"Parsons and Naylor’s Pull-Out Sections" is a BBC Radio 2 satirical comedy show starring Andy Parsons and Henry Naylor. It also stars Richie Webb, and one female "special guest".

Female guests included Lucy Porter, Jo Caulfield, Julia Morris, Sarah Kendall, Kitty Flanagan, Nina Conti, Geraldine McNulty and Nina Wadia.

Most shows were recorded at the Drill Hall in London, although some were recorded at the Pleasance during the Edinburgh Fringe. Some of series eight and one show of series nine was recorded at the University of London Union on Malet Street.

Production for the show started on Tuesdays, when the commissioned would meet at Portland Place. The show also had an open door policy, allowing non-commissioned writers to submit unsolicited scripts. On recording days, a variety of sketches would be tested in front of the audience and developed for later inclusion in the programme.cite web|title=Writers Room |url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/opportunity/parsonsandnaylor05.shtml | accessdate=2006-09-19]

The eighth series coincided with the 2005 UK General Election. A ninth series started on 15 February 2007.

A 'best of' compilation album was released in August 2003, and shows are often repeated on BBC7.
