HIGNFY UK question

[David Bruggeman]

Hello,

Have I Got News For You posted the recent episode that Roy Wood, Jr. hosted on the UK edition.

I noticed that there are YT videos of episodes titled Have I Got News For You and Have I Got a Bit More News For You (which is about 15 minutes longer).  Are both versions broadcast in the UK or is the Bit More edition an online-only thing?

Best,

David

[Jon Delfin]

the extended version airs a couple of days later; both are available on YouTube (yay!)

Yep. The regular edition goes out on a Friday night in a 30 minute time slot. But they usually tape for up to two hours at the recording session the evening before, so it's not hard to do a longer edit that as Jon says, goes out on Mondays at 10:40pm (after the main evening news). 

The longer edit also neatly makes a commercial hour when it gets repeated on "Dave" (or "U&Dave" as the channel has been bizarrely renamed). And yes, the topical news show, does indeed get repeated months/years after its initial airing. 

QI also gets the same 30/45 minute edits treatment, with the longer version known as QI XL.
