Shooting Stars

:This page is about the comedy game show, for the atmospheric phenomenon see Meteor.

Participants

There are two teams -Team A and Team B. Each team has a regular team captain - originally, Mark Lamarr and Ulrika Jonsson - and two celebrity guests. Lamarr left the series in 1997 as he disliked being in too many quiz shows at once, and was replaced by novelist Will Self when the series returned in 2002. At the same time comedian Johnny Vegas was brought in as a regular guest on Jonsson's team.

The "score" is kept by George Dawes, a drumming baby played by comedian Matt Lucas. (Occasionally George's "mother" Marjorie Dawes - also played by Lucas - appears instead. She also appears in Little Britain.)
