The week’s biggest stories like you’ve never heard them before. Welcome to The Skewer. Headphones on.

This week Jackie Weaver takes charge of the Handsforth Parish Jedi Council Meeting, Fawlty Towers welcomes quarantining guests, and Keir Starmer tells an ill-advised joke.

The multi-award winning, 'dizzying, dazzling, haunting and moving' satirical comedy returns to twist itself into these turbulent times.

With contributions from brand new and diverse audio talent, The Skewer is the sound the abyss makes as it stares back at you through your ears.

'A kind of concept album made of music and news. There's simply nothing else like it.'
