You're Back in the Room is a British television game show that was broadcast on ITV from 14 March 2015 to 9 April 2016. The show is hosted by Phillip Schofield and starred Keith Barry. The premise consists of contestants who have to complete a series of normally straightforward tasks after being subject to "deep hypnosis", causing them to be compelled to develop various distracting tics or quirks that hinder their ability to compete.
A second series consisting of four episodes was announced on 21 July 2015 and began airing on 12 March 2016.
On 7 October 2016, it was announced that the show had been axed.

Reception The show has received mixed reviews; Sarah Deen, in a Metro article, summarised that "everyone either completely loved or absolutely hated [the show]".

Sam Wollaston gave the programme a mixed review, describing it as "quite funny for a while", but said it went "backwards from Brown to McKenna". Ben Travis of the Evening Standard described the show as "watchably daft". Benji Wilson from The Daily Telegraph gave the show a very positive review, opining that it is "significantly funnier than anything else on TV".
