The sketches are Nationwide with jokes across the UK and Thumpalong with Reg Varnish. We then have an episode of Upstage Downstage. There is a sketch set in a canteen of California during WW2 which ends with an attempt to undermine American morale using well-known American entertainers. There is a brief discussion about bias in the news followed by a news report. Maurice Chevalier is in heaven and sings about how that he is glad he is not alive anymore. The show concludes with 2001 - A Royal Wedding Odyssey where Prince Eric marries a singer. There is a mass phone-in where you are able to ask questions of the participants.
