Russell Howard & Jon Richardson Are CHAOTIC Housemates | Cats Does Countdown | Channel 4

The fact that Jon Richardson used to live with Russell Howard before they were famous has not escaped Jimmy Carr's attention, so their knowledge of each other as flatmates and holiday pals was put to the test in the Cats Does Countdown studio, revealing all their personal habits: the good, the bad, and the downright weird.
Hosted by Jimmy Carr, the 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown crew take over the famous words and numbers quiz, with a comedy twist!

Perfect friendship doesn't exi-

[@DonG714]

I still listen to their podcasts every night in bed. They're soooo funny together, be great if they brought the radio show back.

[@ym10up]

Same!!! I like the way they interact!

[@leeks1408]

What’s their podcast called?

[@ym10up]

@@leeks1408 It started as The Russell Howard Show, where Jon was his co-host. Later on, Russell got too busy (I believe), it became The Jon Richardson Show, where Matt Forde was the co-host.

[@Toronto_James]

Those podcasts were gold. I still play “Fat or pregnant” with my wife at the local shopping center & giggle at wands/wangs when watching Harry Potter.

[@Dog1818YT]

@@ym10up it was actually because Russell found radio too restrictive for his style of comedy due to the lack of a live audience to bounce his jokes off of.

[@Milliedaisyonlyfans]

They’re so cute

[@Snookbone]

Ok

[@Starlight_Akira]

@@Snookbone Whats the passive agression for? Are you disputing the validity of the statement?

[@lloydnorval1989]

​@@Starlight_Akiradon't worry, probably just jealous cos they're NOT cute, hence hiding behind a profile pic of their dog. 😅

[@nathanharrison5528]

When they shock hands at the end I thought they were gonna kiss lol😂

[@dana0530]

I was just laughing at the whole mole/chocolate situation in Jon’s hand and literally just found out I have a mole there as well 😂 the things you learn about yourself watching these shows 😂

[@MelissaThompson432]

I remember watching this before. It was the first time I'd ever seen Russell and I didn't know yet that I was madly in love with him.

[@emercycrite]

They're such cute mates!

[@bee18825]

Care bear chest hair in sort of a heart shape 😂 wow

[@markduggan3451]

They are both brilliant.

[@NowUndefined]

Russell should have only gotten 1 point for that last shot

[@MelissaThompson432]

Well, Jon called it. I don't think he cared. The "is there a carrot in the box" one bothered him far more. That was Jon and Sean Lock. Twice if I recall correctly.

[@C0MPUTERPHILE]

I can only imagine what would have happened if Sean also lived with them

[@youknow227]

[@rad4924]

In my headcanon Sean was their dodgy landlord.

[@ginge641]

They'd get some carrots in their box.

[@TheSuzberry]

Watching this in 2024 and thinking Russell is married to a doctor and Jon is married to a fellow comedian. Who would have thought these two would succeed so well in finding a spouse.

[@merlapittman5034]

I've seen all these before, and they're too good not to watch again. I am a little disappointed, though, because we didn't get to see Jon's heart-shaped chest hair! 😂

[@jukkaroutila2473]

“The toes of his feet”

[@backelie]

Fun fact: In Spain toes are called foot-fingers.

Finally! Some clips I hadn’t seen before!

[@BillHicks420]

I don't accept the outcome of Flinchoso, Russell flinched two times when it would have been a headshot, only to be scored as bodyshots.

[@Xune2000]

Face shot is 2 points, body shot with flinch is 2 points. What's the problem?

[@Sangsstuff]

​@@Xune2000the problem is that faceshot with flinch is 3 points. Dodging the ball to avoid the face is 2 points.

[@Xune2000]

@@Sangsstuff I'm mean, if you flinch and still get hit in the face you just look silly at that point. Game over.

[@TheLuckyKings1]

RIP Benny Harvey, miss you big man

[@katharina...]

Benny Harvey is alive, he was recently spotted in Argentina.

[@VivekAnandJ]

They seem like such atypical friends. But they seem really thick as well 😂

[@JayC133]

I've seen a flaw in Flinchoso, you just need to flinch all the time to minimise the points won by the other player... Secondly, why am I so invested in this game?!

[@British_Rogue]

It's 1 point for a flinch *PLUS* the points for a body strike. It isn't either or.

[@JayC133]

@@British_Rogue Yeah I understand that, so flinch enough that the ball misses... 1pt

[@tolland4433]

@@JayC133 My thoughts exactly. Russell was more or less doing that as well.

[@jenniferkonstant5920]

It's the second most exciting thing to happen in television since Carrot In a Box😂😂

[@ZEGO24x]

Brilliant Game...

[@lovelywaz]

You guys should either confirm CatsCountdown is done for good or update us on it's return please. 🤗🤗 And that is a DEMAND! 🤨🤨

[@ginge641]

Yeah I'm sure they'll listen to some bitchy child in the KZbin comments.

[@carlosheriquez6819]

i wish this was a thing in the US

[@francescaa8331]

How many of us checked between our finger? Lol.

[@sarahm5951]

Russel can obviously hear. He's fighting laughter at all the funny parts.

[@chrisreay7033]

could be reacting to the crowd

[@squiglemcsquigle8414]

Or he can read the very expressive body language

[@liams1991]

He can see when everyone else laughs. Laughter is contagious.

[@ksuths]

That toe flossing thing is so satisfying. Been doing that since I first saw that episode.

I have a mole in the exact same spot, except it's between my ring and middle finger. I think this means Jon is my lobster.
