I don't know how many people know this, so I'll say it anyway: This was entirely fabricated by students who couldn't be bothered to wait and just wanted to get out of lessons. Edit: OK so it seems that I am either gravely mistaken, or specifically people who did have this as a rule replied, while others haven't bothered. Just check yourself, that's the only real solution here.
@Gonçalo Ferreira did you ask the teachers? Or did you just take your classmates' word for it? Maybe it is true for some schools, but in general, it is not.
Well that's quite a nice rule. Here in Germany we had to go to the vice principal's office after 10 minutes and let him decide if he had to wait longer, would get a substitute or could actually leave
@@spookyy.k "it avoids the students sitting and doing nothing or standing in a line for hours" What? By making them sit or stand doing nothing elsewhere? That doesn't seem useful. Though it may work to introduce it as a rule, so that the students leave and get spotted by someone who can then, after realising they should be in a lesson, get a cover for them. Trick the students into thinking they'll get time off in order to ensure they have less.
@@alansmithee419 we had the same rule, I guess it helps other classes if there's not an entire loud class talking right outside their classrooms We were even allowed to leave the school grounds to go to a supermarket that was a couple dozen feet away (if we were back in time for our next class) but school kids suck, so we were quickly no longer allowed to go there.. especially when someone got in a fistfight with the manager. It sounds ridiculous reading it back, but it's all 100% true
Well he has to laugh at them, because nobody else does! Just calling yourself 'Comedian', doesn't make you funny, but sadly, too many young people think that's all it takes.
I am actually a foreigner... I am from a country that is 8000 miles away, and I even live there. UK is a toxic environment for brown people. Only sadists go there. It's too cold, the food is horrible, you have to do your own work, and the garbage collection policies are a joke, to name a few things.
That_One_Nerd_Guy "absolutely hate first world countries. You have to work and they don't pay you to do anything. So boring. They also gave women rights. Like what?" 😂😂😂
Nirmal Kirtisinghe you know if I called India any one of those things I'd be called a racist. But because you said that about the UK and you're brown, it's somehow not racist
Not surprising really, both programmes have the same creators and producers. Not sure if they were also involved in the American version too, or if they just licensed the format to Yankovision.

Ok class, scalpels down! I hope you all managed to locate and remove your own appendix. It's 60% of your grade! Medical exam... get it? Please? Anyone?
What they mean is that there is a smudge on the letter N on the screen behind them in the word "Wouldn't". Which is fairly large and annoying to look at.
02:15 He's trying to pull off one of those meta Milton Jones recycled old jokes. "Doctor, I think I'm a pair of curtains." "Pull yourself together." Proof that Milton Jones is funnier than you think.
That's definitely true, and I'm sure you hold a different opinion to me, which is fine. I'm happy for you that you can enjoy these episodes, but I'm afraid they're just not for me. Don't worry, I'm not one of those "when Frankie Boyle left, MTW went to shit"-people, but I've just noticed that something in the quality of the show (maybe the fact that there is only one regular panelist) has changed over the past couple of years.
Rees-Mogg is a particularly prickish British Politician with an intolerable upperclass affectation. He is notable for opinions that offend ordinary people.
“Doctor, Doctor! I feel like a pair of curtains!” “Well, pull yourself together!” “Doctor, I’ve got a genuine mental disorder, that’s so inconsiderate!” “Well, a classic’s a classic!” Something along those lines.
Each person gets a certain amount of time to complete their joke, the buzzer tells them to get of the performance area so someone else can say something
ITS SO WEIRD SEEING JAMES IN SOMETHING THAT ISNT A BUTTON UP SHIRT
Destroyed Energy I knew there was something off about him!
"doctor! Doctor! Ive got 59 seconds to live! "
"hang on a minute"
baddmanaz 😂😂
Wow 😂
"If the doctor doesn't turn up in fifteen minutes, you're legally allowed to leave"

