The Last Leg

Series two, episode one
Adam Hills was one of the Paralympics’ more unlikely stars, widely praised for his comic yet pointed take on the Games. So much so that this new series sees him being offered the chance to widen his brief: tonight, he’ll return alongside regular sidekicks Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker to cast his eye over the last seven days of news. Expect regular updates, too, on Brooker’s quest to participate in the Rio Paralympics. Well, as Games aftermaths go, it’ll surely have more to recommend it than Tom Daley’s ‘Splash’ – Idris Elba, for one, who is the guest for tonight's opening edition. Expect more 2012 retro stylings tomorrow as More4 offers up ‘Teenage Superhumans’, which will see Rachael Latham catching up with Paralympic stars Hannah Cockroft, Jonnie Peacock and Will Bayley. How’s life been for them since the Games?
