Forget Foreman vs Ali and Holyfield vs Tyson. Get ready for the greatest heavyweight contest of all-time: Britain vs The Rest of the World.
In the Blue Corner, representing Great Britain, is the undefeated Hal Cruttenden and his special comedian guest.
In the Red Corner, representing The Rest of the World, is their captain Henning Wehn with his fellow tag partner.
This international comedy contest is refereed by the (possibly) impartial Irishman Ed Byrne.
The rounds encompass everything from popular culture, languages and history to sports, customs and food, all focused on finding out which side is superior.
