Challenging Radio 4's satirical stalwarts The Now Show and The News Quiz must be an intimidating prospect. However, impressionist Rory Bremner has been given the chance to go toe-to-toe with Toksvig and Co with the return of his late-night topical satire series.

The programme includes Bremner quizzing a number of "informed guest commentators", offering the incisive satirist the chance to prove he is so much more than a one-line impressions jukebox.
