Dara O Briain, Hugh Dennis, Tom Allen, Ed Gamble, Milton Jones, Zoe Lyons and Geoff Norcott.
I love it when Tom gets all wound up and starts ranting a story with essentially no punctuation. The child's birthday party story was epic.
I remember going to exactly that party 🥳
Ed Gamble's reaction to Milton's Ofsted joke is golden
When Ed scrunches his face when he laughs so that he looks a bit like a snarling tiger? Good stuff man
Time stamp?
@@taco8512 the joke's at 27:17
Milton is golden.
@Crazy Introvert T-Girl ofsted report on how good or bad a school is. If the headmaster is a neanderthal as per Jones' impression, it's the joke that the school has failed as a result
I like the way Tom Allen looks at the audience after he makes a joke and looks kind of pleased and surprised that they are laughing...
Sjinzar Austin he’s sickeningly smug as well
@@chrishopkins209- Hi, Chris! Yep. I'm sorry to say that I'm not a big fan of Tom's yet. Some guests are strictly solo stand-up performers (very good ones, too), but they're clearly a little insecure career-wise and have an ego that makes it hard for them to share an audience.
Some of the regulars have gone beyond the "Look at me, I'm almost a minor celebrity!" stage and happily share the spotlight: they'll willingly feed their fellow professionals straight lines, knowing that they'll not get the laugh this time...
Tom's too anxious that the camera's on somebody else.
Michael McIntyre and Sarah Millican are both brilliant on their own, too, but I find it quite uncomfortable watching them in shows where they're amongst fellow comedians.
Tom's clever and witty, but I think he likes to be completely in charge of proceedings, rather like Peter Kay and Lee Evans. (Lee is a holy terror to pin down if you've ever seen him interviewed on a chat show!)
Dara has a really tricky job keeping things under control. Fortunately he's a master of stand-up himself and has no ego issues; I think he's a terrific host.
I think Tom will mellow with time, but at the moment I'm not sure he's quite right for Mock the Week.
Just my opinion... :-)
@@EleanorPeterson iv never thought about it so in depth before but yeh im not a fan either
@@EleanorPeterson WOW. A lot of personal issues? He is funny and that is his persona. Trying to become a psych major?
@@EleanorPeterson I think you’re over analysing what is essentially part of his act with the whole arrogance and need for attention from everyone, if you watch any of his solo stuff it’s exactly the same
I love milton's boris Johnson disclaimer "boris may have had too many smarties" lol
True story 🏴🤪🤪🤪
Credit to him, Tom Allen's rants are hilarious.
He's much better now. In the beginning, most of his jokes were basically "I'm gay."
Hmmmm... before even watching, I was thinking, "that's not likely", but I agree Tom Allen was genuinely really funny in this.
He is getting better
I started wondering, "I wonder what he says to his psychiatrist?" and by the end thought, "oh, that's it right there!"
Best in show. Though beating Milton for sheer wackiness takes some doing.
Tom and Zoe should always be on together.
Not our area of expertise.
y e s 👏👏👏
Nope
MLM and WLW solidarity
Max Hughes u okay?
That was the PERFECT description of how I remember birthday parties, especially the part where the cake gets shoved into your gift bag because the parents have had enough of looking after 15+ kids (and I don't blame them).
Tom Allen is a full generation younger than I am, and he described every kids’ Birthday party I ever endured. Got to think kids’ Birthday parties are still the same.
He’s 19 years older than me and he described pretty much every kid’s birthday party _I_ ever endured! 😅
Tom Allen imploding and exploding at the same time is priceless
17:00 "Is it, 'what's a sad number of giraffes to see on an open-top bus?'"
Now they're all looking at me strangely as I laugh maniacally, and I don't think I can rightly explain that...
Nothing for it but to embrace the Hawaiian shirts as your lords and saviours...
As someone on the other side of the world, I now understand far more about Brexit from watching this season of Mock The Week five years later, than I ever did from news coverage at the time
Big fan of Hugh. Such a quick, intelligent comedian. Stay safe. 😷
Hugh returns with Great God Imhotep! Now I'll wait here for Showaddywaddy and car insurance
He can't do Showaddywaddy- that's in the voice of Jimmy Savile.
And don't forget Sepladder
Showaddywaddy always makes me laugh
If you're waiting for the Jimmy Saville impression, you're going to be disappointed... :O
Same here!
The birthday bit reminded me of a tumblr post which said out of context, the birthday cake process is kind of cult like, where people sit in the dark until an object on fire is brought in. They all chant together and at the end the object is extinguished. Then a knife is stuck into the object.
I'm usually so so on Tom Allen's style of comedy but in this one he's ON FIRE🤣
Enamel!
