You're going to have to explain that one to me.
She's a big cigar aficionado, which I think is gross.You're going to have to explain that one to me.
As it happens I was relieved that she was a panellist rather than the host, and she was funny at times too. Hannah Fry was great- intelligent, quick witted, cheeky glint, the works. Lovely.
The Angela Rayner story had moved on a notch or two after they recorded the show, I think?

I thought she was terrible. Having to touch Paul's arm after every "joke".
I'm watching it for the first time (admittedly the "More" version) and I haven't noticed it, even keeping an eye open for it.Now, perhaps I need to go to Specsavers. However, I did note her delivering a number of jokes without touching his arm. So, on balance, maybe it's not me but you who needs to.

Glenn Moore was quite sharp too.
I haven't sat down to watch it yet, but he was always good value on Mock the Week. I always liked his jokes where he sets up some ridiculous scenario so he can deliver an alliterative wordplay punchline. A quick google for one that springs to mind is
"Well, coming up now on BBC Two, you can use the red button to choose your daytime show: It's either a travel documentary about alcoholic narcoleptic Rabbis on holiday, or a current affairs and arts programme. It's You Snooze You Lose Booze Cruise For Jews or News And Reviews, you choose"
Ok, not sharp as such as that can be memorised. But I like him.
I should go watch the show now and lay off the Saturday wine.
Earlier yesterday I made some comment on the HIGNFY Facebook page damning Jason Manford with faint praise (I called him "tolerable") and he replied that this was the nicest thing someone had said to him online this week.
