About This Program ✦
The programme is an episode of the Midnight Gameshow, a late‑night television format that stages unexpected stunts and challenges. In this particular instalment, the host Michael makes a surprise intrusion into Jonathan Ross’s bedroom, turning the private space into a makeshift set for the show’s antics. The episode also features Rylan, who is drawn into a round of the game called Remember Me. During this segment, he is asked to recall details under the pressure of the show’s time‑limited format, adding a layer of quick‑thinking competition to the broadcast. A further highlight involves the pop group Westlife, who are led to believe they are participating in a genuine television programme. Unaware that the production is a fabricated set‑up, they go through the filming process as if it were a regular TV appearance, only to discover later that the whole scenario was a staged ruse. Together, these three pieces – Michael’s bedroom break‑in, Rylan’s Remember Me challenge, and Westlife’s fake‑show deception – make up the core content of the episode, delivering a mix of surprise, quick‑fire trivia and light‑hearted trickery for viewers tuning in at midnight.
Michael McIntyre's Big Show broadcasts on BBC One East HD at 12:10am, Friday, 13 February 2026. (Subtitles, repeat)
