Virtually Famous was a UK panel show on E4 (on of C4’s offshoots) that ran from 2014-17. The show is aimed at the under 25 audience and is about “internet famous” people and viral clips.
Chris Ramsey hosted for the 4th and final series and Jimmy appeared on S4 Ep7 (Ep8 was the last show). This was Jimmy’s 2nd appearance on this show – the previous one being with host Kevin McHale (here).
Broadcast on January 31st 2017 there’s a short clip here – worth it for the Top Gear joke, but otherwise very inexplicably shouty. Just for clarity – making that joke doesn’t mean that he doesn’t love May, Clarkson and Hammond. Just a joke.
Finally, I’ll have to mention this as, otherwise, none of the clip will make any sense to anyone outside of the UK. The reference to a beanie and “video angle” (with Joel Dommett) refers to him being catfished into jerking off with a girl over Skype, followed by a blackmail attempt (he talks about it here).
