Episode 3

Episode 3 of 6

This week's stories bashed, mashed and moulded into sketches, one-liners and vox-pops. Trying to make sense of it all is new host, Angela Barnes.

BBC Radio 4 Extra's topical sketch show Newsjack continues its 16th series with brand new host Angela Barnes.

Irreverent and satirical, Newsjack is the scrapbook sketch show written entirely by the Great British public, and then bought to life by a revolving cast of sketch performers.

This week's cast features Luke Kempner, Alison Thea-Skot and George Fouracres.

In this edition we eavesdrop on Donald Trump and Theresa May's correspondence, have Labour call on a past leader for help and even hear Angela face some stiff competition as host...

The programme continues to be a showcase for new comedy writing: anyone can submit material (sketches and one-line jokes) - these can be submitted every week of the six week run.
