Never Mind The Buzzcocks
Never Mind The Buzzcocks is a
surreal comedy panel game show with a
pop and
rock music theme produced for the
BBC, and usually aired on
BBC TWO. The title is a play on the title of the
Sex Pistols Never Mind The Bollocks album and the band
The Buzzcocks. In the show celebrities, usually comedians and musicians, are given tasks such as guessing what song their team mates are attempting to recreate (with no instruments or props) and guessing which of three implausible stories about a popular musician are true. The show has been running since
1996, presented by Mark Lamarr and featuring regular team captains
Phill Jupitus, Sean Hughes (1996-2002) and
Bill Bailey (2002-).
