Notes[]

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7 1.8 Christmas Special
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 Noel Fielding was the temporary replacement for Bill Bailey in Series 21 episodes 2-4
  3. This episode was pulled by the BBC due to the scandal where Brand (and Jonathan Ross) made rude phone calls to Andrew Sachs. It was finally broadcast three years later.
  4. Doctor Who special
  5. During the Identity Parade round, Phill and Noel swapped teams for the rest of the episode so Phill could get the "Jedward experience". However, Jack Dee still awarded the win to "Noel's old team". Also during the Identity Parade, Jedward swapped places with Pat Sharp, who was made a captain for the duration of the round.
  6. The episode started with Marvin Humes from JLS on Phill's team whilst the other members of the band sat on a subs bench to the side. During the episode, Tim Westwood would set off an alarm, and JLS would substitute another member onto the panel. The entire band performed with Phill in the Intros round.
  7. During the Intros round, Pat Sharp joined Noel's team to make up for all of JLS joining up on Phill's team.
  8. The episode ended in a draw, so a tiebreak game of "How Many Mobys Are There?" was played, which Noel's team won.
  9. Phill was unable to attend this recording, so Frankie Boyle took his place.
  10. In the Christmas episode, John Barrowman incorrectly states that Phill's team won 7 shows to Noel's 5, but Noel won 6 of his shows so this is not the case.
