Actually you can see Jimmy Carr breaking into a laugh on the shot where it shows both of them (after Ayoade says "Why am I playing tennis?"). You can't really see it on this video cos poor quality. In real life they'll have taken a moment to let Carr compose himself and look unamused again, and edited it to look seamless.

Jimmy Carr's facial expression: I can't believe you just used my joke from my shows. In case many of you haven't seen it, Carr on many occasions has started his show saying "I know what you're thinking, A Downsyndrome Roger Federer?" For those of you who think Richard Ayoade 'owned' him. No, just no. And that's coming from a guy who's more fond of Richard than Jim.

[@a.bstractly]

It's great because of "all I'm thinking is 'why am I playin tennis'" rly. Not just the Deseret thing. And perhaps Jimmy did mention the resemblance between him and federer but Richard's timing and just the absurdity of the moment makes this great.
