Synopsis
A press release told us
- How good is your short term memory? That's the question asked on "I Literally Just Told You", a new comedy quiz where the questions are written as the show is being filmed.
- Hosted by Jimmy Carr, each episode challenges four contestants to remember details of what has happened during the programme, including celebrity cameos and jokes, in a bid to win a prize of up to £25,000.
- In the final round, the two finalists set each other questions about what happened during the show - and the whole six hour recording session.
This programme has not yet aired. A full review will appear here after broadcast.

Trivia
Episode 2 was put on All 4 straight after episode 1. It was a good one.
On one episode, a contestant named Eddy lost out on £18,000 with a question based on the age of pop star Ariana Grande. However, despite talking about her age on the show, her specific age was never stated. Three weeks after the recording of said episode, Jimmy Carr invited Eddy on stage during his gig at the O2 Arena to inform him of this. He was subsequently presented with a cheque for £18,000 in front of the audience!
