In the face of horrible world events and future uncertainty for the UK, Richard recounts how his wife distracted him from the horror in an unexpected way, before introducing former pole-dancer and oil rig worker, Marcus Brigstocke. They discuss an impressions battle with Kevin Spacey, the full script of Love Actually, the second worst thing that Clement Freud ever did and Marcus provides a scintillating new emergency question.
Find out the many reasons Marcus got expelled from schools, why he is glad he is not part of the governing class and which puppet Richard would like to violate now. More discussion about the West London phone book of 1989 and the science of a swimming pool full of custard. Plus the chance to find out what the Wales score was at half-time in the final group match of the Euros.

These really cheer me up, thanks Mr Rich.
this is one of my faves . I love how Marcus is unapologetically posh
Really enjoyed that Richard, flew by, very loose and free (in both senses). Thank you.
but I like the opening bits...it's that quiet moment, to get up close and personal, it's that time when we get to experience the personal exchange of thoughts and ideas and be reminded how we can be even more closely in contact with one another.......flogflogflog...
hopefully soon we will all be at the benefit of the bestowing goodness here's some now, Marcus Brigstocke so lovingly brought to us via...this...internet thing......Thanks Mr. H!!
If Marcus feels he missed out on being in halls at Bristol, then he's welcome to visit and see what it's like... we still test fire alarms at 08:30 on a Tuesday and by the end of term there are no spoons available at dinner.
wow! That's epic timing, Macus Brigstocke, the first week you found out about the Brexit :D Shall be enjoying this one fosure :)
recorded before the brexit vote.
+Richard Herring Doh! :( My bad. I'm guessing I shall probably still enjoy it :D & I shall just have to wait another week until we can commiserate together :(
I guess it's 2 weeks until a post brexit episode then? Ah well :) Twas most enjoyable as ever :D
I've watched a whole bunch of these in the wrong order and I was not prepared to hear the "away or toward" question from a guest then loved the Richard writing it down moment. This is what "Solo: A Star Wars Story" hoped it's "Solo" moment would be.
I wish we were in Europe like Rich was he sounds so happy
So funny, the best so far
This is one of the best interviews
Ah we are history.
Brilliant series.
I'll never forget the one where they reacted a child sweatshop in a call centre.
Amazing.
Nice work Richard - Could you get Andy Hamilton on? Go on....
Happy birthday for yesterday! May you live as long as you want but never want as long as you live. Are you any closer to getting vic reeves?
already recorded that one - out in 2 weeks
Skip to 40:00 to be roughly half way through the podcast, then go back to 00:00 to watch it from the beginning LIKE YOU SHOULD!
Just in time for my lunch break, cheers
Great episode Richard and happy birthday for the other day! If you do go on I've Never Seen Star Wars what would be the things you'd be willing to try for the first time??
"Impressions of people you can't really do anymore with Kevin Spacey"
Bit awkward now...
We should go back into the EU.
Boris took us out. Not a fan of Boris
Yes. More of this please. Worth every pound...which at this rate is about $0.79
Well. It's amazing what can change in a few weeks!
one of the best ever....never knew I liked Marcus..top bloke
I think people form an opinion on him because he's well spoken. Which isn't really fair.
great episode! is the david cross one coming next week?
yes
How about Graham Fellows for last week in July?
only if it's in character!
Bit late I know, but have you been to Jorvik in York? At the end of the time-traveling journey it says "And now we return to 1984".
Marcus Brigstocke stole much of my name :(
you can still call yourself "addo"
could call myself Igst'e but maybe i should put an act together first. I've written 3 jokes, if i was stuart lee i could stretch it over a career..
marcus Braddock radio dj doctor Neil Fox stole much of my name. Dick head he isn't even medically qualified.
@@monkeechicken
Have it out with him.
He's out of order doing that.
I know he's a big guy but I have faith in you, Grasshopper.
I think you could take him.
hes wearing purple socks on the purple question lol.
rem299 good spot
Have you asked Crier, Parsons, Brooke-Taylor & Garden yet Richard? Hislop and Merton too. There's a lot of people to go yet isn't there?
ha Drew Barrymore has always been top of my list. thought i was the only one!
I've read a bunch of stuff about dodos almost by accident and found that there are lots of conflicting opinions on their demise. They weren't tasty, but sufficed. A few things did them in. They had no natural predators so 1) they and their eggs were done in by pigs and dogs and 2) because they had no predators, the sound of a gun, rather than send them packing, actually made them curious, so they came out to investigate the source of the noise.
