He is absolutely HILARIOUS! I especially like the pairing of him & Noel. A complete surrealist, and, a stone cold rationalist. They're like the Yin & Yang of comedy!
Mr Duke Silver yeah. I do find there is a sense of politics entering it now, but for a long time, the humour has felt more raw than American quiz, political comedy shows. Like, there was a time when they use to make jokes about Islam and racist jokes, and now its kind of filtering away. There use to be no barriers to any of it. Political Correctness is ruining everything
List of good band names: Electric mockersons The indoor kites Hot shame Live wasp & nightmares Lazer printer Erection damage MC hammers trousers Crying in the B&Q Cold water pressure Legally a cake
I wonder what Jimmy was thinking when Richard looked straight at him and out of nowhere mentioned "tax dodging." I imagine it was something like "Oh, shit. Does he know?"
Little Luna Well, in France we do have a saying that basically goes like "a laughing woman is half-way in your bed" so you're probably on the receiving hand of that feeling haha
Can't remember which season it's in, but there's an episode of The IT Crowd where he tries to pass for a manly man (learns football hooligan speak and stuff) and he uses that voice then too.
7:22 and onward is so good. And not just by Ayoade, either. The others seriously going along with it made it possible for Ayoade to keep the bit going.
See if you can dig up an old Never Mind The Buzzcocks that he hosted, he starts it off by telling everyone he refuses to stoop to the level of 'jokes', and proceeds to be the funniest person there for the duration nonetheless. s26e07 I think.
Sean Meehan He's also really good in "was it something I said" The first episode especially is brilliant, Jimmy Carr and David Ayoade on one team with David Mitchell as host, really can't go wrong
Best Ayoade moment for me was on "as yet untitled" when I think it was alan that said "who could possibly dislike Richard Ayoade" and the only person raising his hand was … Richard Ayoade :)
One of my favorite, underrated moments in this quiz Richard did was he was in a team with Gabby Logan and they did the question about what Susan Boyle had as a bad hashtag: # BeMoreRacist. Always kills me.
Noel and Richard completely fit their characters from the I.T Room. Noel is odd, yet compassionate, like Richmond. Richard is pedantic and logical, lacking real compassion like moss. (Btw: I'm talking about the personas that Richard and Noel use on these chat shows.)
Has anyone ever said on TV 'Why do you think it's weirder throwing a live wasp than a nightmare?' lmao 😂😂 BUT you know you're golden when NOEL is looking at YOU like WTF??? 😂
Can’t get enough of The Big Fat Quiz? 😂 SUBSCRIBE for all the newest clips ua-cam.com/users/TheBigFatQuizChannel
I love the fact that Richard usually has such a great poker face but a your mum jokes makes him burst into laughter
I'm delighted that that's his level of humour
Dona Deric so
That's because your mum jokes are, and forever will be hilarious
Or Bad Dong
@andrew chase She's dead.
it confuses me how complementary noel and richard are as a team next to one another, its strangely natural
H M I mean they're both sort of weirdo outsider characters.
They were also on it crowd together
Always Mad Dont forget The Mighty Boosh!
@@alwaysmad3016 I swear Richard was a wizard of weird on it crowd. One day I'll have to track him down and become his apprentice lol.
@@alwaysmad3016 I was gonna comment that too :-), He was so Awesome in the IT Crowd
Rich and Noel acting like school kids makes me lose it everytime
phoenixsplash135 was it your mum?
No seriously was it your mum?
your mum buys bargain garden furniture tho innit ?
She buys the cheap garden furniture as well.
she's gettin the real cheap shit as well
"Can you not get a plumber?"
"I can get a plumber, but I want a reliable one."
"Get a Welsh one."
"I live in London."
Jonah Drake I'm Welsh and I have no idea what she meant by that. Welsh plumbers are just as shit as every other plumber in every corner of Britain
@@A-small-amount-of-peas But they have a nice accent so they feel trustworthy
@@mrcaboosevg6089 ah yes the old regional accent seems more trustworthy theory
@@A-small-amount-of-peas Welsh is better than cockney, cockney just sounds like you're about to be ripped off
@@mrcaboosevg6089 Depends what type of Welsh. The accent changes by the county in Wales just like in England
i swear half of being a comedian is keeping a straight face.
how he didn't start laughing when talking about the water pressure is beyond me
Why would he laugh, it was a serious discussion.
