The show brings together Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker as its regular presenters, delivering a light‑hearted look at recent events. It’s framed as a weekly roundup, where the trio guides the audience through the most noteworthy happenings of the past seven days. In each episode the hosts sit down with a guest to add a fresh perspective to the comic recap. This instalment features actor Brian Cox and singer Marcus Mumford, both of whom join the panel to comment on the headlines and cultural moments that have dominated the news cycle.
