After weeks of anticipation, the winner of Last One Laughing season 2 has finally been revealed, delighting fans of the uproarious Prime Video series. The hilarious competition, which challenges comedians to avoid laughing, returned for its second outing last month, featuring ten comedians battling to keep straight faces.
Intense Final Episode Narrows Down the Field
The final episode of Last One Laughing season 2 saw the competition whittled down to just four remaining comics: Mel Giedroyc, Sam Campbell, David Mitchell, and the reigning champion Bob Mortimer. The tension mounted as each comedian employed their best tactics to stifle laughter.
How the Final Unfolded
Mel Giedroyc was the first to fall in the final round, securing fourth place after she couldn't contain her laughter during a head-to-head with Bob Mortimer, who performed an impersonation of a randy dolphin. Mortimer, the inaugural Last One Laughing champion, was then eliminated when he giggled at David Mitchell exclaiming, "I was just chadwicking!"
This left David Mitchell and Sam Campbell as the last two contestants standing. With just one minute remaining and neither comedian cracking a smile, host Jimmy Carr declared a tiebreaker. Carr announced that the player who had made the most people laugh throughout the competition would be named the season two winner.
David Mitchell Emerges Victorious
In a thrilling conclusion, David Mitchell was crowned the winner of Last One Laughing season 2. The Peep Show legend expressed his delight after the win, stating, "That was quite insane because I think we disappeared into a place where there was no laughter. I have to say, for all the bleakness at the end, I am delighted to win and I think that shows a want of character in me, but I was very pleased."
The final moments saw Mitchell and Campbell engage in a screaming match, but it was Mitchell's overall performance that secured him the title.
Future of Last One Laughing
Prime Video has exciting plans for the future of Last One Laughing. The streaming service has announced that a Halloween special will premiere for the first time, expected to drop sometime in October. Additionally, a third season of the comedy competition is scheduled for release in 2027.
Returning Hosts and New Challenges
Jimmy Carr will return to host both the Halloween special and season three, with Roisin Conaty acting as his deputy. They will challenge a new line-up of comedians to maintain their composure in the face of hilarious antics.
Last One Laughing continues to be a hit for Prime Video, offering viewers a unique blend of comedy and competition. All episodes are available to stream on the platform.
