Mark Watson needs your passion stories
Mark Watson introduces the theme of the fourth episode.
Featuring: Tom Basden, Tim Key & Mark Watson.
Mark Watson's Passion Thriller
Mark asked the audience whether he should finish the show with a passion "thriller" (singing Nessun Dorma) or a passion "killer" (reading the Shipping Forecast with ice being put down his pants). He got a bit of both.
Featuring: Tom Basden, Tim Key & Mark Watson.
