Synopsis
Surprisingly freeform panel game where the game is based around the celebrity host, who changes each week - in a neat reversal, it's the panel of comedians that remains the same. Said comics have a week to mug up on the biography of said celeb and try to answer the questions, often revolving around choice anecdotes from their autobiography.
The warm-up round involves the comics providing a satirical shortened version of the host's life. The middle bit is varied, and there's the obligatory buzzer round at the end. Quite silly and quite funny.
