Last One Laughing UK Season 2: All-Star Comedy Lineup Revealed for Prime Video

Prime Video is set to bring back its hit comedy competition, 'Last One Laughing UK,' for a second season. The show, which challenges comedians to keep a straight face while trying to make others laugh, will feature a star-studded cast. Jimmy Carr returns as host, with Roisin Conaty as his deputy, overseeing a new group of Britain's funniest performers as they battle it out in a test of comedic stoicism.

Key Takeaways

  • Returning Champion: Bob Mortimer, the winner of Season 1, is back to defend his title.

  • New Contestants: A fresh lineup of ten comedians will compete, including David Mitchell, Diane Morgan, Romesh Ranganathan, Amy Gledhill, Maisie Adam, Mel Giedroyc, Alan Carr, Gbemisola Ikumelo, and Sam Campbell.

  • Host and Deputy: Jimmy Carr will host, with Roisin Conaty serving as his deputy.

  • Release Window: The second season is slated for release on Prime Video in early 2026.

  • Format: Ten comedians are locked in a room, tasked with making each other laugh without laughing themselves. Laughter leads to elimination, with the last one standing crowned the winner.

The Battle of the Straight Face

'Last One Laughing UK' is an adaptation of the successful Japanese format 'Documental.' The premise is simple yet challenging: ten comedians are placed together and must use all their comedic skills to make their rivals laugh, all while maintaining their own composure. Any contestant who cracks a smile or laughs is eliminated. The show is known for its surprise cameos and twists designed to test the players' resolve.

Season 2 Cast Revealed

Following the success of its inaugural season, which saw Bob Mortimer emerge victorious over a strong field including Daisy May Cooper and Joe Lycett, the second season boasts an impressive roster of talent. Joining Mortimer in the quest to avoid laughter are:

  • David Mitchell

  • Diane Morgan

  • Romesh Ranganathan

  • Amy Gledhill

  • Maisie Adam

  • Mel Giedroyc

  • Alan Carr

  • Gbemisola Ikumelo

  • Sam Campbell

What to Expect

Fans can anticipate the same high-stakes, laugh-out-loud (for the viewers, at least) format that made the first season a hit. Jimmy Carr will once again preside over the comedic chaos, guiding the audience through the comedians' attempts to out-jest each other. The show promises plenty of surprises and comedic ingenuity as the contestants vie for the title of the last one laughing.
