Anyone of a sensitive disposition should avoid this episode, which features some very unlikely characters (AKA the usual presenting team), some spectacularly bad acting and some genuinely unforgivable regional accents.
We don't just debate the hot topics of the moment, on The Placemat we come up with practical solutions. How do we help the British public to overcome its distaste for government corruption and cronyism? The answer that's been staring us in the face is to celebrate it properly with a National Dido Harding Day. Also guaranteed to improve the nation's wellbeing is our proposal for an updated version of It's a Royal Knockout with a special guest appearance from HRH Prince Andrew - probably not suitable listening for teenage girls.
We also start a serious debate about primary care networks (PCNs), but luckily we run out of time before it has a chance to get underway.
Our special guest this week is one of the country's most highly respected GPs Dame Clare Gerada, who tells us why general practice needs to be more sexy, gets a bit cross with Julian and shares her recipe for spaghetti omelettes, the comfort food that ICSs everywhere are talking about.
Plus all your favourite regular features, including Dr Pete Turton, who tells us about his personal struggle with electoral dysfunction and, of course, another very fine Virtue Signal of the Week.
And however tempting it is to stop listening after the first few minutes, hang on until the end for the return of our talented house rapper, Hurricane Ceasar (sic) who has produced another musical gem for your listening pleasure.
