Since I live in Basingstoke, I now have exact visualisations of James Acaster asleep in a bush in a red dress by the train station. I will now think that every time I am at the station now.
It made me look it up with Google Maps and found the spot where the taxis are waiting for customers with a bush close by which I assume was the one he was referring to.... so funny when he says 'gentrified' in response yo David Mitchel's question were the leafs 'variegated?' James is so funny the way he brings his story...
This might be my all time favourite WILTY clip. I’ve watched it so many times and there are loads of great moments from everyone! I especially love Melvin’s realisation that James wasn’t just wearing a dress in the bush 😂
Fun fact: a dismembered body in a bag was actually found at Basingstoke train station a few years ago. The murderer was a depressed Buddhist monk. He was working at a hotel in the town and killed one of his work colleagues.
The worst thing you can do is lie straight on the ground with nothing in between you and the ground. The Earth and your body will move into a type of thermal equilibrium. The best thing you can do is separate yourself from the ground, so the heat transfer is slowed down. A bench exposed to the wind might be worse compared to sitting in a bush in your t-shirt, but in other cases the bench would've been better.
I did too, almost. Missed a train connection so just stayed the night outside Basingstoke station. I wasn't in a dress, mind you. And I was on the other side of the station, ended up just leant up against the wall of the station. Less hoodlums that side too. No idea why this other fella wants a bench so badly! That's the opposite of shelter.
the bush-bench debate is interesting. I actually think the bench would be warmer, as you lose so much of your body heat to the ground. If you could use some kind of air mattress in the bush, that would be the warmest. If not, a bench that's not in direct gale-force winds would probably be better.
@@colemantrebor6574A (wood) bench would be a better insulator, meaning you wouldn’t lose as much heat. However, a bush would almost certainly be warmer due to the lack of wind. One thing James says is that the bush was roomy though, which is also bad for heat preservation.
Says a lot about David automatically assuming everyone has the money for a “luxury hotel”…not just a regular hotel, or a motel - a luxury hotel. He’s always struck me as a conceited person, but Jesus…
Almost as if he was playing theft and shrubbery.
😂😂😂
We do beg your pardon, but we are in your garden
Theft and shrubbery but the twist is you have to be in a dress with a bag on your head 😂

I know the area myself, I think its even more funny with that context
I will send this clip to all my friends visiting Basingstoke train station 😂 so they can go on an adventure!

tell us about the leaves on the bush ?
Whatever floats your boat
Legend has it that he slept in a bush because he was trying to avoid the curse of the cabbages
I slept in same bush

This one and the cabbage story

I don’t know how fun that fact is but thanks!
@@hockeyd171 that's a fact that puts the fun in funeral
Crazy
Even more bizarrely it happened twice! In 2001 and 2008
A hotel/buddhist monastery?
Bush is definitely better than a bench. I'm team bush.
For sure, only in the case of frozen ground might the bench be warmer, although wind/precipitation levels matter a lot.
Clearly the best option is to uproot the bush and put it on a bench.
@@kryptonianguest1903or put a bench in a bush
not necessarily. you lose a lot more heat to the ground than the air

He always looks like he's actively upset when people laugh at his jokes
He did say that he consider people laughing at him as his enemies in the cabbage clips
@@yuki97kiraCabbage clips 😂
Melvin literally got everything he said 100% wrong. And there were three or four assumptions in the space of 45 seconds of talking. 🤣
"It's a good thing this didn't happen to Melvin" 😂😂

*Fewer hoodlums
Lee's face throughout is just looking at James like a proud dad 😂
He should have gone to the University Open Day since he was there anyway.
There's noooo university 😂
Ah so theft and shrubbery without the theft 😂
James Acaster, is 😂 so funny, I could get choked laughing . I want to see more of him.
I'm beggin' your pardon
I'm in your bush.................
No wait.....there's something not quite right here
james acaster is my stepmoms cousin lol

No because you are exposed to the wind from all directions. Haven't you watched any Bear Grill?
You lose body heat to the bench instead of the ground now and you are much more exposed.

I think we can theorise only so much. How far from Basingstoke do you live? (or do you know anyone who lives there)
I would like him to come back to our bush
and the bush is still traumatised
his stories are always the most ridiculous and always true 😅
I love Basingstoke. For personal reasons.
That’s so strange I live in Basingstoke I know exactly where he means😭😭
I love J-Akaster
Not quite. He's called James Acaster
