0:01:43 > 0:01:45of the year and where better to begin
0:01:45 > 0:01:48than at the very start of the year itself - March.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56This year, the Bard celebrated what would have been his 600th birthday,
0:01:56 > 0:02:00and some of the country's greatest Shakespearean actors gathered in

0:03:22 > 0:03:23To be...
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- Got free tickets.- ..or not to be.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27No, I've got to go...
0:03:27 > 0:03:28That is the question.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Cancer? Oh, shit, man.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35From the Prince of Denmark to the Queen of Vic.
0:03:35 > 0:03:40In March, we said goodbye to a TV icon, Dame Barbara Windsor.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44She didn't die, she left EastEnders, but her character in EastEnders died
0:03:44 > 0:03:46and it was very, very sad.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49Aww!
0:03:49 > 0:03:51CLATTERING
0:03:56 > 0:03:59You all right, Mum? You don't seem yourself.
0:04:05 > 0:04:09By scene two, him and I were doing what we do,
0:04:09 > 0:04:11you know, the Mitchell brothers, we're back.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Barbara said, "It's time for Peggy to die."
0:04:22 > 0:04:27And I cried when she told me, I genuinely cried. Um...
0:04:27 > 0:04:30And she cried. And Scott, her husband, cried.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31And Steve cried.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33And Ross cried.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35And Phil and Grant genuinely cried.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Steve McFadden cried and Barbara and Steve cried.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39And Mick cried.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42And we all sort of sat and held each other.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44And then we genuinely cried.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48But the most poignant moment was when Peggy Mitchell met the ghostly
0:04:48 > 0:04:51figure of an old friend.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53It had to be Pat.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55As you would...
0:04:55 > 0:04:57I know the word "ghost" is overused,
0:04:57 > 0:05:03but as you would expect a ghost to be, which is, to my mind,
0:05:03 > 0:05:06an impression, a photograph on the atmosphere.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08We thought, no, let's treat it as natural.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Oh, I might have known it was you.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15With your earrings rattling like Marley's bleeding chains.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- DISTORTED VOICE:- Oh, these are me favourites!
0:05:18 > 0:05:20I think I look smashing.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23We've had an icon playing an icon.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27And I think you could replace the Albert Square sign
0:05:27 > 0:05:30with a picture of Peggy Mitchell.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32GARGLING
0:05:33 > 0:05:36RETCHING

0:06:00 > 0:06:01which was sadly axed by Channel 4.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05But it bowed out in style with this naked special.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07The air of anticipation here.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Yes, are we going to change somebody's life
0:06:10 > 0:06:12in spectacular fashion?

0:06:58 > 0:07:00If it was classy drama you were after,

0:08:43 > 0:08:45And hey, if the shit don't come up right,
0:08:45 > 0:08:47one way or another, YOU will pay for this shit!
0:08:47 > 0:08:49He's just a cub.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Why the fuck did you get all upset over some bullshit?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Here we are a fucking year later, everybody forgot about the shit
0:08:55 > 0:08:57and you're running your mouth about nothing at all?

0:08:59 > 0:09:00Go half crazy with it.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Shut the fuck up!
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Also in April, Sir David Attenborough celebrated 90 years
0:09:08 > 0:09:12on earth and the BBC dedicated a whole month of programmes to him,
0:09:12 > 0:09:13including this one.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14Good evening, Sir David.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18I would like to wish you, Sir David, a very happy 90th birthday.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19FARTING SOUND
0:09:19 > 0:09:22And then there was the return of Planet Earth.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Up here in Alaska, during the summer,
0:09:25 > 0:09:29a whole succession of different food become available.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31And there is a spectacular animal here
0:09:31 > 0:09:34that's prepared to sample each and every single one of them.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36No one dish remains available for very long
0:09:36 > 0:09:39so you have to make the best of it while you can,
0:09:39 > 0:09:42and top of the menu right now is Homo erectus.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47It's the favourite food of the largest and certainly the most
0:09:47 > 0:09:51formidable of all omnivores - grizzly bears.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56The conflict between people and wildlife is on the rise.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Humans have created this crisis,
0:09:59 > 0:10:02but we also have the power to resolve it.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06Let me ask you, if I may, about an incident last week
0:10:06 > 0:10:09involving one of the gorillas at London Zoo, Kumbuka,
0:10:09 > 0:10:12who escaped after being taunted by people.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15What was your reaction to that story?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Deep, deep sympathy and sorrow.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21They are wonderful animals.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24If the people were sort of respectful, that would be something.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28But sometimes, visitors to zoos are not respectful
0:10:28 > 0:10:30and finally the alpha male, the big gorilla,
0:10:30 > 0:10:33got fed up with it, it's hardly surprising.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37In May, the long-awaited Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
0:10:37 > 0:10:40opened in London's West End.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43I'm here because I love Harry Potter, I love the theatre.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45He was such a big part of my childhood,
0:10:45 > 0:10:47I thought this maybe was going to be really different and it might
0:10:47 > 0:10:49slightly change or ruin...
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Well, I don't think it will.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54I'm really chuffed that JK Rowling's chosen London to have the world
0:10:54 > 0:10:57premiere of Harry Potter and the Curse Child.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Clearly Voldemort or his successor may well be back,
0:10:59 > 0:11:01so we'll have to wait and see what happens.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Some of Harry Potter's biggest stars, and Rupert Grint,
0:11:04 > 0:11:05attended the premiere.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Thanks, gorgeous. You're a legend. Thanks, gorgeous.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11The three of us kind of talked and discussed and
0:11:11 > 0:11:13cogitated the story through discussions,
0:11:13 > 0:11:15which Jack then wrote down.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Well, well, well, if it isn't Harry Potter.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20You think all because you're famous
0:11:20 > 0:11:22you can boss everyone around!
0:11:22 > 0:11:25I knew how much expectation there would be.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27And didn't want to let fans down.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Don't mess with Harry Potter. He met the Dark Lord when he was a baby.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- Thank you very much, indeed. - Thank you.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Also in May, George Clooney unveiled the brand-new, curry-proof

0:11:55 > 0:12:01The biggest piece of showbiz gossip of 2016 was the demise of Brangelina.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Actress Marion Cotillard has issued a statement overnight quashing any
0:12:05 > 0:12:07rumours that she was in any way involved
0:12:07 > 0:12:09with Brad and Angelina's divorce.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13Well, we're now joined by divorce lawyer Christopher Mercher.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15A very good morning to you.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Do you know, what strikes me about this situation
0:12:17 > 0:12:21is it seems to have got bitter very quickly.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- MUMBLED:- Just very quickly - what you have to remember
0:12:24 > 0:12:27is that Angelina Jolie has had a history
0:12:27 > 0:12:31of turbulent relationships with her former husbands.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33She also has a terrible relationship
0:12:33 > 0:12:36with her father, Jon Voight.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Jon Voight. Jon Voight.
0:12:39 > 0:12:40Next question.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43There are indications Angelina doesn't want any money from
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Brad Pitt - is that likely to be how they resolve this?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47No.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50In June, football happened.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Blimey, you've joined us. You're suckers for punishment.

0:13:15 > 0:13:16Well, that's it from us.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18England have been beaten by Iceland,
0:13:18 > 0:13:22a country with more volcanoes than professional footballers.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24We may as well give up. Sweet dreams.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Absolutely gutted. Sick as a parrot. Not over the moon.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31Joe Hart, a liability.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32A total liability.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36He should have brought Foster in after Wales.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41Roy Hodgson, bye-bye. Just like the EU.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43THEY CHEER
