Ross Noble or Alan Davies have never appeared on Mock the Week…
The headline in the Mirror article doesn’t match the body of the text - they prepare material on subjects that may be discussed - that is not "scripted".

TV star Alan Davies has confirmed what viewers have long suspected – quiz show gags are set up in advance.
Comedy formats such as Mock The Week, appear improvised, when panellists do short stand-up acts based on “random” subjects.
But revealing the secrets of the hit panel shows, Jonathan Creek star Alan said: “On QI, you get the questions, but they’re incomprehensible!”
“I haven’t been on Mock the Week, but I know that they prepare material and jokes.
“Never Mind the Buzzcocks have guests on who are comedians, so they can give them a few lines or a few thoughts.

However, despite claims from some, Ed assured us that the show is not scripted, explaining: "When people say that, do they think we sit down all together, and Dara says his line and I say my line? No, it's not scripted.
"We know, we go in there armed with some jokes that we want to make about topical stuff, because that would be mad not to do that, not read the news and not prepare that. But scripted, we know what each other is going to say – which is absolutely not the case."

If it’s scripted, why do they film three hours, then edit it down to 30 minutes?
