About this episode
This week, Armando is joined again by comedian Ria Lina, and Political Editor of The Spectator, Tim Shipman.
We're looking back at looking back. In a week where a scandal-hit Prince renounces his titles and the Chinese spy case continues to pose questions of language for the government, people's previous decisions are being put under the spotlight, we look at how public figures respond to the repercussions of their past. Of course, hindsight is 20:20.
Speaking of 2020, there's also chat about the covid inquiry, and whether we're getting the results we need, or just lurid detail?
