About this programme
5/11. The comedy news quiz celebrates a historic landmark - 10 years since the first guest host took the hot seat following Angus Deayton's departure in October 2002 - a `short-term' experiment that has endured to this day. Homeland actor Damian Lewis is in the chair for a fifth time, while Merton and partner-in-mirth Ian Hislop are joined by Spinal Tap and Simpsons actor Harry Shearer and UKIP leader Nigel Farage, hoping to wring as many laughs as they can from the week's headlines.
