James Acaster Baffled By Lara Ricote's Lip Reading Challenge | Question Team | Dave

[@ceostudio]

Lara is like the quirky babysitter in every 90’s movie/show and I love it

[@themoolag]

holy shit you're right lol

[@CodyErekson1]

I hope to see Lara on Taskmaster!

Little Alex could come up with some great tasks for them with her there!

Couldn't agree more

[@TheAstronomyFloyd]

Would’ve preferred her over Rosie, nothing against Rosie I just don’t find her funny 🙃 just saw Lara on Battle in the Box tonight and she was great

[@alyburr6645]

they were all significantly better at that than me lol

[@Some1ne]

I can't believe how awful I am at lip-reading: 1. "Misery" 2. "Sipo Snapple" 3. "The gulags" 4. "Shell pools" 5. "She can dance"

I only got sorry. Prolly cause its ingrained in me since i was wee high. 🤣

[@marceloarmando2257]

I doubt Margaret Thatcher shared her snacks. If you didn't have yours, well then… that's life!

[@rachelcookie321]

What I’ve learnt from this is I’m terrible at lip reading and hopefully my already bad hearing doesn’t get any worse. The first one looked like he was saying “chovvy” and I couldn’t work out for the life of me what word that was supposed to be.

[@mytube001]

I thought the farmer said "snogging". It went downhill from there...

I love Lara Ricotte, so funny in English and Spanish 😂😂😂

I dont think shes funny in spanish, ngl. Might be cause I dont speak spanish but eh, whatever. 🤷‍♂️

Loved this re-imagining of Peep Show!. For "Stonehenge" I got "So Handsome" so I was close .

I looove her voice..soo cute!!!

[@isabellaangeline2175]

She’s very adorable.

[@oliviadaly4795]

She's adorable. Don't know why, but her voice reminds me of Abby off Sesame St

[@fifinoir]

I didn’t get the first two ‘easy’ ones but I got Stonehenge and the poor one lol

[@JaimeNyx15]

Can’t believe I got “Stonehenge” right. I thought I had to be wrong because it was such a nonsense answer.

[@millerhxc]

Same.

[@clarewillison9379]

That “smoked salmon” woman has never had a crumpet in her life.

[@ditamoth]

I weirdly also guessed she said chequered balls!

[@matleeena]

I got "she ate poo" D: although I guess it wasn't that far

[@Ivy3h]

I guessed "she had balls" lmao

[@tentardigrades968]

I thought for sure he said “she’s dead” too 😆

[@sofiaguerrero0969]

it’s so weird seeing Lara on here. I used to follow her and her friends back in 2015 when she wasn’t famous and when she was in high school and she’s a full Miami Latina that definitely does not speak like this lol

[@caaliin]

it's quite normal for someone who's grown up in two different countries to develop less accented English as they grown older, even in their twenties. And it's even more normal for someone born in a non-English speaking country, like Lara. Literally speak to any immigrant who moved as a kid.

[@sofiaguerrero0969]

@@caaliinI’m an immigrant who moved here as a kid. I still follow her other friend on instagram since she’s an influencer and she speaks exactly the same. Like I said, it’s weird but i get it’s her carefully crafted comedic persona now. And it’s not the accent. It’s the lisp and the intonation and everything. So yes it is fake.

[@isabellaangeline2175]

Sarah Silverman if she had attended Gallaudet Uni

Lara is so much funnier than these folks, damn

[@ryanjenkyns]

That canned laughter is so cringe, especially as there's and actual audience there not laughing

[@IanJones942]

As an American I've only known about Lara for less than a week, and I can't wait to see more of her on my TV. ...HEY, not like THAT! >.>

[@Disposalist]

Lol. I actually got the Stonehenge one!

Who were those other people? Lara is awesome!

RIP comedy..

[@theherk]

She sounds very much like Andrea Botez.

[@repetethemayhem6889]

Too easy

[@JodyHwd]

WOW the canned laughter on this program must have been really cheap. It's terrible !!

[@paulelroy6650]

you mean the laughing from the audience

[@mrquirky3626]

They do use a studio audience but you're right, it does at times sound like an old school laugh track compared to other UK panel shows.

[@RenaissanceEarCandy]

Canned laughter is extremely rare in British shows, chiefly because it's not needed.

[@kevinw712]

forgive me but there still seem to be many people on youtube who don't seem to understand this. literally every show that has a live studio audience has to "alter" the laughter in post-production to some degree. Panel shows shoot for a good 2-3 hours and that has to be cut down to anywhere from like 28 to 44 minutes. What you're hearing is taken from genuine, earned laughter by the audience, but between the varied shots, the whole thing has to be edited so tightly, they need to blend the laughter together so the pitch doesn't change wildly between camera angles.

why do they have to shoe horn politics into everything

[@bozkatinator]

Well, it's comedy and margaret thatcher being dead is pretty funny

[@RenaissanceEarCandy]

If it triggers you you're not obliged to watch.

[@RubyDoobieScoo]

Look I get that she shared her snacks with you but you gotta get over it.

[@daniellamcgee4251]

Because politics is a shared experience and most people know the references, so politics provides good subject matter for comedy for a broad population.

[@pineapples8503]

if you don't want to see right wingers being made fun of you should probably stay away from comedy in general lol
