The Complete Rockbusters (Compilation with Karl Pilkington, Ricky Gervais & Steve Merchant) 

"This is the last Rockbusters ever." *still 2 hours left*

Ricky introduces the “last ever” Rockbusters at 1:09:22 of the video. There’s still 2 and a half hours to go 😂

I won Rockbusters one week in 2007 and still have my Ladder 49 DVD.

I wanted to use my laptop to post this but I Kenny Loggins.

"Right, we're NEVER doing Rockbusters again.." "...and now it's time for Rockbusters."

The jamaican fella goes through a lot of random shit, being on the Titanic, watching his countrymen swing fish around and once seeing a boat, weird innit? No wonder he is having nil demand about life

Karl: "So three cryptic clues." Ricky: "Well......"

I love how Karl just responds "cryptic" to all criticism.

"Cuz you're disqualified....from the comp"

1:16:35 Tourettes Trent Darby. Right, you're never doing Rockbusters again. You've blown it. You sneaked that one in.

11fucking years I’ve been listening to this or variations of it-and say this to you now,it is still the cure for any kind of depression.

"The Jamaican fella.." "Oh, he's back is he.." 😂😂

You know its going to be amazing when the Jamaican chap makes an appearance 😂

Karl subtly changing the Rockbusters clues into a Christmas theme is still one of my favorite things. “Put the letters on Clare’s desk…. Oh, and have a good Christmas.”

1:43:05 The trifecta of shite: Buy On Ferry Deli, a Meat Tree (and that) Christ, De Berg!

Who’s here in 2024?

That bloke who does sport on telly, he's got a little kid. Des's tiny child

“I had a vision of that Chinese flu” Karl is a bloody visionary

>when ricky says its the end of rockbusters but youre a fourth of the way in

2:18:44 Karl: "And erm... wh-where you take your dogs..." Ricky: "Oh f-" Karl: "...for a walk and that, or you might go there on a Sunday." Ricky: "What?" Karl: "Erm... sort of..." Ricky: "OH JESUS CHRIST"

I don't care what anyone says but Christ De Burg is genius.

1:46:14 I love how quickly he rushes past deli meat tree because he know's they will tear him to pieces

The delay and hesitation from Karl before he says Deli Meat Tree, and then rushes straight into the third one in an attemp to not give Ricky and Steve a chance to comment. Even Karl knew that one was reaching. @1:46:10

Say what you will , you have to admire Karl's imagination. I'd never link Kenny Logins with lil Scottish fellas not being able to log into their PC's

1:53:11 Lovely chuckle from Gervais. 2:30:33 And the anger. 2:31:43 We've had worse than that. 49:11 They've all come from the same institution. 1:43:20 Legendary 2:32:48 Mockery of prizes. 2:21:01 Karl admits to a flawed clue. 52:46 Weird innit? 1:52:17 Toe-knee Bin It 54:44 Castigation. 2:53:49 Yolk? Oh no. 2:25:53 Ger' off Gates 2:17:14 Shuttt upp! 55:28 More admittance from Karl of erroneocity. 56:35 Standards not met 2:18:01 A-licks Parks. 3:03:14 Works dunnit? 2:00:10 Cauli Osbourne 52:31 Urmm. 3:14:16 Does'nt work,mate. 2:27:06 Karl unhappy with feedback 44:51 That is shit 3:25:37 Can we west? 2:33:39 Jamaican fella returns. 2:39:16 Bulb talk 2:45:49 Karl in responsible producer mode. 15:30 Stigmata 50:07 XFM news, Gervais style 2:02:50 Karl messes up Teletubby clue 5:16 Karl lacks belief in the game that will become legendary. 13:26 Belief in the game returns. 17:45 Enquiries about Mousetrap. 2:21:49 Phil Collins clue leads to assessment of Karl's intelligence 2:27:58 Description of the game 2:59:44 Anecdotes to come 5:42 Steve ad libbing 2:23:18 Ricky's random Oscar Wilde quip 2:09:35 Karl's belief in the game remains 2:12:15 Karl's resilience in the face of critique 2:06:21 Review of bad prizes 1:46:23 Del Amitri 1:40:29 Karl's method revealed 2:34:58 Important 1:48:56 An alternative to Rockbusters? 2:28:38 Long clue 1:08:56 In Karl's head. 3:27:35 Ricky riffing 3:30:36 Worst one (according to Steve)? 2:31:56 What am I thinking? 1:05:30 brutal honesty.

