This next show is one of my favourites. It is rather low in this list for a number of reasons but I think the main reason would be that it is more of a comedy show than a game show. It also features celebrities and public figures as opposed to the general public.
Have I Got News For You has run for 43 seasons and a total of 372 episodes have aired to date. The show is mainly focused on political satire and covers events in the news over the preceding week. As such it has covered many news stories that span various controversies and historical events. None perhaps had such an effect on the show than stories involving the host of the show Angus Deayton who presented the show for 12 years until he was embroiled in a controversy that ultimately lead to him being axed as presenter. Since then the show has run with a Guest host presentting each week.
