A Short History of Everything Else

Category: News Release

TX: Summer

Comedian Griff Rhys Jones hosts the brand new comedy panel show using archive TV clips to challenge players to give A Short History of Everything Else.

This six-part series will delve into our shared history through a mixture of memorable, odd and forgotten clips, providing new and alternative perspectives into our past.

Each week Griff will be joined by two regular team captains, Marcus Brigstocke (Have I Got News for You?, Argumental) and Charlie Baker (Never Mind the Buzzcocks) who, along with a guest, will try to prove that they remember more about ‘everything else' than the other team, adding their own irreverent interpretations along the way.

A Short History of Everything Else will provide an alternative view on our social history. Along with the archive gems, the banter from Griff and the panel will bring to life and celebrate the last few decades, from the sublime to the ridiculous, and the serious to the highly questionable.
