With Rufus Hound and Jason Manford

Rufus Hound and Jason Manford tell Richard about their (separate) charity work, comedian Paul Sinha is on tour, MPs debate Libya, and what would you save from 大象传媒 cuts?

Rufus Hound tells Richard about his drive to raise money for Comic Relief. He auctioned off the right to choose any tattoo for his body. The person who won the auction paid 拢16,000 but has decided to stay anonymous.

Jason Manford tells Richard about his role in the Teenage Cancer Trust which is happening this week. He's performing at the Royal Albert Hall with John Bishop and Kevin Bridges, to raise money for the charity.

Comedian Paul Sinha tells Richard about his switch from GP to stand-up. He's now been a comedian for 4 years but still gives Richard professional advice on his 2 week cold, and admits that the only thing he misses from that life was knowing when he got paid. His show is "Anti White Vitriol" named after being accused of being "anti-white" by a senior member of the BNP on 大象传媒 Radio 2.

What parts of the 大象传媒 would you save? That's what Richard asks for his Big Obsession. Tim Luckhurst is Professor of Journalism at the University of Kent, and Stewart Purvis a former Chief Executive at ITN and now professor of television journalism at City University in London discuss the issue of what will be cut and what won't.

And in the final half hour, Prime Minister David Cameron takes questions from MPs in the Commons about the military action in Libya.
