Line 2: [[File:ShootingStars.jpg\|frame\|From left to right: Vic Reeves, Mark Lamarr, Bob Mortimer, and Ulrika Jonsson.]] {{quote\|''"I've been on some loony shows in my time, but this one takes the cake."''\|'''[[I Dream of Jeannie\|Larry Hagman]]''', after appearing on the show in 2002. }} ~~'''[[I Dream of Jeannie\|Larry Hagman]]''', after appearing on the show in 2002. }}~~ Brainchild of British surrealist comedians [[Vic Reeves Big Night Out\|Vic Reeves]] and [[The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer\|Bob Mortimer]], and a loving parody of British celebrity [[Panel Games]]. The questions made little sense, the answers made ''no'' sense, and the top prize could be as much as £120. Line 59 ⟶ 58: * [[Panel Game]] * [[The Points Mean Nothing]]: And there's no logic involved in gaining them either. Vic and Bob have ''no'' idea what the scorekeeper is going to say when they ask him to announce the scores. * [[Really Gets Around]]: Ulrika Jonsson is, as we were frequently told in 2002, [[Crowning Moment of Funny\|football crazy]], even football mad<ref> "He's [[The Beautiful Game\|football]] crazy, he's football mad" was a lyric from a popular song in Britain, and lives on as a [[MeMemetic MeMutation]]</ref> , to the point where Bob Mortimer couldn't think of a footballer that Ulrika hadn't had. * [[Reunion Show]] * [[Revival]]: Twice. Line 72 ⟶ 71: * [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: Will Self and then Jack Dee for Mark Lamarr, Angelos Epithemiou for Jonny Vegas, and the Wonderful ''Wonderful'' Car and Donald Cox the Sweaty Fox for the Dove From Above. ** As of Series 7, Angelos Epithemiou for George Dawes, due to Matt Lucas' filming commitments. * [[Running Gag]]: Vic Reeves' jokes about Jack Dee's face. Jack remains deadpan throughout, but ~~ocassionally~~occasionally becomes [[Not So Stoic]]. * [[Who's on First?]]: "What is the unit of power?" Vic never got it. ** There are questions like this every now and again. Recently; "What is the English translation of ''Pardonnez-moi''?"
