Russell Howard's new six-part series, Russell Howard & Mum USA Road Trip, will premiere on Comedy Central UK on Wednesday 19th October at 10pm.

In the series we finally get to meet Russell's mum Ninette after hearing so much about her in her son's stand-up routines. During their trip they find themselves in ridiculous situations, including trying to break from an escape vehicle’s trunk, battling through a house of the walking dead and getting pressured into getting tattoos, proving to be an unlikely but hilarious comic duo throughout.

By coincidence Romesh Ranganathan's second series of Asian Provocateur for BBC3 finds the Crawley stand-up hitting the American highway with his mother too. Ranganathan's series is also due to be available in October.

Watch the trailer below.
