Current revision as of 16:27, 24 August 2021

Team captains:
Nick Hancock (1999 and 2001)
Phill Jupitus (1999)
Sean Hughes (2001)

BBC Two, 12 March 1999 and 16 March 2001 (2 specials)

In between BBC One's Comic Relief telethon broadcasts in 1999 and 2001, Have I Got News for You, Never Mind the Buzzcocks and They Think it's All Over were squashed up into this all-in-one format.

On both occasions, Angus Deayton hosted while the teams were captained by Nick Hancock and a Buzzcocks captain (Phill Jupitus in 1999, Sean Hughes in 2001).

For the 2003 and 2005 telethons, this squash-up's place was taken by celebrity editions of University Challenge, again hosted by Deayton.
