Mock the Week is a weekly British topical satirical celebrity panel show, created by Dan Patterson and Mark Leveson. It is produced by Angst Productions and was broadcast on BBC Two from 5 June 2005 to 4 November 2022 and TLC since 1 February 2026. Presenter Dara Ó Briain and panellist Hugh Dennis appeared in every episode of the BBC series, with a variety of other stand-up comedians being regular, frequent, occasional or one-off guest panellists during the show's history. The format of the programme sees six comedians divided into two teams and performing on a faux game show, in which the quiz aspect of answering questions relating to major and regional news items, all taken from the week before each episode's filming, is sidelined to focus on satirical, topical discussions on news items, stand-up routines, and the use of improvisational comedy. Every series both on the BBC and TLC included a compilation episode showing notable scenes, out-takes and additional footage cut out after filming, with repeats of the BBC episodes being frequently shown on the channel U&Dave, with high viewing figures.
