Hitchhiking... in a limo? 😂 | The Graham Norton Show - BBC

[@AR-oc2cl]

That "I had a little chuckle to myself. 'Oh what am I like?'" has me in TEARS 😂😂

[@Falling2311]

Is there any chance you can explain that phrase? I've heard it a lot but I'm American and don't understand what it means - probably b/c I've never heard it finished so I can know what they keep implying with it.

[@LJV3NOM]

Courtney Buras he’s basically making fun of himself subtly. A person could see someone acting stupidly in the street and say to a friend “what are they like” meaning “what are they doing” so he’s basically saying “what am I doing I’m being silly” (for sticking his thumb out like a hitch hiker to a limo when clearly they wouldn’t stop for him normally)

[@vali4097]

Courtney Buras the whole saying is “what am i like” lol and it’s sort of a way to laugh at yourself if you do sth stupid

[@vali4097]

Juliana Silva he’s making fun of himself

[@filipzawistowski4390]

@Juliana Silva It's just a quick way of saying "God I'm so weird/crazy/random/whacky"

His delivery is hilarious. The way he says 'of sorts, yeah' made me laugh. Should definitely consider doing something in the comedy business haha

the tone of his voice makes the story more listenable if that makes snese lol

I think he works in an office

[@NiVi192]

The story itself may not be the very greatest I've ever heard, but true, there haven't been many good storytellers like him on the show. Most people just don't know how to effectively sell their stories (or themselves), regardless of the punchline. So thumbs up for James, the limo guy!! 😄

[@klatewilson5170]

I thought he was going to end it by him finallymeeting his cousin and his cousin being gobsmacked at him get out of a stretch limo

[@NiVi192]

+Klate Wilson Good one, dear!!😀👍😉

[@dlh7989]

That's how you know he's a good storyteller, it's honestly a pretty lame story just in terms of what actually happened and there's no ending, but his delivery turned it into one of the best!

[@Jennyfisch]

@@dlh7989 Some of the best stories in the chair are usually pretty boring when you look at them too closely, but the people just sell it.

[@2angies19]

hahaha "Don't worry, I'm not a rapist"! hahaha

[@eddyk3]

"does this story have a happy ending James?" "of sorts yeah" Absolutely perfect response. James is who he all wish we were in these situations, cool AF.

[@NexSicarius]

He reminds me of Chris O'Dowd for some reason; really goofy and similar build.

[@thegroovetube3247]

He's like a funny version of Chris O'Dowd

[@rosswinder4068]

"I do a load of photocopying" is a brilliantly honest answer to any question, it's funny and I have no idea why 🤣🤣🤣

[@maldova]

I would not have understood this line without captions

"Why are we clapping?" 😂😂😂 Asking the real questions.

He seems like a really nice and funny guy haha I like his smile at 0:19 xD

I clicked on that timestamp only to see the smile, but I ended up watching the whole video again 😂

What's not to love about James, his looks..personality..story telling. Hes got the whole package 🤣🥰

[@t.least.he.is.honest]

One of the funniest guys in the chair

[@UkeRebuke]

Guy should pursue stand up, you can immediately see how much charisma he has especially compared to most others in the chair.

[@jeffreyyelverton5567]

One of the most well told Red Chair stories ever.

[@timisolo]

This guy is such a good story teller he really took you with him during the whole thing

[@dlh7989]

And it's not even the greatest story, really, it's a funny situation but nothing really happened, but the way he tells it just makes it so brilliant.

[@JebsonCreates]

Check him out on Twitter: @JamesSmartIII 'Smarty' is one of my best mates and was an usher at my wedding - he is like this ALL the time and one of the funniest guys I've ever met. MAKE JAMES FAMOUS!!!

[@Soph149]

James Jebson #makeJamesFamous! I’m with you

[@youtubaholic]

He doesn't do much on Twitter! Followed him though. He really should consider something in comedy, he has a natural talent for it. CLEARLY.

[@amaberc27]

Give us an update on James please!!!

[@clarebell5926]

I think he's pretty gorgeous, and his story is very good! I love it when he says how he'd think it was hilarious if he was in a limo and someone thumbed him down!! lol We all need a friend like this to make us laugh!!

[@heyheyhey6006]

2:30 that was supposed to be the end of this story. but then graham's questiom triggered an another witty response.

[@ST1212100]

Is photocopying a slang for something? Also, he reminds me of Armie Hammer!! Anyone else? ;)

[@glebeboi]

They said it refers to being out of work - hence having to photocopy your resumes all the time for each new job application.

[@TheCasualObservers]

glebeboi No, it's just a way of referring to a monotonous job (I'm presuming he works as a admin assistant). It's funny simply because it's both a bizarre way of responding to the question and because his delivery was so deadpan.
