Omid Djalili reads a funny letter Wimbledon FC wrote about Gary Lineker

[@nymalous3428]

"You want some?!....I'll go get some..." He hadn't even started reading the letter and I was laughing! :) Wonderful!

[@ModelsExInferis]

He's such a great talent! I wish we saw more of him, especially in stand up, that's where he really shines!

[@ModelsExInferis]

I've loved Omid since I first saw him about two decades ago! He's such a hugely underrated comedian. Watching this reminds me, once again, that we do not see him as often as we should on TV! That Vinny Jones bit at the end had just the right amount of sting! And, as a pseudo-Cockney myself, I can say he did us proud with the accent!

[@chasm3607]

We need more Omid!

[@justanotheryoutubeaccount0]

Since the first mummy i have enjoyed this man.

[@LordSkella]

Me too!

[@alexelmaleh3076]

Yalla, yalla habibi, yalla yalla, yalla yalla my baby yalla yallaa: I’ve been singing that since I first heard him sing that. I love this man. He’s a legend.

[@pltopper771]

[@gretebremseth1622]

Signed with a litte kiss. Sorry! That's Vinnie Jones' signature! 😂

I first saw Omid Djalili on TV some years ago doing stand-up. If I remember rightly I had missed the beginning of his set and he was speaking in an Iranian accent so I thought that was his natural speaking voice. He was funny, but then suddenly he said in a pure English accent “Oh I really can’t carry on with this anymore!” I burst out laughing and have been a fan ever since. The letter which he read in his self-confessed middle class/Cockney accent was brilliant and I agree with him about his favourite part of it referencing Des Lynam! I don’t know how long ago this letter was written (even I know that Wimbledon FC no longer exists) but it suggests some foresight on the part of the writers!!!😆😆😆

[@libbyfforbes]

Sounds like a fair description of Lineker. Not sure about the description of the BBC though 😂

[@shc3754]

Never seen this guy but he’s awesome I gotta look him up 😂

[@aethernaut1899]

DJOU WANT SUM well, alright, I'll go buy some, I don't have any on me at the moment

[@michaelcaine8311]

Simply magnificent

[@bryanwales6487]

as he reads this letter, all i can hear is bob hoskins yelling smee smee what about smee

[@bodnica]

I miss Bob Hoskins both of them talented and charismatic

[@alanrogers7090]

He sounds just like the late Bob Hoskins.

[@comealongcomealong4480]

@alanrogers7090 Aahhh 😊 bought alot of pleasure to our lives did Bob Hoskins. I might even have to dig him out playing opposite Cher! in the Mermaids film. Loved him as the theatre impresario during WW2 with Judy Dench. And probably lots more me old brain has since tipped out.

[@vo4068]

Liniker is paid 6,300 tv licences per year!

[@bodnica]

He looks like my late father and grandfather , unbelievable, we are not Iranian

[@oliveappleby8672]

Great letter and true😅😅

[@kristianstipe]

What engraving is censored/hidden on the front of the podium?

[@dominicbuckley8309]

It's the pulpit of Union Chapel, London: each face has a large diamond shaped field on which nothing is written. Whether this was designed purposely or whether something was intended to be inscribed, I have no idea, but there is actually nothing there. I think it's just a trick of the lighting which makes it look as though something has been pixellated out.

[@zzota]

Spot on about Lineker. He hasn't changed.

[@vallejomach6721]

He wasn't wrong.

[@Vicki-s1j]

He knew he was in over his head and he pulled the Republicans’ favorite getaway card: Get mad, talk over the other person, and stomp off. He looked terrible.

[@mikebarton]

Thing is...Lineker was right on all three counts! 🤔 Oops!

[@hadespuppy]

The best thing that could happen to Linekar is to end up spending some quality time in a dark alley with a Vinnie Jones character.

[@oxymoron02]

I see you missed the point of this letter being highlighted in this manner. A typical football fan, basically.

[@hadespuppy]

​@@oxymoron02in fact, I don't care one way or another about football. That was more a general comment on Linekar and what I think he deserves for his future.

[@suparnamaiti.]

It's distracting when the narrator breaks character so many times and tries to put his two cents while reading the letter.

[@lh3557]

You are ridiculous!! He EXPLAINED at the very start. That was you que to turn it off, Dimwit!!

[@RadTeir]

more omid please , what happened to that night show of omid ?!! i really missed it
