Comedian and actor Richard Ayoade will guest present. It is his 9th time in the host's chair. Joining him on the panels will be comedian Roisin Conaty and the Secretary-General of the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers, Mick Lynch.

Joining Ayoade as the week's guest panellists, alongside regular team captains Ian Hislop and Paul Merton, are comedian and actor Roisin Conaty and Secretary-General of the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers, Mick Lynch.

The panel's attention soon turned to the biggest story of the week - the sad passing of Her Majesty The Queen and her funeral on Monday. In the days leading up to the funeral, people came to London to queue for many hours to pay their respects to The Queen at the Lying-in-State at Westminster Hall. Anger was sparked by accusations that This Morning presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield had skipped the public queue, with the two presenters saying that they were there to report on the event as part of the world's media.

"This is the national scandal over the queue for the Lying-in-State. ITV's Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield apparently just appeared in Westminster Hall on Sunday..." host Richard Ayoade said.

"Just appeared? Like a haunting?" joked Roisin Conaty.

"Exactly, without having spent the previous 36 hours queuing. What was the average queuing time?" asked Ayoade.

"It depends which paper you read! It started at about 14 hours, then 15, and in the end it was... six years" joked Ian Hislop.

"11 hours queuing time... the sort of delay you'd be proud of, Mick" Ayoade quipped to Mick Lynch.

Later in the programme, the panel looked at Liz Truss's first working week as the new Prime Minister, which included a trip to New York, and a rocky start to the prospect of a post-Brexit trade deal with the US.

"This is the news that we'd all forgotten... Liz Truss is Prime Minister. What has Liz Truss said she's prepared for?" asked Ayoade.

"She's prepared to be unpopular... which is lucky!" quipped Hislop.

"Yes, this week Truss told the BBC she was prepared for her policies to be unpopular with voters. What did Truss not pick up in America?" Ayoade asked.

"A trade deal," Conaty replied.

"Biden said there's no deal until you sort out Northern Ireland. That might take a century or two..." Hislop chipped in.

"Truss told reporters that discussion for a post-Brexit trade deal with the US were not going to start in the short to medium term. So... one for the next Prime Minister then..." Ayoade joked, before continuing, "Mick, as a Brexit voter, you must be thrilled with the way things have gone."

"Well, I'm thrilled that the mandate of the people has been carried out, at the end of the day. They wanted to leave the European Union, that's what they voted for," Lynch responded.

"But it's a union!" quipped Conaty.

"You can feel free to leave a union whenever you want to," replied Lynch.

"But you know, Truss has only been PM for three weeks, so you could of course blame Boris and his International Trade Secretary who was... yep... Liz Truss," joked Ayoade, continuing, "the UK has been warned that when it comes to a trade deal with the US we are at the back of the queue... which is why the Government has appointed Phil and Holly."
