Lorraine Kelly, Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker present a bumper show in which they say goodbye - and good riddance - to 2020. They are joined by Tom Allen, James Acaster, Judi Love, Asim Chaudhry, Clara Amfo and Speedo Mick to poke fun at an unprecedented 12 months, and ask what the new year might have in store. House band Alex Horne and the Horne Section provide musical entertainment and there's another ground-breaking challenge for Alex as he attempts to do as many Paralympic sports as he can in the studio.
