So your friendly neighbourhood #TheSkewer returns to @bbcradio4 for s10 in a couple of weeks and, as ever, our open door contributor policy is very much in place. We pay ££ for ideas and so on so if you’re a comedy writer or in fact just someone who’s angry at ‘stuff’ … (1/3)

In a week of horror news , I'm delighted to have squeezed a bit into this. As always, funny but absolutely terrifying. *(And it might the first time Andy Burnham has made me laugh quite so much, so congrats whoever thought of it.) #Theskewer #radio4 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Fortune enough to have a couple of little chunks in this week's News soup. Or News stew, whichever you prefer. Could maybe be a News Gumbo, or is that the same as Stew? Dunno. #Theskewer #Radio4 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Delighted to have had a typically sophisticated poo joke included on this week's fine show. #btn #bbc bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

This is very very funny. And the ending should make you feel very very angry. Congratulations to all involved. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
