Dara O Briain's Go 8 Bit is the UK's next video game TV show
Starring Eurogamer favourite Ellie Gibson!
We had GamesMaster in the nineties. Thumb Bandits in the noughties. Now, in the twenty-tens, we've got Go 8 Bit.
Comedian, TV presenter and Metal Gear Solid lover Dara O Briain hosts Go 8 Bit, a new six-part series for Dave based on the live Edinburgh show of the same name.

Each week the show stars two celebrity guests who compete to be crowned 8 Bit Champion. There are two team captains: video gaming comedians Steve McNeil and Sam Pamphilon, creators of the original Edinburgh show.
Oh, and former Eurogamer favourite Ellie Gibson is also involved!
