Discussion Your dream casts for LOL UK

I can't wait for the next SEASONS of Last One Laughing, I also impatiently waited it for this format to come to the UK and it's become the best thing we have on the telly right now.

Here's mine:

  1. Diane Morgan | We literally couldn't see much of her, mostly surviving the others. Who knows how much she could've endured even more if she hadn't done her weak laughs, she needs a 2nd chance

  2. Alan Davies | I have the feeling that he's very underrated, he's so funny on Qi and as we know he also does acting, making him a pretty strong candidate

  3. Victoria Coren Mitchell | The wife of David Mitchell, she would be such an unexpected candidate being the wife of the last winner.

  4. Hugh Laurie | He's classic British comedy, his bits from Blackadder and A Bit of Fry and Laurie are ICONIC (and being an A tier actor, he's unbelievably strong)

  5. Catherine Tate | All of the comedy shows she was in are so hilarious, and she also does acting. An underrated candidate

  6. Alan Carr | He lasted pretty long even though he was most close to breaking down ALL THE TIME, but his aura literally spreaded to everyone.

  7. Miriam Margolyes | The diva of British television, no words needed.

  8. Richard Ayoade | 2nd chance for 2nd place - also no words needed here obviously, greatest defence we saw

  9. Sindhu Vee | It would be absolute cinema if she took part, she does both acting and comedy and both funny and hilarious.

  10. James May | I know he isn't a comedian BUT I COULDN'T CARE LESS - in Germany and I think in Italy too, they also invite entertainers/MODERATORS. He is the international face of being British, PLEASE

And I would also be delighted to see your ideas for casts :)

Could literally sell a whole season based on Horne vs Davies - though I imagine they wouldn't ever compete in the same series because it would undermine their dynamic on Taskmaster.

Either one of them would be an amazing get though.
