First hitting screens in 1981, Bullseye was originally presented by Jim Bowen. The darts-themed series saw three teams of contestants, which each consisted of an amateur darts player and a trivia expert, competing against each other to win cash and prizes, which included cars, caravans and luxury holidays, as well as less impressive items like sets of darts, goblets and rubber dolls of the show's mascot, Bully.

Initially running for 14 years, a revival was then released in 2006, hosted by Dave Spikey. A few months ago, it was announced Freddie would be taking over for a Christmas TV special, with the former Top Gear host saying the series was one of his childhood favourites. Ahead of the episode, two images have been released, with the first showing Freddie on set posting with a trophy of Bully.