I laugh every time I hear "the Jamaican fella..."

E.T's upset, whats up with him? Missy Elliott .....oh god.

"Oh, and, uh...have a good Christmas."

I love how Ricky and Steve had so much hope for this game at the start, and were genuinely impressed with some of the clues and answers. How times changed

"De Trout Spinners" Possibly the most hilarious line in broadcast history.

2:42:14 "I had a vision of that chinese flu" Karl's a fortune teller

2:17:14 - "SHHHHUT UUUUP!"

Even Karl warned us about Diddy.

I listen to these to fall asleep, apart from. This compilation which makes me laugh so hard the whole bed shakes and my wife gets annoyed with me... Freda pain...

Whilst every listen of this is a complete joy, I sincerely wish that I could erase my memory of it and enjoy it for the first time again. This, along with Monkey News, is genuinely one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard.

Her mans her mits

Love Karl's laugh at 44:52 after Ricky says his clue is shit, it's so off guard

'You're never doing this again. That's the end of Rockbusters.' Really now?

My favourite Rockbuster moments. 00:05:10 - "We won't do this again." 00:09:37 - "You're disqualified.......... .....from the comp." 00:21:51 - "He's making me laugh." 00:29:07 - "The top of them curtains are all wrecked; all the material's all worn." 00:42:56 - "Oh, and, err... have a good Christmas.." 00:46:57 - Ricky unsuccessfully disguises laughing as a cough. 01:04:41 - "That's early, innit? Thatsergigethat. A lot of people gotta wait eleven months before that's released... ...OR IS IT LARST CHRISTMAS'!" 01:13:29 - "A new album from The Yardbirds? Hmm..." 01:17:00 - "Ho Lee Fuk, Fuk, Ho Lee Fuk." 01:17:30 - "Rockbusters, that's what I'm thinking." 01:29:21 - "New odor." 01:33:30 - "D, D, D, D, D." 01:38:11 - "Well, don't say it like you know it or care." 01:38:31 - "What? N." 01:48:56 - Angry Karl. 02:08:38 - Jazz questions. 02:11:52 - "Weak observations poorly performed." 02:17:13 - "SHHTTERPPP!" 02:18:16 - "The place where you go to take ya' dog-a-walk," 02:19:51 - "𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐢𝐭." 02:21:50 - Phil Colon. 02:27:15 - "One of us is lying again." 02:28:37 - "Start again, Karl, I l-larfed half way through." 02:31:42 - "'We've had worse than that,' imagine that!" 02:33:00 "𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲. 𝐏𝐨𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐧." 02:35:42 - "NoI'mnotdoingitagainyou'vegottheansweritdoesn'tmatterletsmoveon." 02:46:41 - "All the muttering." 02:54:00 - "Yolk Ono." 2:55:04 - "I'll have a chicken."

'The only man that can outwit himself.' Hhahaha.

2:16:16 Karl “See hull, ‘Se-al’, that’s the way I would say it init” Ricky “Ok, that’s the end of Rock-Busters” Steve: “Unbelievable!” Ricky: “That’s the end of Rock-Busters!” Steve: “I can’t believe we even brought it back Rick..” Ricky: “Right? I’m serious that’s the end of Rock-Busters!” Next segment: Karl: “Right, are we doing Rock-Busters? Ricky: “Yeah come on...”

Even today...In 2020. This is still the best thing I have ever heard. Ricky’s reactions, Steve’s laugh, Karl’s dimness. It has everything

how wrong were steve and ricky.. people still listening in 2020

That bangles one killed me

Whenever you hear “There’s this Jamaican fella…” you know you’re in for a treat!

Ricky: Boy's Zone, that works perfectly! Steven: What is your answer then? (long dramatic pause) Karl:....bangles *Ricky and Steven laugh*

Click 1:06:03 for instant De Trout Spinners!

Her mans her mits is the most genius thing I have ever heard. When I heard it, I laughed for a minute. Way to go Karl.

