Go join a drama club and get involved with live shows. You'll find that yes scripted fluffs happen all the time, but, no show is ever exactly the same every night due to millions of factors. I've had missing props, audience heckles, forgotten lines, missed cues just to name a few. Some actors struggle if everything isnt perfect but the best ones can improvise and drag everything back on track and that makes every show unique.
I’m actually surprised about the scripted fluffs part. I heard they happened in the Mrs Browns Boys Live shows but I don’t care enough about that show to watch - the missing props must be a nightmare!
@@KeanuRhys01 It can be for actors that struggle to improvise. I've seen some just lock up and stop functioning. but some of the best moments in a show can happen when something goes wrong. the best way to see it in action is to visit a small amature theatre group and watch the live show with the script in hand. They never match. :)
Whoo, he made number 2! Wait, that came out wrong. He made a number 2-- ah, fack it, you know what I meant. Really enjoyed this one - you seem a lot more confident, and the audio's a lot cleaner too; less peaking, less of a stark difference in volume between the main narration and your occasional sarky remarks. The Welsh representation joke was darkly funny. Good job overall!
@@twentywordsorlessYT thank you - in all fairness the number two joke matches the stupid juvenile humour of this show. Great to hear the audio isn’t shit this time :)
Actually Bottom was more of a spiritual successor to the Dangerous Brothers/Filthy Rich & Catflap, both of which had major portions taking place in their homes.
@@OriginalNiceButOdd good point actually! Ade was set on fire in dangerous brothers and now can’t sleep on one arm because he threw so many punches in Bottom
Often in comedy you'll do something unplanned on stage, say a line wrong, skip a bit or just completely flub the bit and you'll realise it actually works better than the thing you planned. So then the next time you'll do it the "wrong" way. I strongly suspect that these fluffs weren't in the script on the first day of the tour. They're either 100% genuine or they were genuine fluffs once and then got intentionally repeated.
This knowledge of scripted fluffs spoilt it a bit to be honest. I guess they did their job to make it more memorable and funny, but I rather not have known.

@@scalaw4thank you mate :) I’d kill to have seen a copy of Waiting for Godot with Rik and Ade…
I was actually just discussing The Young Ones recently, and now this gets recommended to me. Ey TH-cam, I know your tricks...
A sign of a great actor is the ability to blur the lines between real and fake.

Harry Hill often does a similar thing in live shows. If done well, it is still quite funny.
Wow, Taffy O'Jones talks about his favourite bottom bit!
That’s right you ignorant English wanker! 😂
@@KeanuRhys01 OH NO, TAFFY O'JONES.
@@fremenondesand3896you got any more EXPLODING CARRROOTTTTS?
This is very similar to what The Play That Goes Wrong became
