The Sketch Show - Lee Mack As A Jockey

[@richardbelton919]

I watch this clip every few months, and I cracks me up every time. Credit to them both - the timing is brilliant.....albeit a little too fast in places 🤣🤣

[@hafstrat]

Lee mark is vastly underrated. The funniest guy on the planet for me. Blooming hilarious. Would love to meet him.

[@Everestino]

Yes! Agreed! There are so many arena comedian these days. Quick wit versus ghostwriters. I say quick wit win!

[@TonesAtTinwell]

Lee Mack

[@familyman831]

Same

[@mclarenrob2]

these days he will just bang on about the fact he's vegan

[@mattcorcoran7082]

Lee Mark 😂

[@colinmennie6447]

I’ve just discovered this and I’m in tears 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@shanalouigie9905]

Years later this is still one of my favourite Lee Mack moments

[@regreid3956]

I’m Irish and a huge fan of Lee Mack.the accent is brilliant This is probably my favourite comedy sketch ever I could watch this once a day and laugh every time 😂😂😂

[@Drum8888]

Aw jeeze I'll tell you as well, I'm delighted as well, but do you know the win isn't just for me it's for the trainer and the boys in the yard because it's a very hard course, knowing its bad after a quarter of a lap. You know when he jumped the last I thought 'there's no way this fella is going to make it' but I gave him a slap with the reign during the whole way home and I'll tell you when he goes to 8th off the south end you're doing very very well. I tell you I'm absolutely delighted. Not 100% but close enough. Source: Irish; and this actually makes Lee Mack's impression here even better because it wasn't just random Irish sounding noises he clearly practiced speaking the words quickly in that dialect, he's brilliant.

[@tonberrykinged]

Impressive! I'm sad enough to have played it at half speed and you're about right apart from at the end. He says: 'I'll tell you what when he goes to Aintree on the soft ground he'll do very very well...' Like you say, it's genius that he was genuinely speaking words and not gobbledygook.

[@hschan5976]

Whereabouts in Ireland can i find people that talk like that? All the irish people i know sound like Chris O'Dowd in IT crowd

[@wallaroo6510]

Bravo!

[@gamerdareswins2825]

Lee macks a fucking genius!. His wit and timing are exact!. Americans will never touch this quality of humour.

[@johnp4008]

Perhaps not but I can still find this very funny. And relatable. 🇺🇲

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

@@johnp4008 Lol definitely not. Amy schumer is the best you yanks can do now 🤣

[@specdel]

Let’s not forget the huge contribution to this from Ronni Ancona, must have very hard to get the timing right not to mention remembering it all!

[@joeritchie7286]

Ronni was an angel fallen from the heavens , a truly beautiful woman

[@Matt-cz6ti]

“Was?” She’s still alive

[@ossian11]

Brilliant. Lee Mack is one of the very few English people who can actually do an Irish accent.

[@mythofechelon]

I'm listening to his autobiography (how I got here) and I think it's because he worked with Irish guys in a stable, and I think his wife is Irish or something.

[@hschan5976]

What kinda irish accent is this? I've worked with people from Dublin and they all sounded like Chris O'Dowd in IT Crowd. I've also heard Irishmen talking to each other in what i thought was really bad accent but it later turned out they were speaking Gaelic the whole time.

[@CJ-ft9yo]

Not bad as in Would I lie … he’s not known for mimicking accents

[@martinpoole1034]

One of the best sketches Ive ever seen, truly can't stop laughing...😂

[@the_katman2181]

Jesus, I'm crying real tears here.

[@nigeldavies5903]

[@taffyjones3784]

[@elainebenes3068]

Charlie Baker talking to Lee Mack at Cheltenham, had to come and have another look 😂😂😂

[@Muswell]

Brilliant.

[@scottwaite1960]

Reading the Transcript section below the video is just as hilarious ! The interviewer must have been the person interpreting it !

[@ste_zace]

this show was underrated

[@biblybims9868]

Easily one of the most funniest British comedians of all time,and one thing Britain has is shithot comedians

[@3XLDave]

There's nothing better than the ol' "we're speaking the same language yet I can't understand a word you're saying" gag

[@oddjobtriumph1635]

Don't let the snowflakes watch this ...they will go into Meltdown Lee Mack is a comedy Legend

[@MythicSuns]

should've ended with the Jockey saying "nope, I didn't catch a word of that!" and the reporter storming off

[@HIBERNIAN04]

Brilliant

[@metalhead666118]

So bloody funny 😂

[@mishunaccomeplished]

Excellently Funny

[@AMFL3116]

There's no need to swear! You heard that alright!

[@my_beer_stories]

Lee Mack has, famously, of course, ridden Red Rum, so he had plenty of training for this role.

[@Frances-m1q3i]

Very funny

[@garethhook9972]

[@JJONNYREPP]

The Sketch Show - Lee Mack As A Jockey 0624am 17.1.24 yes. amusing.

[@bopmathews]

I wonder how many Irish people understood what he said the first time

[@regreid3956]

To be fair.i did get it first time round.I’m Irish and I love this sketch.Lee Mack actually comes from an Irish background.his grandfather was from Mayo I believe.absolutely great sketch.especially when he said ‘I thought this fella will never make it up the hill ‘ priceless 😂😂😂

Ronnie Ancona is a very funny lady as is of Course Lee Mack

[@davidmildenhall5326]

[@djpotnoodle2013]

[@aliceabraham9344]

😂

[@seanmcnally8390]

I love Lee Mack but that is so racist!

[@MythicSuns]

I know! the way they make english speaking reporters look so clueless, it's such an outdated stereotype!

[@ravon1982]

Don't be soft ffs

[@smashyrashy]

Its not at all

[@mclarenrob2]

It's not racist, it's an affectionate joke about the way Irish Jockeys speak.

[@warrenbrown8998]

Brilliant
