It's still funny

For those without knowledge of (now old) current events, what happened?

it's nothing to do with current events, it's mistaking ABBA's Greatest Hits instead of (PLO leader Mahmoud) Abbas's Greatest Hits (as in assassinations)

I think it's the fact that you don't see the lasagne ending coming. Agreed it's a wonderfully comedic telling of the tale though.

Isn't it one of his classic scrapes?!

@@annother3350 It is, yes.

"don't look their children in the eyes" Gets me every time.

Nish is wonderful.

I like Nish as well. People always complain that he overuses his ethnicity as a topic for jokes, but most comedians that possess a niche (be it race, gender, disability or whatever) use it for material, and I've always thought him and Romesh do it really well. People just like to moan I guess.

So, you're telling me that Nish possesses a niche?

I must admit he's grown on me.

Fair enough, personally I think he drains the energy from the room and they could use that spot for a much better comedian

Basically, the little shit's lucky he's Dara's best friend

yeah you not often here Milton getting controversial, it is always funny when he does.

He's just a big baby!

Yepp, that one was good :-)

I didnt get that one

@@alomy9863 Really? I don't know much about Mahmoud Abbas, but everything you need is there in the joke. Unless you don't know Abba?

I was just leaning down to grab a bottle of whater when that one hit. Felt like I had cracked a rib :D

I don't know if it fit the category, though. I've read it in many novels tagged "romance"........

I love how many times he tried to go forward before saying that. He was determined to get that one out lol

His hands are huge.

I would mean it entirely sexually.

Oh I know that trick. U say 20 pounds, but it turns out that u really mean 20 poundings.

There was nothing sexual in what you said. What are you on about?

@@engasal You see nothing sexual in someone else "telling" them "bedtime stories"? You sweet summer child.

I agree! He is a weirdly tilted human!

I much prefer Acaster over Milton

Yep no arguments here. He is a breath of fresh air on panels shows these days.

couldn't agree more

Big Milton fan here (and from across the pond no less), and Acaster is deffo one of my favorite newer talent showing up on the panel shows =)

I didn’t get the joke.

You have to have seen the movie to get it, or at least have heard about the scene. In the film, Marlon Brando's character forcibly sodomizes Maria Schneider's character while using butter as the lubricant. It's the most infamous scene in the film. Gary was implying that the French were so busy recreating that scene that they ran the whole country completely out of butter.

Sometimes I get a little tired of Gary, but he's QUICK, man. He's scary quick.

Nullifidian hear about it. Got it now.

Thanks, I couldn't hear what he said

Emma Cassidy he already does

I quite like Miles Jupp

It was so spot on 😂

Another St. Louisan!

Way cool! Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to you too!

care to play the captain and explain it to a clueless viewer?

@@iasonkostellenos8341 there's a movie from the 70's called Last Tango In Paris, in which there's a pretty infamous scene where one of the characters is raped; and butter is used as a lubricant.

wow wish I hadn't gotten that explanation! yeah LOL rape is hilarious, especially when it's an actual rape of the actor! ...

with outrage you mean? oh good, I'm sure it's not that you find jokes about rape and the actual sexual assault of a 19yo actor at the behest of the director so hilarious...

His surname is an anagram of Nairobi. As Stephen fry texted him once. O briain not o brien.

turns out you can be young and still aware of who prince is.

I didn't get the joke

ABBA's Greatest Hits / (PLO leader Mahmoud) Abbas's Greatest Hits (as in assassinations)

Some people just can't be pleased . It's different "jokes" for different folks.

Irish Vegan he's even a gaeilgóir it makes no sense

I think he finally got the operation and that's Dara's head on Posh Spice's body.

Dara said Aldi.

They're available in America too, shop around

or even a dessert!

It's called risalamande (ris-ala-mand). Basically, it's a rice cooked on milk with chopped almonds on top. Served at room temperature with warm cherry sauce on top. And than one whole almond in one of them. I guess they all found almonds cos they all had chopped ones, but not the whole one. I find it overrated, it's not bad but I wouldn't make a fuss about it.

Well in my part of Norway that certainly isn't the tradition. Still, I guess some people have it in their Rice Pudding Dessert instead of their Porridge dinner.

In San Francisco it's called risaroni.

So true. It is an almond in the porridge. They mixed it up with the dessert (where you don't win anything)

Det er fullstending nytt for meg. hvor i Norge bytter man om på disse to rettene?

To be fair, many Brits who are on a show like this for the first time also seem a little uncomfortable. Most people you see here have been on this show many times and probably other panel shows with many of the same people too. It can take a few goes to settle in. Also, if an Aussie is on then they are probably in the middle of an English tour so they are likely not inclined to spend too much time writing material for a show like this and they may also not be quite so up-to-date with British and European news. Actually, just checked and it appears that Felicity Ward is one of those Aussie comedians who spends half the year in Britain, so some of my points above probably don't apply quite as much as I first thought.

@@wunnell English not British... she spends most of her time in England because her husband is English not British for fucks sake...

"Cause of Last Tango in Paris." The film contains a scene with an interesting use for butter...

I've got tickets to see him in September and I can't wait!

he just has the face for it :P

it was really (PLO leader Mahmoud) Abbas's Greatest Hits (as in assassinations)

NUTS"

Wut? I meet muslims every day and I've never been raped.

Valdagast also, it's a sad thing you have to see them daily. Poor Sweden, such a mess now...

Pep thought he was, too.

Last Tango in Paris, its a reference to a scene involving sodomy and butter, the implications are the Parisians were busy recreating the scene and ran out of butter.
