Streaming giant Amazon have announced that they are bringing back BBC panel show Mock the Week. The show ran for 21 series between 2005-2022 and was hosted by comedian Dara Ó Briain.
It has now been confirmed that Amazon Freevee will be giving the series a new lease of life as it airs in the US next year. The reboot will be produced by the Daily Show's Trevor Noah with input from Mock the Week's creator, Dan Patterson.
In its original form, the half-hour panel programme featured two teams of comedians taking satirical swipes at current news, pop culture, and world events through a combination of stand-up comedy and improvised games. Are you excited to see Mock the Week return? Let us know in the comments.
