A third edition of the show will launch in 2027, although as yet, details on when it will air and the cast are still under wraps. <\/p>\n<p>On announcing the second season earlier this year, host Jimmy Carr said: \u201cI\u2019m absolutely delighted that <em>Last One Laughing<\/em> is coming back for a second series. I think what\u2019s happened is someone high up at Amazon has clicked \u2018subscribe &amp; save\u2019 on Prime Video and, hey presto, we\u2019re back in business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so pleased people had as much fun watching the first season as we had making it. Can\u2019t wait to bask in the reflected glory of the next 10 comedy legends taking on the challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"td-a-ad id_inline_ad2 id_ad_content-horiz-center\"><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">Advertisement<\/span>  <\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-article-2\" class=\"lazy-ad\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>Last One Laughing\u00a0<\/em>is produced by\u00a0Banijay UK labels Zeppotron and Initial.
