BBC Radio 2 - Radio 2's Comedy Showcase, 2018, Josh Widdicombe Will Make Your Life Better

Britain's best comedians and celebrities examine the best life hacks.

... Life Better. The new comedy show where Britain's best comedians and celebrities examine frustrations with their own inadequate lives to come up with life hacks.

Harry Hill, Fay Ripley and Evelyn Mok pitch inventions and ideas that they believe will make all our lives better. Josh will pick his favourite innovation from our guests offerings with the help of his experts: 19-year-old self-made millionaire Akshay Ruparelia and Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and problem solver Dr Lucy Rogers. Between Josh, his guests, his experts and his dedicated focus group - also known as the studio audience -  he will troubleshoot, critique and analyse each idea potentially turning an awful invention into a great one. This is the show that believes there is no such thing as a bad idea. Will our celebrity guests disprove that notion or will they become Britain's answer to Elon Musk?


Josh says "I am absolutely delighted the BBC has given me the chance change the world. Or, more accurately, ask three of my favourite people to come up with some insane ideas. It is a show we are hugely proud of and I can't wait for people to hear it".

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
