Summary
Monday 27th April 2026 - Distraction - Rich doesn’t let exhaustion stop him bringing you all the news that matters - no prizes for guessing today’s top stories. Though it may not be what the lame stream media is concentrating on.
Tuesday 28th April 2026 - What BP Do With Their Profits - Rich and Ally are back again with all the big news stories. Today, record profiteering from BP, from a war they didn’t pay for and what that means for democracy to the chagrin of feudal kings. It’s a very clever show, but we’re not going to tell you why. If you’re actually clever you’ll understand it without having to have it explained to you.
Thursday 30th April 2026 - Truncated Due To Chicken Pox - the news is coming in thick and fast, Rich is back on the telly, the Universe might end before that and Herring junior needs to be picked up from school. This never happened to John Craven.
Friday 1st May 2026 - Rings of Uranus - Rich and Ally discuss some amazing space news in the first Newsround of the month, but the last one in the week.

Well, Richard, I think you found your audience. Um, that's very rude, uh, Ali, and I apologize to my many fans, many. Well, it depends what you count as many. Five, well, that's quite a lot, isn't it? More than you've got? I don't think so. I think I've got... Not on the Tudel watching this than me, not you. Um, uh, yeah, look, um, I...
