The Funniest Five

Radio 4's five funniest moments from 24 to 30 April 2017 may contain traces of beef, Brussels sprouts and whales...

This was an unexpectedly bovine-heavy week with cows going to Mars and a Kevin Eldon Will See You Now sketch with a devilishly dark twist. Have you ever considered that whale song is just a foul-mouthed tirade? Us neither until now (thanks Rob Newman). Meanwhile, Brussels sprouts found a people's champion in David Mitchell and, last but not least, Rich Hall reveals he's not a fan of throwing a basketball "granny style".

Enjoy more great comedy
