Press
Last in the series of Alistair McGowan and Ronni Ancona's topical comedy. "Satire" wouldn't be the right word for the quickfire overdubs of the week's news footage, since the gags rely on loose puns and casual stereotypes more than swingeing critique. This week, expect an excess of Harry Kane and Gareth Southgate.
