"Kayvan Novak Aka Facejacker" The Jonathan Ross Show Series 3 Ep 04 8 September 2012. Part 4/5.

[@bengalG]

Kayvan is a big fish in a small pond. He deserves far more recognition than he gets.

[@Sam-fb3sk]

That's very true

[@edgehaineproductions]

watching this 10 years on seeing my man kayvan getting the respect hes always deserved. not only a stellar straight actor and comedic actor but a handsome devil to boot. love him to pieces.

[@edgehaineproductions]

i actually saw him on the tube once, it was quiet just before facejacker and i couldn't work up the courage to say hi, so i just stood in the same carriage as him to be near him lol. you know hes good when hes not overshadowed by the titan that is matt berry.

[@Chris-i0i0i0]

It's time for a new series of Fonejacker. With all that's happened the last couple of years, and all the clowns running countries around the world, there is a wealth of material a man this funny could come up with. Do it Kayvan. Make us smile again.

[@deanslife1]

Yes we need George Agdgdgwngo back

[@zx7-rr486]

Yeah, but here's the thing... all the people who detest those "clowns" are wokeists, and wokeism kills comedy dead. Fonejacker would not be allowed today because it's be labelled racist/xenophobic/misogynistic etc.etc.

[@DokkaChapman]

@@zx7-rr486 Mate, I'm a leftie and would f**king LOVE Fonejacker to come back! The only reason it wouldn't be made today is because I'm 90% sure Kayvan wouldn't be interested. He's older now, a bit more shy and in interviews tends to shy away from doing impressions. He's also been doing well in the US with What We Do In The Shadows, and when that's done there's no doubt he'll either take a nice break or have other stuff over there waiting in the wings.

[@Chris-i0i0i0]

@zx7-rr486 Nonsense. I detest those clowns and I'm pretty sure I'm not a "wokeist". Get in the bin.

[@dominicaaaaa5547]

​@@zx7-rr486people don't even know what woke means do they lol. Just means to be aware of injustice and to be fair and tolerant. Can't be a bad thing. I agree Comedy now is worse than it was 20+ years ago on the whole and that a lot of comedy tries too hard to be inclusive and stuff to the point of sacrificing being ..funny. but being woke is good lol and being kind and respecting that other people who have lived different lives and have different minds to us have a right to be upset / offended by stuff is important. I love fonejacker tho lol. Sadly agree that he probs wouldn't wanna make it now tho anddddd maybe everyone is too aware of the characters and so it wouldn't work?

[@tothestars101]

Even better than Sasha.

[@jimipurple123]

I don't like sasha because of his Zionist views

[@mrglibb]

+barkingbasher Firstly, if you can't spell islamofascist I have no confidence in your knowlege on the subject. Second, why on earth would having a distaste for zionist views affiliate one with islamofascism? Islamofascism may be distinctly opposed to the concept of zionism but that doesn't make one who shares that opposition an islamofascist by association. For example, I strongly agree with the concept of having time legally alotted to workers for holidays in order to combat overworking by employers, that doesn't mean I sympathise with Hitler just because he introduced that to germany.

[@Pragnantweggyboard]

+barkingbasher Man people like you need to understand what the fuck is happening, we have a 'Muslim' threat but it's not Ahmed in the paper shop or Yasmin in Sainsburys, it's Sunni setting up shop in your neighbourhood with a shitty Wahhabi mosque. Aim at the right fucking people at least.

[@sarvinakrami8372]

Pragnant_weggy_board as a Muslim and an Iranian it's really offending for us REAL Muslims to be downgraded to the level of people like Isis and Alqaade and these sort of people. I mean Isis members these are anarchists from all around the world rather than Muslims

[@infinitydreamzz]

Comedy standards have (been) changed (for us) indeed in the last 5 years. Most of facejacker/fonejacker comedy wouldn't fly off the ground nowadays.

[@DokkaChapman]

I think the only reason why it wouldn't be done today is because YT ruined the prank genre. He'd have to up the anti to keep folks watching, plus there's the risk of getting caught.

[@infinitydreamzz]

@@DokkaChapman you don't think wokeness has anything to do with it

[@DokkaChapman]

@@infinitydreamzz For Facejacker perhaps, but I think that would be more due to the association with some of the characters Matt Lucas has played over the years, Fonejacker though would be solid. And hey, who's to say they would be the same characters, Kayvan would undoubtedly have new roles to prank people as if the show came back, otherwise there would be little point. However I don't think he feels there would be a need to. Fonejacker was obviously his way to show the acting world how versatile he could actually be, now he's shown that he's off doing other amazing things. :)

[@infinitydreamzz]

@@DokkaChapman fonejacker was making fun of various world accents, 100% we can't have that today, wouldn't be allowed to make fun of a Nigerian or Indian accent on national TV

[@DokkaChapman]

@@infinitydreamzz Claiming something couldn't be made today shows one of either 2 things: Meaning that the show was "of its time" and wouldn't be relevant enough today to make an impact or the person who said it lacks the imagination to make said premise work in the modern age.
