Jimmy Carr puts a panel of A-list celebrities to the test as they battle it out to see who remembers most about the events of 2011.
At the end of her multi-award-winning year, Miranda Hart takes a seat on the panel for the first time. Also being inducted into the Big Fat Quiz Hall of Fame is legendary comedian Eddie Izzard.
To round off a trio of quiz virgins, Jamie Oliver swaps his saucepans for sarcasm. They're competing alongside Big Fat Quiz of the Year veterans Jonathan Ross, David Walliams and David Mitchell.
Can you remember which celebrity was winning in 2011? Which sportsman had his secrets spilled in the House of Commons? And how on earth did select committee hearings become the must-watch TV of the summer?
If you know the answer to all, some or even none of the above then join us to find out who will follow in the footsteps of Russell Brand, Simon Pegg, Noel Fielding, Ruth Jones and Alan Carr to vie for the Big Fat Quiz crown.
As usual, Jimmy will be calling on some seriously A-list question setters: Ian McKellen, Ricky Gervais, Will Ferrell, Quentin Tarantino and Sacha Baron Cohen have all turned up to lend a helping hand in previous years.
Whether you're a quiz wizard or if you'd rather sit back and let the celebs do all the hard work, don't miss The Big Fat Quiz of the Year - the perfect way to see out 2011.