I love how the mum joke broke him 😂
@@JamesForster1123 It's the only joke I've seen him crack for 😂
The trick is to not think you're funny. Then it's a game of who will laugh first :)
Half of it is the material, half of it is execution/the character
"Tax dodging"
*Jimmy Carr nervously laughs*
mc finn that joke was based on the fact that jimmy hadn’t paid tax, it wasn’t a coincidence
Ada Le r/wooosh
Ada Le we know mate
@@adaml5796
But no one knew then.
@@comediansactorsandall2502 yeah they do, 9:20
The water pressure discussion is legendary.
Right?? I've never been so delighted to watch someone take a panel show on such a mundane tangent. The man's got skills.
and noel's face made it even better
How he says “That might be the problem” is fucking hilarious
luedog4life 'a Welsh one! I live in London lol
I genuinely have this problem in my flat right now
"Best of Richard Ayoade", A.K.A Every time he opens his mouth
Richard Ayoade is a national icon. This isn't even debatable. He is a legend
International*
Depends who you ask. So it can be debated.
@@projekt1_FK gotta admit I can't stand him
@Ivan Clements Depends. For Richard Ayoade I might have to rethink that question.
Not a national icon. He's very funny but he's also part Norwegian or something for a start.
I love that bit about Jimmy's mom
because it is the closest you ever see Ayoade to cracking up
JackDManheim he cracks up when he jokes about some comedians DVD.. cant remember which year it was of bfq.
Watch it crowd bloopers. He fully cracks up and it’s glorious
Agreed! The IT Crowd bloopers will have you giggling with glee because he actually laughs!!
He was cracking up every time he is with Bob Mortimer.
He cracked up for Bad Dong
"Was it your mum? It was your mum, sir!"
jimmy carrs mum had died of cancer
Didn't his mother die in 2001? Big Fat Q of the Noughties was recorded in 2012?
every cloud...
@@missmabel that's why he's crying.
Though he knows it is a joke and is taking it likewise
His poker face is stone cold
Stone face killer
Even so, he still has an adorable smile 6:42 😍
Except "your mum" part :D
Corvid she was buying the real cheap shit!
Loved it when he broke character in the “I heard she killed him doing sex bit”
can we agree that Richard and noel are the best teaming ever?
It's them or Sean and Corden!
i prefer noel and russell, but i do understand this being a good team
Nah man. Russel just isn't funny.... at all... to me.
I'd vote either noel and Richard or Sean and corden.
Only one team could beat this one - Noel and Ju
He is absolutely HILARIOUS! I especially like the pairing of him & Noel. A complete surrealist, and, a stone cold rationalist. They're like the Yin & Yang of comedy!
Anon Nymous they are perfect together! Such a weird duo whose comedic stylings pair so well!
I love when he and David Mitchell are paired
classic stuff, the jokester and the straight man(not sexuality, comedic terminology)
I'd love to see him with brand, did that ever happen?
+Fari they paired up at least twice, the Goth Detectives was their team name once
Honestly Richard's immunity to Jimmy's insulting style gives them fantastic chemistry. It's like he reflects the shade back at him.
I love when Richard went on a whole monologue “praising” Jimmy for the knowingly bad jokes he makes.
"Can you make yourself legally a cake?" lol
A fairy cake
i was 1k like whoo
I mean, if you are what you eat, then could you theoretically eat enough cake to become one under the law?
We are all legally cake
Rise of The noodles a joke ahead of its time
"No seriously tho, was it your mum?"
The depressing bit is that his Mum died of Cancer.
JustA Midget I bet you're real fun at parties
@@justamidget4958 and it all started when she went to the B&Q and let out a cry
I love how Noel leans on him and Richard doesn’t tell him not to touch
Timestamp
Real mates only do that
"Why'd you take the water tank out?"
"Because I wanted to put a big Bean Bag there"
Gets me every time 😂
apangatang harris That
That might be the problem.
I NEVER understood that. Aren’t tanks usually attached to the wall?
Michaels laugh kills me at that bit too he was in stitches😂
That 'your mom' bit is the only time I've seen Ayoade break that unbreakable deadpan expression. Legend :)
Watch IT crowd bloopers. He breaks so much.
Gotta love british game shows, they just dont give a fuck, do they?
Mr Duke Silver yeah. I do find there is a sense of politics entering it now, but for a long time, the humour has felt more raw than American quiz, political comedy shows. Like, there was a time when they use to make jokes about Islam and racist jokes, and now its kind of filtering away.
There use to be no barriers to any of it. Political Correctness is ruining everything
Yeah, you tell 'em!
Damn PC brigade with their... manners and welcoming attitude towards different ways of life!
a lot of them are shit though, like have I got news for you and a question of sport.
rufio'smousse question of sport isn't really a comedy show, more of a quiz show with comedy elements
we just don't get offended like the Americans
Every time Noel says "she was getting the real cheap shit as well", I scream-laugh.
