Episode 2
Nicholas Parsons tests the verbal dexterity of Paul Merton, Marcus Brigstocke, Rebecca Front and Gyles Brandreth.
Just A Minute is back for its 81st series and this second episode features Paul Merton, Marcus Brigstocke, Rebecca Front and Gyles Brandreth.
As ever, the panel are tasked with talking on a given subject for sixty seconds without repetition, hesitation or deviation. This week, a subject that Gyles somewhat tenuously manages to link to this weekend's royal wedding, Rebecca talks sharks and there's a minor contretemps between Marcus and Paul about travelling to the moon.
Hayley Sterling blows the whistle and the producer is Richard Morris.
Just A Minute is a BBC Studios production.
