They Think It's All Over is a British comedy panel game that incorporates a sporting theme. The show was produced by Talkback and aired on BBC One. The title of the program is derived from a famous commentary quotation, which is also used as the final line of every episode. The quotation is from Kenneth Wolstenholme's 1966 World Cup commentary, in which he says they think it's all over, it is now. The show was on the air for a number of years before being cancelled.
