When the Chris Morris character committed suicide, it was a reference to Robert Maxwell of Mirror group Newspaper. His daughter, Ghislaine Maxwell is probably well known to everyone watching for other reasons.
I hand-on-heart was at Pinewood Studios in the audience for this taping of "The Golden Child" & had no idea that we would witness the death of Denholm!! On the night Matt Berry was sooo nervous playing Douglas that he messed up his lines a ton & there was a lot of giggling by the cast during the vibrate scenes 😂😂
I believe the actor playing Denholm had other commitments and had to leave. On the flip side, we get the tremendous Matt Berry instead. Swings and roundabouts!
Matt Berry is tremendous, but not in this. Not his fault, apart from deciding to take the role. This series was a bad introduction to Matt Berry for me! If only Chris Morris had stayed!
@@Will-nn6ux For me, it was the exact opposite. At the time of The IT Crowd's original run, I was already a massive fan of Chris Morris, from his previous work on shows like The Day Today and Brass Eye. However, I felt he was always underwhelming in this role and never really matched the vibe of the show. When Matt Berry took over, I felt it was a far better fit and preferred his performances in this role far more.
Matt Berry and Richard Ayoade were both in Garth Marenghi's Darkplace before this. That's a 6 episode free-to-watch gem of a piss-take on badly made TV shows and bad horror writers. The creators have allowed it to be uploaded complete on YT on multiple channels, so there is a very low likelihood of them doing copyright nuisance to you if you decide to react to it.
@@caitypierulestheworld6963 it's my opinion that matters 😄. Actually, they are all good. I saw the sea park one again within the last 2 days. It is very funny.
@@caitypierulestheworld6963 are you a minor? It's just occurred to me that this episode heavily features death which will seem remote to you compared to myself who was middle-aged when I first saw it. There's a theory of comedy that says we laugh at what scares or unsettles us. You seem fairly clever. If you give it some thought you may agree. Anyway, it's all subjective of course.
Favourite character was literally just replaced. Matt Berry's character is in no way second fiddle to the original. Prepare for a new favourite character
What I like about today's reaction was they think Denholm was the best in the series... they don't know his son properly yet 🤣 matt berry makes this show!
I hated Matt Berry when he appeared. I knew all the regular characters, and suddenly some annoying stranger had appeared and was taking up screen time. In time I found him a much more amusing character than Denholm.
It might be because of the suicide nature of it and UA-cams strictness, but it might just be to make sure the best reaction parts are kept for patreon. I'm really glad they didn't do this with the last episodes best bits as that would have been a war crime 😄
I believe his father returns in the later episode where him and Douglas have a chat in what looks to be vision of the gates of heaven that’s all I’ll say don’t want to spoil it any further.
I believe Chris Morris (Denholm) had to be written out of the series so he could work on his comedy movie about suicide bombers, 'Four Lions' now there's a damn good movie worth reacting to.
What if we told you that we've already reacted to the brilliant "Four Lions" movie in Patreon and that we'll be jail-breaking movie reactions really soon?
Been waiting for you to get to this ep. Turning point in the series. Matt Berry is so good. Check him out in the American remake of what we do in the shadows of you haven't already
Whilst Denham was a fantastic character, Douglas is the star moving forward. Matt Berry is just superb. Once you’re done with the IT Crowd, I suggest Toast of London…
Guys there was no cliffhanger, it’s just an ending. You should get our stuff by now! It’s just a good, funny pay off. That’s it, you’re not supposed to read anything in to it.
❤ til next time ttfn ps can't recall if it's in season 2 or 3 but watch out the friend face episode I mean there stitch in the side funny but then there's the ones that are laugh your pants & socks funny
my mum's friend & my old friend's mum had Tarot readings, surprisingly my mum never wanted to know her future, maybe because it would have mentioned her death in 2005
Good episode, Douglas is a really funny Boss as you will find out in later episodes. If you want to react to an even funnier series than The IT Crowd, check out a UK comedy show called "Facejacker". Basically it features the now famous comedian/film actor Kayan Novak, disguising himself as various eccentric characters and comedy trolling the public. To get a feel of the show, good clip to start on might be. "Dufrais At The Baseball Game | Facejacker " (the 8.47 minute clip) or "Brian Babonde Takes A Painting Class | Facejacker ". Facejacker is the funniest show I have seen this century, nothing has topped it.
You keep.on saying 'have you tried turning it on and off again" That's not it!! They did to have it on in.the first place to know theres n issue. So he asks them 'have you tried turning it OFF and ON again?'
This is probably my fave episode, tho hard to pick. The funeral especially is very funny, very far from my actual experience of Christiam funerals. Also im fairly sure that in the church of england (im assuming this is anglican) all vicars are priests.

