Who's in series 3 of David Mitchell's Outsiders?

Comedians for next season revealed

The comedians taking part in the next series of David Mitchell's Outsiders have been revealed.

Alan Davies, Roisin Conaty, Guz Khan, Judi Love, Chris McCausland and Laura Smyth will be taking part in the outdoor survival challenge series when it returns to Dave later this year.

Teaming up in pairs, they will face challenges set by the host to see if they can fend for themselves in the wild for a week.

It will be the third series of the show, which has previously featured the likes of Ed Gamble, Kerry Godliman, Lou Sanders, Phil Wang and Joe Wilkinson.

When series 3 was announced last month, Mitchell said: ‘How brilliant that David Mitchell's Outsiders is coming back for a third series and that I get the chance to put more comedians through their survival paces. 

‘I can't wait to see them flail around in the outdoors in a way that is both hilarious to watch and carries within it the darker truth that, should society collapse, most of us are in for long, agonising deaths. Plus, there'll be lovely cut-away shots of wildlife which you don't get in any other panel show.’

The first two series on Dave and UKTV Play have been seen by more than 4.2million viewers, the company says.
