Space Junk, Big Trains & Hot Potatoes - Bugle 4359

The Bugle turns 18 — and we’re not done celebrating yet! In Part 2 of our birthday special, Andy Zaltzman is joined by Alice Fraser and Nish Kumar to take a sideways look at some of the week’s more alternative headlines.


🚆 UK News: Double-decker trains could be coming to Britain — but is it a great leap forward, or just a taller disaster waiting to happen?

🛰️ Australian News: Space junk keeps falling from the sky. Should we be worried, or is this just nature’s way of redecorating the Outback?

📚 Online News: Wikipedia turns out to be even stranger than you remember — and possibly more reliable than your uncle’s Facebook feed.

🥔 Bugle Hot Potato: Producer Chris Skinner finally reveals the results of our first-ever Bugle audience survey, and the findings are… troubling, hilarious, and statistically unsound.

🎉 It’s been 18 years of world events, weird news, and questionable analysis — and somehow we’re still here.
