The Garnier sketch was on another level

[@markreynolds1436]

I can't help hearing the word Laboratoire without cracking up.

[@mickys8065]

it was nice to see David wearing causal clothing on set.

[@patagualianmostly7437]

I thought it was quite thought provoking .....all that money wasted on silly shampoo research....... But then I wear "The Secret" by Antonio Banderas..... (and Head and Shoulders does fer me......Two bottles in the shower? Not me boyo.)

[@Cheeseanonioncrisps]

The look on Robert's face when she says the 'I don't know what you want anymore!" line is priceless!

[@alanwakeish]

It's good that we have the quiz broadcast, at least it takes our minds off them and not always thinking of them trying to get in and eat us. Always remain indoors.

[@ScottCreley]

Oh if you only knew, my past bro.

[@rumpelpumpel7687]

was the solution for the quiz "the event" or did i miss some hints on what was on the outside? i didnt really get what was going on there (english is my third learned language). can somebody explain pls?

[@theradgegadgie6352]

@@rumpelpumpel7687 The Quiz Broadcast is a satire of post-cataclysm stories. "The Event" is just the unexplained cause of it.

what made me laugh was the side gag that the game show food prize was the Didlidi snacks from earlier

[@FringePrincess]

I can’t believe I never noticed that! 🤭😆

[@olajerz]

The Caesar sketch is my favorite sketch of all times! No matter how many times I watch it it makes me roll with laughter:) It's one of the cleverest and best acted pieces of comedy I've ever watched. Caesar is listening... I thought you were Caesar? No. LOL. the look on Webb's face when he says "no" is just priceless:)

[@avegaplata]

and much better on radio!

[@krashd]

The Two Ronnies would be proud to see a sketch like that, a lot of their comedy was heavily dialogue-oriented. "Thinking Man's comedy" to use a now dated and un-PC term.

[@Schmidtelpunkt]

That one and the "Who let the Dog's out" are an amazing ballet of words. It is almost like listening to music.

[@Curt_Sampson]

@@avegaplata I agree; the radio version was a bit better. Particularly in the device David uses to make the sound when Caesar gets it wrong: in the radio version it was a weird sort of duck-like quack, rather than a recorder or whatever that was.

[@zapkvr0101]

​@@krashdwhy do the right wing nutcases trot out the sneering "pc" when they dont understand something?

When you're that good at screwing people over...

[@howdj]

No man has the gall to charge the world's sex champion for anything

[@stumbling]

The opening dialogue just oozes Fry and Laurie -- as does a lot of their humour. :D

[@groznybaranek]

Yep. They’re not as good as the coat hanger for Mrs Thatcher bit though

[@SKOMonster]

scientific sketch seems so truthful to me that it chills more than tickles...

[@chriskaprys]

In the angry couple sketch, the venom in the woman’s eyes is.. incredible! Terrific acting 👌

[@briancrawford8751]

Well, they're married in real life.

[@seriousbees]

15:50 love how david mitchell delivers the ham-fisted drama in that scene entirely, but the last line in particlar cracks me up "but i cant... because im SHIT"

[@deyesed]

The layers in that sketch are just *chef's kiss*

[@_s_9920]

21:50 The new English Fallout game is looking good!

[@tubeyhamster]

OMG the jail/interpreter sketch is freaking hysterical. Webb looks like Harpo Marx.

[@lumpythebored]

Sad the BBC took their advice.

[@philipocarroll]

But then we got Peep Show from Channel 4

Seriously though, the "Third Person" bit is pure genius!

[@howdj]

It's the first person bit

[@LeighDWYC]

Mitchell's Yorkshire accent is spot on!!

[@ClusterFoxtrot]

The resemblance to 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie' is absolutely incredible. Mitchell to Fry and Webb to Laurie, the opening in the studio and even that sketch reminds me of their Shoe Shop sketch a bit. Excellent stuff.

[@Ron-Ayres]

Love the happy family sketch. Just another love filled day.

[@Loctorak]

This is _MY LABORATOIRE_ !!

[@Quantris]

"pacifically bans physical violence" is actually quite a clever (and correct) pun

[@Dilkingt0nne]

Oh yes that’s quite good I missed that

[@AnnaSenPrice]

This sketch never gets old, I’m in stitches every time

[@MoseyOnout]

I've seen a lot of QI and WILTY and David definitely engages with those shows regarding his own creative thought process. For instance when he discusses the bleak future of television personalities after a nuclear war and how he would rather die than have to wait for humanity to regain an equilibrium with his current role as a team captain on would I lie to you.

[@AntarcticEspionage]

Also the Caesar sketch reminded me of Abbott and Costello's "Who's on First." Fantastic. =D

[@Loctorak]

Seems it was very much inspired by that one. An absolute classic. Hoo's on first! Well that's what I'm askin ya! And I'm telling you - Hoo is on first! Well I don't know yet, you won't tell me...

[@mantabond]

It's even much better on the radio 4 version which preceded it.

[@pinkmusiicluva]

Thanks so much for the upload! Never in my life did I think I'd hear David Mitchell say "Garnier Fructis" Lol.

[@deandupont5503]

The only "sex trophy" I've ever won involved a trip to the clinic.

[@beatrute2677]

[@shuttershocker]

That last sketch is one of the most perfect things I have ever had the pleasure of watching.

[@greebj]

*most* perfect? ... you just used a comparative on an absolute, binary concept... *bang*

[@nurichbinreel4782]

24:14 The way he says "I need an answer" fucking kills me. Its the perfect mix out of sleazy showman and the fact that he finds it hillarious.

[@stsk7]

that Caesar sketch was brilliant!

[@greebj]

Given my Latin teacher used the "Romanes eunt domus" scene as an excuse to screen Life of Brian in class for a week, I suppose he now shows the entire season of this show as education on the etymology of 'ignoramus'

[@darrenstopper1806]

Plus sex champion pays in favours

[@tigerboy1966]

The Hennimore sketch is very, very close to a Viz cartoon which I think was called Helpful Herbert.

[@wrjalmond]

As well as the acronym problem, Robert's character also says, 'will you stop shooting people for saying things wrong?' He thus uses an adjective rather than an adverb - it should be 'wrongly' or 'incorrectly' - David fails to punish him.

[@lovelyjubbly7226]

Actually 'Wrong' can come as an adverb

[@crieverytim]

sorry, you're wrongly.

[@usvalve]

The misuse of adjectives as adverbs has been going on for a long time - wrong/wrongly, quick/quickly (Tony Hancock in the 1950s) and good/well (Paul McCartney in 1973). Still, that's no excuse for not shooting the miscreants with a handgun.

[@SineN0mine3]

Wrongly would have been right, but wrong is also right. If he'd said "will you stop shooting people for wrong saying things" that would definitely be wrong and should always be wrongly if you want to be rightly.

[@AlisonChism]

I very much enjoy this. Nice of @MrCassavious to make the effort. Mitchell and Webb carry that particular ability that Cambridge Footlighters seem to have. Totally fresh, yet somewhat familiar, That Mitchell and Webb Look is an astute and delightful half-hour.

[@JessieJ93]

No doubt. 5:40 is THE BEST SKETCH in the entire video!!!!! HILARIOUS!
