What’s going to happen in 2026? Almost certainly not what we predict… which makes this episode perfect Stop The Press! territory. Bill, Nick and Rob each bring three predictions for the year ahead across news, media, politics and culture - and they range from the vaguely plausible to the gloriously unhinged.

Expect bold calls, wilful speculation, media trends taken to their illogical conclusion, and a healthy dose of self-awareness that most of this will age terribly. From the future of journalism and political chaos to cultural moments that definitely won’t pan out as expected, the trio embrace the joy of being confidently wrong.

It’s irreverent, slightly cynical, occasionally insightful, and very much not investment advice.

In this special year-in-review episode of Stop The Press!, Bill, Nick and Rob take a deep breath and dive into the whirlwind that was 2025. From Trump’s escalating tariff battles to the latest round of turmoil inside the Labour Party, the trio unpack the stories that dominated headlines - and the ones that shaped the world in quieter but equally important ways.

Who came out on top this year, and who stumbled spectacularly? The team breaks down the political players, media moments, surprise successes and high-profile missteps that defined the global news cycle.

Tune in for a lively look back at the winners, the losers, and everything in between as we close the chapter on 2025.

This week, Rob, Bill and Nick, look back at 30 years of crossing paths with every British Prime Minister from Margaret Thatcher to Boris Johnson. Bill, especially shares what they were really like when the cameras stopped rolling, how they dealt with the media - and how the media dealt with them. From cool operators to total chaos merchants, it’s a lively tour through three decades of political personalities and press showdowns.
