100% my favourite guest :D Dentist: "model making with pain" 😂

[@DaphneBlue50s]

+megadan2k15 was about to say the same! i would love to spend a week at a remote cabin with beautiful nature around, just talking about life with that guy!

[@MalpasDan]

DaphneBlue50s oh man that sounds like fun :D But the whiskey, damn xD that would make a fun week

[@Prickmyfingeronarose]

+megadan2k15 OMG I absolutely love him too!

[@crashunderride]

+megadan2k15 I loved the "most police don't have a unicycle unit." lol

[@MalpasDan]

he is fucking awesome. even today i was thinking 'why the fuck am i in school. this shit is a waste of time.' YES he is a legend 100% :D

[@fornana2019]

No matter how crappy your day was, Russell makes it better!!!

[@ghenulo]

+Laura H Even though he hates his own parts?

[@paulod.candeias9442]

+ghenulo ??????????????????????????

[@ffionwilliams5817]

My god bts is everywhere aaaahhh! 😂

[@SL22798]

Jihoon Jisung Jimin so true

[@JaydevRaol]

Even after 4 years it's still True more than ever.

[@kauo2472]

This is honestlly such quality comedy. I love the general mood - being direct and thought-provoking, without being too offensive or obnoxious. Loving it. (And the conversation with the guest was the most incredible thing.)

[@MyUSADream]

I'm studying Media Production and honestly the Scotch part killed me. Hana just imagine that. Russell said: "Sure we'll get you Scotch" and everyone backstage is just like "Oh for fucking sake". Because they don't have Scotch there obviously. Some intern had to go run off the studio and find Scotch as fast as possible. Idk man I think that's hilarious.

[@Javssoccer]

lmao I totally thought about that too! That poor intern haha. Makes you wonder how they improvised

[@carolaleini]

+MyUSADream i thought the same (having interned as well)

[@ProducerCliff]

+MyUSADream brings back memories of people raiding my office for booze for some guest, thats why we always had well stocked Green Rooms at the BBC!

[@steer3643]

Kinda selfish if you ask me.

[@stuartmaise9230]

@@steer3643 Good think no one asked you.

[@Hardalia]

The "cooking show" ending disco is actually from a swedish morning show called "Nyhetsmorgon"

[@AviAvikesh]

+Hardalia Thanks ! :))

[@animalind3738]

+Hardalia Don´t know if you also are a swede or just happen to know this but thanks I couldn't remember what it was called ^^

[@ghenulo]

+Hardalia Bork de bork!

[@eventyraren]

+Hardalia good I am not the only Sweed here

[@NorthernSeaWitch]

Is it wrong to imagine Penny Dussek getting high on E at a rave and doing nasty things naked?

[@juniorsve]

I love the "Its not all doom and gloom" part of the show. Its always really inspiring. Thanks Russel!

[@thegirlbehindtheface3276]

+juniorsve Hi, this is Mui's dad. Thanks for your support. Do please check out our Facebook page: facebook.com/GirlBehindTheFace

[@user-lz9zw8gb9i]

juniorsve, *Russell

[@andrapopa7961]

The bloody french, he was so charming and funny, even Russell blushed. Hands down the best guest so far.

[@yasmingirl17]

I love the serious yet casual look the DJ has everytime the camera pans to her haha.

[@Floofaloo]

I just found out about Russell Howard, I really love coming on here and every video being able to make me smile. It's like a little dose of happiness in such a dreary seeming world.

[@lolaopal8884]

SilverNightmareFiend I

[@Toroonoo1]

I’m rewatching the whole show from the very first episode. My favourite British comedian

[@Michelle_Schu-blacka]

That guest is absolutely out of his mind and it's fantastic. The world needs people like him.

[@lenkacfk7155]

Yeah, it's rare a guest manages to fluster Russel - this guy was awesome!

[@eliseisle9218]

it's so refreshing seeing russell laugh during that interview

[@CoralRockHotelZanzibar]

That was your coolest interview ever. Very enjoyable viewing.

[@luvrap4eva]

Only recently discovered Russell Howard, he's a riot. As well as an extremely aggressive blinker.

[@07940657202]

hes got tics and a lazy eye (conditions)

[@numbuh272]

i think this is the most natural, funny guest segment i've watched, russell and philippe work so well together, the chemistry between them on stage is really entertaining, and the crowd seemed to love it too! just my opinion.

[@TheLunasticks]

The guest was awesome! :D

[@lolgayluce6028]

That interview is the most chaotic thing ever and I love it

[@katkitten5140]

"That's why mom doesn't fucking love you" Greatest reaction Ever!!

[@beatnikmary]

I think Russell needs to interview Man on Wire guy once a year. Minimum. I would definitely watch this as a recurring segment. OMG!

[@SEGAfan2006]

His name is Philip petite

[@rushokim]

Like how he describes the mental state when performing. Visualising

[@faramaruf9371]

RUSSELL HOWARD HAS NO CHILL MAN HE'S SAVAGE i love it.

