Notes
This week's episode was originally due to be the one with Russell Brand as team captain, however due to 'Sachsgate' dominating the media on the Wednesday, the order of episodes was changed so this episode was shown instead. The Russell Brand episode was eventually broadcast in 2011 (listing).

Tidy performance from James Corden
Last night it was Gavin and Stacey star James Corden. And at the risk of sticking my neck out, the pop quiz may have found the perfect team captain.
