Thanks ViVaHD. My favorite host.

[@jonathaneffemey4892]

Thanks for posting.

The writers and Jo were on fire this week! Awesome savage cuts to Gwyneth Paltrow :-) And Pierce Morgan deserved every bit of that!

[@bobburroughs6241]

Yes, Morgan should be pierced.

Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot my login password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.

15:55 - Paul Merton's 'Miserable Bastard' moment. Following in good ol' Spike Milligan's footsteps

[@Kowasi]

Ian and Grace did a lot better score-wise in the uncut version of the show. 6-7 rather than 2-7! With a bit more footage, they might even have won!

[@eddierutherford4186]

My son's mother worked with kids with autism, low intellectual abilities, etc. When the kids were overwhelmed and started acting out and being disruptive they had a special room they'd put them in called "The Snoozzling Room" which had soft lighting, calming music, non-threatening objects with which to interact, etc. When the "Tranquility Room" was mentioned, "The Snoozling Room" immediately popped into my mind.

[@suzandemir4958]

Love all the Jo Brand episodes. But still miss Angus Deeton

Kiri Pritchard wins the "Most Gleeful Guest" award. I approve.

I watched the whole episode, then looked down at the comments. Seconds later, I can't even recall Kiri's laugh. I don't get the hate. Do people just have a personal issue with her or something?

[@AllIsWellaus]

I'm sure it's hate but I scrolled down to see if anyone commented on her over the top laugh.

[@kogotokLenok]

I see her for the first time, but I'll remember her laugh forever

"He's got just enough white bits not to be shot on sight." Goodness me, Jo Brand!

@@Malegysyou just hate her. All hosts contribute material.

[@Malegys]

@@Kate-lk6tw nah, don't hate her. Just VERY unfunny & one-dimensional in her output, which surprises me at how popular she got. Like Rob Brydon, Michael McIntyre etc.

[@DanGolag]

Paul was on form in this episode. So quick.

[@JohannesVanDerStuyvebode]

He was too eager to be funny, I stopped listening after a few minutes because of his nonsensical jokes.

[@patharasown]

Wonder if the people who have a problem with Kiri's laugh have the same opinion about Jimmy Carr's. Just asking. Though I will say...Grace Dent has the typical martyred expression that vegans generally seem to carry.

[@louieberg2942]

Funny how the start of your comment seems to express a desire to combat a certain brand of generalisation, while the second part carries on in a different direction for yet another brand of generalisations.

[@mikeyb8040]

I posted pretty much the same thing just now, but without the Jimmy part.

Kiri has an annoying laugh but the main trouble is she has nothing amusing or interesting to add.

She has the most annoying laughter, not only does it sound forced and fake but it is just too loud and you can the annoyance on the other guests face.

@Mike Beglin I assume American and obnoxious are synonymous in this comment

It’s 2024.

[@beth12svist]

​​@@Kate-lk6tw It was a couple years earlier than that. But Agatha Christie wrote about hat pins no longer being a thing in the 1920s, so the idea that people should know about them is certainly a bit behind the times.

Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."

What an annoying laugh Kiri ruined the program

[@jackhughes2832]

The most optomistic comment I've ever heard was Jo Brand from the stage to me while clearing glasses " I bet he's a virgin , isn't he lovely , I'll have him first. ". My responses yes but I'm not that desperate

The offer would never apply to you.

[@45green1]

Kiri's laugh exceeds the volume level by a bit, if she knew the effect I think she'd turn it down slightly, no disrespect Kiri

[@RIXRADvidz]

Grace IS so Prim and Proper, she's a perfect foil for the rest of the panel, they're all relaxed and enjoying their time together, she's horrified she's on the same stage with that braying farmer's daughter and that slag heap hosting. I love her. she's so very Up Herself. always amusing.