[@annetduivenvoorden343]

I love his pronunciation of the word 'pussybility'. This made my whole day! :D

[@ProducerCliff]

+Annet Duivenvoorden Thats a great word, that is sooooo going into my everyday speech - somehow... maybe, "wow, now there's a pussybility...." or maybe "thats a pussybility if ever I saw one...."

One of the best guests ever. I really enjoyed this, Russell. Thanks so much for making it available to people outside of the UK. I heart you muchly.

[@pinking123et]

Sweden, where a DJ is in a news show. Yes, that was a news show.

[@onnovandersluijs9437]

Pinking Gaming Ah, Sweden. The Japan of Europe.

[@KaiPonVisp]

Onno van der Sluijs I kinda have ro agree with you on that one... xD

[@hughmongusfungusamongus2439]

Goddamn I fucking love this man.

[@Amethysthumphries]

"model making with pain" So funny xD

[@TriviaFreak]

That tax credits spoof ad was arguably the most hilarious part of this vid.

[@JoeDoesVoices]

I'd love that "Insani-tea" clip as a separate video for sharing!

[@khirankumar14]

that was the best guest ever!!!!!

[@rextyrrano5183]

"This is why mom doesn't fu**ing love you!" Cracked me up. To be honest though if my kid would shoot holes in the roof just to scare his brother I would have shipped him of to a boarding school years ago.

[@nikkibyrne4241]

Omg I'm in stitches with that clip of the young lad firing the gun and scaring his brother awake... I rewound it back about six times (if not more) 😂😂😂

[@rentheadangelcollins]

I honestly love this show. I have known of the harlequin condition for a while, but not much about it. I have seen the pictures of infants with inside out eyelids and just assumed no one with it lived past that point in their lives. RHGN, thank you for introducing me to that information. That woman is amazing, and I'm glad I know more about the condition.

[@thegirlbehindtheface3276]

+Rory Turing Hi, this is Mui's dad. Thanks for your support Rory. Do check out our Facebook page: facebook.com/GirlBehindTheFace

[@kirstieatkinson3093]

I just cannot fathom why people feel the need to bully this young lady for something she has no control over. I really hate humans sometimes! I hope she is still doing great work and is helping to change lives with her speeches!

[@maratemptress2142]

wow this is the best good news show God it was hilarious I wish the USA was this funny and this chill to drink on TV with a great man Philippe which who would have guessed he was that funny and show nutscaping on daytime television bahahaha love it

[@xrubyxlightx]

I have been loving the guests so far :D

[@kiashapillai4021]

Philippe Petit, what a legend! His sense of humour is as great as his fear of centipedes...

[@Wotsinyourbag3]

Fascinating guest, a real free spirit 🧖🏽‍♂️

[@renealbrechtsen9743]

This was by far the funniest episode ever xD

[@musicandloveismylive]

The "Consent" video is the best fucking thing ever!!!

[@linhcaucoi]

I love the interview. Best guest yet

[@kitmillionross]

Okay the guest he had on- vastly intelligent, hugely passionate, but didn’t get on with school- is the absolute perfect example of ADHD, and I love that he’s proving that following your passions outside of structures set by others can make for a joyful life

[@feralbluee]

one of THE best interviews i have ever seen. i love zes kind of franch sensibility. it’s earthy, sophisticated, witty, and friendly. i loved Maurice Chevalier as a kid, teenager and on from there. saw him on Broadway singing Valentina. sigh. more French suave you couldn’t get. 😊🌷🌱

[@rachel3472]

We had to watch the cup of tea is like consent thing in school...

[@acetrace4173]

This has to be the most hilarious episode of them all! Thank you Russell.😄😆🤣👍🤟

[@lei4eto]

The guest was incredible! :)))

[@blainephyfer]

my all time fav episode of RHGN!!! simply brilliant!

[@caspergraulund5436]

One of the best episodes of all the series!

[@EastAndTheBird]

You are absolutely now my favorite person. Thank you for making me smiley, lovey.

[@ashandalsmom]

Thanks from across the pond! Love Russell!!

[@kenglass1980]

Best interview EVER!

[@blazepoop]

Probably one of my favorite guests I've seen on here.

[@JaydevRaol]

Yeah same.

[@NeilSonOfNorbert]

this is my favorite guest so far, I want his part to be in a separate video.

[@meee6836]

I so love that Russell always pays tribute to the kids and in general to those that most need to hear they are important in this world. From Humour to Heart you gotta love this man. Keep making us laugh Russell this world needs more of that and you mate.

[@ghaidahesham3644]

I love that he always wears the same jeans

[@moburg4392]

my favorite guest omg hes brilliant ! a tightrope walker who is scared of spiders and snakes🤣and drinks single malt! loves it!

[@lovingiseasy-4342]

16:00 lmaoo I’ve never seen him laugh properly like that before, that’s rlly sweet lmao 😂 what a great interview!

[@jdguevara93]

I remember there was a kid at my middle school who suffered from the same thing as Mui. It was good to see though that he was able to make friends. Never got a chance to talk to him and kind of regret that I didn't.

