Leading comedians from the UK share their most cherished historical tales while indulging in a variety of alcoholic beverages. Their inebriated recountings are then faithfully performed, verbatim, by a cast of famous actors, celebrities, and comedians such as Johnny Vegas, Russell Kane, Joe Lycett, Rob Beckett, Alex Horne, and James Acaster. Fortunately, Jimmy Carr provides the voice-over to maintain some semblance of order if the drinking spirals out of control.
