The People Have Spoken

Fully booked

The People Have Spoken, but what will they say? A new topical comedy series has landed on BBC Radio 4, hosted by Ian Smith (The News Quiz, Live at the Apollo), and we're taking the temperature of the nation in silly season.

Join us for this recording for a chance to be part of our audience/focus group. Ian and a coterie of comedian friends will be talking the big questions of the week, and posing some to the audience.

Have you ever tried to nick your boss' job? Written a resignation letter that slags off your whole team? Or worn shorts that are a bit too short when on a run? Then we want to hear from you.

Expect laughs, insight, and bewilderment at the state of the world.
