"Join Adam, Josh, and Alex for a fearless, live satirical takedown of the week’s news where absolutely nothing is off-limits."
Friday nights feel suspiciously distinct without the chaotic trifecta of Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe, and Alex Brooker dissecting the week's headlines. The Last Leg has morphed from a Paralympic sidecar into the UK's essential satirical safety valve, happily shouting the awkward questions we are all thinking. But after a raucous season finale, the studio lights are dim, leaving fans in a nervous limbo regarding the show's return. The news cycle won't stop being ridiculous, so we need these three back on the sofa to make sense of it all. To ensure you aren't left out of the loop when the live anarchy resumes, adding a reminder for the next series is the only way to guarantee you catch the premiere.

Release Window: Winter (January)
The Last Leg has maintained a steady Biannual rhythm for 12 years, typically returning in January. Originally a 2012 Paralympics special, it evolved into a Channel 4 staple. The show follows a consistent production cycle, airing multiple series annually to maintain topical relevance. This frequency has cemented its status as a Friday night cornerstone, offering a unique blend of satire and disability advocacy.
Broadcast history shows the first series of each year consistently premieres in late January. Subsequent blocks usually follow in May and September, ensuring a year-round presence. Despite minor shifts for specials, the January start remains the most reliable anchor for the series. This predictable schedule has fostered a dedicated audience that relies on the trio for comedic analysis of current global events.
