Topic: interesting...

I'm told the guest for the last recording ths season is Justin Webb.

Now assuming that's right, and unless there is some other Justin Webb, I
think we are talking about a very prominent BBC journalist who is
currently the Washington bureau chief and is about to take over as
presenter of Radio Four's breakfast news programme, Today.

Unlike the last journalist on the programme, John Sergeant, Justin has
no background in comedy, as far as I know.

I will be very interested to see if this is correct.

I'd put money on it turning out to be Justin Edwards, one-third of The
Consultants and emerging Radio 4 panel-game regular.

apparently it's not Justin Webb who's a guest in the last recording, but
ROBERT Webb, half of the comedy pairing Mitchell and Webb. No word on
the rest of the panel.
