What's upsetting Charlie Brooker

Frank Skinner discusses Charlie Brooker's dislike of doing anything he doesn't want to do.

Featuring: Frank Skinner & Charlie Brooker.

Press

Frank Skinner returns to his den of disgruntlement for a new run of Orwellian humbuggery. Tonight's panel comprises Goggleboxer Scarlett Moffatt, Tardis tenant Pearl Mackie and Britain's grouch laureate Charlie Brooker. Life experiences being lined up on the conveyor belt of calamity tonight include foot-based faux pas Crocs, the awkwardness accompanying a haircut and the little cylinder of sadness accompanying every visit to a hotel since time immemorial: the UHT milk carton.
