The Last Leg’s Christmas Bash: What Went Down
The Last Leg didn’t hold back for their Christmas Special this year. On 20th December 2024, the show’s trio—Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe, and Alex Brooker—invited viewers into a packed night of satire, quick-witted jokes, and a dash of real talk about 2024. You could tell nobody behind the desk was shying away from the chaos and oddities that defined the past twelve months. Even with tinsel and crackers on the set, that cheeky, irreverent humor stayed put front and center.
Special guests played a big part too. Richard Coles, known for his straight-talking style as both priest and broadcaster, didn’t hold back on politics or pop culture. TV presenter Alex Jones brought festive energy, tossing in personal stories and joining in the banter like she belonged there all year. Watching Coles and Jones spar with the hosts was a treat—each took turns poking fun at public figures and tossing around those oddball headlines that only make sense in the world of The Last Leg.
Laughs, Satire, and a Year in Review
This Christmas episode wasn’t just about tinsel and pullovers. The heart of The Last Leg is always its blend of smart jokes and razor-sharp observations about the news. Politics stayed on the menu, but with a yuletide twist: think Santa in Westminster, Boris Johnson references wrapped in fairy lights, and cheeky digs at the year’s political blunders. The panel didn’t shy away from taking jabs at themselves either—remember Josh’s attempt at Christmas karaoke?
A highlight was the show’s annual year-in-review segment. Instead of a boring recap, the hosts rolled out the most ridiculous moments of 2024, peppered with offbeat commentary. There were mock awards for ‘oddest political apology’ and ‘most baffling celebrity moment,’ all delivered in that signature self-deprecating style.
Throughout the episode, the chemistry between the cast and guests kept things moving. The jokes hit differently when the holiday mood set in—snarky, snappy, but never mean-spirited. Fans got what they expected: proper The Last Leg energy with a side of Christmas sparkle, reminding everyone how satire and a bit of silliness can close out a year to remember.
