During Comic Relief 2011 David Walliams took on a challenge to see how many panel shows he could take part in, within 24 hours. It started on March 5th 2011 and went into March 6th.
Of the footage shot only 5 x 30 minute shows were broadcast (on BBC3) and then highlights were shown on BBC1.
Of those 5 episodes Jimmy (as host of 8 Out of 10 Cats) appeared in Episode 1 (aired March 13th) and the compilation of highlights in Episode 5 (aired March 17th).
I can’t find a full list of the shows (or which order they were filmed in) and the hosts could not be guessed at as many shows did not feature their regular host.
