Looking forward to this tonight. Here's a pretty funny clip which has been cut for time:

Of course, not much has happened this year so it should be a quiet show.

Followed by Cunk on Christmas at 10pm.

Just me who heard the crew laughing after Charlie's spittake when he found out we'd voted Leave?

Loving this but taking it all in over the space of a year was slightly easier than in the space of an hour.

I felt that about last year's, it's a shame. Used to be excellent. Now just alright.

I think so. He did a similar video for The Guardian recently and the caption text was the same.

I slightly agree with pete137 in that Charlie Brooker has mellowed over the years. No longer as brutal and impartial as he was 10 years ago. Because he focuses more on politics, he shows his opinions and beliefs more, therefore losing a good chunk of audience. He's also steered very far from Television, which is where he first started, and was at his absolute best.

I'm dissapointed he didn't feature Leicester City at all in this. I'm aware Brooker hates football, so maybe it was easier for him to cut.

That being said, I found the ending with Fake BBC News pretty funny. Maybe a show idea in there somewhere.

Always look forward to this, and once again superb. Brooker brilliant as usual, taking the pee out of absolutely everyone and everything. It's just a shame about those two morons constantly showing up every few minutes yet again, with their stupid put-on voices, and stupid put-on faces, trying so hard to be soooo hilariously funny. I can't imagine why anyone would want to watch either of them doing anything (other than being punched).

To be honest though I did think last year's was better

I thought this was better than last year's, especially given what a swine of a year it's been.

The sounds over are the icing on the cake.

Well done Charlie!
