Paul Merton talks to Sue Perkins about their shared memories of Nicholas Parsons on Just a Minute.

Recorded especially as part of Radio 4 Extra's Nicholas Parsons Day - Christmas Eve 2023 - Paul and Sue talk backstage before a recent recording of Just a Minute.

They remember Nicholas Parsons' warmth, foibles and good humour. They talk about their own debuts on Just a Minute and how Nicholas was a perfect host.

And Sue Perkins talks about the incredible challenge of being asked to become the chair of Just a Minute after Nicholas died in 2020.

Just how do you follow a 50 year legend?
