A weekly topical panel show based around 'opinion polls, surveys and statistics'. It is hosted by Jimmy Carr and the current regular team captains are Sean Lock and Jason Manford.

Our Review: A fairly cheap, un-intelligent and forgettable panel show which is dragged down further by its poor guest selection (thick celebrities and ex-reality TV stars regularly appear).

However, the show does have its moments - thanks mostly to Jimmy Carr and Sean Lock. So, whilst not the best panel show ever made, if you've got nothing else to do on a Friday night it is an enjoyable enough way to pass half-an-hour.

8 Out of 10 Cats will be back for a 7th series later in the year.
