The way Miles says (from ~ 9:24) "what a funny country.." just totally cracks me up, and I'm Irish. 🤣 I love Miles, he's ingeniously funny, if that makes sense.
Bwahaha @3:17, that swimming joke holy ooof that’s dark but facts. For any who didn’t get it, it was a reference to Brock Turner, a collegiate swimmer who brutally raped a girl behind a dumpster at Standford and received a 6 month sentence (plus three years probation and lifetime sex offender registration) for his crime. He was given leniency due to his “promising swimming career” as Santa Clara County Judge Aaron Persky said a longer sentence “would have a severe impact on him.” This sentencing became a fairly major part of the “Me too” movement as many believe his sentence was an unjust and representative of the greater problem that “Me too” was seeking to bring light to
Ed was a savage for that joke, man. Also had the "hello there, shot any innocent Brazilians today??" joke on SWLTS after the murder of that Brazilian dude in 2005.
The way everyone reacted when Ed made the Brock Turner joke (3:17)... Sometimes the best jokes are the ones that make you uncomfortably shiver in their honesty.
Me too, Here's an If this is the answer, style joke you might like (even though it's no longer relevant). donald trump, vladimir putin and kim jong un. What is the question? Who Are The New Axis Of Evil.
4:16 The nerd in me thought of a bad one for this: A math textbook asks, "If a woman can make a baby in 40 weeks, how quickly can a 1.5 women make a baby?"
The repetition was why Andy left Frankie left as his material never made it on the show despite him being the biggest draw then after that they were pressured to be more female friendly as female comedians all complained the never got material shown (they weren’t funny but no one had the balls to say it) and Russel Howard aka The little boy with badly fitting tee shirts got his own bbc 3 show. It limped on for a few years but was never the same
I remember the first time I noticed a repeated joke. High Dennis said something that sounded like it was completely off the cuff and improvised, except I'd heard him say the exact same thing three days earlier on the Now Show on Radio 4 And like… I've got no reason to complain about that. Of course they're going to reuse a joke if it'll get a laugh. Getting a laugh is their job But it broke the illusion. I couldn't pretend it was all improvised in real time anymore. Made me think about how much effort comedy is, and how much work goes into making it look effortless
The joke that Stephen K Amos (hope I'm spelling that right) made about playing the race card is a very popular thing these days... Except these days they aren't joking 😂
You poor thing. The world used to be full of fun and excitement. Comedy was funny, food tasted good. Ideas were all new and exciting, or they were familiar and comforting. You still had all your hair… It's called getting older. The world _always_ feels like it's getting worse as you age. But it's not the world. It's just your experience of it. The TV you watched when you were younger seemed good at the time because you were still learning what good comedy looked like, and you learned to like this stuff. It still seems good now because it's familiar and nostalgic Plus it doesn't hurt that this video is twenty minutes of the very best jokes, cherry-picked from years of the show. Nostalgia is always like that. Twenty years later you can only remember the best bits, the iconic bits. So it feels like the past was __all__ iconic But no, it can't be any of that. It must be the trans people. I'm sure it's their fault that life doesn't seem as much fun now as it did when you were 17. Somehow
Incidentally, mummy is a lot happier now that she's transitioned, and she's a lot more fun to be around. She was never daddy, but she had to spend decades pretending to be, and that was no fun. She's a lot more relaxed now that she can finally be herself So maybe don't worry about it? Because it has absolutely no effect on your life, and it's just a stranger doing something that makes her life better. Good for her Or hell, maybe you should get to know her? She's pretty cool. She likes old comedy shows too. You two might get on
@@douglaswolfen7820 I do see your point. In real life I don’t come across angry people insisting that I acknowledge their opinions about what gender they are. I remember when I was a kid in a little village in England and there was a local man who was a builder. He liked to wear women’s clothes. He didn’t look the least bit feminine and was obviously a man dressed in women’s clothing from head to toe. He still didn’t look anything like a woman. He stood at the bar with mostly other men, drinking beer and chatting normally. I asked my older brother why he dressed like that and he told me that apparently he dressed in women’s clothing most weekends. No one seemed to care and life carried on as usual. This was the early 70’s in a little Devonshire village. What impressed me most was how he was accepted. So that’s my real feelings on the matter of gender/sex. Tolerance and acceptance, not forcing people by law to accept the untrue. My joke on this website was only meant as a joke about Tv being better. Some of it was , but things have improved a lot. Although to be honest, I stopped watching TV at home about 20 years ago because I didn’t feel it was worthwhile. I didn’t renew my license. Now I use the internet exclusively. Anyway, I hope my explanation has lessened your outrage at my apparent intolerance.
The BBC, where every executive is a Tory stooge. The BBC, which cancels shows when they speak truth to power. The BBC, which allows neo-Nazis to spew their disinformation all over the place. That BBC has gone woke? How moronic is the echo chamber you live in? MTW got worse because they had to tap-dance around the issues because they couldn't afford to offend the whiny crybaby Tories and their lickspittle cult members.
The Edward Snowden joke at the end about having a 9% chance of living to 40 tripped something in my brain so i looked it up and he turned 40 within the last 3 months 👀
"There is more to me than that!"
"Is there?"
"No."

