There's a new comedy coming to London's West End, and it has a seriously killer cast full of TV favourites.

Dead Funny will star Humans duo Katherine Parkinson and Emily Berrington, alongside The League of Gentlemen's Steve Pemberton, future Doctor Who star Ralf Little and The Casual Vacancy's Rufus Jones.

And it seems the cast are getting up to no good backstage, judging from our exclusive little clip:

Written by Terry Johnson, Dead Funny centres on Eleanor (Parkinson), who is desperate to have a baby with Richard (Jones), but he's always too busy running his Dead Funny Society.

The group reconvene in the week where comedy legends Frankie Howerd and Benny Hill leave the world a less funnier place, but Eleanor understandably doesn't have time to wait around.

The play will open at the Vaudeville Theatre from October 27 for a limited season. Tickets can be found right here.

Channel 4

Humans is coming back to Channel 4 later this month with a primetime premiere on Sunday, October 30 at 9pm.

Both Katherine and Emily are among the returning cast members, along with Gemma Chan, Tom Goodman-Hill and Colin Morgan.

New cast members include Carrie-Anne Moss – of Jessica Jones and The Matrix fame – as AI expert Dr Athena Morrow, and Prison Break's Marshall Allman as Silicon Valley billionaire Milo Khoury.

Nashville's Sam Palladio is also on board as café owner Ed – and they'll all be joined by The Paradise's Sonya Cassidy, Cucumber actress Letitia Wright and Bella Dayne from Plebs.
