Giles Coren Has No Idea

Shall we talk about tinned fish?

Giles and Esther surf through this week's papers; from children's orchestra's and Welsh school names, to caffeine percentages and dragons in court. Giles reminisces about a childhood favourite book and Esther's extensive knowledge of Flobert is put to the test.

Each week Giles Coren finds himself with no idea what to write about in his weekly column. Having read all the papers and found nothing of interest whatsoever, he takes a break and does the school run. That’s where his wife and fellow journalist Esther Walker comes in. Upon his return, Esther has half a dozen ideas she’s spotted ready to knock around with him over the kitchen table and a much needed pot of coffee.
