the next season
Although it's only two weeks away from the new season, I've so far had news on only one recording - which featured Paul Merton, Graham Norton, Charles Collingwood and Shappi Khorsandi.
I imagine there have been one or two more recordings since. If you went to one, let me know.
But the official website does have a clue as to who will be appearing in the next series.
Since it was first put up in 2002, the regulars on JAM have been listed on the official site like this.
In the past week, that's been changed to this...
Now given that it's now six years since Wendy was on, it was probably about time for her to be taken off the list of "present panellists". Tim Rice has also been removed and added are Shappi Khorsandi, Helen Lederer, Josie Long and Charles Collingwood.
Shappi and Charles we knew were on this series. Helen has only done one radio edition, as long ago as 1992, although she did four TV editions. With all due respect to a very nice and very talented person, she was possibly one of the least adept at the game that have been on.
When I first saw the name Josie Long, I assumed it was an error and they meant Josie Lawrence. But no, there is a talented young comedienne called Josie Long.
Welcome to the JAM family, Josie.
And I guess it all goes to show that they are really trying to get more women on the show. Kenneth will be rolling in his grave.
Good to see Stephen Fry is still listed - we can only hope...
Strange that people like Gyles Brandreth, Marcus Brigstocke and Kit Hesketh-Harvey aren't listed.
And even after six years, I note they still can't spell correctly the name of Liza Tarbuck!
