The best of Hignfy series 51

Favorite moments from series 51. This was first broadcasted in the spring of 2016.

[@helenangilley9436]

I love it when Ian's facade cracks and you can feel his genuine resentment bubbling out.

[@lindahart6049]

Thanks, str1tsa, for your dedication to keeping us sane.

[@BubbaYoga]

Giles is always so freaking funny even though I am diammetrically opposed to nearly all of his political beliefs he always has me in stitches.

[@gailmackinnon7328]

Brilliant way to start the day. It's 8 am in West Australia, the sun is fighting it's way through the rain clouds, we're still Covid-free, and it's some sort of public holiday. What more could anyone need? The best of series 52 perhaps...

[@mikekilkelly2138]

for some reason I find it hilarious whenever frankie says wolf, it rarely comes up as a word from him yet I always laugh

Took me a bit. But I finally figured out what Hignfy means.

What couple were they speaking about at the start of episode 2?

[@MaxTilley]

Ran to the comments to find out! No Scot’s on here??

[@h-Qalziel]

Sorry, this is very late, but after a lot of rummaging around the internet, I believe the couple was David Furnish and Elton John.

[@rossmurray6849]

Can anyone explain to me why The Communards (Jimmy Somerville & Richard Coles) dedicated a song on the sleeve notes of their first album to Margaret Thatcher??? This was in 1986, four years before her stint as PM ended.

[@annother3350]

Some people liked her

[@ladyflimflam]

As Richard Coles says, they were undertaking a radical project of bringing down the Tory government via the medium of pop music.

[@dewaynewoods4788]

Confession: I started watching this show because the first episode I accidentally came across had Victoria Mitchell as the host, and I found her incredibly sexy. I decided that day to find everything she's ever done, and then I discovered the brilliance of the show as well as others like WILTY, MTW, Taskmaster, and others. I've been hooked ever since.

[@kettle_of_chris]

I think the host in EP01 is one of the better, even one of the best hosts this show has had. Of the men that is...I'm a regular bloke as they say so may favorite is Kirsty.....I can't even miss-spell her name without feeling like a 13yr old.

Oh yeah it would be embarrassing for people to think you're clueless and immature wouldn't it.

31:21 apt that after Brexit all of my friends moved abroad to Canada and Australia and those that stayed in the UK married foreign women in their EU countries to get EU citizenship.

[@annother3350]

More fool them!!

[@dontpanic1812]

My favorite thing about political criticism these days is how it rarely ever acknowledges one's own side's short-comings. Drives me nuts. The debate would have so much more meaning and credibility, be so much more productive in informing voters, if we just admitted we were human. Doing it the way we've been just seems to always cast a person in the light of a liar, endlessly providing fodder for the opposing side-- a convenient excuse for evading subjects, ensuring they don't actually get discussed. Hence, wonderful shows like HIGNFY. (There. Tied it in so it wasn't so off-topic. Yay. Told you I was nuts.)

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

After more than a decade of one party, this makes no damn sense. And in England, he ideology of the MPs is so thorough going, policy isn’t even the focus. This is the sort of crap Tory apologists Allyson come out with.

[@Yankee7000]

Colin Cleveland As good as can be, thank God. No. And yes. If I needed anything the Brit would the last person I would ask: here is an economy that relies so much on the 2 trillion of suspect money that is laundered through its economy that when revealed, hardly a peep from the parliament, the “critical” media, the hoi polloi. This is a nation that is mastered a new colonialism: that of harboring thieves and thugs from poor countries and more importantly their money. Yet they wag their fingers hitherto inserted in their backsides and they lick them and then have the audacity to point said same fingers at others for being corrupt. No thank you. Get over it.

[@Yankee7000]

You know I have the notification for your reply as well as the email. That you didn’t have the courage to respond the content of my remark instead resorting to psychobabble and then deleted it speaks volumes. Have the courage of your convictions you clown. PS: “getting your fingers out” is an age old British saying which you somehow turned into some nonsense, which if true surely means that coprophilia and anal fixations are standard British behavior having made it into the standard language. Oh and every time you think of WWII do get on your knees and thank the Yankees for stopping German becoming your mother tongue. That there is an oddity in the White House is of little consequence to you: that clown prime minister of yours is no great shakes. Worry about him.

[@Yankee7000]

Colin Cleveland sad. Blabbering some psycho babble on the internet. Makes you feel a big man eh? Ask an adult what? That you deleted your response? Because you haven’t read my response have ya? It contains the same word you used and is available. And speaking of anal, obsessive much???? Still haven’t responded to the content of my original post. Instead continuing with the same nonsense. And still no thank you America for keeping English as Britain’s mother tongue instead of German. Ingrate. Grow up. Carry on.

Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
