Dr Sharon Lockyer The live comedy industry is worth around £1bn annually to the UK economy, yet it doesn't get included in government conversations about the arts. As a result, it doesn't receive the financial support that other arts forms routinely get. To understand why, and to explain the wider impact of live comedy on society, Matt is joined by Dr Sharon Lockyer from Brunel University. Comedy. It's a serious business.

At the end of last year, myself, Richard Herring and Mark Steel sat down to have a frank, raw, funny and open conversation about something that has affected us all - cancer.

Toby Perkins Toby won his Chesterfield seat for the fifth time at the recent general election. But how did he retain his seat throughout Labour's darkest years when colleagues around him were losing theirs? One of the most likeable MPs in the Commons was a Shadow Minister but didn't get appointed to the frontbench after the election. He talks openly and honestly about the mixed feelings he has about Labour finally forming a government, but not being a minister in it. A massive football fan, Toby also reveals which football manager he thinks he'd most be like if he chairs the Environmental Audit Committee.
