<P> In recent years, the late - night weekend repeat has occasionally contained extra material from the week's recording . This became a permanent feature from the spring 2007 series, with the repeat having a running time of 40 minutes, and being titled (in the TV listings) Have I Got a Bit More News for You . </P> <P> The programme is recorded at the London Studios, former home of London Weekend Television, although the 2001 Election special episode was recorded at BBC Television Centre on the Friday morning after the election . The quiz aspect and scores are largely ignored in favour of the panellists' witty exchanges and jokes, and the format seems to change frequently . </P> <P> "There's been a lot of confusion, with people saying,' Well, they see the questions beforehand,' which we do," revealed Merton in 1999 . "But some people say we see the answers, which we don't, because that would rob it of being a quiz ." </P> <P> "There is a certain amount of show business that goes on in putting on a show," continued Merton . "We found very early on that it's worth seeing the questions beforehand so that you can work out your depth of ignorance . If you really don't know, you think,' Well, I've really got to try and say something here .' It's much better to be doing that for ten or fifteen minutes before the show than be doing it when the cameras are rolling, in front of an audience, going,' Well, who's he?"' </P>
