Chris Morris splits my mind from end to end with his wit, subtle sarcastic words. Chris Morris is a pure genius. Where is this type of comedy TV in 2018?

@MrVinushka Thank you =] It was amusing that Linehan used Cradle in the sitcom IT Crowd =P Bigger fan in my earlier teens but I still appreciate their early work.
"The look of stunned incomprehension, tempered still with a slight sensual anticipation, is pop-riveted to the scarred bonnet of my memory"
* pock-riveted
@@damienx0x it's pop riveted, and that comment is a decade old
@@willw.1466 He waited ten whole years to comment...only to get it wrong. It's almost as tragic as the tale told by C. Morris.
"between you an me but not for broadcast...." lol
Funnily enough the thing I remember most about this is the line ‘the bonds you make after 30 are so superficial frankly’, so true.
Well I’m fucked then because I’m twenty eight. Only two years to make any meaningful connections.
@@BarterTom thats the spirit, half a year gone now one and a half years left
Not really, the bonds just take longer to form. In the end you get a better quality friend than many you'll have in youth.
@@BarterTom how goes the meaningful friend quest ?
@@80srenaissance67 Shit.
the way he wraps up the ending so glibly is just phenomenal
David Essex can do that.
Morris has a masterful grasp of the English language and such a wild imagination haha.
I've seen Jam... Wild imagination is an understatement. XD
Jaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmm
I’ll never understand how he stays so serious without laughing.
'How men become ridiculous at the hand of bad lust'. The cover version of Horse With No Name by David Essex. Genius.
Obviously it's all building to *that* payoff, but I love just the little details in this.

I keep coming back to this years later. So unique
Im in love with his brain.
His brain is mine and I will take it to my grave!
As well as being extremely funny he's also a genuinely great storyteller.
"A skinned swan in the toilet"
That was one of the best pay offs ever.
This video just goes what an incredibly beautiful and fascinating language English can be with the right tongue and the right imagination.
Nice to see the “frozen shaft of urine ejected from a plane” line from the day today being used here!!!!
"A Wiltshire death ring"
Wilpshire, actually.
*****
You know too much.
No, I just listened properly.
Threatening messages on my pager.
aerialkate or he has common sense
If you know anyone who's learning English then direct them to vids like this. Exquisite & amazingly funny
Chris Morris splits my mind from end to end with his wit, subtle sarcastic words. Chris Morris is a pure genius. Where is this type of comedy TV in 2018?
le wrong generation
This sort of comedy in the current times is pissed out of a passing plane as a shaft of frozen urine because everyone on board was “a bit offended!”
It's only gonna pass the censor if the frozen shaft of urine came from a gender neutral toilet.
@@philtimm no.
I recommend Mrs Brown's Boys. Very very funny

My favourite bit is how she organises a contest to guess where her birthmark is and says she'll go to the lakes with the winner.
OMG that song brings back such horrid memories...
Awww…what a saaad story.
That was more amazing than I could possibly have imagined.
*How men become ridiculous at the hands of bad lust* ....
Never a truer statement word for word...
Morris is a God amongst satirists
"I had to change my name you may have heard of me in my previous incarnation and between you and me and not for broadcast as Cholice ketteridge"
I love how he unsuttley he read out his real name while he's in witness protection. 😂
I fell apart at "skinned swan". Fuck me Chris, I wish to bear your impossible children.
Perhaps this is Chris sharing his personal tale with us.
Epic monologue delivered masterfully.
"Triple futons and portable alcoves." Haha.
Absolutely insane, genius. Reminds me of Gogol.
JESSOP JESSOP JESSOP
got any triple sod
@@allways28 Get on the dark web with that crap, if you want your arms to feel like a couple of fortnights in a bad balloon, that's up to you.
No but I can give you a few clarky cat’s if your interested??!!
Oh my god, how legendary this is.
"wishing I smoked, muttering at squirrels..."
This is so much like his work with Peter Cook. Two geniuses colliding. Amazing
Why bother??
urine spear from a plane! I remember that from Day Today, haha! genius.
"Triple futons and portable alcoves"
wow. he is brilliant once more!
"pig blood in my milk"
Deeply moving
Does anyone have a copy of David Essex's cover of "a horse with no name" ?

Why?
@@TA-py9nt to remind us of happier memories
I’m going to turn into that old man - "He’s no Chris Morris.. Remember Chris Morris!?”
. The cover version. By David Essex.
genius, pure comical genius.
@falamble Couldn't agree more, the word 'genius' is used far too often for people who dont deserve it...in Morris' case it's spot on.
Oh fuck off you tiresome toad
I suppose your in that category yourself in order to assume your qualified enough to decide just who is and who isn't " genius "
2:49
I play that section over and over, and I have a fit of laughter every time 🤣
Yes, the ghost of Vivian Stanshall looms. Still brilliant, and made me laugh very hard.
What a sad story.
"I wander about for four hours showing immense interest in triple futons and portable alcoves." Took me a fair few seconds for that one to sink in.
R GW I don’t get it help me lol
@@peachcat1920 Come on, think about it.
Think about what an alcove IS.
Then realise it's literally impossible to make one portable.
Am I the only one who missing Chris Morris on TV?
Not at all.
amazing
awww what alovely story
Same thing happened to me.
Muttering at Squirrels
"muttering at squirrels"
He is an unpredictable serpent of venomous concepts.
If you don’t mind, I’m going to use that as the title for my autobiography.
@@BarterTom really? Like serious? I dont mind at all.
@@Yiospad Well my first two choices, My Struggle and My Booky-Wook have already been used by utter twats.
I've just spent two whole bloody weeks on a quack candle.
Jessop, Jessop, Jessop, Jessop, Jessop!!
It is. The cover version, by David Essex.
He uses that 'shard of frozen piss from a plane' quite a lot in his comedy
oh god thats where the aeroplane toilet frozen spike story came from
Fucking genius!
Cook was his inspiration and rightly.so
5:02 - 5:15 Hahaha I think that's the woman we actually see a picture of in either The Day Today or Brass Eye. :-)
Oddbins has become a go-to of British comedy. Who followed through there?
Cracking.
@MrVinushka Thank you =] It was amusing that Linehan used Cradle in the sitcom IT Crowd =P Bigger fan in my earlier teens but I still appreciate their early work.
What a twist!
Triple futons and portable alcoves!
Just six weeks ago.
5:00 & on is infeckincredibly funny!
i'd love a skinned swan
A thousand ghastly wonders 😂
Vacuous flirting 😏
Oh god
Doki66 thankyou for coming that your alive by favouriting this video. :D
@haledos The best question on TH-cam nice 1!
My God.
You're searching "David Essex" "horse with no name" on TH-cam right now, aren't you?
wilpshire?
Nice houses in Kilburn, but it's a bit greasy.
What is the song that starts playing at the end? I don't think it's Horse With No Name. x
Darude - Sandstorm.
Vivian Stanshall?
Bonzo Dogs.
Im pretty sure that song doesnt exist anymore
Fuck sake just let me be happy

A lot of the language on Radio 4 is accidentally more ridiculous than this. The combination of romantic seriousness and parochial specificness.
unpleasant shelf
Simon Bates on steroids, tragedy and hope turbocharged by a frozen golden shower...
lmao
The bonds you make after 30 *and in London* are so superficial frankly.
If you're bored of London, you're bored of fucking.
