The comedy series Last One Laughing UK has been renewed for a second season by Amazon Prime Video.
In Last One Laughing UK, a group of comedians gather together to make each other laugh and are eliminated if they chuckle.
It is a format that has proven popular across the globe, with Prime Video having localized versions in South Africa (hosted by Trevor Noah), Australia (hosted by Rebel Wilson), Mexico (hosted by Eugenio Derbez), Germany (hosted by Michael “Bully” Herbig), and Ireland (hosted by Graham Norton)
The UK format is hosted by Jimmy Carr and has featured lauded comedians including Bob Mortimer, Daisy May Cooper and Richard Ayoade.
“I’m absolutely delighted that Last One Laughing is coming back for a second series," said Carr in a statement. I think what’s happened is someone high up at Amazon has clicked ‘subscribe & save’ on Prime Video and, hey presto, we’re back in business. I’m so pleased people had as much fun watching the first season as we had making it. Can’t wait to bask in the reflected glory of the next 10 comedy legends taking on the challenge.”
Last One Laughing is produced by Banijay UK labels Zeppotron and Initial. The original format, Japan’s Documental, is available in more than 20 territories.
