Now This Is What You Call A TOP TIER Crowd | Dara Ó Briain

[@aoibhinquinn7310]

I'm the only eejit that heard Rob say "bookmaker" and was immediately like "oh cool he makes books I love books!"

[@ripdbtpoo1441]

Well, in the U.K.we do usually say bookie.

[@marcusdire8057]

Not the only eejit. Always been "bookie" never heard "book maker" used that way.

[@RannonSi]

I thought they said that in the states as well.

[@shelbynamels7948]

@@ripdbtpoo1441 that is such an Aussie thing to say.

[@shelbynamels7948]

just like the 'game maker' is a little off. He should have said 'game designer'.

[@DasTaenzelndePony]

Anyone else think Tim had massive side burns and then realised it was just a shadow?

[@tamaramacadam8650]

Oh fuck it's a SHADOW

[@Deusaga]

Wait it's a shadow? I too thought they were epic side burns.

[@stevepayne3094]

As an Edinburgh Fringe veteran I advise anyone going to see a stand up to sit in the front row, especially if you don't have to.

[@nolongerlistless]

Sadist, or lonely masochist?

[@TheYeetusLord]

That whole "that's what from means" bit is just comedy perfection. The chances of that happening so insane is incredible and it happened. So brilliant! :D

[@Ramonatho]

Dara knowing Canabalt still gets me every time. Wouldn't expect that.

[@MrRoberttheprune]

years ago we saw you do a gig at Chatham and you talked to Dave a lorry driver - after bigging up his job as a knight of the road and a free spirit you asked him how far he went "Essex" he said and when asked what he drove "skip lorry" bought the house down. Strange thing is months later at a friends party I met Dave for the first time where he turned out to be a long lost son of the hostess!

[@ulalaFrugilega]

Of course I had seen this several times, but I do not know it by heart, so it still makes me laugh 😂. DVDs of comedians are a real investment.

[@Elesario]

There's no way I could be in that situation and say "Data Engineer" and not just kill the mood across the entire audience. I know my place.

[@Richard_Jones]

I feel the same about Lab Analyst. It sounds like it might be interesting but the reality is sooo depressing.

[@trueblue96CFC]

Tbf if I was from Orpington and lived in New York… I’d say I was from New York

[@PianoKwanMan]

To be fair, up by Crofton Lane, border with Petts Wood, and Newstead Wood are nice places to live. If he's from the Ramsden Estate, Godspeed

[@ripdbtpoo1441]

But surely, as soon as you'd open your mouth...much like poor old Tim.

[@Pallethands]

Jaysus, listening to him in 2x is mad

[@johnaphone]

0.50x or less and he becomes rosie jones

[@perryrush6563]

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that listens to KZbin at fast forward speeds

[@SheeplessNW6]

Tim really didn't look pleased about the booing!

[@meredithisme3752]

Yeah up himself

[@geraldfitzgibbon7428]

Dara ur some fecker. Pure gold

[@KR-qb1xi]

I was front row in Calgary and he never got to me - he hit the cartographer next to me and went no further

[@TonyBongo869]

Went to that show, you have to admit, do you have a more interesting job than cartographer? I know I don’t 😀

[@sevro]

Maybe he got lost on his way to you? Should have asked the guy next to you for a map

[@TonyBongo869]

@@sevro you’re not from Sligo are you (inside joke)? 😀

[@ericlong9085]

So funny

[@TonyBongo869]

Dara , come back to Calgary Canada, and bring Ed with you

[@bondfool]

Dara would never go undercover as a standup, that would be ridiculous. Pat Springleaf, though…

[@timothygraham4304]

Pure copping!😂

[@stevenoels2757]

What happened to poor Steve ? Did he ever stop running and open that box ? We may never know .....

[@kevinfoo8031]

Found a bigger box to hide in. Hehe.

[@stevenoels2757]

Let's hope so haha@@kevinfoo8031

[@finbarscanlonwolf]

I've watched this so many times & I still think that the " bookmaker " guy actually was talking about making books the old school way hand stitch books. And not bookmaking as in placing a bet..

[@phuckweed]

Oh thank goodness. I thought I was the only one! 😅

[@finbarscanlonwolf]

@@phuckweed Well there are bookies in America. So that's why I'm thinking it's actually bookmaker as in book's. And also the confused look on his face, when Jimmy starts on about betting. I'm kinda hoping that the guy might see these comments & let us know. Because it's sorta wrecking my head not knowing.

[@ripdbtpoo1441]

No, not so. That's a bookbinder.

[@Ron-Ayres]

Someone who makes books would never describe themselves as a bookmaker -as strange as that might sound. They'd say _I'm a bookbinder or booksmith,_ or occasionally just say _I make and repair books._

[@shelbynamels7948]

like the guy below said, they'd call themselves bookbinders if they actually made - fabricated - books.

[@howlinhobbit]

Vancouver, BC or Washington?

[@michellefreedman9265]

Most people would assume B.C.

[@catzenhouse]

@@michellefreedman9265 Yeah, I would assume so, too. But I was just curious....

[@MorganBondelid]

I asked the same thing. I’d guess BC, but you never know and the regional accents are quite close.

[@werotan]

That there is some twisty logic!

[@channelzero2252]

While it is still funny, I watched this just a couple of months aho, but it was only uploaded 45 minutes go? Either I watched it on a rip-off channel and didn't realise, or Dara's team is running out of clips!

[@darthhepsy]

Tbf the show was from like 2008 so I'd imagine it's just a rip off channel stealing the clip 😅

[@decodolly1535]

It's on this channel. This whole segment was uploaded a month ago as part of the compilation "Funniest Crowd Moments from Dara O'Briain's Carrer" (sic)

[@timothygraham4304]

​@@darthhepsyThis was from his last DVD in 2015.

[@darthhepsy]

@@timothygraham4304 My god it was, I'm fucking stupid

[@herrunsinn774]

Ok... I've been wondering where "Curious Droid" (Paul Shillito) has been recently. Now I know... You have turned to standup comedy. You can trade the wild shirt for a sold white one Paul... but you can't fool us! 😅🤣😂

[@Cludnugget]

Just realised that the whole sting operation bit is almost word for word the same as Romesh when his audience member starts getting a bit cagey with the answers.

[@Home-u6g]

Curious who made it first

[@Cludnugget]

@@Home-u6g out of the two, I think Dara's was the earlier recording

[@marcusboylan1814]

Didn’t he say ‘book making’ as in he makes books?

[@JLF201]

"Bookmaker" as in a bookie. A person who makes books is my first thought as well. It took me a while to figure it out in a novel I was reading.

[@jaspermooren5883]

I thought that for a minutes as well. But that would be a bookbinder or an author, depending on if you physically make books (although of course that is a super niche profession nowadays that is really relegated to etsy shops and stuff for very special bookcovers) or write them. Bookmaking is the someone that balances the books, by making sure the betting odds are slighly in the favour for the betting organiser to maximise profits. So someone that makes the books black so to speak. So a very different job from being a bookbinder.

[@marcusboylan1814]

@@JLF201 ah thank you.

[@phuckweed]

Something about the way he emphasises the word "book" and like there's a pause/gap between it and "maker" made me think he was a book binder

[@Cludnugget]

​@@phuckweedI'd expect a bookbinder would come up against this sort of discussion enough to describe themselves as a bookbinder, rather than a bookmaker without a second thought.

[@daniellamcgee4251]

I think a woman might have been strong enough for the audience questions, too. 🤔

[@phuckweed]

Funny you mention that. I noticed the girlfriend got passed over 🤔

[@LovelyLass-nb8op]

Nope too boring

why did miserable tim go to a comedy show