You of course mean Matt Berry
@@KevPage-Witkicker Of course I will edit it now

And what a way to leave! 😆
I heard that Matt Berry was always the intended boss, but was initially unavailable, so Chris Morris stepped in for series 1
Could be wrong though
Would you like a pen? Please take the pen…

SILENCE, PRRRIEST! 😂 I love Matt Berry so much. I can't choose which boss I like better 😄
"One of the most eccentric characters... you can't get rid of him that quickly..." enter Matt Berry... "Hold My Beer!"
The bit in the church with Roy and the phone is hands down one of the funniest things I've seen. Had me in stitches. 😂
this is the one of the best episodes lol Matt Berry was such a good addition to this lol
I think his first appearance in this episode was a bit weird and I wasn't a fan. But after a few more episodes he became my favorite

Definitely a show to check out. The more I watch it, the funnier it gets!
I'm so glad you guys are enjoying this. IT crowd is one of the best things ever on TV
You missed Will's mum as the widow.
Yes, Belinda Stewart-Wilson... Will's mum, Polly. I hadn't realised until you mentioned it.
@@stewedfishproductions7959 She plays two characters in The IT Crowd.
@@RobertTaylor-gz2fuyeah one of Douglas previous wives.
They'll do Primeval sooner or later...
For me, the best episode of the I.T. crowd. Both actors playing the managers were very funny. Pity you had to cut the old boss 'stepping down'.

One of the best intros to a character I have seen in a long time.
Matt Berry is hilarious in this show. He is also in What we do In the Shadows, and he is awesome in that too
Favourite character was literally just replaced. Matt Berry's character is in no way second fiddle to the original. Prepare for a new favourite character
This is a quality episode, Douglas is my fav character but there's no beating the staff night out ep
Street Countdown is on par with Staff Outing I think
Don't mourn the loss too much, Matt Berry is a class act and brightens up the rest of the episodes no end.
What I like about today's reaction was they think Denholm was the best in the series... they don't know his son properly yet 🤣 matt berry makes this show!
Personally, I’m not a fan of the character. In small doses I enjoy what he adds but sometimes I find him just stupid.

Matt Berry's managed to establish himself as a credible singer-songwriter and composer too . take a listen folks .
Return of the KING! 👑
Interesting you noticed Jay and Neil's Dad but not Will's Mum the ubermilf 😅
Denholm's exit from the series was, is and always be one of the funniest things ever, and you cut it from you edit?
UA-cam is ridiculously censorious nowadays, they might have skipped it because it was a suicide.

UNHAND ME PRRRIEST!
Matt Berry is Hillarious!, you need to check him out in Toast Of London & Garth Marenghi's Dark Place. Richard Ayoade (Moss) is also in it.
Matt Berry and what we do in the shadows is the best thing ever created vampire wise lol
Douglas is in The IT Crowd for longer than Denholm.
You missed the other inbetweeners cast member, the widow was Wills mum.
Richmond should've been in The IT Crowd more.
That vicar is such a good actor so good in "The Thick Of It"
Anyone who's a fan of Matt Berry and hasn't seen Garth Marenghi's Darkplace ... Do it now.
Moss was trying to give his pen to Will's mum! :D
This is where it starts... properly!!! 😁😁😁
I believe his father returns in the later episode where him and Douglas have a chat in what looks to be vision of the gates of heaven that’s all I’ll say don’t want to spoil it any further.
This is the best episode ever. Roy in the church is just hilarious.
Things are gonna get crazier now Matt Berry's made an appearance 😂
Note: "Have you tried turning it on and off again" would result in the computer being off, and therefore not resolve the issue. 😉
I said before about that, still says same way lol
@@mlee6050TBF, I'm guessing these were recorded a while ago.
Just watch Matt Berry (Renholm 2) in “What We Do With n The Shadows”
Pure comic genius.
I believe Chris Morris (Denholm) had to be written out of the series so he could work on his comedy movie about suicide bombers, 'Four Lions' now there's a damn good movie worth reacting to.

