Jo Brand's Great Wall Of Comedy will see award-winning host Jo Brand joined by comedy genius Barry Cryer (The Morecambe And Wise Show) and BAFTA Award-winning actress Rebecca Front (The Thick Of It) as they uncover the stories and secrets behind the nation's greatest comedy treasures.

Each week the trio will be joined by a host of star guests from the world of sitcom as they delve into the archives to reveal little known facts about our favourite comedy icons and shows.

Originally piloted as a panel show quizzing teams on their knowledge of British comedy, the series is now pitched more as a chat vehicle, packed with juicy trivia and stories.

Guests will include Tony Robinson (Blackadder), Vicki Michelle ('Allo 'Allo!), Dave Spikey (Phoenix Nights) and Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), and there'll be VT appearances from Lesley Joseph (Bird of a Feather), June Whitfield (Absolutely Fabulous) and Andrew Sachs (Fawlty Towers).
