Get a fast-paced, irreverent look at the news of the world - and the weird! - with the launch trailer for the all new Original Special WAIT WAIT...DON'T TELL ME!: A ROYAL PAIN IN THE NEWS *** Premiering Friday Dec 23 at 8/7c *** only on BBC America.
BBC AMERICA and NPR are bringing the Peabody Award-winning radio quiz show to television with a 2011 year-in-review special. Join host Peter Sagal and official judge and scorekeeper Carl Kasell for an evening of informative fun as they lead a panel of both US and UK talent - including comedians Paula Poundstone, Alonzo Bodden and Nick Hancock - through 2011's biggest events. The Special looks back at the year's top stories from an American and British perspective and includes listener contests.
PLUS: award-winning writer Neil Gaiman (Coraline, The Sandman, Doctor Who: The Doctor's Wife) as the featured guest for the classic multiple-choice quiz segment "Not My Job."

@Arsnof The audio version should be up on NPR's site sometime this weekend. Gaiman said that less was cut from the radio version.

I love this show. Catch it every weekend, either by radio or by podcast. Can't wait to see Peter Sagal's ugly mug on TV.

@realspacemodels I've seen the show live a few times, and it was utterly fabulous, with all the fun of the radio broadcasts and then some. If the tv version can capture anything like that -- granting we still won't get all the glorious outtakes! -- I'll be one very contented little NPR nerd.

I can't wait (wait) to watch this. I hope the reality of the show matches the pictures that have been in my head listening to it on the radio (and podcasts) for the last twelve years!
