Frame 178 - Ridiculously Late Football Scores. The snooker is back (temporarily) and all involved are too exhausted to do this. They sleepwalk their way through it all making errors galore but creating a thrilling denouement. I'd say don't waste your time, but why else would you be watching?

It's a crucial frame in the contest, with one player in extraordinarily poor recent form. Can they turn it around? Will Charles III experience the same fate as Charles I and who will be winning the battle of Man versus Boys at 8.03pm. Plus Guess that Tune and Whory Horse guesting as score predictor. And despite the huge number of football fixture, it's the quickest frame ever, so be grateful for small mercies.

Frame 167 - It's Only A Game. Me1 and Me2 are both going to be snookering you tonight and you're going to love it. It's a show with everything, a song, a virtuoso playing their instrument, a hippopotamus obsessed with mammary glands. More than 3 two ball breaks. And the beautiful moment when Luton Town weren't going to be in the play off finals. Plus it's a crucial frame.

Frame 166 - Monarchy vs Republic. In this crucial frame of snooker, not only do we get to find out which Me is best at snooker this week, but also resolve how the UK will be governed for the next 1000 years. Plus Rich thinks he might be drinking real gin and loses his mind and gives you some 40 year old mnemonics and vocab songs from his o level studies and plays his snooker stick along with another classic comedy song. Was he drun...

Frame 165 Simon Tutu - In a crucial frame tonight, Me 1 tries to defeat Me2 at snooker whilst Me2 in turn attempts to defeat Me1. But who will do the dirty business? Sybil has had a makeover and Richard is playing his cue like a Stradivarius and singing about Woolworths. More importantly it's an incredible standard of snooker for you to enjoy. So do that or this is all for nought.

Frame 164 - Orange. In a crucial frame Me1 takes on Me2 at snooker. I hope nobody protests. Not that that would make the board any more unplayable. Who will win? Me or me? The only loser is you, for wasting your time on this.

Write It Down! After a holiday break (geddit?) Me1 and Me2 are back for a crucial frame in the tournament which could have a huge impact on the final result. Richard seems distracted by half-remembered comedians and is incredibly still not over his recent bug, but the players, whilst shit, provide a thrilling match with incident and balls and a cat in it.

Frame 162 - Don Quixote. The snooker is back and so are the all important voices of the host and the commentators (well one of them). It's another crucial frame, but the cat litter box is proving a worthy adversary and the players aren't very good at snooker. Still it only ends with death.

Frame 161 - Strike. Nazi supporter Ian Twitch has suspended Richard Herring for offending him by saying that the Tories are the same as the Nazis. Consequently all the pundits, commentators and predicting puppets have gone on strike in support. So this is a bare bones edition of the contest, with just the action. Which means it has all the pots in, no "expert" analysis and will probably be quite hard to follow in audio only. But un...

Frame 160 - Winner Gets Ants. All the usual rubbish from this long running snooker competition, plus all the excitement of the FA and Scotch Women's football. And also some snooker. It's a very exciting frame. But can some puppets predict the result? I used to be on TV.
