Surprise!! It's a One Off What The Factual Special Episode!!

Marking the beginning of Conclave in the Vatican, Gill and Pete dust off the history books once again and look into the strange old practice of choosing a new Pope. Gill tells us of the craziest goings on in Papal history including stories of Cardinals just not screaming loud enough. Pete takes us through the runners and riders in the hunt for the top job and he also has a couple of stories including a parable teaching us that sometimes every vote counts so always take it seriously.

Also we see the return of fan favourites, "Love Factually" and "Chew The Fact" in which Gill has a top ten to share and Pete manages to shoe-horn in yet another obscure Beatles reference.
