Honestly can't wait for you both to meet Mr Morris in season 2. And Jim is a much better character from season 2 onwards

[@mattierenton701]

PUNK ROCKERS ALL OF THEM !!! But Mark Heaps development of Jim through the series is an utter delight, the voice changes ever so subtly and the Gibby thing damn near ended me !!

[@Forestgravy90]

bloody punk rockers

[@YorkshireTripper.]

Don't know what i did but i hear it wasn't appreciated

[@LuckyDucky917]

"You filthy slanderer!"

[@AlphaGamer1981]

Fuck yeah Mr Morris owns this show

[@michaelryle8516]

Paul Ritter who played the dad was a great actor RIP 😢

[@david83ryan]

Brilliant in Chernobyl

[@micheletrainor1601]

​​@@david83ryanso good in Chernobyl he was completely unrecognisable as that character. Just an amazing actor so talented.

[@davidmee1822]

One of the most underrated moments of FND when Jim says ‘Something smells…’ and doesn’t finish by saying nice, don’t know why but it cracks me up.

[@goose300183]

Another great one for me is when they are in the pub and he says "pubs................the pub"

[@mattierenton701]

"it really is potatoes and some meat" "should meat squeak?" absolutely brilliant delivery of those lines. BTW you two are THE most adorable couple on KZbin

[@matthewhenery4834]

Bob Mortimer’s car meat 😂😂😂 🎉🎉 boop!😢

@@williamwilkes9873 ?? what does that mean, I dont recall that line in the show ??

[@davidz3879]

Unfortunately, Sheila is a one-off character. It'd have been funny to see her encounter Martin & Jackie again.

[@cynthiaschultheis1660]

Bad lady was on IT CROWD as Moss' therapist...funny!!!

[@jamesdawson2393]

"should a meat squeak" Couldn't stop laughing when I first heard that line lol the delivery and the silence in the room is brilliant, even Tamsin was trying to hold in her laughter.

[@XENONEOMORPH1979]

you missed the end ya nob lol.

[@watchreadplayretro]

That "Howdy!" and that "yeee-eeh!" woke me up from my grandpa nap! Might as well stay and watch the rest of this now! :D

[@darrenfearon4288]

Not only is the shows's funny I like the banter between kIng Boomer and Queen Boomer. Ithe dynamics between you two, make a great couple.

[@barriehull7076]

Roger Moore lived just up the road from me once, but Sean (lived in the USA but still wanted to break from the UK) Connery is my favourite "Bond, Basildon Bond", Russ Abbot. Russ Abbot's Madhouse and The Russ Abbot Show showcased his talents as an all-round entertainer, attracting millions of viewers. This show was top-rated among younger viewers, prompting two annuals to be published in 1982-83. These annuals featured comic strips based on popular characters, plus some publicity photos of Abbot in a variety of guises, including his well-known James Bond satire featuring characters named Basildon Bond and Miss Funnyfanny (based on the fictional MI6 spy duo James Bond and Miss Moneypenny). He was also in The Last of the Summer Wine. Last of the Summer Wine is a British sitcom created and written by Roy Clarke and originally broadcast by the BBC from 1973 to 2010. Clarke was the sole writer.

[@RickyRyan718]

Hey king boomer do you know queen boomer is every mothers dream for their sons🤣 she’s a delightful lady, your a lucky chap🤙🇬🇧

[@pedser5746]

I think we need an episode every Friday! This is my favourite series after Inbetweeners!

[@RenaissanceEarCandy]

Excellent but why did you cut it off before the end?

[@LuckyDucky917]

LOVE Friday Night Dinner! Some great episodes coming up!! I can't remember which season - but the Christmas special makes me tear up!!!

[@maxthecat14]

The xmas episode where Jim sings? It was magic wasn't it.

[@Twangabilly]

That party whistle noise you made at 8:52 is IDENTICAL to the noise used between each line in the verses of ‘Who Do You Think You Are’ by the Spice Girls. Same pitch and everything. I’m not sure why my brain noticed that.

[@samanthalloyd85]

The actor who plays Jim , he appears in later episodes of benidorm, he's also weird in that

[@caiotefu9856]

Yup... On the relationship advice! Although, try telling that to a pissed up bird though.

[@cynthiaschultheis1660]

FOR THE DOG....THERES AN OIL FOR DOGS WHO KEEP CHEWING ONE SPOT...IT HAS A TINY BIT OF KEROSENE THAT PREVENTS DOG FROM CHEWING!!!👍👍👍👍

[@donnyrover1]

If you think jim ( mark heap) is a bit odd in this , you have to watch Green Wing , out on its own in in comedy weirdness , a hospital chock full of very strange characters , heap plays dr statham , it may take some getting used too , but absolutely hilarious and very dark.

[@martinweir5983]

Uhhh.....you two love birds....lol... keep up the fun!

[@charlesfrancis6894]

I have always loved the American Southern accent.

I've been recommending FND to people since 2011. When it became popular in 2018, many people started recommending it to me as though they'd never heard of it before. I replied that I've been talking about it to them for seven years!

[@brianm2881]

Ha, that's funny. Speaking of funny, have you seen Friday Night Dinner yet? I just discovered it.

[@davidz3879]

@@brianm2881 Since 2018, I've heard loads of people ask how they've not heard of FND before, to which I reply that it's because they don't watch C4.

[@leonbanks5728]

I started watching it in 2014. I didn't watch series 1 and 2 when they first came out because I was 10 and 11 retrospectively.

[@leonbanks5728]

@@davidz3879 Channel 4 is the best channel in the world.

