The first episode looks back on Little Britain, Lily Savage, and an infamous Christmas episode of Men Behaving Badly, as well as stand-up performances by Sarah Millican and Steve Coogan. Featuring contributions from comedian Katy Brand, columnist Grace Dent, and Rev Richard Coles.

This episode remembers the time Jeffrey Archer appeared as a guest on Dame Edna's show, while columnist Grace Dent recalls Shooting Stars, and Dom Joly discusses the late Caroline Aherne's popular Mrs Merton. There are also more hilarious clips from Ricky Gervais's sitcom Extras, Leigh Francis vehicle Bo' Selecta!, and stand-up groundbreaker Joan Rivers, plus contributions from UK comedians Gina Yashere, Stephen Bailey and Kerry Godliman. Then there's politics, with Hal Cruttenden remembering The New Statesman, Jeffrey Archer recalling Spitting Image, and Julia Hartley-Brewer offering her blue-tinged thoughts on The Thick Of It. This episode also includes clips from Harry Enfield, Ali G, Pub Landlord Al Murray and The Day Today, with additional contributions from Katy Brand, Dom Joly, Steve Furst and the Rev Richard Coles.

On the theme of religion there are clips from Spitting Image and Outnumbered, plus Frankie Boyle on the Pope; whilst death is covered by a Monty Python sketch which was nearly banned, Billy Connolly on medical examinations and Joan Rivers on old people.

This episode focuses on the role of women in outrageous comedy, as we hear from Kerry Godliman on The Royle Family, Katy Brand on Victoria Wood, Stephen Bailey on Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps, and Grace Dent on Mrs Doyle. Meanwhile there are clips from Miranda, Joan Rivers and Smack The Pony, with contributions from commentators David Quantick, Zoe Lyons and Robin Ince.
