10 O'Clock Live

10 O'Clock Live is a British comedy/news television programme presented by Charlie Brooker, Jimmy Carr, Lauren Laverne and David Mitchell.

The programme was commissioned following the success of Channel 4's Alternative Election Night, fronted by the same four presenters, in May 2010. The first series appeared in 2011, with two subsequent series broadcast in 2012 and 2013. In October 2014 it was confirmed the show will not be continuing.

The song "Bernie" by the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion was used for the show's theme.

Interactivity

The show has official Facebook and Twitter pages, to enable viewer interactivity whilst live on air. Polls were run via the Facebook page and comments received via both pages and read out by the presenters.

Format

Much of the show relies on the talents and characteristics of its hosts to form each segment.
