The Blame Game

Random draw open

The Blame Game returns!

The Blame Game remains one of our most popular ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ recordings in Northern Ireland… and it’s making a welcome return to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Northern Ireland television, radio, iPlayer and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds.

Our regular panellists – Tim McGarry, Colin Murphy, Diona Doherty and Neil Delamere – will be casting a satirical eye over what’s been going wrong with the world and telling us who is to blame. And they will be joined by visiting comedians with their own take on people and events in the news.

You can expect topical, and sometimes edgy, humour that pushes boundaries, challenges authority and makes life seem a little brighter – whatever might be happening in the news.
Ìý
We know that there’s always a high level of demand for Blame Game tickets, so tickets will be allocated by random draw.

You can apply for a maximum of two tickets per recording and in order to maximise the opportunity for as many different people as possible to attend, successful applicants will only be allocated tickets for one show in this series.

You can register at any time until 8amÌý24 October 2025.
