Who would you like to see taking part?

Following the huge success of its first series, Prime Video has announced that a second series will be airing in 2026, with filming taking place later this year.

Jimmy Carr will return in the host’s seat alongside a new line-up of comedians, which will be announced in due course.

Once again, he'll be challenging 10 of Britain’s funniest comics to spend the day together without so much as cracking a smile. Over the course of the series, they will use every ounce of their comedic talents to try and break their opponents without cracking up themselves.

Ahead of the show’s return, Jimmy Carr, said “I'm absolutely delighted that Last One Laughing is coming back for a second series. 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." 

Produced by Banijay UK labels Zeppotron and Initial, Last One Laughing UK, the latest adaptation of the successful Amazon Original series from Japan entitled Documental, created by and starring Hitoshi Matsumoto and owned by Yoshimoto Kogyo, where Matsumoto leads 10 comedians betting their own money in an anything goes “battle of laughter behind closed doors.”

The fan-favourite Last One Laughing format became the most watched title of all time on Prime Video in France, Germany and Italy, and had hugely successful local versions in over 20 territories with hosts including Graham Norton in Ireland, Rebel Wilson in Australia and Trevor Noah in South Africa.
