Podiatry banter on the BBC

Not sure if anyone outside of the UK will be familiar with a programme on TV here called 'Have I Got News for You'. It's a panel show type format which pokes fun at the previous weeks news headlines.

Each week they have a round in which they show headlines from the news with words blocked out. The aim is to guess the missing words. Simples. For a bit of extra fun they always have a 'guest publication' which they show headlines from as well. They tend to be obscure publications which are bound to amuse. Previous such guest publications have included Goat World and International Car Park Design to name but two.

This weeks guest publication was none other than Lower Extremity Review. Made for some rather amusing banter. Here is the link to the episode on the BBC i-player (go straight to 24:20 for the missing word round):

Note: I have a gut feeling those outside the UK might to be able to access this - I hope I'm wrong as it's really quite funny. Oh, and it will only be available to watch online for a couple more days so get in quick.
