Has the programme a new producer? Listened tonight (25.6.18) and thought it was racier and somewhat cruder than before.
Was one of the songs extolling the virtues of taking drugs? On Radio 4 at 6.30?

For the first time in somewhile I listened to the show. Gosh, it's become even ruder hasn't it? Whilst there is still much to enjoy some of the contributors seem to confuse crudity with wit. The audience seem to find it hysterically funny though.

It was always smutty, what Humphrey Lyttleton describe as 'blue chip filth'. How witty, or not, it is does depend on the guests.

I have always loved this. I have it subscribed on my BBC Sounds app so that I never miss it.
