HIGNFY S22E06 Omid Djalili & Clement Freud

[@k.a.u.4599]

When I was bout 6 or 7 I had the idea for a crank-handle spinning spaghetti fork, and a few years later the electronic rotating spaghetti fork started appearing in shops, and I got one! I was a bit annoyed that someone else had made it before I did, but now that all these years later I know it's bird-feeder-hat-guy, I feel no more animosity. We must be kindred spirits. Bubble wrap suit. incredible

Thanks so much for posting.

I think someone should mention this: Sir Clement Raphael Freud (24 April 1924 - 15 April 2009) was a British broadcaster, writer, politician and chef. The grandson of Sigmund Freud and brother of Lucian Freud, he moved to the United Kingdom from Germany as a child and later worked as a prominent chef and food writer before becoming known to a wider audience as a television and radio personality. He was elected as a Liberal Member of Parliament in 1973, retaining his seat until 1987, when he received a knighthood. In 2016, seven years after he died, three women made public allegations of child sexual abuse and rape by Freud, which led to police investigations.

[@AllIsWellaus]

Yeah I read that as well. I'm blown away really.

[@T3t4nu5]

What did the police investigations turn up?

[@653j521]

Clement had family members in the public eye, too.

[@pamelacass9642]

3 years after he died. Really?

[@granthurlburt4062]

He was an extraordinary good and devious player in Just A Minute. Very droll sense of dry humor

[@ferraridinoman]

Great stuff! x

[@creepycraig73]

Now I know the sign language for pee soup.

[@thisravenhasflown010]

This has to be the strangest episode I've seen yet🤣🤣🤣

[@blaisemarcc1648]

Good to see BASK

[@jestermoon]

Take A Moment Let the fun begin. Keep laughing Keep Talking Stay Safe Stay Free 🌐

[@Smudgie]

Clem the gem.

[@rsat477]

Wow, did he make that joke about the guy flying the plane 2 months after 9/11? Was that scandalous at the time or no big deal? It is funny though

[@RIXRADvidz]

oh, THAT Royal Variety Show...That One. and signing for the deaf. I do believe this is the only one I've ever seen. good on 'em.

[@653j521]

This is the second one I've seen with signing. That man is as much fun to watch as the show.

[@WibblyPigNZ]

Rather like the episode with Jimmy Saville, this is very hard to watch, knowing what we now know. It rather ruins Just a Minute too...

[@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S.]

True, but it's also worth pointing out that the Jimmy Sovile episode was hard to watch even before we all knew he was a monster. He was just fucking off-putting. EDIT: I accidentally described Sovile as "a man" and instantly regretted it.

[@TheJunMan]

@@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S. Wow, I had no idea.

[@granthurlburt4062]

Accusations and overwhelming proof are two different things

[@slobodanreka1088]

12:23 -- so THAT'S sign language for 'Nazi'.

[@TankR]

Its very straight forward

[@blaisemarcc1648]

BSL

[@dpf2122]

Djalili hardly said anything

[@RIXRADvidz]

Chupacabra, is what I think they're calling a 'Vampire Kangaroo', but I must admit, it does sound a lot more intriguing, a vampire kangaroo. venomous koalas, bloodthirsty wombats, dive bombing wallabies ...

[@Jeff121456]

Yes, chupacabra means goat sucker.

[@davkrod]

Don't forget Drop Bears.

[@granthurlburt4062]

I believe it is a monster known in Mexico and the U.S. southwest
