A joke you probably missed is when Rob told Greg on David's team to "Hold on, you're jumping ahead" and Lee says "He's allowed to do that". That's Greg Rutherford who won the gold at 2012 Olympics for the long jump.
Oh thankyou James! I knew by the crowd reaction that the joke went over our heads, but I assumed it was a call back to a joke from earlier in that episode. That makes so much sense now haha, thanks for the context! :D
You are so right about the times being different, as regards trust, and the things that enter your mind now, v. decades ago. An odd thing is, because of having grown up, traveled, dated, etc., in more innocent times, I wasn't even struck, as y'all were, by the potential danger, or any oddness of Henning's behavior in light of that danger. When I was young, we all joined up with strangers all the time, relatively privileged and innocent as we were, feeling everything was one big adventure with nothing but fun around the corner (it's embarrassing to admit, but true. We were so incredibly naive...in part, I think, because we had no modern media to hit us over our heads with every horror that occurred anywhere on earth). Get this: I was bopping down the street in NYC when a guy my age or a bit older (I was about 19 at the time, in my first year of college) approached me, told me he was a photographer, raved about how beautiful I was, and asked me if I'd go up to his nearby studio so he could photograph me (classic, no? How many true crime murders have we now heard about that begin like that?) He said he'd develop the photos on the spot and give me copies of the professional-quality photos for free. So off I went with him, up to some random NYC apartment, with no cell phones having been invented and no one knowing where I was. Amazing as it seems in retrospect, he did exactly as he'd said he would: he took a bunch of head shots, over what seemed to me at the time a surprisingly long photo session, and gave me a full set of prints of those he selected as the best/keepers. It never even occurred to me that he might ask me to take my clothes off, that's how naive I was at the time. But everyone I knew was that way, as were all the people my age I met in my life and travels at the time. When I showed my friends the photos, no one ever so much as hinted at the risk I'd taken. In fact, it's not impossible I showed the shots to my parents, and they didn't react with horror either. Even the adults were very innocent in those days, unless they'd grown up in really rough circumsttances (I'm guessing a lot fewer child molesters got caught back then; we never even heard of such a thing, except as some kind of freakishly rare occurrence. My sixth grade teacher got hauled off in front of the whole school for messing with one of his students, and still we didn't generalize. We just thought he was some kind of total abberation and let it go at that. That kind of thing It just wasn't spoken of, and again, we had no internet, UA-cam, etc. to educate us as to how common it was even when it had happened right under our noses. Anyway, I think back about going up to that guy's studio after meeting him on the street, and marvel that I'm here to tell the tale...and marvel even more when I realize that was just one of many now-I-know-were-crazy risks I, and so many others, regularly took at the time. So Henning's going to the home of some random Moroccan stranger, and picking up a heavy suitcase en route, sounds to me like just the normal kind of thing one does while traveling!
Great reaction guys👍I was fortunate to see Henning doing stand up at our local theatre and he was hilarious, just the way he says very British things as a German accent is a brilliant laugh ✌️
How lucky are you Martin! That would be a great show! That's how I describe him as well, the comedy comes so much from his UK-isms combined with a thick German accent haha.
OK guys, I've not watched all your reaction videos yet, but I hope you've seen Henning Wehn's (He's European so the "w" is pronounced "v") early stand up shows? Totally recommended.
Great suggestion! I've only seem Chris pop up on panel shows a couple of times before but he is always hilarious, very keep to check this one out :D Thanks!

The ginger haired guy on the left is an Olympic and World Championship Gold Medallist. Hence the "Jump ahead " joke
What I wonder is, when he met up with his friend again, did Henning say, "Oh, hi Mark."
Hahaha that joke was just sitting there for the taking and I didn't see it ( I DID NOOOOT).. well played BK.
