Mock the Week Series 19 Episode 6

[@surfacingcom]

Maff did really well for such short notice

[@fmt4933]

He really did, and he looked proper happy to be there.

[@MartijnPennings]

You do notice very well that the comedians prepare for the show a lot, because during the questions everyone except Maff had 10 good lines at the ready. His stand-up bit was pretty good though, had a good chuckle on "protein shake". Props to him for stepping up!

[@muisverriet]

He did super well! Would love to see him on the show again.

[@silvasilvasilva]

I have to say I had a hard time understanding his accent...

[@user-wm1em1rg4p]

quick maffs

[@kalenzypie]

Ria was charmingly hilarious and ED KILLED IT AS USUAL

[@tompengelly8030]

She went for the jugular occasionally, I liked that. And the superglue and dishwasher jokes were a wonderful way to end my week 😂

[@barbarajoseph-adam8337]

I love her. I wanna have her babies.

[@alyssa-hk2pg]

I'm glad they keep bringing on Ed on for this season, I'm always guaranteed to watch an episode if he's in it. Thanks for the upload!

[@jesseberg3271]

He's probably sleeping on a sofa in Dara's office, they're old friends. I doubt they're letting Ed Dara or Hugh out of the studio, the show must go on, even if it's just the three of them, a receptionist, the makeup guy, one of Milton's shirts and a photo of Nish.

[@alyssa-hk2pg]

@@jesseberg3271 ha!

[@FrauM.]

I absolutely love Ed, can you tell me another shows he is in, so I can search for them? Unfortunately there is hardly any other option than KZbin for me, because video players on the the websites of BBC and others aren't working outside of the UK. 😢

[@alyssa-hk2pg]

@@FrauM. absolutely! he’s been on QI, Would I Lie To You, Was It Something I Said, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, HeadJam, the Panel, and 8 Out of 10 Cats. He was also on great British Bake off (celebrity version), has been on a few talk shows (several on the Graham Norton Show), and has tons of his own stand up on KZbin as well!

[@FrauM.]

@@alyssa-hk2pg Then there is a lot to look up for me in the next time. Looking forward to it. Thanks a lot!

[@darksemmel503]

Is it just me or did Rhys come across extremely relaxed and happy this episode? Thoroughly enjoyed it

[@t3chvest]

cause he wasn't the young/new guy for once!

[@lizab.stough9396]

Kinda weird, isn't it? Love him with his "brother" Ed Gamble.

[@tuckerkai750]

Instablaster...

[@thisravenhasflown010]

He was probably buzzed

[@TheWAYF]

Maff did very well at such short notice.

[@mattwandcow]

Rhys is killing it this episode

[@doctorofsarcasm1324]

"You could be king!" "Oh, then I love it," That exchange made me laugh possibly too much.

[@philmace81]

I was waiting for somebody to say "or queen"

[@nunyabiznis3595]

@@philmace81 that was what i was thinking

[@DrMuizz]

Was anyone else watching this and rooting for Maff to do well?

[@donutsrock]

Yes, I should think probably everyone. They should invite him back to be on the show properly, to give him a fair chance with decent preparation.

[@ipellaers]

Yeah, can we keep him? Angela's absence was godsend already, but he's actually good as a replacement!

[@rosemaryjones5550]

The role play one was great

[@biggusdickus5986]

I know covid was real it nearly killed my younger brother, on a machine for 5 days, but it didnt seem to be anywhere near our village, apart from one lad who died, well lads pushing it he was 57 and had had bypasses, but otherwise nobody else caught it in all the village, of which a large numgber of very old people reside here. The fogeys seemed immune already lol.. I think l might av had it a few weeks before it was announced, l had one nostril run for 7 days, that stopped and it was followed by a very very mild cough forr 7 days then that cleared and the other nostril ran slightly for 7 days and that was it. 🤔

[@TimesFM4532]

​@donutsrock tbf they likely gave him what they prep for him and mixed others

[@Tia-Marie]

Wooo! It's been great to have Ed on the show regularly but I am all about my weekly Dara fix thank you again!

[@richardvinsen2385]

His stand up is great.

[@susanjewitt8783]

Trenton Quarantino. Need my regular Hugh Dennis fix. I know he is more known as an actor but love to see him branch out into stand up. Not sure it would work though.

[@defaultyorker6096]

Yeah. I've always preferred the show when they've had more regulars. I think it's just that the show has a more distinct character that way. Would love to see Ed become one. Or Milton, or Angela. I think the show would be better that way.

[@FrauM.]

Unfortunately we don't get many british shows over here in Germany. I am so happy for this weekly upload of Mock the week. Ed should be regularly in the show, he is hilarious!

[@mollyrosem22]

When Dara says “Maff, Hugh, and Rhys” it sounds like “Matthew and Rhys” 😆

[@DomWeasel]

Hugh's description of rural pubs is spot on for here in Norfolk.

[@michaelharrison3602]

Every time I've ever gone in a pub in Wales they pretend not to understand English even Though everyone had been talking it minutes earlier

[@Rachel98246]

@@michaelharrison3602we can speak English, we just can’t stand the English

[@sassyfighter9577]

Living in the US, I am so glad this is on KZbin.

[@desinerd0224]

Love Maff! They should bring him on more!

