New Book Smells, Vanishing Shows & Never Auditioning

The Rest Is Entertainment Presented By Sky

Thursday, 26 June 2025 - 42 minutes

Richard Osman and Marina Hyde answer your burning questions on the world of Entertainment - including why Gladiators is a bore to film and if the team behind the BBC comedy 'The Thick Of It' knew about Huw Edwards before the Met Police.
