The West Wing

Pearl, 9.30pm

It seems everyone in the White House is suffering from 'foot in mouth' this week as a few unwise comments are let slip in the second instalment of this two-part episode.

President Bartlet (Martin Sheen, above) refines his speech for a major re-election announcement, while his staff work uneasily with political strategist (Ron Silver) on whether or not he should include a public apology in his remarks.

Meanwhile, CJ (Allison Janney) considers drastic action in the wake of her ill-timed statements made during a crucial press conference. On the private front, Bartlet tries to reconcile with his wife Abbey (Stockard Channing) over yet another misunderstanding.
