Rising stand-up star Kyrah Gray is set to front a new dating show entitled Gagging For It, in which she helps people find love by being funny.

Gray recently won Best Debut Show award for her Work in Progress hour at the Leicester Comedy Festival.

Each episode follows a different set of potential soulmates trying to find a love match with a sensational single who finds a sense of humour to be the most attractive quality in a partner. It’s as much about falling in laugh as it is about falling in love.

The aspiring lovesick jokers have to flex their comedy muscles over a series of challenges designed to showcase their comedy chops. The competing singles will need to bring their comedic A-game to keep the picker laughing and stay in the running for a date.

At the end of each round, Kyrah is on hand to help the picker decide who stands the chance of a date, and who they want to eliminate.

Gagging for It will launch on Sky TV’s YouTube channel on Tuesday 20th May.
