    (Yes I’d like to) Wipe 2016

    The Philomena Cunk joke about holes with Brian Cox was laugh out loud funny, saved a really quite sobering 2016 Wipe…not Brooker & co.’s fault, it’s just been a really shit and depressing year.

And 6Music are playing them a lot in almost permanent rotation, despite the very silly name… I mean they sing about how…