I’m also Irish, sláinte 🥂
@@alanmurray5963I'm English. I would have gone with Cuntree
Lmao i was just about to comment how that creased me, Miles is good craic alright, shame they didnt have him on but for a few times.
9:20 the way Miles Says "what a funny country" is top 3 jokes from the show
"Pingu's rider" is gold.

You mean convicted rapist Brock Turner?
"I know they raped someone but come on have you seen how good they are at swimming?"

“How much has the average house price gown down by”
A quote I pray to hear very soon
*1 YEAR*
Is it: "How long will it take me to realise that Ed Gamble and Rhys James are _not_ related despite their brother-like appearances?"
Sibling-like. Rhys is the ghost of a little girl.
Is it how long it took me to realize Ed Gamble and Rhys James aren’t, in fact, the same person at different points in time?
Is it how long it takes to earn a weekly wage under Rishi Sunak?
@@tahrey I'll definitely pay that.
*£100 a day*
How much does Adobe want people to pay for their subscription-based software?
More of these please, there is l9ads of scenes we'd like to see videos on here and not enough of these. Keep them coming.
If This Is The Answer, What Is The Question? has always been (For me certainly.) the funniest section of Mock The Week.
Scenes we'd like to see is a VERY close second
1. Scenes we'd like to see
2. Headliners
3. If this is the answer what is the question
But all are amazing
How the F was MTW cancelled yet Mrs Brown's Boys gets recommissioned??
Mrs brown is a general comedy sitcoms not a political satire panel show that’s getting old.
In MTW they keep recycling ideas (as you see here) also Mrs Brown obviously made more money for the BBC than MTW ever did
@@CricketEngland MBB isn't even funny. It never has been.
MTW became a bit lefty that's why😂
Because all the jokes get redone eventually
“I’ve not had a bath for days on end. And that’s because Rob Beckett’s dad is in there.”
I still think that someone should have given the right answer the first time, if only to throw Dara off his game! LOL.
But then we'd miss out on all the jokes
I miss this show 😢
Me too,
Here's an If this is the answer, style joke you might like (even though it's no longer relevant). donald trump, vladimir putin and kim jong un. What is the question?
Who Are The New Axis Of Evil.
We need this back
No Monsoon Poultry Hospital?
How is it that the real answer to Yoga, Sushi, and Ice is somehow far weirder than any of the jokes
4:50 yes josh, sling that truth
15:29, turned 40 this June
8:53 Well can you West?
Why was this show cancelled BBC2? Possibly one of the most brilliant comedy shows on television…
Probably wasn’t getting watched by enough people
As Rhys James pointed out in the last ever episode, 'BBC execs always lose interest once something turns 17' 🤣
the Michelle Obama and Paris Hilton jokes were the best
The good old days.
What year was Yoga, Sushi and Ice from, again?
4:16 The nerd in me thought of a bad one for this:
A math textbook asks, "If a woman can make a baby in 40 weeks, how quickly can a 1.5 women make a baby?"
Maths
20
7 months: how long does it take for Gaza to get a single glass of water?
How long does it take Trump to learn how to spell his name?
19 mins 20 seconds actually
19min 19 secs to be specific
When I saw this comment I was at the 32 days answer
Mr Starmer, bring back this show by ordering BBC to do it...
But the BBC couldn’t possibly give in to government pressure.
Bring back MTW
Watching these all together you see how the same joke ideas keep getting recycled.
Arguably, because the same s*it keeps happening

This must be from the time that TV was funny. Long, long ago children …. before Daddy became Mummy.

The old MTW episodes were the best. When the BBC got “woke” the humour disappeared from the show
Look everyone, a massive bellend.
The BBC, where every executive is a Tory stooge.
The BBC, which cancels shows when they speak truth to power.
The BBC, which allows neo-Nazis to spew their disinformation all over the place.
That BBC has gone woke? How moronic is the echo chamber you live in?
