Still the best sketch on comic relief.

Best ever comic relief sketch

[@Deontjie]

Now that half of Africa is in the UK.

[@montgomery77]

@@Deontjie 2.5% of the UK population is either African or of recent African descent (to obviously factor out the fact we all come from Africa originally). So just slightly under the 50% you claim. Facts > Feelings?

[@Deontjie]

​@@montgomery77Fact versus a tongue-in-cheek saying? Yep, Sterkstroom here in the Freestate is the cradle of humankind. So all humans do descent from Africa. Is the main line of reasoning. If you do not follow the Java man and the Neanderthal separate lines of evolvement.

2:20 Ricky steals Karl's injection joke.

[@zanderman004]

I've noticed he steals a lot of Pilkington's jokes to be fair. Still appreciate Ricky though.

[@MinifigureMultiverse]

Well, Karl wasn’t joking he was just making a point but yeah. Most of his material is recycled Karl comments, observations or opinions.

[@MinifigureMultiverse]

@@abcxyz53 as someone who has listened to every single episode of XFM multiple times I can assure you of 2 things. 1. Karl is funny 2. It isn't always on purpose 3. His ideas and theories and stories are mostly genuine. For example, He really didn't understand why doctors can't teach you to give yourself a prostate exam, he doesn't understand the dating complexities of stick insects and he thinks Chimps are our cousins in the literal sense 😂 4. Ricky has admitted several times he loves and re-uses Karl's stupid theories because he is a vein of pure comedy gold idiocy. 5. I can't count.

[@EthdanTV]

The Brits stole 43 trillion dollars worth of assets from India alone. We did a lot of damage all over the world, including Palestine when we destroyed the Ottomans and then offered land to European Jews so that they'd help with WW1. Just saying.

[@Flypidge]

@@ComeJesusChrist "whole nonsense" what does that even mean?

[@ComeJesusChrist]

@@Flypidge No one cares about the poor in any country, that includes the western NGOs and the African partners, who simply consume much of the ridiculously low percentage that gets through the system. This emotional hoax and sob stories are maintaining a corrupt system and are offensive. Africa’s fine, leave it alone, much of the problems are caused by the West maintaining influence and control through these deceitful fairytales. Nations also need to take some responsibility for their own governments. The West is maintaining corruption, but locals tolerate it. The last local person I knew from Kenya had a compound, large vehicles and more land that I can imagine owning anywhere. I don’t wish to support upper-middle class or wealthy and well-connected NGO executives and people doing their cushy jobs in these organisations.
