    Tom Clarkson joins presenters Lawrence Barretto and Laura Winter for a post-show debrief. They share stories from rehearsals, what it was like co-hosting in front of 20,000 people, working alongside the hilarious Jack Whitehall, their favourite livery, which music acts they enjoyed, and what they’re now most looking forward to about the new season.
