At the same time comedian Johnny Vegas was brought in as a regular guest on Jonsson's team, where he had a pint of Guinness on his desk where all the other contestants had water. The costume Lucas wore for this performance later became an inspiration for his Little Britain character Andy. The title of the show is a pun on the fact that much of the humour is at the expense of the guest stars.

In the impressions round, contestants have to guess what song Reeves is singing (incomprehensibly) in the style of an incoherent nightclub singer. A serious question was asked requesting what a man's T-shirt read, only for Mark to make something up and then Vic saying his traditional "UVAVU!

He keeps saying that he'll use something later which he has discarded such as an eggshell, while Juliette twice appears asking if he would like any help, only to be turned away. Guests in this series include Paddy McGuinness, Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine and Ricky Wilson from the Kaiser Chiefs. George's Song" - as one of the options on the Dove - is replaced by "Angelos Epithemou's Variety Showcase" in which Angelos performs a short skit, often involving dancing or a parody of a magic show. The joke would always fall flat, often accompanied by tumbleweed blowing across the floor of the studio.

In the "Dove from Above" round and subsequent versions of the round, if a contestant answers incorrectly, Vic says "UVAVU" / uː ˈ v ɑː v uː/ and pulls a silly face. and featured various rounds from the shows, as well as a 45-minute CD of the Club Singer round, allowing you to play a full game of Shooting Stars in your own home. In the sketch, Lucas plays on highlighting Jamie's then constant use of the word pukka, constantly using the word while making sandwiches for a party in which he has invited his friends along (which he often used to do on his show, including the Sainsbury's adverts).These included " Lesbians", "Everybody's Talkin' About Football", " Hip Hop Is The Best", "1942" (appeared in the 15-year special, while being a song about inventions such as floors, trees, shoes and the 'flu) and even a rendition of the Rentaghost theme song. Alternatives to the dove in various series included "The Blue Suitcase" in the pilot, "The Crow from Below", "The Vest from the West", Matt Lucas as "George Dawes from the Upper Floors," "The Wonderful, Wonderful Car", "Donald Cox – The Sweaty Fox," "The Fly from Upon High" and "The Beast from the East.

If the contestant chooses a certain, prize-winning option, he pulls another face and says "ERANU" / ɪəˈr ɑː n uː/. The first general round usually contains "true or false" questions, but contains other questions as well, including a regular "Who is Hitler" question in which the contestants must identify which celebrity has been disguised as Adolf Hitler. The prize awarded for the final game, rather than being surreal, is instead laughably small: examples include "a cassette of Reggae", "a can of tropical drink", and "this wonderful toothpick holder".Martin Clunes and Robbie Williams both made two appearances as a panellist, once on Series One and once on video exclusive Unviewed and Nude, Clunes was also featured as a "mystery celebrity" in series two. He would also provide a sound effect to signal the end of timed rounds: in earlier series this was a simple scream, but later became random phrases ("Leakage"), sometimes in regional accents ("That's it; I'm turning the car around and we're going back to Dorset! The film clip round always included a clip that was related to the question, but the answer to the question was never shown in the film just like the lyrics of George Dawes' songs, despite Bob Mortimer as a running gag saying to watch or listen carefully.

The video clips (and the "Hartlepool re-enactments") are removed from the Dove round and replaced by "celebrity questions", in which a question is asked in a video clip by Vic or Bob while dressed up as another celebrity. There are now only three rounds; a general round, the Dove from Above round, and the quick-fire round. In addition to the 'regulars', the panel consisted of other celebrities from music, sports, politics and other fields. Spoof magic tricks appear frequently elsewhere in this series, including a regular routine with a magic box at the beginning of each show (although many of the tricks are obviously done by camera cuts or editing).Other regular skits integrated into the show include a conversation with kebab van owner "Angelos Epithemiou" (actually comedian Renton Skinner), and an attempt to "cheer up Jack Dee" by playing him a song using drain pipes. An anniversary edition entitled All New Shooting Stars was shown on 30 December 2008, celebrating the 15th anniversary of the show.
