Press clippings

Remember the dodgy MP who claimed thousands for a gold sarcophagus and a terracotta army? Or the Duckmanitarian crisis, which saw ducks around the country losing their homes?

Miranda Hart sums up 2009 with spoofs made up in someone's head. The show uses real footage, heavily messed with, and specially-recorded material that looks at events that almost happened but didn't - such as an 80-year-old Arlene Phillips being replaced on Strictly by a child.

Talking heads include Stephen K Amos, Sally Phillips and Duncan Bannatyne.

The year's defining moments in culture, politics and television are cut up into a thousand pieces, then reassembled for our amusement, in a spoof of the traditional list show. Miranda Hart guides us through re-imagined versions of party leaders' conference speeches, George Bush issues a semi-musical apology for his time in office, and even Jeremy Paxman gets a light ribbing. Guests include Stephen K Amos, Duncan Bannatyne, and Adam Buxton with a uniquely suburban take on Ed Wardle's Alone in the Wild documentary adventure.
