Famous for his dark humour, one liners and THAT laugh, Jimmy Carr challenges 10 of Britain’s funniest comics to spend the day together without so much as cracking a smile. The 10 comics use every ounce of their comedic talents to try and break their opponents without cracking up themselves.
The peaks and the valleys. Find the essential episodes — and the ones to skip.
Two hours to go, so it’s time for one player to unleash her comedy grenade. Jimmy sends a comic back in to play gameshow host, some intimate details are revealed, and the Ronaldo and Messi of comedy face off in a memorable Head-to-Head.
It’s the last episode and the cards come thick and fast, as the finalists throw everything they’ve got at each other. The comedians try to hit the high notes as Jimmy sets a singing challenge with a difference, there’s an epic head-to-head battle, and it’s a photo finish as our final two race to be crowned the winner.
It’s carnage in there as Jimmy starts to dish out the cards. Meanwhile, Rob Beckett pays a touching tribute to his grandma and there’s a sprinkling of magic from Bob Mortimer. Plus, when someone breaks the rules, Jimmy decides it’s time for an old school punishment.
Jimmy Carr oversees the chaos while Bob Mortimer, Daisy May Cooper, Harriet Kemsley, Joe Lycett, Joe Wilkinson, Judi Love, Lou Sanders, Rob Beckett, Richard Ayoade, Roisin Conaty and Sara Pascoe try to make each other laugh without cracking a smile.
