James talks about becoming chess grand master, penguins, Pierce Morgan and more AND he jumps a fence. I apologize if the edit is a bit clunkier than usual, I couldn't do it on my own PC and so had to use another program.
All of James’ jokes from his appearance on The Last Leg on 31st of December 2020
Check out his standup-show(s), Repertoire, on Netflix, they're absolutely hilarious.
Check out The Last Leg on Channel 4, too: www.channel4.com/programmes/t...

Glad that you pointed it out! You can't usually read their signatures in the beginning, so he probably thought that only Josh would notice. They do have a TV show together. I think it's on Dave, but I'm not sure. Edit: Ok so I should have listened to the rest of the video. The only thing that I left out was the name of the show! Lol

How is it he can manage to look like he's taking the piss while actually making some really decent arguments. Like the Piers Morgan thing, he's clearly not actually being mean to Lorraine cause he's making jokes about Penguins and Superman but he also manages to make some really good points about his stance on Piers Morgan and how just because he did something right, doesn't mean he's suddenly a hero.

@cazkiwinz4300 2 жыл бұрын

He’s just brilliant at the deadpan sarcasm, some people don’t get it (those people are dumb and don’t have a sense of humour!) but I thought Lorraine took it well

@liamaldensmith1779 Жыл бұрын

Yeah, I was really impressed with this. Whenever relatively trusted figures normalize some psychotic media villain because they did one good thing, you start hearing people around you making the same arguments and then suddenly it's fine for Boebert to pester Jewish tourists about doing "reconnaissance."

oh? I thought they struck a good balance, with James' v good point being heard but also all working to diffuse the tension (incl. James) so they could make a good, relatively light entertainment show. I mean, they had to make some jokes about it, his initial reaction was pretty funny/extreme

So much for the social distancing diring the pub quiz part. Why bother to keep people apart when your going to shove them all within inches of each other? Also they made them all go sit in each other's spots, presumably without sanitizing them in between, although this is abbreviated so maybe they did, but again why bother if they are going to cram them all together at the end? Having written all that it has no relation to the awesome quality of the show; just that they don't seem to understand the whole point of social distancing. Is the UK no longer supposed to social distance? I hope that's the case and they've all been vaccinated or somehow completely rid themselves of the virus!