Doctor:what’s your star sign?
Patient: cancer
Doctor: *what a coincidence *
You have crabs!
*The plot twist*
HAHAHAH 🤣🤣🤣
Ed Gamble and James Acaster are the funniest duo of this generation. The way James laughs at his own jokes is so endearing.
Well he has to laugh at them, because nobody else does!
Just calling yourself 'Comedian', doesn't make you funny, but sadly, too many young people think that's all it takes.
David Edwards Did we watch the same video?? All of Acaster’s jokes have the other comedians cracking up constantly
John Slade Acaster isn’t funny
@@davidedwards3361 wow, it's almost as if comedy is entirely subjective
Acaster is so charmingly weird.
Yet weirdly charming =P
We all aspire to be
And unfunny.
@@gosegose5183 sod off imperialist bell snog
Bruh
''Don't worry everything you've just told me is private and confidential. Shit my elbow was leaning on the intercom''
I can’t tell you how happy i am James Acaster exists
Same here!! He is such a blessing!
One word: Legend!
I can't see the funny in him y'know.
JXMES VGHN he’s really not at all that funny
I only found his last one funny.
James is quality
Stop being a generic hugh lover. He ran out of good material years ago and now disguises it with obvious punchlines and a smug grin
HUgh was pretty weak in this one but still has got it
A classics a classic!
Thanks!
Neax 44 James made a childish butt joke and a shit ‘doctor. Doctor’ joke. He’s just slapstick if you find him funny idk what to say about you
James Acaster
Ready to eat apricots
Guavaberry Gua Gua we will fight them on the peaches
Guavaberry Gua Gua he knows what he’s too good for
Maybe I’m not as dried apricots as I thought I was
But definitely not cabbages
James Acaster is genuinely a gift
Manav Sharma I genuinely, really don’t find him funny. Hugh is the funniest of the lot by far!
Andrew O' Sullivan each to their own I guess
The "A Trophy" gag was unexpected - at least from anyone besides Milton, anyway.
So ash, when you said you had to 'catch them all' we thought you implied the pokemon
AScleMR fancy seeing you here
Plot twist: that's who he caught them from.
Ouch 😭
That actually was a good joke from acaster about the curtains
Poor Hugh. Looking more and more dead inside every time someone else steps up to the mic.
Hmmm really? I didn't see it.
''So if you like to just lay on the bed for me whilst i turn off the lights and put some romantic music on''
Lol! 😂
"More worrying than that is the aggressive ferret..." 😂🤣😂🤣
" *pulls out a huge weapon* No I wasn't joking when I said I'm gonna Bazooka that Verruca..!"
I think my favorite part of these videos is the awkward dance they do when more than one person is ready to go
That's not just these videos though. That's every improv video.
James Acaster and Ed Gamble are gold
i love your comment,profile picture and name
hello so do I.
everything about you’re profile is perfect 😂
''Does this count as a second opinion if i ask you again?''
James is so strange, I love it 😂
My entry: "Oh, no, that's totally normal. It's your face you should be embarrassed about."
Hello, this is the incontinence hotline, can you hold please?
patient: whats the news doctor?
doctor: well have u heard of cancer:
patient: yes
doctor: good can u explain it to me
I am amazed that I actually found this funny
That's a David dobrick vine
The waiting list joke is funny because it's true...
Nirmal Kirtisinghe I knew a Foreigner would reply
I am actually a foreigner... I am from a country that is 8000 miles away, and I even live there. UK is a toxic environment for brown people. Only sadists go there.

Nirmal Kirtisinghe You have to do your own work.
Yeah no shit.

"I am a doctor yes, but not a medical one... I'm a time lord."
My entry:
"Oh, yes I have your heart in my hands but from what I've heard, you weren't using it anyway."
“If you feel a slight pain, don’t worry. I forgot to inject you with anaesthetic.”
James acaster is always ridiculous and I love it! XD
The guests on the show now may as well be the new regulars, the red haired girl is always on it, as is Ed
Angela Barnes - she’s cute!
1:42 Preach this guy.
This had me in stitches
"you know, I used to think that the Hippocratic Oath was a hip-hop band."
Acaster is just miles above the rest here, such legendary humour
kavcrob he’s really not at all funny
Really enjoyed this one. Lots of silly lols
James is so good
''I don't you how you can class me as a heavy drinker. Yes i know i drink 6-8 pints a day but that's water''
Michael Langley LoL
''Yes this used to be Dr Shipman's room''
I'm from America and this reminds me so much of Whose Line is it Anyway?

