Rob & Romesh Vs…

Wed, 9pm, Sky Max & Sky Showcase

We’ve seen them do drag, take to the West End stage, play tennis with Sir Andy Murray and train with the England men’s football team ahead of the 2022 World Cup.

Now, comedians Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett are again plunging head first into the unknown by taking on K-pop, Crufts and classical music for a fifth series of their have-a-go show Rob & Romesh Vs…

The first challenge sees the duo attempt to become magicians, and they head to Las Vegas to learn the tricks of the trade from world-famous double act Penn & Teller before joining them for a special encore performance at their residency show.
