Legendary UK comedian Bill Bailey is coming to New Zealand to host a new comedy show on TVNZ.
Patriot Brains will pit Australian and Kiwi comedians against each other in a battle of the wits.
"I am very much looking forward to hosting Patriot Brains, and a chance to referee a spirited international debate between two rival countries, which could end up as a right old ding-dong," Bailey said in a statement today.
"A ding-dong I hope to be thought-provoking, informative and hilarious."
The competitive comedians will be quizzed to find out who knows their country the best, battling across a "multitude of disciplines", TVNZ says.
Bailey will also be in the country touring with his own comedy show, En Route to Normal.
Patriot Brains will air on TVNZ 2 after Easter, made with the support of NZ On Air.
