I frequently do that with my daughter, my dad and my best friend. When we both see the joke coming way before the various parts have intersected to make it funny. It’s the fact that our humour is so tuned to one another, the realization that we are all on exactly the same wavelength is even funnier than the joke to come and silent belly laughs with tears flowing down cheeks is the inevitable result. It’s magical to share that with someone. My absolute favorite thing.
RFC3514 Detecting mild sarcasm. I meant in regards to their personalities. On screen its often portrayed the other way in their sketches that David plays the more refined, solid characters and Robert the more common, flaily characters. Green clarinet man being a fine example.
***** - Well, you could just as easily have mentioned the Hennimore sketches, where Robert is the everyman and David is the crazy boss, or the historian sketches where Robert plays the serious director and David plays the (literally) very flaily presenter. And those aren't their _personalities_, anyway, they're characters. If you watch them in interviews (as themselves), Rob is generally the "quieter" of the two.
Haven't you ever had a funny idea or come up with a funny joke and laughed to yourself about it? Then when you tell the next people, they might find it funny but you've sort of laughed it out. This is sort of the case with their show. They probably rehearse a bit before the takes and then there will likely be takes where they lose it and have to start over.
Sadly he used his reach to voice some transphobic stuff and has taken being "gender critical" as his hill to die on, but to a lesser degree than J K Rowling and Graham Lineham.
@@SammyC27 the idea of someone forcing anyone to pee without their consent, especially a celebrity like Tom Cruise, is amusing. What is also kind of amusing is how the panel conversation somehow lead down that weird road XD
All I can imagine is Tom Cruise on the toilet, reacting exactly the same way as Greg Davies in his Graham Norton story where he accidentally ends up wearing his mother's knickers in a school: *"Oh God, oh no! You loser, this is such a low point!"*
I love it when Rob and David just end up in random conversations between the two of them. I remember there was another programme David was presenting (called The Bubble) where they were chatting to each other and completely blanking Miranda Hart and Shappi Khorsandi even though they were there as well as David and Rob.
This happened to me last night. I found something insanely funny and nobody else really got it. I cried with laughter. I enjoyed it even more because my buddies didn’t have a clue what was going on.
That's what I thought, I'm really not sure if he crying with laughter, the tears came on rather quickly :\ although I don't know feelings what "Tom Cruise having a wee without consent" could bring on!
Well he's laughing his ass off and trying his best to contain it. Tends to happen to me sometimes, you just laugh and cry and break down as a total incoherent mess and everyone looks at you mildly amused
You mean you don't know the whole urine backstory between Webb and Cruise? I for one applaud Webb's bravery here and think it could be genuinely helpful to other people who have wee trauma with Tom Cruise.
It's not really well known, but David Mitchell can make shadowclones of himself. It's really weird and he doesn't use it all that much except to serve as an audience member for his own shows, you know, test the experience from the crowd. ...and a series of SAS airdrops over central asia in 2011 but those files are classified.
You can see that their long partnership is based on the joy they get from making each other laugh. I hope Robert's in robust good health these days, wish we could see him more.
OMG as soon as I see Mitchell and Webb I just crack up cos I know something hilariously funny is coming!! lol. Thank you for all the memories guys, hopefully more to come!
We’ve all been there, you can’t breath cos something has killed you yet people around aren’t quite sure what has done ya!!! Yet, they are cracking up cos you are........it’s one of life’s great gifts it truly is.
Wish they did more That Mitchell & Webb look. But it would take away from the legendary final sketch they did. It truly is worthy of standing alongside Blackadder Goes Forth Finale for its emotional impact
This took me a second to get and I did the same hand gestures because I was laughing and thinking wtf 😂 Mitchell and Webb are just amazing even when they're not a duo
Nineteen Seventy7 yep, he somehow believed only a Scientologist could help someone injured on the roadside, I suppose shooting space waves from your mind is better than EMT service, somehow.
Haha this is from that insane Tom cruise scientology interview where goes on about how as scientologists they're special and when they see someone in a bad situation only they can help. So they have to. Weeing without consent isn't that much weirder.
I was already in fits of laughter at other comments… and then upon readings yours it made me stopped laughing. I sincerely hope you understand. Fuck it I’ll spell it out, your not funny.
