It's Your Round

Synopsis

Freeform comedy panel game in which four comedians - or, if the celebrity booker is having a particularly bad week, three comedians and Rick Wakeman - provide their own rounds for the others to play. Actually, it's not really that freeform, because the games have to fit into the general format of the show, giving all four panellists a chance to play, and awarding one or two points for a correct answer or successful contribution. Some rounds are Q&A based (e.g. Miles Jupp's "What Does My Dad Know?", in which panellists guessed whether Mr Jupp Sr knew the answer to a given question), others have a creative bent (e.g. Sara Pascoe's "Welcome To Romford" asked the panellists to compose a mock tourist advert for their home town, with a randomly-selected member of the audience choosing their favourite). If there's time at the end (which there usually isn't) the fifth and final round is a buzzer round (also called "It's Your Round") in which the panellists answer questions on each other.