Tom was on fire today. Killed me!
amphetamean-queen Oh sod off. Can’t I just not like a comedian without being accused of homophobia. Even bringing up his sexuality kind of makes you the person with the issues.
@@ob2395 calm down eddy boy.
I love how Milton's team got none of the points but still won
Well, that's *ballance* innit?
The hate mail the Beeb would have got if Norcott had lost would have been quite a deluge.
@@ThatCoalSoul Only because Norcott is unfairly hated upon
Tell me you don't know winning means nothing without telling me you don't know winning means nothing. Dara has said that from the beginning. Its random.
@@theravenhaslanded321 did i ever say that it was stupid
The part about kids parties has me in stitches!! OMG every word was spot on from my childhood !!!!
Tom Allen is getting better. Milton though is still a god.
Milton still a Sideshow Bob
Great job Tom!
Meh. Milton just does bits of his live act with very little relevance to the subject behind him. He *was* a comedy god a decade ago but he's in that mid-career rut most comedians go through. Allen is, like Nish Kumar, best when deviating from his "gay/brown people be like this, straight/white people be like that" schtick.
25:29 “Next it’s good morning north west, or, as it should be called, y’alright?”
That made me laugh so much. As a Yorkshire person, it’s very accurate
It’s just a common thing we say. Even to someone you do t know, it’s just “y’alright.” That might be the only thing you ever say to someone
Ed's reaction to Tom an Zoe at 23:44 was brilliant
Edit: and 27:25
The last one is actually quite scary
I can always rely on Milton to make puns so good they make me angry.
hahahaha
How brilliant is Milton!!! How brilliant is Tom!!! Both on the same show? YAAASSSS!!
Tom Allen...still underrated. Should go to US. HE would break the bank.
Tom Allen's rant sounded like him trying to cram a 15 minute routine into 3 minutes. :P
Hilarious nonetheless.
God watching this in 2020 really makes all of Geoff Norcott's "jokes" hit even less.
The Holly Willoughby will always be such a weird and seedy one, a couple of decades too old to be 'funny'
Many thanks from Japan.
Another great episode.
It seems to be less about the topical humour and more just about the humour sometimes, but every one's a winner!
Tom's brilliant at his rants.
Great name.
I love that they picked Milton and Tom, because their styles are so different!
I’ve watched this several times and just now realized that Dara, a straight man, is explaining Grindr to Tom, a gay man.
My god Toms birthday rant... that was a thing of wonder!
I am a simple man... I see Milton Jones in the thumbnail, I click...
Yeah, 'cause being a simpleton is a clear point of pride, regardless of how funny the man actually is.
17:00 A surprisingly dark one from Milton...
That had me laughing. He has some dark jokes mixed in with his silly, and nonsensical ones. But you don't here them much when he isn't doing standup.
Thanks! I thought they were all good, but Tom was smashing it!
Love Tom Allen!
Roundy Roundy bally come back lmao
Boris Johnson in the wheat field looks exactly like Melissa Gilbert in the opening credits of Little House on the Prairie.
Agreed!!!
The Uber joke was spot on even in RSA.
Tom Allen is a hoot and a half...
Omg the Chinese horse whispers got me i choked on my soft drink it went up my nose and i accidently breathed it in all at the same time
Tom Allen should do documentaries he has a good voice for it
If you look carefully, at 29:10, Geoff Norcott has the jokes written on his palms. That's why he kept looking at them all the time.
That, or he’s got disgustingly dirty/hairy hands.
I thought that was the rash from his masturbation cream.
Good spot!
What's funny is there is a lesbian dating app called "Zoe" 😂
Muffler sounds perfect though
Shouldn't that be 'Mufflr"?
Autocorrect.
Spice girls, the magna Carta, and a jar of Marmite.... Sounds like a great night out.
I love Mock of the week lol
That immigrant/Uber joke was hilarious. So was the "doing other jobs when you have a deadline coming"🤣 Boris looks like he's in a "Little House on the Prairie" intro
Tom is completely hilarious
Ed Gamble should become a regular. There used to be 5 + Dara
I'm one of the many who believes he's on too often
...the fact I'm a hobbyist public comedian of at least 5 years is sheer coincidence in that matter.
Geoff was so dull. I've literally never heard someone booed 4x on one episode!
Hes funnier on other shows
First up to UpLoad MTW!!! Ovid Wins!!!!!! please collect your heaping piles of appreciation and gratitude from these comments. Thank You Very Much!!
the quality on this is great ty so much for the upload!!
also somebody please get Ed an iron for his shirt
9:06 "How do you hack Jacob Rees-Mogg?"
