Overview

You've Been Framed! is a British television programme that features humorous home movies contributed by viewers for the entertainment of others. The series first aired on 14 April 1990 and concluded its run on 27 August 2022. Throughout its broadcast history, the show employed several hosts and narrators. Jeremy Beadle served as the host from Series 1 through Series 9. Following his tenure, Lisa Riley hosted the programme from Series 10 to Series 14. Johnathan Wilkes took over hosting duties for Series 15. Beginning with Series 16, Harry Hill provided the narration for the show. The format of the programme relied on the submission of amateur footage from the public, which was then compiled and presented to the audience. By focusing on everyday mishaps and comedic moments captured on home video, the series maintained its premise throughout its thirty-two-year history on television. The programme remains a notable example of viewer-contributed content in British broadcasting, spanning various presenters and a significant duration of time before its final episode aired in August 2022.
