Welcome to another exciting edition of Plank of the Week, and I can tell you, they come around very fast because there is so much plankery out there. There's been football, there's been politics, there's been international issues, there's been all sorts of things going on. And I'm delighted to say that today, we welcome back Mr Russell Quirk for the first time, I think, Russell,

since you provided this with these rather splendid plank of the week mugs.

And I'm glad to see you actually got some left. Thank you. Well, Chuck's been trying to sell them all

off at the back end of the building. We're lucky we managed to save three. Emma Webb is here as well. Thank you very much for joining us. As ever, I would like to also introduce the new plank of the week, which I'm happy to say has been supplied to us by a keen viewer called Charles Head,

who sent me this and said it's a plank made out of real wood. He's got two sides to it. the correct font for the show. And he says that it could be placed on the interview desk as a trophy to be awarded to the plank of the week.

It's a vintage brass stand.

I mean, he's really gone to town this guy. Charles, it's brilliant.

And he says, please keep creating great content.

We need you guys at Talk Radio.

So thank you, Charles.

Very much indeed.

Very much appreciated, and it will have pride of place in front of me for the rest

of the show. So, Emma, why don't we kick off with your first plank of the week? It's a charity

called Population Matters, who have given an award to Harry and Megan for their environmental

decisions who not have more than two children. Isn't that great? And they've awarded them the equivalent in dollars of £500 to give to a charity.

That won't go far in their house.

But the reason why this is Plankish is because I'm not sure given the fact that Megan is 39,

that their decision is an entirely environmental one.

Well, I think you're probably right,

because as we probably would have thought,

they're not going to have any more children.

But, you know, as people say, accidents do happen.
