Breaking The Year: 2022

Des Clarke is joined by Karen Dunbar, Chris Forbes, Susie McCabe and Neil Delamere to take a wry look back at the biggest stories and events of the past 12 months. They reflect on matters including the revolving door of 10 Downing Street and a brand new chapter for the monarchy under King Charles III in a review that hits harder than Will Smith on Oscars night.
