Fact Hunt (2005)
Overview
Fact Hunt is a comedic TV quiz show aired late at night on various ITV regions. It was hosted by Al Murray in character as the Pub Landlord, the character he has long played in stand-up routines and in the sitcom Time Gentlemen Please.
Fact Hunt was originally a section of Al Murray's Edinburgh stage show, whereby large members of the audience were invited on stage to answer questions, and the audience would shout out "Fact Hunt" - the joke being the phonetic similarity to 'Fat Cunt'.
The idea was further developed into a fictional pub quiz machine of the same name from a sitcom starring Al Murray called Time Gentlemen Please. This programme ran between 2000 and 2002 on Sky One and was the first time Al Murray's Pub landlord character was in a scripted sitcom format.
It wasn't until the success of Al Murray's main ITV show that a further spin off show wholly based on the quiz, which was called Fact Hunt.
