4 female panellists on R4 News Quiz

[WokerThanWoke]

I know there have been more women on it recently, but I think this is a first - this week was Helen Lewis, Desiree Burch, Susan Calman and Kiri Pritchard-McLean.

And I think all female writers too.

It’s interesting that I was half listening to this and didn’t even notice. I think that’s a good thing?

Miles’ script was also written by an all women team.

I was lucky enough to get tickets to the recording and it was an outstanding show. It was also absolutely filthy 🤣

Can I recommend the radio 4 extra version on Monday evening as there was a lot of material that didn’t make the version that was broadcast at 6pm.
🤣

BH I think that is a good thing!

I am so jealous Ali1ce! I’ll definitely check it out.

It’s interesting that I was half listening to this and didn’t even notice. I think that’s a good thing?

I’ve no idea how that posted twice.

I’ll be listening to the extra show on Monday then. I loved the Jeremy Hardy insert by Susan Calman and would like to hear that again.

Political correctness gorn mad innit?

I also heard it and didn’t notice.

It's good.

But the News Quiz is politically correct nonsense.

I heard it yesterday and today and realised today that it was all female apart from Miles Jupp. But the best bit was they didn't mention it. No 'and here's a special all-women-apart-from-Miles' statement. It just seemed normal.

I remember one with all women except Jeremy Hardy. Not just all women, IIRC, all lesbians. Sandi, Susan C, probably Zoe, maybe Sue P. It was fantastic.

There was a great Unbelievable Truth with all women guests a while back too.
