Summary
After a very quick diversion round rats learning to drive this week’s episode begins with a debate over farmers and inheritance tax – a tax dodge for the affluent or a hit to hard working farmers? Giles leans on his knowledge of the French Revolution and his own experience of tax ‘manoeuvring’.
Zoe Ball is stepping down from the Radio 2 breakfast show. Is it really to spend more time with her family or is there more to it than meets the eye? Could the North Koreans be involved...?
A possible tip for Apple Inc – admit you were wrong then make more money.
And lastly, by eck! What a repertoire of accents. Sadly, not all are allowed past the censor.
