Hello and welcome to episode 197 of what most people think. It's all going on this week.

0:20.2

It is all going on. We've got local elections. We've got coronations. We haven't got coronations.

0:25.3

We've got one big coronation and it only occurred to me this week. Literally this week that

0:31.4

the reason coronation street was called coronation street was because it was probably named during

0:35.3

a coronation and I think it's a good point to bring in Ian Dail who is looking stunned at my

0:42.5

my naivety on that point. Well you're just playing wrong aren't you because coronation street I think

0:47.6

started in 1962 or 1963 so 10 years after the coronation. Yeah but like a bit there'll be

0:55.0

then and any other sense it must be named. It can't be named after the chicken order. Yeah I don't

1:00.8

think we had coronation chicken then did we. It was a good year in 1962 that was the year I was born.

1:40.4

wood who is chairman of the Defence Select Committee and it was all about Ella Wheelan had the

1:47.4

misfortune to mention Brexit. No I think there was a question somebody saying what the

1:52.4

can you name one benefit of Brexit? Yeah that really original question. So she starts giving an

1:58.4

answer and after about five seconds he interrupts. He says well go on give one benefit then so she

2:03.8

starts to talk again. Well go on I'm waiting. So I had to sort of basically push my hand in his face

2:11.6

and he kept doing it. He kept doing it again and again and again so I got a bit ratty with him after

2:17.0

that. I don't normally sort of do get a bit ratty. I did have one other case last week we did our
