Never Mind the Buzzcocks

Each week team captains Phill Jupitus and Noel Fielding are joined by an impressive line-up of guest hosts, including John Hannah, Peter Andre and Iggy Azalea for this legendary, satirical, pop music themed game show.

Celebrity guests from the worlds of entertainment and music will join the team captains as the weekly guest host navigates them through a number of musically based quiz rounds.

The Luke McQueen Pilots

Last year, BBC Three commissioned Talkback to produce three pilots fronted by comedian Luke McQueen in a bid to nurture him as a future face of the channel. However, the pilots did not go to plan and Luke has been protesting the decision to broadcast them ever since.

Luke staged a protest outside Broadcasting House but, despite his best endeavours, the first episode of The Luke McQueen Pilots dropped on iPlayer and the series aired weekly on BBC Three.

The three-part series features Luke trying his hand at fronting three different genres that have previously proven popular with BBC Three’s core youth demographic. The first is an investigative documentary in the vein of those by Stacey Dooley and Reggie Yates titled Britain’s Hidden Vampire Crisis. The second is Sex with My Father, a comedy travelogue in which Luke is accompanied by his father, inspired by similar acclaimed shows fronted by Romesh Ranganathan and Jack Whitehall. The third pilot The Luke Of Love sees Luke take part in a reality dating format akin to ITV2’s Love Island.

Lemon La Vida Loca

Keith’s Lemon’s spoof reality show that offers completely uncensored, no-holds barred access to his eventful private life. In the show Keith is laid bare – often in the bedroom, sometimes in the kitchen and even on his driveway.

The first series aired on ITV 2 in August 2012 and was followed by a two Christmas specials. A second series aired in May and June 2013.

In 2013 it was nominated for ‘Best Entertainment Programme’ at the Broadcast Digital Awards.

Coming in America

Having reached the top of the game in the UK – in his eyes at least – Keith Lemon wants to become famous in America and he’s taking some of his best-known characters along with him for the ride.

Whether it’s becoming a successful Hollywood actor, making a name for himself as a ubiquitous TV personality or his number one wish of hosting his own hit chat US show Keith will do whatever it takes to overcome the odds in the pursuit of fame – after all, if James Corden can do it, then why not Keith?

So Keith – and some of his hilarious alter-egos such as The Urban Fox and The Big Fat Gypsy Kardashians – is off to Los Angeles to try to achieve his dream. Luckily for us he’s allowed a camera crew to record his every move and over the six-part series we’ll share his highs and lows as he seeks success in La-La Land.

Welcome to Keith Lemon: Coming In America.
