    Russell Brand Jailed, Bono's Song For Jo & Christmas... Already?

    As Russell Brand is found guilty and sentenced to 10 and a half years in jail, Jo and Zoe talk about the immense bravery of the victims who came forward, and the huge impact of the judge’s words in the courtroom.

Also this week: don’t miss some incredible Digger doppelgangers, a delicious Dunk It recommendation and Jo’s perfect winter cold care package from U2’s Bono. Plus.
