Last One Laughing teases brand new rule for Halloween special - as first look trailer is released

Last One Laughing UK is coming back later this month with a Halloween special season, and Prime Video has released a new trailer with Jimmy Carr and Roisin Conaty revealing a brand new rule.

As always, a group of comedians are thrown into a house and told not to laugh, while simultaneously being tasked with making each other laugh.

But, this time, they're also not allowed to scream either. And it looks like the producers will be throwing all sorts at the comics to try and get them to shriek.

The line-up for the Halloween special sees Lou Sanders and Daisy May Cooper returning for a second go, while Phil Wang, Jack Dee, Reece Shearsmith, Tom Allen and Harriet Dyer play the game for the first time.

Thankfully, we won't have to wait until actual Halloween to see the fan-favourite show return.

The first three episodes will premiere on Friday 23 October, while the fourth and final episode will be available a week later on Friday 30 October.

If that's not enough laughter, a third season hasn't only been confirmed, but we also know the line-up for it!

Lee Mack, Katherine Ryan, Harry Hill, Katherine Parkinson, Michelle de Swarte, Jon Richardson, Morgana Robinson and Josh Jones will all be entering the Last One Laughing house — and they won't be alone.

Season 1 runner-up Richard Ayoade will have another go at claiming the crown, while Roisin Conaty will go from being Jimmy's right-hand assistant to a contestant. Season 2's Mel Giedroyc will be sitting in the control room with Jimmy instead.

We're promised "comedy cameos, format twists and surprises", although, with the season not set to air until 2027, we probably get anything more specific for a while.

Last One Laughing Halloween premieres on 23 October with its first three episodes on Prime Video, with the fourth episode being released on 30 October. The third season will air in 2027.
