UKIP reports Have I Got News For You to the police
UKIP says comments made about Nigel Farage on Have I Got News For You may hinder his chances of electoral success, thus breaking election broadcasting laws.
British Comedy Guide, 30th April 2015This is the episode in which Jeremy Clarkson was set to return fire on his erstwhile employers.

[actually Stephen Mangan] - will have plenty to talk about. In JC's absence, Miles Jupp and Camilla Long will be picking up the slack alongside Merton and Hislop, who must have been hoping for some sort of Angus Deayton-style valedictory humiliation.
