Is the Jaguar badge actually referred to as a 'growler'? I know the bonnet mascot is a 'leaper', but that's not as funny.
That's what I thought as well.

In hindsight maybe it's the bonnet mascot that's known as the "Leaper"?

+1, had to give up watching sound levels varying up and down and sometimes mumbling

No use putting subtitles on they are not in sync, why it is recorded?

Disappointing as I enjoy the programme

I quite like her....and I have found her attractive since watching "Light Lunch" as a student in the 90s...

Paul Merton is back on form.

I like Mel. I think she's good fun, but I do find her moustache a serious distraction.

Good episode. Mel was good, think she got a bit muddled in the middle but held it together. She always comes across as someone who would be great fun to have a few drinks down the battle cruiser with.

Paul M did great and has was good a working with a blind partner to describe what was happening without being condescending

I seen Paul and his wife (Suki?) at the Edinburgh festival this year, they were doing an improv show, it was excellent.

Yet again another outstanding episode, this series has been very good.

Ian’s point about the democrats, sadly very true, disappointment doesn’t cover it.

The guests all enjoyable, the producers seem to have upped the game.

Biden has presumably thought,
"Sod it. If you can't beat 'em, join'em"

It's a race to the bottom.

He deserves it for the post office debacle.
