'The funniest comedy quiz show of them all.' --- Sue Arnold, Observer
It's the hardy perennial of panel games that's constantly in bloom, a brimful of the funniest punnings and wittiest one-liners around.
Chairman Humphrey Lyttelton, and regulars Tim Brooke-Taylor, Barry Cryer and Graeme Garden, are joined by special guests Stephen Fry, Jeremy Hardy, Paul Merton and Sandi Toksvig.
Hear them having their wicked way with old favourites such as One Song to the Tune of Another, Limericks and Sound Charades as well as the modern aural glamour of Stars in their Ears or the totally hi-tech Spot the Website round.
Thrill to the Late Arrivals at a society ball for builders with Mr and Mrs Jay and their daughter Iris and, of course, Mr and Mrs Foursugarsin-Minelove and their daughter Olive!
It's the authentic antidote to panel games. Accept no substitutes.
They're game. Are you?
