  • Amy Gledhill, a contestant on Last One Laughing UK, revealed that a “filthy” improvised scene she performed with Sam Campbell was cut from the show.
  • Gledhill explained on Alan Carr’s Life’s A Beach podcast that the moment, which she considered one of her funniest, was deemed too 'mucky' for television.
  • The scene escalated to a point where Gledhill contemplated spitting into Campbell's mouth before host Jimmy Carr intervened, calling “cut”.
  • Both Gledhill and Carr admitted they initially feared the second series of the show would be a “turkey” due to the difficulty of not laughing.
  • Despite initial concerns, the series was a critical success, though contestant Mel Giedroyc sustained a jaw injury from her efforts to suppress laughter.
