'What has James lost, forgotten or mislaid this week?" returns with Alex annoyingly still in the lead, and Alex reads the usual 'definitely real' correspondence. Mrs ADHD leaves a gap, James can’t do sums and Alex hates how good Mrs ADHD is… Written by James Brown, Alex Conner and Sam Brown. Produced by James Brown and JBHD Ltd.
