Caught in the Act

(I make it twelve episodes that were made, all airing on Fridays at 8:30pm. Unless two never made it to air for whatever reason?)

Synopsis

The BBC's "me-too!" answer to ITV's vastly successful You've Been Framed!, this never really took off.

People sent in their home videos, people representing nine of the videos faced off in three semi-finals of sorts with the audience voting on their favourite. They then, we think, voted on an ultimate winner from the three heats with a prize going to the winner.

Particularly noted for its highly irritating use of comedy sound effects.

Inventor

Names have been removed to protect the guilty.

Despite being critically mauled, it maintained its Friday 8:30pm slot throughout its run.
