Comedy Central UK has launched Achievement Unlocked, a new short-form, comedy-challenge series inspired by the world of simulator gaming.

Achievement Unlocked features some of the UK’s most exciting, up-and-coming comedians attempting to conquer real-world professions by mastering the simulator game version first. The comedians experience anything from a day in the life of a farmer to feeling the heat as a firefighter, before soon realising that the simulator game isn’t quite as realistic as the profession itself! 

The six 5-minute episodes star Thomas James Gray (The Ladventures of Thomas Gray), Jake Lambert (Writer for 8 Out Of 10 Cats, and Mock The Week), Harriet Kemsley (Bobby & Harriet Get Married), Ben Pope (former President of Cambridge Footlights), Kelly Convey (First Dates), and Darren Harriott (Russell Howard’s Stand Up Central).    

Achievement Unlocked is available to watch now on Comedy Central UK’s website and YouTube and will be released daily on Snapchat discover. The series follows a raft of successful short-form series including Tom Rosenthal’s Absolutely Fine, Josh Pieter’s Josh Investigates and Bad Snappers.

The short-form series was created and produced by Josh Pappenheim and executive produced by Cat Collins and Joanna Wells for Comedy Central UK. The series was made in collaboration with Eve’ll Industries.
