What to expect
Joe Lycett and Ivo Graham explore the nation's weird and wonderful obsessions
“Had a great laugh and learnt more than I expected on weird things!” – Audible Review
From riding roller coasters, to collecting stamps, everyone has their own little obsession. Across three series listen as two of the UK’s favourite comedians, Joe Lycett and Ivo Graham, welcome celebrities and members of the public to share their secret obsessions in this BBC Radio 4 comedy.
Hear Katherine Ryan share her love of the Kardashians, Greg James introduce Joe to the world of cricket, and June Sarpong try to get you into hula hooping. Fatiha El-Ghorri judges audience trainers, Elis James talks us through his Welsh football shirt collection, and Mary Berry shares her love of her dog Darcy. Joe and Ivo also encourage members of the public to share their secret passions, along with inviting a weekly VOP (very obsessed person) to introduce their own collection of curiosities. Warning - this is not for the faint-hearted!