The Cold Water Pressure bit is so funny and my problem with it is that not a single American comedian can genuinely recreate that bit
6:31 "she was getting the real cheap shit as well" haha
Flying Piano that’s my favourite part
I would love to see a 10-hour compilation video of comedians taking to the piss out of Jimmy Carr for tax dodging.
5:57 holy shit. I don't think I've ever seen Richard show facial expressions like that! He even laughed! What is happening???
Takes some high brow comedy to break his deadpan demeanour.
I do believe this is the only time I've seen him break character. Did you notice his voice got a bit deeper as well? It's a little sexy.
He had to put his "bully" voice on.
Watch IT crowd bloopers. He properly cracks up.
He broke his public persona.
a lot of love for this man.
Lil Booki his comedy is sick Af
The show needs him so much, he saves so many jokes.
he sounds so depressed but when he speaks like everything couldn't be any funnier
depression and humor are deeply connected
List of good band names:
Electric mockersons
The indoor kites
Hot shame
Live wasp & nightmares
Lazer printer
Erection damage
MC hammers trousers
Crying in the B&Q
Cold water pressure
Legally a cake
Electric moccasins * like the shoe
I like blending Hot Shame: The Indoor Kites
Richard’s Nightmare: The Gunge Tank
The "your mum" part never gets old! 😂
The innocence in Richards voice when he said sexy time gets me every time 😂
I want Noel's donkey hat.
Giovanni Magnus I thought I was the only one!!
Such a lovely asshat
Me too
Richard and Noel are just the best pairing.
Yeah, when Noel's not in the show Richard just wins...and that's boring!
I wonder what Jimmy was thinking when Richard looked straight at him and out of nowhere mentioned "tax dodging." I imagine it was something like "Oh, shit. Does he know?"
I think that they all knew about it by then judging by the amount of jokes.
THE WATER PRESSURE BIT IS BRILLIANT
6:09 is an amazing piece of improv
Hamish Woodland I
I love that Alan is there too.
worst part is that Jimmy Carr mother is dead
that's one of the best parts of the vid. Richard and Noel are so funny together
That's what I was going to say! I was pretty sure she was dead by that time.
Richmond and Moss 5 years later
"Can you make yourself leagally a cake" I'm dead omg
i love how richard doesnt like being touched but when its noel hes okay with him being all up in his space
I think I might be a little bit in love with Richard Ayoade.......how has this happened?
What's not to love?!
Little Luna Well, in France we do have a saying that basically goes like "a laughing woman is half-way in your bed" so you're probably on the receiving hand of that feeling haha
Me too , he’s handsome , smart , funny and modest .
6:40- 6:53 his voice stopped being nasally and got really deep, it was kinda sexy XD
Nawal gosh, you're so right
Can't remember which season it's in, but there's an episode of The IT Crowd where he tries to pass for a manly man (learns football hooligan speak and stuff) and he uses that voice then too.
D frst time i saw d clip i thot it was someone else talkng cs hs voice went suddenly deep
He was being a ‘chav’ kid (naughty school kid) they kinda talk like that.
It was VERY sexy 😄
“Satsuma, live wasp and nightmares”
How do you think up something that brilliant 😭
7:22 and onward is so good. And not just by Ayoade, either. The others seriously going along with it made it possible for Ayoade to keep the bit going.
Rich and Noel are the perfect combination
Richard and Noel are the dream team
noel and richard have the same brain but different delivery and it kills me
richard is just brilliant and how he goes off on Lee 😂
Why do you think it’s weirder throwing a wasp than a nightmare? - died 😹
"RICHARD AND NOEL, WHAT HAVE YOU PUT AS YOUR ANSWER!?"
"...Your Mum :D"
The chemistry between Noel and Richard is brilliant !
Anyone else wait for the malteser outburst that never came?
It's funny that someone with his style and reputation finally can't keep himself from giggleing and it is all because of a your mum joke.
1SapereAude1 It's always the really stupid jokes that make comedians laugh.
I was waiting for the "funny nazi"-bit.
I got a malteser advert before the video
“It’s very hard for me to climb down from this energy!”
I love how at 7:44 Noel is just sat there with that look of "I have no idea either..."
"Why do you think it's more difficult to throw a wasp than a nightmare?"
😂😂😂😂
I can not get enough of Richard and Noel. The best combo EVER on this show.
