Dara O Briain's Go 8 Bit - Season 3

Season 3

Award-winning comedian and well-known gaming and technology fan Dara O Briain hosts this third, brand new, ten-part comedy series celebrating the world of video games.

Part comedy panel show, part physical game show and wholly competitive, each week Dara is joined by his core team of respected games expert and comedian Ellie Gibson and comedians and team captains, gaming fan Steve McNeil and gaming muggle Sam Pamphilon.

The series cherry-picks 50 video games from the past four decades including classics such as Defender, Gauntlet, Super Mario Bros., Minecraft, The Sims, Tomb Raider, Aladdin, Football Manager, Rock Band, Worms Armageddon and Batman Arkham Asylum - all recorded in front of an interactive studio audience, who rate and score the teams via their smartphones.

The series also features twenty very competitive star guests; gaming fans and comedians (TBA) who battle it out - very vocally and passionately - over five of the video games, in a bid to become Go 8 Bit champions.
