The release date for the new comedy series hosted by Graham Norton has been revealed.

‘LOL: Last One Standing Ireland’ will feature a host of Irish comedians after the show’s format enjoyed success in many other countries.

Irish names in the comedy industry such as Aisling Bea, Deirdre O’Kane, Amy Huberman, Jason Byrne, and David McSavage are all expected to make an appearance.

‘LOL: Last One Standing’ will also feature comedic talent such as Catherine Bohart, Emma Doran, Martin Angolo, Paul Tylak, and Tony Cantwell all feature.

The trailer for the new show dropped today and confirmed that the comedy show will be available to stream on Prime Video from Friday, January 19th.

The premise of the show will see Graham Norton oversee the ten comedians who will be brought together to make each other laugh.

They can use any and every unpredictable comedic tool in the box so long as they don’t laugh themselves.

The comedian to manages to not break into laughter will be crowned over the winner and awarded €50,000 for their charity of choice.

In the trailer, all comedians can be seen fighting to hold in their laughter and, eventually, failing to do so with Norton flashing a red card up at them for breaking the only rule.

The format has been widely popular on Prime Video, becoming the most-watched title in France, Germany, and Italy.

It was also well received after airing in Sweden, Mexico, Spain, Canada, Colombia, the Netherlands, Brazil, India, Argentina, and Australia.
