Episode 3: Prisons, Syria and Kemi's Catchphrase

Episode 3 of 5

The Skewer's Jon Holmes, host Andrew Hunter Murray, Chief Correspondent Amy Hoggart, and The Naked Week team deliver a topical news-nude straight to your ears.

The team look at the week's news and, while trying understand how rebels took Syria so quickly, a military strategist helps us to take the Warwickshire stronghold of Nuneaton. Plus Rupert the Jorkiepoo helps solve the prison overcrowding crisis.

From The Skewer’s Jon Holmes comes The Naked Week, a fresh way of dressing the week’s news in the altogether and parading it around for everyone to laugh at. Host Andrew Hunter Murray (No Such Thing As A Fish, QI Elf, Private Eye), Amy Hoggart sand Adam Macqueen strip away the curtain and dive into not only the big stories, but also the way in which the news is packaged and presented.

From award-winning writers and a crack team of contemporary satirists - and recorded in front of a live audience - The Naked Week delivers a topical news nude straight to your ears.
