Just before Christmas, Digital Spy was lucky enough to travel to Innsbruck for the day. We hung out in the snow, drank hot chocolate, and marvelled at the beautiful landscape. And we got to do all that without facing the terrifying ski jump that the 12 celebrities we were with had bizarrely agreed to tackle. (Seriously. We went up to the top of it.

Does the world – and Radio 4 in particular – need another panel show? Apparently so, for that is what we have in Dilemma, a new, post-Archers, Sunday-night effort, hosted by Sue Perkins and peopled by the familiar: Rebecca Front, Dave Gorman, Richard Herring. Oh, and Dominic Lawson. (Coming straight after The Archers could be a toughie: it's all inter-family bickering and people banging on about organic farming at the mo. Terrible. Like Radio Prince Charles.)
Anyway, Dilemma. I have no problem with the cast: all very funny and bantery. My heavy heart came from the format: I am sick of panel shows, which, by their nature, showcase show-off men and don't play to funny women's strengths. However, Dilemma was devised by comedian Danielle Ward,...
