You Have Been Watching Season 1
You Have Been Watching is a British comedy panel game presented by Charlie Brooker, produced by Zeppotron for Channel 4 and filmed at BBC Television Centre and Riverside Studios in London. It first aired on 7 July 2009, for a weekly eight-episode run. The show's title is a reference to sitcoms written by David Croft such as Dad's Army, 'Allo 'Allo!, Are You Being Served? and It Ain't Half Hot Mum which ended with the caption "You have been watching", which was then followed by the cast list. A second series of the show began on 15 April 2010 and ended prematurely by a week due to the Cumbria shootings; the final episode having been postponed because it is a crime special. The crime special was eventually broadcast on 4 August 2010, albeit airing on E4 rather than Channel 4.

You Have Been Watching Season 1 Full Episode Guide
Charlie hosts a special show that charts the highs and lows of 90s television - both home grown and from around the world. He gives his own take on 90s TV raunch and the shows that commanded the biggest following (but perhaps shouldn't have), and unearths some hidden gems that deserve a wider audience. His guests Phill Jupitus, Victoria Coren and Jack Whitehall discuss everything from ratings giants such as You Bet to the obscurity that was Ring My Bell.
David Mitchell, Ben Miller and Holly Walsh join Charlie Brooker in perusing the highs and lows of this week's TV world, including Desperate Romantics and Total Wipeout.
Frank Skinner, Frankie Boyle and Germaine Greer help Charlie assess the merits of the week's TV highlights, including Deal or No Deal and Dragons' Den.
The subject of this week's TV Club will be British TV staple Casualty. Charlie and his guests will also be sharing their views on BBC Three's Young, Dumb and Living Off Mum, and tackling the topic of extraordinary cookery shows.
