Key details
Fat Pipes is a live, one hour, interactive, online comedy pilot, being developed by BBC Comedy for BBC Three and iPlayer on 25 March 2013.
Fat Pipes will be hosted by rising stand-up star Iain Stirling (Russell Howard's Good News, BBC Three's Comedy At The Fringe) and will feature a cast of some of Britain's best and brightest young comedy talent. The pilot episode will be streamed direct from The Hospital Club Studios in Central London and will be a raucous, anarchic hour of live, interactive comedy, with set piece contributions, special guests, stunts, music and games that the audience - both in the studio and at home - can join in with online in real time via Facebook, Twitter and the wider internet.
Using social media, we'll get to know our audience ahead of the show and create an online comedy event that viewers can join in with, sending in jokes and suggestions and playing along with photo challenges and live online comedy 'games'. You might even be invited to join us live in the studio via your webcam...
Talent involved includes Chris Kendall, Jessie Cave, Sanderson Jones and Mawaan Rizwan.
