      The way they said it, it seemed like they were saying that he didn’t really reference the 4 weeks during his bit except the one time, so you could just end it at “Jon’s girlfriend left him alone” which doesn’t sound like a breakup.

      @@wahahabuh He took the predetermined topic of adventure, and then inverted the topic to his lack of adventurousness to suit his repertoire of jokes and routines more organically. I've heard him tell that exact series of jokes without the 'I'm not very adventurous' qualifier before them in one of his earlier Comedy Store appearances. In fact, maybe a little over half the jokes I've heard during this segment of the show are jokes that I've already heard the comedian make in specials or at Edinburgh or somewhere else - particularly Ed and Russell. Acaster even pokes fun at how lucky it is that he has recently moved house and thus has a whole bit when he is 'assigned' the topic of Moving House. Hell, a decent proportion of the jokes they tell during the bits that are supposed to be topical (as in based on recent news) are recycled jokes from old routines - again particularly with Ed and Russell, but that might be because I've seen more of their stuff than I have of other guests and regulars.

      When he was working with Ray Peacock, their shtick seemed to be Ray acting thick and Ed acting condescendingly (but Ray's character was too thick to realise he was being patronised). To be honest, it sounded more like they were role-playing bullying than comedy. Ed's toned it down a lot since then, but I think I saw that arrogance resurface a bit on Taskmaster. I suspect that, off stage, he is probably extremely arrogant.
      But perhaps my dislike of Peacock and Gamble has prejudiced me against him. Perhaps I'm imagining the arrogance.

    Didn't Sara Pascoe, abort John Robins child, because she decided she no-longer loved him.
    When she gets asked what happend, she says "I had a tapeworm".

      @AJ17 Hi.
      No talking about her second abortion.
      This was 2016.
      In fact she was about 16 Weeks Pregnant when they appeared together again on an episode of "Mock the Week".
      Something was said about Marriage during the episode.
      Later in 2017, when asked about it, she shrugged it off saying she had "had a Tapeworm".
      They had split up at this point.

      This isnt true.
      somehow a joke about "Ive never had a baby, but i have had a tapeworm" has become this myth?!

      Bit like the fact that you exist then.
