One Person Found This Helpful

A BBC Radio 4 Comedy Panel Game

Summary

Frank Skinner hosts the series where a celebrity panel delve into the bizarre world of online shopping

Everyone has an online life, and when the great British public put pen to keyboard to leave a review, they almost always write something hilarious. One Person Found This Helpful is the panel game that invites an all-star line-up to celebrate the good, the bad and the baffling.

Over the course of six episodes, the celebrity guests are presented with a selection of hilarious reviews and tasked with working out what exactly is being described. Maybe they'll even have a go at writing their own reviews along the way... So if you’re the person who went on Trip Advisor to review Ben Nevis as ‘Very steep and too high’, this show salutes you!

In the first episode of the series, Frank and the team find out what you think about mead, Poirot and a stinky brontosaurus. With guests Simon Evans, Jessica Fostekew, Amy Gledhill and Ahir Shah.

In Episode Two, we discover what you, the public, said about a dodgy snow globe and a risky waffle. Frank is joined by guests Desiree Burch, Simon Evans, Kerry Godliman and Andrew Maxwell.

In the third episode, Frank and the team hear what you said about a sparkly tower, the M1 and some hot lava. The guests are Sara Barron, Marcus Brigstocke, Pierre Novellie and Laura Smyth.

In Episode Four, we get your views on lemons, sharks and a very painful ladder. Frank is joined by guests Catherine Bohart, Daliso Chaponda, Shaparak Khorsandi and Ian Smith.

In the fifth episode, Frank and the team find out what you thought about a scenic fishfinger and a wobbly cupcake. With guests Scott Bennett, Jo Caulfield, Simon Evans and Esther Manito.

And finally in Episode Six, we discover what the world had to say about sharp carpets and a keg with a difference. Frank is joined by guests Simon Evans, Ania Magliano, Sunil Patel and Kiri Pritchard-McLean.
