Summary
Jennie-bashing and speculation on Coogan's PR policy loom large this week. Speaking from personal experience, we also cover scuppered book deals, the faff involved in entering Broadcasting House, and our own 'faecal Dresden'. And that's before we lose it over A Turkey's Journey. And then Greg Dyke's texts. And then Alan's DIY skills. Could listening make this the Greatest Day of your life?
