Virtually Famous is a British comedy panel game show most recently presented by Chris Ramsey.[1] In each episode, two teams of three panelists compete. The teams were, in the final series, captained by Vicky Pattison and Seann Walsh.[1] The questions and the tasks are about items found on the internet.[2]

The programme made its debut on E4 on 21 July 2014 with Kevin McHale as host and Chris Stark as team captain opposite Walsh. On 26 November 2014, it was announced that the show had been recommissioned for a second and third series.[3] For the fourth and final series, Chris Ramsey replaced McHale as host and Vicky Pattison replaced Stark as team captain.[4]
