    British broadcasters have always struggled to create quality TV shows about video games. Aside from Gameswipe and Videogame Nation, few programmes have done the medium justice. Just look at the response to GTA docudrama The Gamechangers. Still, every so often a production company will take another crack at the idea. The latest attempt is Go 8 Bit, a game show presented by comedian Dara Ó Briain (who is also doing the Robot Wars reboot) and video game journalist Ellie Gibson. The first series will air on Dave this autumn and consist of six 60-minute episodes.
