Anna & Katy is a brilliantly silly new comedy from acclaimed double act Anna Crilly and Katy Wix. It’s a character-driven sketch show that mixes the pair's unique comedy creations with celebrity cameos and daft TV pastiches. Anna & Katy also features some of the most exciting up and coming talents on the sketch comedy circuit.
In this episode, we’ll get to see the duo host exciting new cookery programme ‘Rice Britannia’ which pays homage to Britain’s great love affair with rice. A spin-off of the hugely successful Great British Bake Off, Rice Britannia sees contestant’s battling it out over a 10 week period to win the opportunity to cook rice on top of the Great Wall of China.
Other parodies include; daytime show 'Congratulation', where people write in to be congratulated for completing life's minor tasks such as signing up for internet banking, ‘World’s Worst Words’ which pokes fun at those typical end of the year review programmes and the z-list celebs who feature on them, and we meet ‘The Apprentice’ style like employees of car wash company ‘Ignition’ who are desperate to try and win the company some business
The programme also introduces us to ‘Kuntworts’ a German game show equivalent of Countdown which features a special guest appearance from stand-up comic Lee Mack as he takes on the role of co-host.
