The Underdog Show was a six-week television series presented by Julian Clary and his dog, Valerie.
[1] The show on BBC2 featured celebrities Julia Sawalha, Anton du Beke, Clive Anderson, Huey Morgan, Mishal Husain, Selina Scott, Kirsty Gallacher and Theo Paphitis pairing up with untrained rescue dogs for a Crufts-style competition.
Every week, one duo was eliminated by a panel of three professional judges Kay Lawrence, Annie Clayton and Peter Purves and the viewers via telephone voting.
Steve Mann of Alpha Dog training School was the successful trainer of eventual winners, Selina and Chump.
The numbers in brackets e.g. (8th) denote the final position the celebrity finished in, not the order they were eliminated.