You guys missed Will's Mum at the entrance to the church. The one Moss kissed on the cheek
If you guys haven't seen The Might Boosh yet, I highly recommend it.
Whilst Denham was a fantastic character, Douglas is the star moving forward. Matt Berry is just superb. Once you’re done with the IT Crowd, I suggest Toast of London…
"I'm here for a good time, not a long time."
Is that what you say to all the girls?😉🤣🤣🤣
4:32 - not ‘on and off again’ 😂
‘That’s a beautiful second name’ 😂
You need to watch all the shows Matt berry stars in or is in he is my favourite comedy actor and so underrated but loved by all who know him
Guys there was no cliffhanger, it’s just an ending. You should get our stuff by now! It’s just a good, funny pay off. That’s it, you’re not supposed to read anything in to it.
And in that vein, Richmond and Heat magazine last ep - you weren’t supposed to infer from that he was gay.
Did you not spot Belinda Stewart-Wilson as Denolm's widow? AKA Mrs McKenzie or Will's mum from 'Inbetweners'
"Unhand me, Preist!"
FYI they put in bleeps when the phone goes off it wasn't a channel 4 sensoring it was part of the joke
Douglas is going to be quite a character in the rest of the series, don't worry too much...
Douglas is a great character…absolutely hilarious!!
Chris Morris who plays Denam is one of my favourite comedic actors, you should check out some Brass Eye and The Day Today ;)
The ambulance bit is hilarious the screaming
You need to watch Matt Berry in The Toast of London
Brilliant as always
It just gets better & better!
Matt becomes the 4th main character for me .
3rd Inbetweeners reference. The widow was Will's mum.
It's not possible the predict the exact date, but with the data available about people's lives these days, we can predict to within 5 years.
I was sad to see Denholm go. Such a great character.
Don't worry about losing the Boss as the son easily fills his shoes. Just as whacky as the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
you missed another inbetweeners character. reynholm's widow is will's mum!
God damn these electric sex pants!
There were some cut clips on this version.
I think you'll love Matt Berry as the new boss!
personally, i think the greatest episode is when the new boss gets a girlfriend.
You mean the one “from Iran”?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
OFF AND ON! Not on and off again!
Never knew Eddie Murphy made a sequel. 😂
As one day is going to make a difference for 1 in 4 years.
The widow was Will's mum as well.
Nice one boys👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽
SPEAK PRIEST!!!!!
"FAAAARRRRTHAAAA!" 😆 -x-
You guys need to do still game
❤ til next time ttfn ps can't recall if it's in season 2 or 3 but watch out the friend face episode I mean there stitch in the side funny but then there's the ones that are laugh your pants & socks funny
Douglas Renolm is great.
FATHERRRRR!!
my mum's friend & my old friend's mum had Tarot readings, surprisingly my mum never wanted to know her future, maybe because it would have mentioned her death in 2005

Denham 2 blows Denham 1 outta’ the water!!!!!
Matt berry ❤
You keep.on saying 'have you tried turning it on and off again" That's not it!!
They did to have it on in.the first place to know theres n issue.
So he asks them 'have you tried turning it OFF and ON again?'

Also im fairly sure that in the church of england (im assuming this is anglican) all vicars are priests.
god I love matt berry
FATHERRRRRRRRRR
Fatherrrrrrrrrr
The series gets so much better with Desmond in it.
Funny you didn't recognise Denholm's wife as Will's mum from Inbetweeners. She comes back later to play Reynholm's estranged wife as well.
Aw c'mon.
If your going to steal a catchphrase, at least get it right !
It's OFF and on again.
NOT
on and off again
You guys edited over virtually every punchline lol
Why is it all cut ??
What's funnier it crowd or father ted
Father Ted but they're both great
it crowd is smarter and better
Who edited this one...
Disapointed, how can you cut out the best punchlines… ulnes its Gatekeeped at patreon?
I love how their new boss is just Donald Trump if he dedicated his life to just being a stupid rich guy instead of an aspiring dictator.
It is often outsourced nowadays so it's not unrealistic to get rid of the it department.
Why as it so chopped up this time?
FAAAAATHERRR
