Funny Bone: the brand new comedy dating show where four hopefuls battle through four consecutive sillier and sillier rounds — each armed with their very own comedian wing person to woo our chosen chooser. Together they’ll pitch, flirt, improvise and desperately try to look dateable as each round one dynamic duo gets eliminated. Two pairs will make it to the final showdown… and from there, anything could happen. If you joined us for the pilot in February then you’ll know anything goes at Funny Bone and your guess is as good as ours when trying to predict who might find love here! Join us for the 2nd instalment of Funny Bone on Tuesday 28th April.
But who will be looking for love this time? With a whole new line up of fantastic comedian wing people, finding love has never been so easy and yet so hard and chaotic at the same time. Could it be you? Funny Bone: Comedy Dating Show Contestant Application
Hosted by Anja Atkinson ("deliciously devilish" – Narc Magazine)
Anja Atkinson, a stand up from Sunderland, with a filthy little glint in her eye (there’s barely any eye for all the filth) and a knack for turning everyday chaos into something truly daft. Crowned as “deliciously devilish” (NARC) and becoming known for her “brutal honesty and strong punchlines”, whilst “swerving between the everyday and the absurd” (One4Review).
Expect a hot mess with idiot features and you won’t be disappointed.
