The Oxford English Dictionary has announced its word of the year: omnishambles.
The word - meaning a situation which is shambolic from every possible angle - was coined in 2009 by the writers of The Thick of It, a BBC political satire.
The judges say it has crossed over into real life this year.
Other contenders for word or phrase of the year included mummy porn - a genre inspired by the 50 Shades series of books - and green-on-blue, a term used in Afghanistan to describe military attacks by forces previously regarded as neutral.
