Karl Pilkington outsmarts Ricky Gervais and goes mental

[@GeoffreyBronson]

The best part is that Steve got on Karl's side and triumphantly called it despite their history of having a go at eachother

[@Christoff070]

That's cause Steve is f*cking mean 🤣

[@peternichols7876]

This was a long time before Steve and Karl started having a go at each other. This was nearly 20 years ago.

[@fhornet3123]

Steve supported Karl a lot in the early days. Steve originally defended the early version of Rockbusters while Ricky shit on it right away.

[@whoopigoldberg9956]

Karl followed the money

[@user-om9hc5jg7v]

Every stupid reply here... they didnt start having a go at each other, they had banter, it was on a radio show 😅 they were always great mates

Steve: “Karl, HAS WON!” Karl: “YAAHAAHAHA!!”

Ricky says Karl “went a little bit mental” but all he did was laugh in the same way Ricky does every 10 seconds

aww, the old xfm radio show is (for me) by far the greatest listen. When you hear all the stories for the first time and you are also witnessing great friendships develop.

Lmao Ricky you don’t get to keep interrogating the riddler until he gives you enough information to solve the riddle.

this is basically the great climax of the whole show, for me. this is the real 2nd christmas special of the XFM shows.

I don't know what's more amazing in this clip; the fact Steve actually sided with Karl or Ricky being stunned in disbelief that he was wrong and only making a sound by laughing as Karl started to celebrate.

[@barryoffeastenders]

My favourite moment of any xfm episode. The music kicking in at the end is perfect too

[@theblackheart5727]

They’re all mates but I think I can hear a “sore loser” in Ricky’s voice at one point. It’s probably all just joking around but I think it’s really there.

[@FunnyCallsPrank]

The falling wall scene in the movie to the inevitable replies i'm likely to get, Germans behind the wall & Tom and his boys behind the other wall, ironically because of a helmet placement in the scene, our helmets were shockingly bad in ww2 they looked like they were again ironically there to protect our grandfathers from falling bricks ^o^ . Our modern helmets are still based on the German ww2 helmets, of! why are they wearing those dumb flat helmets we aint firing bricks at em