[@janeskeet3506]

So many things from this show have become common sayings in our house, Sh*t On It (obvs) You look nice (Jackie said quietly) but also "Not the Mercedes!" 😂 So sad we lost Paul Ritter who plays Martin ~ I feel there were so many more seasons possible with this show

[@sassyjintheuk]

Jackie & Jim starred in a very funny & weird comedy series 20 yrs ago or more called: 'The Green Wing'. Hysterical. Sadly Jim passed away recently but he'll live on forever as the fantastic father in this great series.x

[@johncartwright8154]

Mark Heap was brilliant as Dr. Statham in that great but bizarre series. Especially when he had to be 'spontaneous' if you recall. I don't recall Paul Ritter (died 2021) in that series? And Mark Heap is very much alive!

[@sassyjintheuk]

@johncartwright8154 Yes, you r correct, I meant Mark and typed Jim! There really is no hope 4 me I fear!😉

[@yzolakitchi]

Love your reactions, one of my fave shows. Following on from your discussion of alligators before episode 4...have you guys checked out Danny Bhoy's bit "How to run away from crocodiles". Cracks me up every time, he's definitely one of the best stand-ups - would love your reaction to him. Sending smiles from sunny England 😁

[@arsenalsmenfifa22]

Last episode in season 5 is the saddest episode u will cry

[@micheletrainor1601]

Have they finished the show as been dying to see queen happy/sad watching it. Have I missed them doing the reaction ? Sorry to bother u but really appreciate it if you know at all. Cheers.

[@johnh4639]

You ended the episode about a minute early. Funny ending with Grandma outside 😂

[@lewishawkes3924]

One of the best shows on this channel

[@bblair2627]

BLOODY RUTHERFORDS!!!

[@swordfishK2]

I think the character Jim gets a bit tedious. But overall it's a good show.

[@LadyCatBlue]

I enjoy this show, but Jim ruins it for me. I find him too ridiculous to be funny.

[@markstafford6454]

Brian is flipping out! I love y’all’s content and it makes me happy 😃

[@seanystarscream]

You should watch still game its the best Scottish show ever made, the banter is top notch

[@JB-vr1vz]

Yes, keep watching, it gets better and better.

[@smookedcheese]

A Charming and adorable couple of muppets ❤

[@cynthiaschultheis1660]

CRACKS ME UP THAT JIM'S AFRAID OF HIS OWN DOG!!!

[@darrenmorgan870]

Didn't she get locked out the house in her bikini and well you can figure out the rest, the Dad only gets better over each episode same with Jim and their Nan, but just wait till you meet her new boyfriend I think his name is Mr Morris,, with shows like this you have to get to understand each character and then you'll find out how really good it is, like Jim just one episode with him and his dog won't seem that funny but as soon as you know his character he'll crack you up by just standing there and trying to be the boss of his dog, telling him to sit and the dog doing his own thing, Other countries who watch this don't understand it straight away and they don't find it funny but the ones who give it a chance find out how funny a show about a Friday night dinner can really be, specially with so many different characters

[@Whippy99]

Friday night dinner at my Jewish friend’s is absolutely wonderful. I think we should all adopt it!

[@SpaceQuack]

my favourite moment of this series is jim trying to say use the proper term for his little Jewish hat Yarmulke ...yamacack, habbacab, 😀

[@digdew]

“She just died… in the Mercedes”😂

You guys are looking exceptionally regal today :)

Talking of Karens, check out Eddie Hall (former world's strongest man) visiting Karen's Diner in Manchester (the rudest diner in Britain). He took his wife there for their anniversary meal and she was very uncomfortable 🤣🤣

Haha, KB's and QB's restaurant anecdotes are reminders that MPAI

Not related to the video, but Queen Boomer your hair looks lovely in this video! also love the top, so cute 💚

It’s also my birthday today 😂🎉🎉good little present

[@lavenderllamamusic]

Adam calls Johnny a div and it instantly reminds me of the first (and last) time I heard that word. On The Inbetweeners and it's said by the same actor

[@susanhumphreys9168]

I love the southern accent , reminds me of that great movie Gone with the Wind

[@goldboy150]

FYI, Jewish families do say “Christ”, “Jesus”, “Jesus Christ” etc in the same way others do. In fact, I whacked my shin on my bed earlier today and yelled “JESUS CHRIST!!” to an empty room.

[@jonbolton3376]

Even though i love this slightly more than The Inbetweeners, i also always think of Simon Bird as Will.

[@danzo5727]

Ahhh, now I get why King Boomer gets us, he does sensible UK customer service.

[@enemde3025]

Why do Americans say CRIAG as CREG and not CRAYG as Brits do ? I've just discovered Friday Night Dinner. It's great. Very funny. Because nothing says " happy birthday" more, to a Jewish boy , than a book about the SS !! My wife used to call someone I worked with " your girlfriend " .

[@KoasterKing205]

Exactly! That gets on my nerves too!

[@lordwalker71]

The bonds go as follows Connery Craig Moore Brosnan The guy who did one Dalton I was a big advocate for Pierce to take over the role because I loved the show Remington Steele but I've only watched his movies once where I've watch Connery and Moore and Craig's movies multiple times with Connery and Moore's dozens of times each because I grew up with them. I also have only watched Dalton's movies once.

[@KoasterKing205]

Pierce Brosnan & Daniel Craig are my 2 favourite Bonds!

I used to sell this iced tea at work that was 98% sugar and a lady bought 3 bottles, told me she loved how sweet it was and then later complained because she was diabetic and i didn’t tell her it had sugar 😭
