Stand-up show in which John Bishop looks at the highs and lows of 2012.

Bishop dissects the "incredible events" of 2012, including the Olympics, Paralympics and the Jubilee. But he also remembers how we failed at another major football tournament, endured a miserable recession, found something called the God Particle, got hot and flustered at Fifty Shades of Grey and had the wettest June since the dawn of time.

Filmed in front of a live studio audience, this two-part special includes archive clips and bespoke sketches from comedy group Pappy's.
