It was a lot better than last series, although that improved a it went on.
A shame one of the best bits - Richard Yewtree was so short, although I imagine it eats up material.
But what did really surprise me is that the reveal of the fake news stories was done right at the start. The thing that has provided so much publicity for the programme and has had so many people talking about it and they throw it away in the first 5 minutes. Crazy
Personally I still enjoy it, it's a really good summary of the week, bit silly, always entertaining

Every other attempt has failed to last - The 11 o Clock Show and 10 o Clock Live being two notable attempts.
The Last Leg is now the bread and butter business for Channel 4 on a Friday night along with Gogglebox - in the same way A Question of Sport and Have I Got News For You are bread and butter business for Friday night BBC One - you can argue that all of these shows have declined in content, but for both channels, they are doing reasonably well and are stable fixtures which is what some viewers want in their lives these days