"That's why I ceiling mount my tv" Lol
8:58 the producers must have been screaming in his ear lol
Richard and Noel ❤
Heather Thomas a
His straight face with every answer makes me laugh so hard
I love his deadpan expressions but I also like that his character is lessening in recent years. He smiles and laughs much more now :))
Absolutely hilarious, I just want to see more of these now! Loved him in the IT crowd, I had no idea he was so good at improv though!
See if you can dig up an old Never Mind The Buzzcocks that he hosted, he starts it off by telling everyone he refuses to stoop to the level of 'jokes', and proceeds to be the funniest person there for the duration nonetheless. s26e07 I think.
Sean Meehan
He's also really good in "was it something I said"
The first episode especially is brilliant, Jimmy Carr and David Ayoade on one team with David Mitchell as host, really can't go wrong
Jesus is that the one where he said Jimmy looked like Roger Federer?
Sean Meehan Try 'Man to Man with Dean Lerner' or 'Garth Marenghi's Darkplace'. Both made before The IT crowd and he's hilarious in both
watching these has made me like Jonathan Ross more I used to think he was self centered but on these he's pretty cool has a good sense of humour
i love it when Jack Whitehall gives him digs about the quality of his show
7:45 Noels face!
Richards undoubted skill at going off on a tangent reaches new levels with this bit of improv!
Very funny pair.
I love the fact that a your mum joke cracked him when he's usually so contained 😂
I am a simple person. I see Richard Ayoade, I click!
I just learnt that Richard Ayoade's middle name is Ellef, which according to Google, means wish of everyone, very fitting for an Awesome human 🙂
Richard and Noel are great together. Richard is a treasure
Satsuma, live wasp and nightmares... Blimey, I wouldn't like to get into a fight with him...!
ngl everything that comes out of his mouth should be in this video
anyone wanna start a band either:
* Indoor kites
* Hot Shame
* Electric moccasins
* Robbins and Jerome
the choice is your's
This is an extraneous detail, but I love that laugh at 1:48, just before the cut to Nicole Scherzinger.
At that 'Your mum' part it would have been absolutely golden if they'd written 'Your mum' on Jimmy's card before the show. XD
Forever the best moment in comedy history, Richard Ayoade talking about his plumbing problem 😂😂 Kills me every time!
Richard ayoade is so brilliant! I only watch this show for his hilarious highlights
That Jimmy Carr cake joke was just priceless.
Best Ayoade moment for me was on "as yet untitled" when I think it was alan that said "who could possibly dislike Richard Ayoade" and the only person raising his hand was … Richard Ayoade :)
I think Jimmy sometimes definitely feels like a teacher in school.
Richard was ahead of his time with 9:23
One of my favorite, underrated moments in this quiz Richard did was he was in a team with Gabby Logan and they did the question about what Susan Boyle had as a bad hashtag: # BeMoreRacist. Always kills me.
Noel and Richard are the best duo ever
6:41 that smile gets me every time! x'D
“Yes 6:00 to 6:15, we just put an egg timer out” literally can’t stop laughing 😂
Noel and Richard get along better with each other than I get along with myself.
@7:43 Even Noel Fielding thinks it's a weird joke!
That whole “your mom” bit is the greatest thing ever in tv and I quote it often
I just love Richard.
Richard is a national treasure.
KingEdwards totally agree
5.48 Was It Your Mum is legendary
I watched this video several times but it still never fails to make laugh
Whenever Richard is on camera, he has major poker face on. But when Jimmy's mum is the answer, his stone look cracks. 🤣
Always think Richard and Noel are a weird pairing until I remember they worked together on IT crowd
They worked together before that on the Mighty Boosh. They were part of the same comedy troupe.
Noel and Richard completely fit their characters from the I.T Room. Noel is odd, yet compassionate, like Richmond. Richard is pedantic and logical, lacking real compassion like moss.
(Btw: I'm talking about the personas that Richard and Noel use on these chat shows.)
In fairness to Noel and Richard, there is a Hackney horse. 😂
Richard + Noel = Best Team
I like the fact that Jimmy Carrs idea of a rough school is being heckled by Richard Ayoade and Noel Fielding
Has anyone ever said on TV 'Why do you think it's weirder throwing a live wasp than a nightmare?' lmao 😂😂 BUT you know you're golden when NOEL is looking at YOU like WTF??? 😂
How I wish I could be a fly on the wall in Bob's life 7:08
The “your mum” one makes me cry laughing every time
What's amazing is how he manages to give the façade of being smart while getting the answer wrong all the time.
Richard is so brilliant. Just an amazingly talented person.
Richard should be the next doctor, with Noel as his companion
