We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Poppy Panic! Bored of demanding that everyone puts on the biggest poppy they can find, the papers are in a lather about Gaza protests on Remembrance Sunday. I Want Ewe Back: Britain’s loneliest sheep is rescued then spirited away from the public and press. Plus Stranger than fiction. The Mail has more salacious revelations from Nadine Dorries’ definitely 100% factional book.
Miranda Sawyer is joined by journalist Rob Hutton of the Critic Magazine and comedian Fergus Craig.
