Victoria Coren Mitchell is hosting (making this her 20th time in the presenter's chair & 28th time on the show overall) with panellists presenter/journalist Stacey Dooley and comedian/writer Andy Hamilton joining team captains Paul Merton and Ian Hislop as they delve into the news.
Have I Got News for You is a British television panel show produced by Hat Trick Productions for the BBC. It is based loosely on the BBC Radio 4 show The News Quiz, and has been regularly broadcast since 1990. The show has cultivated a reputation for sailing close to the wind in matters of libel with its topical and satirical remit.
Have I Got News for You is often cited as beginning the increasing domination of panel shows in British TV comedy, and remains one of the genre's key standard-bearers.
Angus Deayton was the presenter for episodes 1 to 198. He was sacked and from 199 onwards the guest presenter varies each episode.
