Britain prepares for the New Year

PM

Available for 18 days

We write 2025 into the history books and have a political look ahead to 2026. As the Queen praises of the bravery of John Hunt's family and raises her own experience of an assault, we hear from her friend Baroness Kennedy. Plus - a live rendition of Auld Lang Syne, and the joys of winter walks.
