Summary

Mark is joined by comedian Esther Manito, along with Elliot Steel, as he tries to make sense of the 40 minute mark – spending cuts for the elderly and Elliot’s views on why Mark gets overwhelmed choosing soap. Plus, Mark overhears a woman in a cafe who is concerned about the scrapping of the winter fuel allowance – and an exclusive Bible reading from Russell Brandiloquent.
