British British Comedy Comedy Comedy Central

A UK version of the TV format in which inebriated comedians attempt to recount events from history. Top UK stand-ups relate their favourite historical stories while getting absolutely bladdered on a mixture of beers, wines and spirits. Their slurred versions of history are then acted out, word for word, by a host of well-known actors, celebrities and comedians. Luckily, Jimmy Carr is on voice-over duties to restore some order if the drinking sessions get out of hand.
