About The News Quiz
The News Quiz is a British topical panel game broadcast on BBC Radio 4. Since launching in 1977, the show, created by John Lloyd from an idea by Nicholas Parsons, has seen several hosts, including Barry Norman, Barry Took, Simon Hoggart, Sandi Toksvig, Miles Jupp and Andy Zaltzman, currently the host since series 103. The show involves four panellists, often comedians or journalists, who answer questions about events of the previous week, often leading to humorous and satirical exchanges. The show was adapted for television in 1981 and has also inspired other shows, such as Have I Got News for You.
