Just back from the record. The sketches as I can recall:

David Cameron answerphone
John mcdonnell's nan
Drug horses
Sports direct football team
Weird dog breeds
Sexting MPs
Wedding in club
Alastair Campbell strategies
Trump distracting at rally
Top gear producers
Ninja interview
Museum museum
School of failure
80s thief

Hope some of those ring a bell! None of mine but had a one liner read out.

I shouldn't read these things. I did a school of failure sketch and now my hopes are too high.

It had Ed Miliband showing prospective parents round a school dedicated to total failure. Nick Clegg teaching, etc. Really funny sketch, well done if it was yours!

As for the Cameron's answerphone it was Nish on the phone to a pre-recorded message talking about how good [Newsjack] was.

It doesn't sound like mine, but here's hoping they just did a bit of re-write.

Thank you letting us know what sketches were used!

None of mine, so here's hoping for a oneliner!

Hope springs eternal!

Good luck everyone!

No, that doesn't sound like my handy work either

No email for me this week!

Has anyone else had any luck?

No email for me this week, honestly thought I had a great one liner:

The kennel club is under fire after declaring a German shepherd, with short hind lends and a sloping back, best in breed at Crufts. When asked if more stringent guidelines should be put in place the shepherd said "Nine. Das ist gut"

Never mind!

Ha! Well I'd have put it in! Not that that's any consolation...

I got the good email - first one of the series so better late than never!

Excellent!! Well done! Glad at least one of us got something on!

I've got something on, presumably a oneliner as my sketch effort wasn't strong or much like anything listed by jabashe.

Well I struck out after 4 solid series of credits. End of an era, and a start of a new era next Newsjack

It's been a tough series to crack, so well done JonT and Chris! Looking forward to a listen later. Cheers all you fellow newsjackers - until the next time Wave

Wedding in club

Thanks Jabashe & well done to you & anyone else who got in or close

I got the good e mail
And I'm hoping it's the sketch above rather than a one liner
Or even both! Why not be greedy, it's the last show!

Congratulations Steve! And Exe Chris and JonT (and also Coiledslinky!)

Great show - loved the wedding sketch!

We didn't get anything in the show this series but still very happy indeed with a sketch that was 'recorded but cut' last week.

Looking forward to trying again next series! :D
