Dane Baptiste, Felicity Ward, Ivo Graham, Joel Dommett, London Hughes, Russell Kane, Seann Walsh, Tom AllenOriginally produced by BBC Studios in 2019.Takes the funniest routines from the UK’s best-loved comedians, and brings them side-splittingly to life in sketch form. Each act begins telling their story in front of a live audience. As they continue their narration on stage, there’s no need to picture the scene yourself – a surreal short-film reconstruction does the work for you. Every scene sees the comedians play the roles they were born to play – themselves. And as their voiceover describes the action, dialogue in the routines is lip-synced by the sketch performers.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
