The best of Hignfy series 63

Favorite moments from series 63. It was originally aired on the BBC during spring 2022

[@philipweaver9290]

Having watched hignfy for many years, now running for over 30 years, its about time that Ian Hislop and Paul Merton received an accolade for services to British entertainment.

[@kvman6410]

Service to journalism and entertainment.....for keeping it Real!

[@Caroleonus]

Absolutely! This show has been going with both of them longer than I've been alive, and I'm 31

[@charleysmith2205]

They're both very funny and intelligent in their own way. And no one is free from their well read criticism. And damn right too, more people from every aisle need draging to the ground and be held accountable. I think they both deserve recognition, however, I have a feeling they'd reject it, and good on them. I still think the Angus leaving show was the best I've seen, but they still keep doing it week in.

[@josephhaywood9238]

They'd probably refuse it

[@a.j.carter8975]

❤the amount of dirt on the "great and good" that I.H. has sequestered. It's the only reason he's still alive....(I'm looking at you MI5). And if anyone f**KS with (national treasure) P.M. I WILL FIND YOU .

[@Vic-xg2kc]

42:02 That wonky line is just brilliant. If that's not considered a work of amusing art I don't know what is.

[@rutherhood5961]

This is the best show on TV, the last place where you can actually get unrestricted journalism

I think "Last Week Tonight" is a tad better for both news and laughs.

Clive Myrie has been a great find as an HIGNFY host

[@vidurbutalia2130]

One of the very specific cases where you essentially can't ever be sued for libel is if you're a sitting MP and you shout it out in the middle of a debate in the house of commons...

I’ve been going through all of these compilations you’ve made. They’re fucking excellent. Thank you!

[@HigherChannel]

Mel G is simply the best presenter on this show. She is so funny and cool. Please bring her back! She was also the best act and funniest moment of Eurovision 2023.

[@usercarefree44]

You are deluded...Victoria Coren Mitchell runs rings round Mel and her buck teeth.

[@dralfredcarroll9567]

Hasn’t she reverted back to the name Mel B now?

[@GenericGooner]

Jokes aside, that was such a great definition of PayPal Paul made for Ian. If you are completely computer illiterate that sums up what it is.

[@fiskrond9212]

Mel Giedroyc is priceless in this.. 😆

[@anonUK]

Sue Perkins is a much better host, as is Jo Brand.

[@RandomPlayIist]

@@anonUK Why do you feel the need to pit women hosts against each other? That person didn't say Mel Giedroyc was the best host so I don't understand why you even brought them up. Such nonsense.

[@RyanKeane9]

Yeh she cracks me up😊

[@usercarefree44]

She is very annoying and attention seeking.

[@willhunt6897]

She’s priceless in everything she appears on! Love Mel; she’s like one of us that’s infiltrated the world of celebrity 😂

[@Emmathelady]

9:03 I can see why she and David Mitchell are married to each other. 😂😂

[@TERMINATIONBLISS08]

I like how Ian makes a comment about the media remarking on outfits (35:25) and saying that nobody makes mention of his outfits. As a fan of many HIGNFY clips, I can confirm that is false. The hat and briefcase combo is inspired. I genuinely think men should dress more like him. Bring back men wearing suits and hats!

[@zechbates9376]

22:06 I love Ian

42:17 what's the "splashing out on a tractor" joke a reference to?

[@delbongo]

Hamish McWerter was rumoured to be noncing his mother, after that, everyone piled on Mr. nck and it was bedlam

[@ThePsiclone]

an MP (Neil Parish) caught watching porn in the Commons Chamber, claiming he was watching videos of tractors. Henceforth known as the "tractor porn MP". I'm sure you can join the dots between "porn" and "splashing out" for yourself ;-)

[@rikparkinson2501]

There was an MP who was forced to resign after being caught watching porn twice in the house of commons. His excuse was that he had been looking for tractor equipment for his farm and accidentally watched the porn.

[@tomdrums4691]

Neil parish the Tory MP for Tiverton and Honiton was caught watching porn in parliament and his excuse was that he was looking for a tractor. He later resigned. Amusing side note. In the following election the new Tory MP had a mental breakdown and locked herself in a hall after being the first tory to ever lose that constituency.
