Heads Up with Richard Herring or HUWRH, is a British celebrity chat show written by and starring Richard Herring, who is best known as one half of comedy duo Lee and Herring, the stars of BBC Two shows Fist of Fun and This Morning With Richard Not Judy. HUWRH featured professional poker players and celebrities talking about their lives, their careers and their love of poker. The title is a reference to poker terminology, meaning a game where only two players remain at the end of the game. Richard would interview each guest individually during the show.
The show was hosted in an evening chat show format in front of a studio audience. It was the first UK produced Poker chatshow. The regular structure features an opening monologue by Richard followed by interviews with three guests from the world of poker and entertainment.
This programme first aired in 2005 on the Sky Digital channel Pokerzone in the United Kingdom.