[@thegirlbehindtheface3276]

+Jaime Guevara Hi this is Mui's dad. Please do check out our Facebook page: facebook.com/GirlBehindTheFace

[@ladylozamaylumiere3385]

"Don't make them drink tea!" and "In-Sanity" LOL....

[@bassmanplays7285]

12:20 "looks like a Granny's chin" I lost it at that point XD

[@xaidonzero5025]

The guest came to my school a few weeks ago :D. Hes a really awesome guy.

[@GeorgeBack02]

Best. Guest. Ever. 😂😂👌🏻

[@VoidAndCold]

they showed us that tea video in helth class last year. (I'm in Canada)

[@mrcaptainawesomeman3372]

the dancing cooking show is from sweden! I'm part sedish so imagine my delight to see Russell Howard bringing it up! :)

[@eventyraren]

+Mrcaptain AwesomeMan good that I am not the only Sweed here. also that was a morning show not a cooking show

[@mrcaptainawesomeman3372]

yeah, but I thought more people would know what clip I was referring to if i said cooking or baking show. Since a lot of the clips are from morning shows. But still sweden is great...sort of...in its own way i guess

[@BellaMusical]

Great show, Russell. Thank you so much!

[@akashragoobar5816]

I love how great the show it then the bits at the end hits your right in the feels.

[@theruckmas]

my fave episode thus far! I watched that documentary long ago and was completely mesmerized by Philip and his courage. Also, I'm afraid of things with more than 4 legs! He described it perfectly!!! Cheers :)

[@Kcdera]

Arguably your best episode yet, Russell. Keep up the good work!

[@neicocci]

Amazing episode!!!

[@sukerbole2463]

I love this episode!

[@KaiPonVisp]

The cooking show at the start, omg I do believe that's Swedish. 😂

[@catlover44.]

Just what we need in quarantine #lockdown2

[@kshirin0298]

okay this interview was the best and i cant

[@mellissarollins9915]

I had the great opportunity to see Philippe Petit in person. I will never forget him walk uphill on a wire. He was so young then. But so was I. He was so confident. This was in Manhattan when I was in college, and he was so good looking, heck he's still good looking. Thank you for having him on your show. It brought back many great memories. By the way this was back in 1969. Where does the time go?

[@els236]

what a brilliant episode :D and an excellent guest!

[@kinsleygreer]

Wow, I just discovered this show and love it! I am glad this is on youtube :) We get the awesomeness of John Oliver on American television, but we don't have Russell. This makes me miss living in England!

[@MarkSmithMCS]

+kinsleygreer I saw him do stand-up in DC a couple of months ago. Watch out for his next US tour.

[@prue3845]

Thank you so so much for uploading this too youtube. It sucks not being able to access TV from home :)

[@akaoniryuu4564]

the vine at 11 is my all time favourite 😂😂

[@casparrangarajan8016]

Great banter

This episode is the best of all! :D

[@debrafranklin4732]

Best guest ever !

[@ingeborg-anne]

[@betamanx]

this was brilliant

[@ThestuffthatSaralikes]

4:02 I heard “my girlfriends let the cat ate my baby.” I’m was like “OMG! why is this on HERE!?” So I had to go back and rewatch whilst reading the CC. MY CC said the same!!! Thank the CC gods Russell put captions in too!!

[@vlogzzierandomer]

You probably won't see this russell but this episode was just fantastic!

[@agnesemccrissican3335]

[@Kyrindelock1]

+erinial Hell yes * o *

[@MagickODaly]

That tea advert was originally put together by an artist and went viral on tumblr! xD Really hope she got credit for it! :L

[@damenwhelan3236]

I miss playing hide and seek in Ikea... the drawers under the beds were one of the best.

[@randomness1603]

Oh shit where I live we have an ikea store 351,000 sq ft large so we can play all we want and its so big it's near impossible for the security to find anyone lol

[@jennyabrahall6961]

the tea video was how he were taught about consent in our sex ed class in secondary

[@harryf_0141]

That is the best guest yet he he goes on and forgets what he’s on about so funny

[@incendere244]

Oh my god I love the guest.

[@graceclifton5282]

I love that Russel puts the full episod s on KZbin Thank you Jesus For bringing Russel Thank you jesus for bringing Russel 💖💖

[@opheliaismyname9180]

The tea video! God, that was hilarious. That's actually happened to me, in a very literal sense (but with water)

[@annnee6818]

I'm not even that iffy about heights but that tight rope walk makes me feel so ill every time. What a nutter! 😅

[@brennanblankenship7643]

I love this guy

[@anameenter9058]

Im from PuertoRico and im watching this

[@Nunuchan7]

It's incredible how positive Mui is, she is such a beautiful person

[@FishFreddy]

@1:05 Gheheh The Dutch TV stations always make fun of Van Gaal his English. It is pure comedy! If he ever writes a book I want it in self written English. Great show! Most brilliant line "Ahh mate if you want a scotch I give you a scotch". Perfect host.
