Episode 3
Nicholas Parsons returns for his 50th year and the 78th series of the iconic panel show. His guests this episode are Paul Merton, Ross Noble, Fern Britton and Gyles Brandreth.
Just A Minute is 50 years old this year! Nicholas Parsons has been hosting since day one and presides over an all-star panel: Paul Merton, Ross Noble, Fern Britton and Gyles Brandreth.
The panel have to talk on a given subject for sixty seconds without repetition, hesitation or deviation. Can Paul tell us much about sardines? What is Fern's ideal bike ride? How much does Gyles know about Marie Antoinette and how does Ross feel being a fly on the wall?
PLUS one of our panellists talks for a full minute - which one? You'll have to tune in to find out...
Hayley Sterling blows the whistle and it was produced by Matt Stronge.
Just A Minute is a BBC Studios production.
