It just happens that BBC Radio 4 started last week on Tuesday nights in
their 6:30 p.m. comedy/panel/quiz slot a show called "The Birthday Cake
Game," which is a panel show with a similar premise.  It's hosted by
Richard Osman, the sidekick to Alexander Armstrong on BBC1 TV's "Pointless"
game show (and host of "Richard Osman's House of Games," which comes on
after "Pointless" goes off at 6 p.m. on BBC2) and is produced by the same
company that produces those TV shows.  Of course, this show is dependent on
a panel that's witty or caustic and based on the first episode the show
isn't really there yet.  Available in podcast form off of BBC Sounds and
probably the usual podcast feeders that take Beeb podcasts.
