Prime Video has unveiled the 10 comedians set to compete in the second season of 'Last One Laughing UK', with returning champion Bob Mortimer facing a formidable new line-up. The show, which challenges comedians to keep a straight face while trying to make others laugh, was a massive hit when it debuted in March this year.
Mortimer triumphed in the first season by making Richard Ayoade chuckle in the final. Now, he will defend his title against David Mitchell, Diane Morgan, Romesh Ranganathan, Amy Gledhill, Maisie Adam, Mel Giedroyc, Alan Carr, Gbemisola Ikumelo, and Sam Campbell. Jimmy Carr returns as host, alongside deputy Roisin Conaty.
The series is an adaptation of the Japanese format 'Documental', which has been replicated in over 20 territories, including Ireland and South Africa. The first season featured memorable moments such as Mortimer's 'Slender Ladies' song and Joe Wilkinson's RNLI speech, which garnered hundreds of thousands of YouTube views.
Prime Video's synopsis teases new twists and comedy cameos designed to break the contestants' composure. The rules remain simple: laugh and you're out. The second season promises to deliver the same tension and hilarity that made the first a hit.
