It broadcast from studios in Battersea, London, England, and it was usually seen on Sky Digital.
Its mascot was a dog called Jack who barked each time a caller was selected and put through to the studio.
TGBBQ was live every day and broadcast hours varied, from 9:00 am to 1:00 am in its heyday, to 20:00 pm until 4:00 am as the quiz TV boom came to an end.
On 4 May 2007, TGBBQ ceased operating due to Play To Win TV entering liquidation.
It was based in the same studio as The Great Big British Quiz but used different effects and games.
