What is Newsjack?

Exclusive to 大象传媒 Radio 4 Extra, Newsjack showcases the week's news stories which have been lovingly bashed, mashed and molded into sketches and one-liners.

Irreverent and satirical, Newsjack is the scrapbook sketch show written entirely by the Great British public, and then bought to life by a revolving cast of sketch performers.

Trying to make sense of it all is our host, Kiri Pritchard-McLean.

- Yes, anyone can submit material. It's a showcase for new comedy writing.
