Remember the rules: no hesitation, repetition, or deviation. Just a Minute is a BBC Radio 4 radio comedy panel game which has been running continuously since its first broadcast on December 22, 1967. Four players try to speak about a simple subject for one minute, but there's a twist: they cannot hesitate when talking, deviate from the subject, or repeat any word aside from simple words or the subject. The chairman (currently Nicholas Parsons) regulates the show by verifying any rules broken. A whistle blower is provided to tell the player their time is up. A point is rewarded for speaking when the whistle is blown, a correct challenge for rule-breaking, a good interruption but no rule has been broken, or getting an interruption but an incorrect challenge. Regular panelists include Paul Merton, Clement Freud, Tony Hawks, Sue Perkins.