Which rhelstp (rhefp?) guest has a collection of actual muppet puppets?
Ray Peacock
Ray Peacock
Correct! :D
35:50 I find that so bleak and a bit disturbing
Richard Curtis is married to Emma Freud, niece of Clement. Spooky!
3:55 That explains why you're together then :)
Thank God Spacey is still normal. Phew.
What? Oh, fuck.
*Richard asks purple question*
*Marcus see's his own socks*
Marcus: "I'm circumcised. Are you?"
I liked that!
why can't I find this on my podcast app it still says your latest podcast is lovern
you will have to ask the people who do you app, suspect it's cos that's for audio and the audio's not up yet
+Richard Herring ah okay appreciate it watched this instead so no worries
I did not know that that all the musician Muppets were based on real musicians. Can anyone put them all out as a list. I suppose animal is Keith Moon
Socks Marcus, your socks are purple!
The world is mostly rock (some of it molten), so maybe Phil and Marcus will travel back in time to help form the Earth at a point in the future.
Janice has actually gone on to have a successful career as a stand-up comedian under the name "Katherine Ryan".
I wish I could wear purple socks and forget I'm wearing purple socks :/
Well hello from the future... where everything is indeed a wasteland, and people are still getting shot :/
Very late to this but I'm pretty sure that the puppeteer for a muppet was also the one doing it's voice
You'd think so but no.
Not in the case of the Muppets anyway
(or Sesame street for that matter.)
Some of them require 2 or more puppeteers
and some of the voice artists voice more than one character
(Frank Oz does Miss Piggy, Rolf & the Animal, for example.)
I used to love skiing when I had knees that worked properly.
Good call wearing purple socks
It's a bit like Bloods and Crips, but in England.
affalaffaa Blood and Crisps ? who the fuck eats that in England
Wham bar bitch! What a relaxed interview,thoroughly enjoyed.
Tsk. Foreskin is superior.
Ince and Brigstocke. You'll be interviewing Stuart Maconie at this rate.
You are incorrect. David Cross is next
I didn't say 'next' you daft plonker.
You could have him on twice in a row and share both episodes at the same time. Then you could interview Chris Evans or Christoph Waltz.
+Richard Herring Amy chance of Peter Baynham of Andrew Collings?
Because shelling fresh peas is not worth it.
37:14 someone in the audience clearly says 'Fffuck-off' in response to Marcus' 'Award winning show'
Peas look like snot.
38:20 Did you really, Richard? Weird to see that joke now, post CK... but funny!
The fact that the women are dancing suggests that this situation was consensual. But as it didn't happen that probably makes it OK too.
And *if' it did that hand was made of ham and therefore you weren't actually touching yourself. It'll be indecent handling of cured meats at worst... Thanks for these podasts, I've enjoyed them immensely :-)
Please please please ask Jim Jefferies Richard Herring
would be awsome but its not like theres a shortage of jefferies on podcasts out there. conversation wise i'de say he might be the funniest comdian. bill burr is the best comedian. check out kevin pollacks chat show with jefferies if you havnt already and obviously all of the opie and anthony radio shows he's on.
Watching from the desolate wasteland....
I moved to The Netherlands years ago, so I'm like a time traveller now. I visited England last week and it was 1973. Fuck did I get a good exchange rate for my Euro's. Thanks Boris and Farage. I'm thinking of buying a holiday home there next week with the change I just found down the back of my settee.
The first guest I went into liking and came out of really disliking, its usually very much the other way around. Interesting. Great podcast as ever, though.
Yea I was thinking the same
dodos are extinct partly due to being eaten, but also because they only laid one egg a year. not all of your audience have turned stupid.
Russia 0 Wales 3 - what a night!
The question isn't "why do we have frozen peas?" It's "why do all vegetables except peas taste horrible from frozen?"
Dunno these guys but shitballs make life real
'I've never done drugs..except cocaine'. You know- the second hardest drug there is... And you think that means no drugs?! Showbusiness is weird!
Where have you been? Coke has slipped way down the charts of hardest drugs there is. You must think its still the Eighties.
It used to be called nose cocaines
Why don't you interview Marc Maron, that would flip your worldview on it's head eh?
Also, Marcus is clearly wearing purple socks
When you get the chance of interviewing interesting people why do you talk about yourself so much?
because it´s a conversation and not an interview
Listening to a person talking purely about themselves for an hour and a half would be boring.
Would love to see Dan Tetsell on here.
Aside, I wouldn't.