Well, step one is you mug the town crier.
Genuinely funnier than anything they came up with!
This is much funnier that anything in the show.
Funny how Hugh confuses Prezzo with Zizzi’s in Salisbury, however 9(ish) months after there was another nerve agent scare in Salisbury in Prezzo...
The baby doesn't just come out of the cup... 😂😂😂😂
LOL Geoff's comment about Brexit being 'just fine' hasn't aged well hahaha what a plank
His humour is so bizarre.Weird kicking his target audience down by supporting policies that would directly affect the middle and working class - not sure he's finding it so funny now paying additional % for foods/items/services no longer supplemented by the EU
No Ed Byrne? Shame.
He should be a regular!
I feel like he's on this quite frequently
No frankie Boyle either :(
No I guess they wanted to take a Gamble on someone else.
(silently gets coat and closes door)
funniest program on tv, thanks for uploading.
Who else had flashbacks when Tom talked about birthday parties.
pin the tail on the donkey
it's hilarious watching this now and hearing them mention salisbury so much
With Bojo it was likely to be wild oats he's running through
Tom Allen's stand-up was so funny xD Also, Dara: Who believes they have 1,000 siblings? Tom: Ohhhh, that bloke!!! xD
Mock the week is soo Hugh Dennis, he doesn't even get mentioned in the title
This is the episode where the team on the right won every round but the team on the left won the show.
Milton Jones is epic, love that guy 😎
Very strong episode this week! Much obliged!
Milton Jones - always funny, never crude. Hugh Dennis sometimes funny, usually crude.
Tom Allen was fantastic here.
Tom's standup went well, so I thought Milton was in trouble, then he broke out the one-liners and I forgot anything that first guy said. XD Then he pulls that giraffe joke... boom!
11:16 The following sketch is sheer brilliance...the absolute epitome of Parent-Terror...
Captain Agriculture sounds like an interesting superhero tbh 🤔🌾🌾💥
5:47 In 2022... If only they'd known...
Aaand now I am listening to Stormzy "Big for your boots". XD
Just Zoe and Tom. loved the gay run to the stage, with the dramatic heel turn.
Haven't seen this for years!thanks from Mauritius
Thank you, from Tennessee
I'm 15 and this was my childhood
Tom is slowly improving. He seems to understand which of his jokes people find funny now.
Still think hes majorly unfunny but thats just me
No. You have started enjoying his comedy. I always did
@@siffegy homophobia does that🤣🤣
@@theravenhaslanded321 bruv finding one gay person unfunny doesnt mean homophobic
Thanks man, just missed it on television in Belgium!
Why does the design for Johnson's bridge looks like a Wall.
And the caretaker has asked me to say
Take care
There's nobody like Milton.
Thank goodness.
Aw god brilliant 😂
Confused how Hughs team won, eds team won every round that episode???
Because it's completely nonsense :D As they say on Whose Line Is It Anyway : "the points don't matter".
They edit out several rounds and jokes =/
I was thinking exactly same thing.
Your shoes are nearly ready, master.
Dara did an interview where he basically says the scoring system is just made up
Thanks for uploading!
10:14 they missed a chance to say that's the sound for Muffler
"How might a tosser say 5.30" 😂😂
Were that catchwords for jokes that were written on his hand 24:39 lol.
Why is the Muffler app not being developed yet ?
Hmm strange that Totem Tennis was sold as Swing Ball in the UK.
Thanks very much!!
10:19 I have never noticed that they all have notes until now.
An episode or two before this Ed Gamble teased Dara about Brian Cox and Ed Burnes reacted by throwing his notebook at Gamble. It was very funny.
A bridge. Sure. Someone tried that already, you know that? You can see the results up north of Bushmills in County Antrim. They call it the "Giant's Causeway". Didn't go over so well, did it?
Tom Allen making middle class jokes like he isn't the picture of middle class himself
Nearly spat my coffee out at 27:18. Milton is sensational.
Thanks for that Milton, never realised I was such a dreadful human being until you pointed it out.... a Lancashire lass.
Perfect panel:
Frankie Boyle
Ed Byrne
Tim Vine
Ed Gamble
Jimmy Carr
Stewart Francis
geoff norcutt-as funny as root canal work
There's something about Milton.
How many times does Hugh Dennis look up at the screen does he keep forgetting what he's supposed to be joking about!!
I think its his deadpan delivery so after he jokes, he looks away for composure maybe.
I think its his deadpan delivery. As in after he delivers a joke, he looks away to gain composure perhaps?
Dara killing it in this one
@7:40 I think that is the neatest I have ever seen Boris' hair.
I really like Milton
the big windmill joke was better than the audiance understood
