Best panel show host

I'm going for Mark Lamaar.

With Stephen Fry in second place.

And Vic and Bob in joint third.

Angus Deayton

Dara O'Brian (sp)

I think Martin Freeman did an awesome job when he guest hosted on NMTB.

Angus Deayton

Thats a good call. Forgot about him. Even on Would I Lie To You? he still brings it.

Brian Blessed was funny when he did HIGNFY! But Angus Deayton does seem to have the natural quick wit to host and unlike most panel show hosts can read an autocue without it being obvious they are reading it!

Martin Clunes on HIGNFY.

Vic and Bob.

I agree with these, not in any particular order though. They each suit their type of panel show.
Dara O'Briain is good too, I don't watch MTW but think he's good at being a host.

Vic & Bob's panel show is strictly a vehicle for themselves though.
I don't think they'd be good as a guest presenter on any other panel show.
Maybe Bob on his own.

Bob actually did do one on his own, though I forget what it was now.

About time you proved me right on something Stott!

That was a brilliant episode! :D

I love Mark Lamar too, Keith Lemon is another favourite.

Not sure about hosting but Bob was a guest on Buzzcocks and wound Mark Lamarr up. It was a joy to see.
:D