i tried watching a whole episode and failed. Easily the best section of the show
'So if you would just like to remove your clothes and then I'll be out of here in ten minutes and won't bother you again'
Doctor: and when were you born?
Patient: July 16.
Doctor: oh! A cancer. How coincidental! You've got crabs...
... And cancer.
That constipation joke
''We've had the results back and your condition is herreditary. I really think you should have a word with your brother uhh i mean your dad''
I went to the doctor the other day. He told me to name a star sign. I said Capricorn. He said no you got cancer
You must be in for your bellendoscopy, brilliant 😂
Care to explain?
So you touch your head, hand, and foot and they all hurt. I believe you’ve broken your finger.
New mock the Week
Awesome
My entry:
You are just supposed to have one of those right?
1:35
Not even a joke😂
“Medical school is expensive or so I’ve been told.”
"So if you press this button, the bed will fold up... Oh wait, I was supposed to press this when you're weren't lying on your stomach".
Ok class, scalpels down! I hope you all managed to locate and remove your own appendix. It's 60% of your grade!
Medical exam... get it? Please? Anyone?
tothemoon Ha that’s pretty good
So you’ve got a ringing in your ear you say. Hello?
3:11 OH MY GOSH YES
''Doctor did i tell you that i suffer from constipation? Yeah no shit''
The soulmates one 😂😂
There is a smug on the "n" in "wouldn't". Its distracting once you notice it.
Your welcome
Cora-san is King you're ?
Cora-san is King what?
What they mean is that there is a smudge on the letter N on the screen behind them in the word "Wouldn't". Which is fairly large and annoying to look at.
Robotninja27 oh yeah, I see. I must have been weirded af when reading it
Oh no doc don’t wash your hands. I don’t want my insides to smell like soap.
Doctor, an invisible man is sitting next to me
Well tell him I can’t see him right now
Bellendoscopi...... so true.
Doctor: "You may feel a small prick...hitting you with a very large hammer."
It's clear watching these clips that Acaster is on a different level to the rest
Doctor you’ve got to help me out
Oh yes, go to the hallway, go to the elevator, press down, and go back the way you came
I've missed you, James. :)
Put James acasters joke at 1:44 at 1.5x and it sounds funnier
James got a haircut and MTW IS BACK YESSS
Can someone please explain the curtain "a classic is a classic" joke?
02:15 He's trying to pull off one of those meta Milton Jones recycled old jokes.
"Doctor, I think I'm a pair of curtains."
"Pull yourself together."
Proof that Milton Jones is funnier than you think.
These... are actually pretty good
I see you have brought a sample, turns out it was apple juce from asda
Matt complains arbitrary numbers for MEASURING seasons
Me: Thinks of America and looks at the Imperical system
That was a good bunch!
Some of them look miserable as hell when they walk back 😂
"I'm sorry but the tests show you're totally deaf."
That black guy seemed really moody for this entire thing.
They were the staff, true lol
I left my urine sample in the bathroom, if you're wondering where your coffer went.
1:35 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
1:22 She looks IDENTICAL to my year 11 science teacher, wtf?
My goodness, Mock the Week has gone downhill over the past few years

These are funny lol but James and Hugh carries it
No
Well the bad news is you have about a week to live. But the good news is you're preg .... Oh wait!
Bellendoscopy 😂😂
Can someone explain the Rees-Mog joke, please? Non British here
Rees-Mogg is a particularly prickish British Politician with an intolerable upperclass affectation. He is notable for opinions that offend ordinary people.
I have some bad news and worse news
What’s the bad news
You have twenty four hours to live
What’s the worse news
I should’ve called you yesterday
Is it just me or has James’ voice got a tad higher since he first appeared on the show?
What’s the comedian called with the black t shirt
James Richards Ed Gamble
Anyone know where that black shirt with the skulls is from?
ed gamble
I can't help but notice that james looks exactly like shaggy from scooby doo 👀
can someone type out the classica a classic joke i didnt hear/understand it 😅😅
“Doctor, Doctor! I feel like a pair of curtains!”
“Well, pull yourself together!”
“Doctor, I’ve got a genuine mental disorder, that’s so inconsiderate!”
“Well, a classic’s a classic!”
Something along those lines.
@@h.perkins1840 ahaaaaa thank uuu
I remember that "constipation" joke from the 80s.
What's the beeping sound when they finish
Each person gets a certain amount of time to complete their joke, the buzzer tells them to get of the performance area so someone else can say something
He can’t even finish the joke 💀 2:25
Good
0:31 How many units do you drink a week,? 4? Tell ya what il just put Absolute lightweight
Doctor: I'm afraid your going to have to stop masturbating!
Patient: Why Doctor? Whats wrong?
Doctor: I'm trying to examine you.
What's the name of the guy in the black and white shirt?
2:05 to 2:16 i lost it
'Mrs Ono we have examined Mr Lennon and i can say that he's completely shot''
