Hello.
We've got a real treat for you to mark a week since all those election results rolled in, we thought we would revisit the big colour in newscast map of what seats went which colour, because I just have a feeling that I know the big picture of the election, but I don't know, like the medium sized picture and lots of the small pictures.
So we have assembled a superstar panel of election experts to dig through.
Can you dig through a picture?
You know what I mean?
It's been a long seven weeks to basically just dig into what actually happened at the election and some of the things we might have missed, whether they're big things or small things.
So that's what you will hear on this episode of Newscast, which is our probably last election cast of this year.
Newscast newscast from the BBC.
Hello, it's Adam in the newscast studio.
And joining me for this stroll down memory lane.
Can it be memory lane if it was only a week ago?
Let's find out.
We've got Scarlett McGuire, who works for JL Partners, the pollsters.
Hello again, Scarlett.
Hi.
Freshly rested from a little holiday, I hear.
Also in the studio is John Byrne Murdoch, who's a columnist and chief data reporter for Financial Times.
Hello, John.
