Was that 400 people sending in, or 400 actual submissions? If the former, that's a high amount this far into the series and, as you say, makes it tough to get something in. Would also be interested to know whether they have commissioned writers and, if so, how many/whether they account for many of the sketches.
Separately, as someone who's been to several of the broadcasts, which type of vox pops would you say are making and missing the cut? Or is it just the ones that go down the best that get broadcast, regardless of whether they are original/clever or a bog-standard pun?
