Have I Got News for You is back this autumn, the BBC has confirmed; and luckily, fans don\u2019t have to wait too long for the batch of brand new episodes, which will begin airing from Friday 2nd September on BBC One.<\/p>\n

The new release marks a change for the long-running programme which usually returns later in the year, but this year has been pushed forward to accommodate the BBC\u2019s World Cup coverage and avoid clashing with matches.<\/p>\n

The premiere date itself is no coincidence, however, as it is Boris Johnson\u2019s last evening at 10 Downing Street, which of course will provide plenty of fodder for the show\u2019s political satire.<\/p>

The broadcaster has also revealed the episode\u2019s title which takes aim at Britain\u2019s soon-to-be former Prime Minister: Have I Got News for Boris \u2013\u00a0A Special Tribute.<\/p>\n

The BBC has teased that the episode will be \u201ca romp through the soon-to-be ex-Prime Minister\u2019s career and his distinctive contribution to British politics, on the eve of his departure.\u201d<\/p>\n
