Comedian Glenn Moore takes another look through his almanac at major world events and what he was doing at the time. Perhaps best-known for his outrageously brilliant one-liners on Mock The Week, Glenn delivers a tale of comic mishaps and extraordinary scenes interwoven with a big event in history – and looks back through his almanac to find out other strange connections to the day as well.

In episode one, a deadly spy operation causes him to suspect his innocent Russian flatmate…

In the second episode, a shocking case of wrongful arrest as Glenn Moore is mistaken for... Glenn Moore!

In episode three, it’s lockdown 2020 - can father-to-be Glenn learn how to use a mask and change a nappy - and crucially, tell which is which?

And in the series finale, Glenn is running the London Marathon - with his fridge strapped to someone else’s back…
