The contestants will have to come up with surreal on the spot gags and live performances, and will be judged by a panel of dead comedians through the new ‘8G Mobile Séance’ phone, amongst the panellists will be comedian Kenneth Everett, Eric Idol (the only still living panellist), Benny Hill and of course the brains behind the whole thing the dead parrot from Monty python.
The contestants will also have to write a winning comedy script for a proposed new Monty python movie, “And now for something completely commercial”; the contestants will be judged on a series of nail biting tests, from dressing up as woman and talking in squeaky voices! And also doing a version of the very dead, dead parrot sketch! Amongst other things.
Michael palin, Sheffield born ex-python said “it’s terrible what folk will do to get ratings these days” None of original cast, except the dead parrot! Have backed the idea!
