6. Meet Phal Wing and Sesie Dunt

Phil Wang and Susie Dent challenge guests to invent new words to help create the new ultimate Unspeakable dictionary. With guests Lucy Beaumont, Stephen Fry and Sunil Patel.

Stephen Fry invents a surreptitious insult, Lucy Beaumont presents a word that describes a state between two extremes, and Sunil Patel encapsulates a feeling we've all had on a trip to a gallery.

Ever struggled to find the right word for a feeling or sensation? Unspeakable sees comedian Phil Wang and lexicographer Susie Dent invite celebrity guests to invent new linguistic creations, to solve those all too relatable moments when we're lost for words.
