What do Guinea Pigs test on? This and more answered by the very funny Milton Jones as he continues to “bestride the globe as an expert in his field, with no ability whatsoever”. Lots of very bad (but good, if you know what I mean) puns, generally quite clever.

Like Have I Got News For You (back when it was funny, with a bit more intelligence, and without the visuals), The News Quiz has just started up again. Sandi Toksvig (her off Call My Bluff) asks the questions with Alan Coren (him off Call My Bluff) and other special guests doing the answering. Bob Holness (the other “him off Call My Bluff”) is yet to make an appearance.

Dirk Gently’s Detective Agency (this one has a real website!) started tonight. I haven’t listened yet, but have been looking forward to it for a while. For those who don’t know, it’s based on a book by Douglas Adams (he wrote The Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy), which describes itself as a “detective-ghost-horror-whodunnit-time-travel-romantic-musical-comedy-epic” and it’s about as confusing as such a description would suggest.
