Hilarious, totally-irreverent, near-slanderous political quiz show, based mainly on news stories from the last week or so, that leaves no party, personality or action unscathed in pursuit of laughs.
Starring
Paul Merton, Ian Hislop, Angus Deayton, Alexander Armstrong, Jo Brand
User Reviews
Fine recap-of-the-news-with-comedy panel show. I'm pretty sure that is the genre.
Have I got news is a staple of British comedy tv it's funny and very watchable
Genuinely funny, would recommend you give it a watch. Not perfect, but every episode usually has a few laugh-out-loud momments. 8/10
Peak British Panel Show, always a great laugh and enjoy that they poke fun no matter who towards, meaning mostly anyone can watch and enjoy!
A classic but maybe just watch clips of this on YouTube
There are better formats of this sort of show out there but it’s not completely terrible.
Topical news comedy show. Can be good if you’re in the mood or it’s been a particularly interesting news cycle
Topical comedy show. Very hit or miss imo.
A proper British panel show, where you’ll need to get British humour to enjoy it
Good comedic weekly commentary, possibly more informative and critical than Mock the Week, but at the cost of being less funny
