Seemed like about 15 apps and about 4 corrections, but hard to count as they do the apps at intervals through the show.
Thanks John and 3songs - I sent a sketch about the 80mph speed limit and it did involve a spokesperson mentioning the much needed boost it would give to garages and car breakdown services, but it also involved the spokesperson talking VERY FAST!!!

Cheers, it didn't get the biggest laugh of the night though, and I guess it depends on whether they think enough people will have paid attention to the story (Russell Brand being refused entry to Canada).

I'd be pretty sure that was the one, but without the fast talking. Congrats if you get the mail at 5.09pm tomorrow!
The fact they did your Russell Brand Canada Jackapp means they didn't do mine. Hmmm, I wonder if I should be wishing you such luck after all...
Only kidding, hope it gets in. You bastard.
Cheers 3songs, best of luck for tonight!
Don't think I've got anything on this week.
Me neither. Been a shit couple of weeks for me so not expecting anything good to happen today!
