List of Insert Name Here episodes
Insert Name Here is a BBC comedy panel game television show that began in 2016. It is presented by Sue Perkins and features Josh Widdicombe and Richard Osman as team captains. Each episode comprises the two teams of three competing to answer questions about famous people, past and present, who share the same first name or any similar derived name; for example the first episode was titled Frank but Sue said questions will also be asked on people called Francis, Frankie and Fanny. The first episode premiered on BBC Two on 4 January 2016. As of 27 February 2019, 28 episodes have been produced and broadcast across four series, including three Christmas specials. The show was canceled in February 2020 due to low viewership.[1]