[@charlied3189]

Maff did a great job. Happy they gave him a chance in the spotlight

[@aecides3203]

When Ed Byrne did that dishwasher joke, I could just imagine Jon Richardson getting angry about the air quotes around 'properly'.

[@Gersti96]

Given that this is the second time Tom mentions Ryan and his mum Anne, i am convinced they are real people from his childhood.

[@dudessjoddie]

Or it’s just one of his rehearsed jokes & ‘go to’ names 😅

[@christopherwoolnough2160]

Maff is good enough to be on regularly.

[@antonymilne1346]

A warm up comedian's gotta be good. Damn good. He's dealing with an audience that might not be in a giggly mood yet so he's gotta be good enough to make people who're neutral laugh. That's difficult to do. He's definitely earned his right to be there

[@ronin1915]

It’s always “Ryan’s birthday” with Tom Please keep uploading this

[@nanettegauthier8239]

Lets everybody make Maff Brown the Mike the Camera Man of MTW

[@Omega_Mak]

This is the most my home ‘town’ has been mentioned ever. Nobody talks about the Isle of Wight 😂😂😂

[@francaperotti5934]

Tom Allen is hilarious so is Maff.

[@catherinehouston3325]

I was in the virtual audience for this episode

[@aprildawnsunshine4326]

Which one were you?

[@Tastiest-of-Cakes]

The "good cop, dad cop" joke is too good. 😂

[@msontopoftheworld]

Reece is great...but Ed ALWAYS delivers laughs! Thumbs up, each 👍🏾👍🏾 Oh, and "protein shake.." 😆👌🏾

[@MeeowzerStrike]

Yeyyyy! Thank you for uploading! Have an entire batch of virtual cookies and a random badger plushie!

[@davidoreilly7328]

Maff did really well on this episode, but you could tell he was told he’d be on at really short notice tho. Like the rest of them were all prepared and had their jokes at the ready, whereas Maff seemingly only had his standup ready and was mostly quiet throughout a fair bit. But credit where credit is due, he did really well. Hope to see more of him

[@antonymilne1346]

Hes gotta be a pretty good comedian, if he's doing warm-up performance. It's his job to put people in the giggly mood, so he's gotta make people laugh from being completely neutral. I'd love to see how he'd do with some prep time

[@Eggzy-b7f]

It does say at the start lol

[@happivaras]

@David O'Reilly Eye agree wit choo, eye wish it was your co med y wee herd.

[@BlackEpyon]

I love how the Zoom audience have now become a segment on the show!

[@iamdb1990]

as someone from Bromley like Tom, what he said about the tier thing is so true, we tried to move as it suited us lol

[@DavidOakesMusic]

Ed Byrne with a couple of "Scenes..." belters as usual.

[@TheOracle65]

This episode's Scene's we'd like to see was the best yet this series I think. Or maybe I've had too much coffee. Rhys's Deano joke was epic though.

[@barbarajoseph-adam8337]

Ria is brilliant, here’s hoping she gets invited back often!

[@HTE57]

@Eric Anderson Thanks for your opinion, Eric!

[@eastvandb]

@Eric Anderson Yeah, no, there's NOTHING objective about a sense of humour. It's entirely subjective. You're not the arbitrator of what's legitimately funny. Sorry, maybe you missed the memo.

[@eastvandb]

@Eric Anderson Oh, please do explain performance to me some more, Eric, you ponce. You write like a first-year university student trying to sound smart. You're embarrassing yourself.

[@jam-if2ej]

@Eric Anderson comedy is not just the delivery, but the reception of the joke. The objective aspects of comedy, if they exist, would relate to the delivery, your comment relates to the reception, which is subjective. My (also subjective) opinion is that Ria did a great job.

[@annnee6818]

@Eric Anderson You must be fun at parties 🙄

[@andrewjohnson6716]

Ria held her own on her first visit. I imagine that challenged for someone asking into an established dynamic that’s been playing out for years.

[@therocketmanlfc]

Rhys James is hilarious 😂😂

[@samsantos9545]

thank you for the closed captions!!!

[@KeesaRenee]

I would love to see Ed Byrne as the Doctor in Doctor Who....just me?

[@onebrikshy]

He was actually in the BBC audio production of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: Hexagonal Phase, which is a step in the right direction :)

[@nkaur9008]

Gosh yes he would make such a humorous, sophisticated doctor.

[@megadoominator7005]

Yes he would make a great Dr

[@salfordnurse]

Tom Allen opposite him as the Master?

1%. Is it what % of radio adverts are not voiced by Hugh Dennis?

[@davidcheater4239]

I hope Angela will be OK.

[@jesseberg3271]

Hopefully they're just taking extra precautions.

[@alyssa-hk2pg]

She said on Twitter that she’s alright, she got tested for COVID and it came back negative, she just had a cold of some sort and will be fine. She wanted to be safe.

[@cookingbyalex9054]

She unfortunatly died last night

[@justalittlealien]

@Nat L i think they're the idiot because that's a terrible thing to joke about so you're totally fine

[@eastvandb]

@@justalittlealien It was terrible. And I laughed out loud, so I'm a pretty awful person. I do love Angela, though, so at least I feel guilty about it!
