Format

Each day, the show debates three topical issues with each of the three guest presenters adopting an opinionated point of view on the topic. The studio audience are invited to press a handset to indicate their level of approval for each presenter's stance in the debate which appears as an on-screen graphic with a "sausage" indicating the support for each guest's point of view. A panel of "Skypers" using web cams appear on a video wall providing their points of view to add to that of the panel. Audience members and additional guests are also sometimes invited to add to the debate. The three presenters initially sit at a desk but then move to a more informal sofa area for the next topic and alternate between the two sets.

The show was filmed at The Hospital Club Studios, part of an entertainment complex and club in Covent Garden, in Central London.

gollark: Haven't actually checked.
gollark: I assume it just errors and rolls back stuff (if relevant).
gollark: Given arbitrary time and motivation (and nice solutions to all the irritating technical questions) I could probably make something nice. I have neither of those really.
gollark: SQLite - praise be - does very robust testing, they have a thing which simulates malloc failure after varying numbers of calls during their tests.
gollark: Un-anyway, I don't think it's worth not critically failing unless you write general important "infrastructure" stuff like SQLite or embedded code.
