We read the papers so you don’t have to – now five days a week! Today: Press aghast as it turns out the Government fought COVID on Carrie Johnson’s whims. Would you send your kids to a school with an A.I. deputy head? And Notting Hell: Richard Curtis admits his movies look a bit dodgy in retrospect. 

Miranda Sawyer is joined by The Critic magazine’s political sketchwriter Rob Hutton and comedian Fergus Craig to pull the papers to bits.
