Before we all plunge into the depths of January despair, it is time to put on your party hat and reflect on 2013 with Charlie Brooker's annual Christmas and New Year shindig.

Joining Charlie to tackle the whole year in one hour will be an array of guests, which is why you do not want to miss it.
0x5 - 2014 Wipe

Featuring contributions by Diane Morgan, Al Campbell, Adam Curtis and Cassetteboy.
0x6 - Election Wipe
May 6, 2015
As the nation prepares to take to the polling stations, Charlie Brooker's Election Wipe will bring viewers a summary of the good, the bad and the inevitable ugliness of the election campaign. In effect, Brooker will follow it so everyone else doesn't have to. From cringeworthy bacon-sandwich related fails to TV debate triumphs, Charlie will despair, digest and digress over it all. But he won't be doing it on his own. Alongside comedian Morgana Robinson, Weekly Wipe's Philomena Cunk and Barry Shitpeas will impart their unique perspective on the politics, propaganda and party plans the nation is set to have rammed down its throat.
0x7 - 2015 Wipe
December 30, 2015
Charlie Brooker is back for his annual review of the year to pick over the bones of 2015's news and cultural events. A year which saw the beginning of Corbyn-mania and a Tory majority and the end of Page Three and Cecil the Lion. Tackling the terrifying truth of the past 12 months as well as the more bizarre news stories, TV shows and general phenomena, Charlie's joined by brilliant guests including comedian Doug Stanhope and the ever insightful Philomena Cunk. It is basically like the Queen's speech but funnier, longer and contains adult humour.
0x8 - 2016 Wipe
December 29, 2016
Charlie Brooker looks back on the ups and downs of 2016. Helping Charlie to make sense of the year's news, TV and online phenomena is Philomena Cunk. In her most challenging interview yet, Philomena tries to understand what it is Professor Brian Cox is actually saying.
