ben as an elder makes me question everything about my sexuality, and ben as sue makes me question everything about my gender

[@sweetpumpkin6710]

ben as ben makes me question everything 💀

[@jinxzdream]

Literally just Ben makes me question myself

[@alexw.7097]

It's not fair that he looks incredible in everything, as a man or a woman, lmfao 😂

[@fabulouschild2005]

OH SHUT UP SUE 😂

[@meat-n-bones0]

Literally!!!! 😂😭💖💖💖

[@avakelly7008]

I'm convinced they haven't actually worked a day in their lives and this is all for shids and giggles

[@ava8340]

ironically they actually talked about how hard work horrible histories was, because they had to do so much material and they ran out of ideas immediately. and that’s why they became such good friends and stayed together

[@oliviadaly4795]

​@- ava - aww. I'm glad they did run out of material then in a way (but they didn't write the scripts etc? Apart from Larry who was a writer for HH anyway and then got called in to act cos no one would do Bob Hale 😂) as in HH, Yonderland and Ghosts, they have brought me so much joy

[@raeganelaine]

I love how literally all of mat’s characters put up their fists the same way when getting ready to fight

[@alexw.7097]

Yes, I pointed this out to my parents the other day while watching Ghosts! Apparently that's just his go-to fighting style 😂

[@katierandall9191]

I don't know why it always amuses me so much that Pachacuti has a northern accent 😆

"There was an idea, the BBC knows this, called the Idiot Initiative. The idea was to bring together a group of remarkable idiots, to see if they could become something more. See if they could work together when we needed them, to make the jokes that we never could."

MARVEL AND THE SIX IDIOT YESSS

[@julianb9548]

These six, and their sketches and catchphrases, have taken over my wife’s life (not joking). She quotes so many of their lines in a day and has recently memorised Ben’s “Sue” talking about fixing bayonets!! Unfortunately she needs somebody to play off so she has me saying lines too!!! Somebody help me……!!!

[@EricaNernie]

I feel the same. The way those lines are delivered..jut want to copy them ++. But need a comedy foil.

[@sailorjess2893]

She is the perfect wife, and u are a supportive spouse 👏👏 this is truly The way to live

5:04 IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THIS MAN HAS EVER LOOKED DON'T EVEN TRY TO CHANGE MY MIND 😍😍

[@oliviadaly4795]

Ben, ask the ghosts Q&A, Ep 2 (I think) Mat is gorgeous (more recent pics I've seen with him he's greying a bit, but then he's in his early 40s. In Bill he was 35) and has a Babyface but Ben, going grey really really suits him (especially when lockdown Zooms gave him long hair ❤) he ages like a fine Parmesan 😂

[@rowanaboat4523]

I haven’t seen a compilation with all their shows in it before, definitely my favourite so far. I love this group

[@izzycare1184]

Ben Willbond is really out here making me question being a lesbian 😂 Edit: 1 year later, I’m not a lesbian I’m abro 😂😭

[@luzr.b.9188]

I've been wondering... why do Larry and Jim look so good in women's clothes?

[@LH-kr4od]

Because human beings evolved way before clothes were invented.

[@hannahsmith4007]

I’m so gay for Larry as a woman 😅

[@cheeezstix]

Questioning my whole childhood after seeing some of these x

ah that’s such a great clip!! one of the first that made me realise the hilarity of this bunch, but there’s just so many parts i couldn’t fit them all in! great line though

[@nonyby7419]

From what show is the scene at 4:03 from?

1:28 is this from yonderland?

[@dearmymartha5326]

yea it’s a trailer for one of the seasons i’m sure :)

[@ava8340]

i love the queer fanbase of the 6 idiots. like most of the comments here are “x made me question my sexuality” or “y made me realise i was trans” and it’s amazing

[@alexw.7097]

Not my Pan ass wanting to track down the whole Cake Bake bit just because I think Ben looks gorgeous as a woman and I want more 😅

[@avaraytrujillo859]

The joke at 5:49...I hate to ask but what does he mean by "I haven't had breakfast yet,"?

[@windjammin99]

Simon's "elder" character will use any excuse to be nude. It's implied he's naked there when he tosses his robe.

[@niseplank4527]

Simon is very clothing averse.

[@oliviadaly4795]

It's cos Ben says 'at ease' and Simon takes it too literally, stripping off cos that's what his character is like, and nobody wants to wee naked dangly bits first thing in the morning 😂

Afraid you’ll have to splash out for Sky TV for that, but it’s definitely worth getting for the 3 series of Yonderland.
