Another turbulent week in politics...Andrew Marr, the soon-to-be-ex-Sunday-morning-TV-host, drops by to reflect on his career (and pore over the shock by-election result in Shropshire). Laura makes a late appearance after news breaks that Simon Case (the person currently investigating lockdown Xmas parties at Downing Street) was also at a seasonal office get-together last year. And Adam hears from Dr Maryam Khosravi, an intensive care doctor in London, about how she is preparing for Omicron. Today’s Newscast was made by Sam Bonham with Ben Cooper, Georgia Coan, Alix Pickles and Danny Wittenberg. Emma Crowe was the studio director. Jonathan Aspinwall was the editor.
