Arguments aplenty in this week?s instalment as we examine The Chaser’s APEC stunt, look at local hero Chris Lilley’s new production Summer Heights High, go slightly further a field for the New Zealand via New York lunacy of Flight of the Conchords and dissect a doco on the Human Brain.

?He swore he?d get revenge, even if it took 100 episodes. And here it is, slightly over 99 episodes later and still no revenge. We?re essentially in the clear.?
Tonight on Boxcutters? John?s rotting corpse is discovered, but the post mortem answers few questions. There is mystery and intrigue as the gang assess the full extent of the Damages. A trip to Paris gets Sarah Jessica in trouble; while some questions are answered about the Doctor?s mysterious Master. Meanwhile, Mr Foxtel is in for a shock when one of his closest supports turns on I.Q.