42:30 "oh n av a good christmas" haha

I only just noticed the "De trout Spinners written on the card" lol

A Scottish man makes an error. answer- mystique

I normally listen to the Karl compilations to go to sleep but this one cracks me up too much lol

I'm only halfway through this video and they've said it's the last Rockbusters about 5 times haha

does anyone find karl's thing for born slippy utterly terrifying?

Deli Meat Tree n that.

I cried with laughter when he tried to make Metal Licker sound like Metallica

Ricky ‘this is the last rockbusters’ Gervais Steven ‘ladder 49’ Merchant Karl ‘the jamaican fella’ Pilkington

They were dealing out male sheep and I got the best one - Delta Goodram

“You’re confused, I don’t understand how YOU can be confused” *pause* “Yeah” *one of the more underrated Ricky laughs*

Buy on ferry 😂😂😂😂😂

the place where you go to take yer dog 'a walk, an' that.

2:54:42 "yep yep yep yep yep yep yep.."

“Ay get out me winehouse”.. Still classic 😂😂

I love how his go-to defense every time they call him on the really bad ones is "people got it". Imagine if a teacher or something used this excuse if the majority of the class didn't understand a quiz question.

That's not cryptic, it's shiiiit.

I listened to the full 4 hours. Thanks good sir.

He's got kids but he doesn't like women...whats going on there... PD... Puff Daddy. Hilarious

Take a shot every time Karl says "cryptic", Ricky mentions Bob Holness and Steve says "arbitary".

We are in lock down all over the world with coronavirus. This is a joy to listen to at the moment. Laughter is the best medicine. Cried with laughter all the way through. Thanks Karl, Ricky and Stephen

"De Trout Spinners" gets me every time

I love how he tries to brush over "deli meat tree"

They "kenny loggins" makes me laugh so much, just the addition of the 's' sounds so mad

Anyone got a timestamp for when Ricky says “that’s not cryptic, that’s shiitttttt”

'Tim and Sam... You know the rules lads'. ... 'Can you explain them to us?!' hahahah

Karl's "shut up" at 2:17:15 always gets me

24:45 that comedic timing :D "Bangles."

Unfortunately there isn’t a band called Aerocobbler!

Steve describing the prizes of tat every show just kills me I love it and how Karl groans in the background because He knows its tat

I am living in student accommodation and I’m sharing a room with 3 other people. It’s 2am and everyone is asleep. I am biting my pillow in desperation trying not to laugh out loud 😂😂

I love the long pause after Karl says "New Odour".... ..... "Whaddya mean?"

"Her man's Her mitts" is the greatest thing Karl has ever done. Far and away his pinnacle. Kudos to him 🥃

I don't know anyone called 'Jams Blunt' tho maaate...

I will die on the hill that the "Metallica" one works almost perfectly. One of the examples of Ricky and Steve not giving Karl the benefit of the doubt. Daniel Beddingfield is also genius and works.

The way Karl tries to pass off Buy On Ferry always makes me laugh.

The best moments are when you hear the clue and the initials and remember the answer but don't know why that's the right answer.

I love the pheonix nights 'divine comedy' one. Karl loves to get a little jab in about how he thinks its better than the office whenever he can lol

I love how they're still working out the rules with the first two contestants on the line.

Jonathan Ross mentioned a big bust-up in the world of clothe-makers. Initials T. S. ... 'Taylor Swift'! As in a 'tailors' wift'...like a wift(rift) between tailors. Tailors' wift. It works, don't worry about it.

"Buy On Ferry", "Deli Meat Tree" and "Christ! De Berg" is the best trio

The banter around Karl saying bulb at around 2:39:30 is probably my favorite part of this.

"I had a vision of that Chinese flu.." and the letter was C... did karl just predict covid 19?

Sorry it maybe Christmas but that is shit! Steve: Well a lot of people got it. Ricky: Well that annoys me even more! BANNADRAMA!

I think Suzane was writing some of these. Mainly the ones that make sense.

AERO-COBBLER WOULD HAVE WORKED - UNFORTUNATELY THERE ISN'T A BAND CALLED AERO-COBBLER ! ! ! !

I listen to this start to finish every year and I still can't get over the triple threat of Buy-On Ferry, Delimeattree and Christ! De Burg!

see hull - seal 😂😂😂

Idk whats funnier ricky laughing when he hears the clue or ricky losing his shit when he hears the answer
