4 Episodes
- The Big Fat Quiz of the 80s
E1The Big Fat Quiz of the 80sJimmy Carr hosts the first of three special editions of the Big Fat Quiz series, beginning with an irreverent look back at the almost unrecognisable decade of the 1980s when the Tories were in power, the whole world tuned in to watch a Royal wedding and it looked like war in the Falklands was inevitable. Who sang while the Berlin Wall fell? What was the Hand of God? And who were the Brat Pack? Whether you know some of the answers or are totally clueless, reminisce with the celebrities as they go back in time. Jonathan Ross, Jason Manford, Stephen Mangan, Micky Flanagan and Carol Vorderman - with appearances from Michael Fish, Su Pollard, John Craven and many more - compete to decide who can remember the most about the 1980s. - The Big Fat Quiz of the 90s
E2The Big Fat Quiz of the 90sJimmy Carr hosts the second of three special editions of the Big Fat Quiz series, and if the 90s taught us anything it was how to delete our internet history! But why did we stop eating burgers? How did Magic Eye work? And who were Papa and Nicole? Join Phill Jupitus, Jack Whitehall, Alan Davies, Claudia Winkleman and Denise Van Outen, with guest appearances by Wolf from Gladiators, Michael Buerk, Chesney Hawkes, and Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer as they celebrate the 1990s. - The Big Fat Quiz of the 00s
E3The Big Fat Quiz of the 00sJimmy Carr hosts the third and final of the special editions series. And as we fondly look back at this period we may well think, 'blimey, could we really not come up with a better name than the noughties'? Embarrassing, if anything.\n\nSo why did the US briefly rename French Fries? How did the Crazy Frog cause controversy? And what on earth was Touch the Truck? If you haven't got a clue about any of the above questions then it's probably time you were in bed!\n\nIf you do, then join guests Alan Carr, Kevin Bridges, David Mitchell, Sarah Millican, Richard Ayoade and Noel Fielding with special guest appearances from Duncan Bannatyne, Greg Wallace, McFly and Peter Andre as they give the noughties the Big Fat Quiz treatment. - The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2012
E4The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2012Jimmy Carr puts another panel of celebrities to the test as they battle it out to see who remembers most about 2012. What did Prince Harry get up to in Vegas? Why were we all talking about pasties and sausage rolls? And how did Usain Bolt celebrate his amazing 200m win at the Olympics? If you know the answer to all, some or even none of the above, then join us as a host of big names, including Jonathan Ross, Russell Howard, Jack Whitehall and James Corden, vie for the coveted Big Fat Quiz crown. As usual, Jimmy will be calling on some seriously A-list question-setters, with Seth Rogen, Jack Black, Ricky Gervais, Will Ferrell, Quentin Tarantino and Sacha Baron Cohen all turning up to lend a helping hand in previous years.
