Pappy’s Flatshare Slamdown Christmas Special

Add to your event list

Your favourite podcast Pappy’s Flatshare Slamdown is recording its Christmas special, featuring special guests Nish Kumar and Amy Annette.

Pappy’s Flatshare Slamdown is the hilarious and anarchic panel game hosted by Pappy’s and featuring great guests from the world of comedy.

Set in Pappy’s flat – with landlord Matthew in charge – each show sees unruly tenants Ben and Tom battle to avoid doing an annoying household chore. To help them in this exciting high-stakes contest they force their houseguests to take sides and help them fight it out over a number of stupid games.

Please note that the artists appearing may be subject to change.
