Summary

Richard Porritt, Matt Withers and Cash Boyle return to shine a light on another week in politics.

The trio discuss the looming Brexit deadline and the chances of no-deal, the odds of a man called William Shakespeare being the second to get the Covid vaccine and whether a chicken lasagne is truly a lasagne.

They are joined by film critic Jason Solomons to talk about a new documentary about Shane MacGowan.

And Cash casts her eye over axed Eton teacher Will Knowland and his quixotic attempt to get Parliament to overturn his sacking.
