    It won't feature on this though - it's about news coverage. Are you getting confused with Screenwipe?

    Brilliantly funny. Loved Shouty Fox woman, and the Fisher Price cyberman body scanner. And the increasingly complicated Nigerian pants bomber's name. And the whole Yemen bit (Alqaeda-on-sea etc.).

    And Britains snow chaos - "last packet of croissants".

    Excellent.

    Curious editing, why was the American comic able to use f*** without being bleeped whilst Charlie wasn't??

    "Next week Solving climate change with taramasalata"

    That bloke at the end who said the snow chaos "doesn't matter does it" is a legend. He was so excited. :D

    In all seriousness, there's probably a quota. For example, I think 12a films can get away with a singular 'f###' - any more and you go up to 15.

    Brilliant show anyway.

    Aaaarrrrggghhh I missed it.

    Though not really a big deal in this I Player age but still annoyed.

    I love Charles Brooker and I work in News too.

    Not so interested fact ... The BBC used Newswipe as part of it's News and Current Affairs training.

    But what's that got to do with a show that's broadcast on BBC4? :confused:

    If I remember rightly he said he does it to avoid controversy towards him, although I think he might be joking. Might be. :D

    I wish he'd do more Screenwipe rather than another full series of Newswipe. I found it repetitive, and stating the obvious to people who probably got it themselves.
