    Happy Birthday - S10, Ep 1

    This week's Jenny and Jack examine God's haemorrhoid, otherwise known as Series 10, Episode 1 - historically important for being the first Channel 4, socially distant episode ever to exist.

    Did Daisy May Cooper wet herself from laughing too hard in studio? Did Mawaan Rizwan actually shrink a big thing? Is it even possible to get an egg into a frying pan from a distance? And, most importantly, did Jenny recognise one big prop?

    All of these questions are discussed. Plus, a listener gives a thorough run-down on series 21 contestant star signs, and another writes in to set the record straight on girls kicking yoghurt.

    2026 New Years Treat - Part Two

    Jenny and Jack discuss part two of the 2026 New Years Treat asking the questions no one else has yet asked, such as; what would it be like to holiday with this cast? Is a moth-eaten squirrel exotic? Is it time to stop the 'thing inside a thing' Taskmaster trend?

    And we've had Champion of Champions, but should we follow Sweden in hosting a 'Loser of Losers'? A listener writes in to discuss. Next week we're back to our homework, watching another part two - this time of Champion of Champions 1.
