Further details
The show starts asking if '1' is the political answer, what is the question, with discussion quickly following on to the U.S. Republicans convention and the nomination of Sarah Palin, and then the Swiss 'black hole machine'.
The Danger Danger Subatomic Joke Collider round features stand-up material from Frankie on television, Andy on modern living, Russell on drugs, and Michael on grooming.
Then follows the headliners round - a photo of Alistair Darling with the initials D.I.R.B.
The show ends as always with scenes we'd like to see - this week they are 'lines you wouldn't hear in a sci-fi film', and 'things you wouldn't hear on the radio'.
