Press

At the beginning of 2019, the comedian and Guardian columnist Romesh Ranganathan invited a panel of his funny friends to make predictions for the year to come. Did any of them come true? With an election, Brexit, the climate crisis and the rest to contend with, it is unlikely they could have foreseen anything in the madness.
