Now, after 4 years of procrastination, the time has finally come to bring all 5 comedians together in one room, sit them on stools, watch their filmed attempts back and decide once and for all, who was smart, cunning and disturbed enough to win the crown and earn themselves the luxurious prize of a Sainsbury’s Meal Deal!
