The comedy competition, which traps a group of comedians in a room and forbids them from smiling or laughing, with the one who abstains for the longest being crowned the winner, will be back on our screens for a third season in 2027. The Halloween edition is set to air later in 2026.

Comedian Jimmy Carr will return to present both the third season and Halloween special, alongside deputy Roisin Conaty, with the pair "challenging a new lineup of comedians to keep a straight face while trying to make their opponents laugh", according to the streamer.

The second season of Last One Laughing is currently underway on Prime Video, with new episodes dropping weekly until the finale on 2 April.

The show's sophomore outing features stars including Alan Carr, Romesh Ranganathan, Mel Giedroyc, David Mitchell and defending champion Bob Mortimer.

Mortimer recently told Radio Times magazine that he doesn't think his previous victory gave him an advantage.

He explained: "The moment I walked in, I thought, 'No, it’s an entirely different dynamic'. I think the first three that I clocked were Alan Carr, Romesh and David, and I thought, 'Uh-oh, I have no chance. This is tough.'"

Speaking about knowing some of the younger comedians less, he added: "That’s one of the joys of doing the show. As silly as it sounds, you can get quite close to people in those intense six hours.

"At my age, you like seeing young people doing good, and they were really funny. It was a joy.”

Last One Laughing UK season 2, episodes 1-3, are out now on Prime Video. Season 1 is available to stream in full now.
