Old school stand-ups are to compete against contemporary comics in a Big Brother-style reality TV programme called Kings of Comedy.
The show, which will air on Channel 4 and E4, features four comedians of each generation sharing a house. The eventual winner will be offered a broadcast deal.
Contestants have not yet been announced but among comedians rumoured to be in the frame are Bullseye’s Jim Bowen, Bernard Manning and Mike Reid.
Kings of Comedy is made by Endemol and will be transmitted on weeknights for a month on E4, starting in October with a live eviction each Saturday.
