Coverage of Jeremy Corbyn, independence referendum triggers and Alex Salmond's phone-in show

Topical news satire. Lewis Macleod and the team tackle media coverage of Jeremy Corbyn, triggers for a second independence referendum and Alex Salmond's phone-in show.

Wired News is a contemporary topical news satire starring Lewis Macleod. After a successful pilot and a Commonwealth Games Special in 2014, Lewis and the Wired News team are back for a new series on 成人快手 Radio Scotland. Lewis will be playing a heightened version of himself as the host of our mock news show 'Wired News'. He will be joined once again by fictional female co-host Anita Corduroy, played by Gabriel Quigley. Their on-air chemistry is notoriously recognisable, and their clenched teeth banter between stories hides a truly hateful relationship - basically the perfect radio presenting combo!

The show will focus its satirical attention this week on anti-Corbyn coverage, Indy-Ref 2 triggers, floods, January sales, Alex Salmond's new phone-in show, and Andy Murray's preparation for the start of the Australian Open.
