      @@colinbaker3916 I've been an audience member for some panel shows (albeit Not WILTY). In each, they had some notes on paper, and worked prefabbed jokes into the show. I think that they do not rehearse however, and that's how they retain the feel of improvisation, and perhaps that also generates some real, unplanned banter and additional jokes.
      Sometimes someone stumbles through an answer or a joke and they reshoot that at the end, spoken correctly.

    It's hard to believe how few awards and nominations WILTY has received in categories for Lee, David and the show. Somebody doesn't appreciate the gem they have with this cast and format. For perspective, try lasting through the limp US version that flopped here last summer. Keep your team together, Brits. And keep posting them on TH-cam for us to enjoy with a whiff of envy on the other side of The Pond.

    I was raised by a woman who became addicted to Agatha Christie then read as many books by British authors that she could get her hands on, never missed an episode of Masterpiece Theatre on PBS, and recommended many of those to her children. I’m so grateful to Mom for that. Since I discovered QI clips on TH-cam, I have been watching those, other game shows, Graham Norton, British made movies, anything I can find from the UK. My Netflix and Hulu recommendations are usually one-third to one-half British shows. Thanks, Great Britain. You rock! I won’t get into the music side because I don’t want to be up all night, but the Beatles, Moody Blues, and Queen are my top three favorite bands, and there are so many more on my list. Thanks again from a very grateful American. 🇺🇸🇬🇧

    I'm not a comedian, at least it's not my profession. But I would consider myself 'somewhat' of an aficionado, across eras and styles.
    The way I see it, you can make 'a person' _laugh_ or _laugh so they can't breath._ AND you can try to do both of those across a range from 'one' to 'all' people.
    Having said that, I'd say it's pretty impossible to make _all_ people _laugh so they can't breath._
    So comedians have to make a compromise. Lee Mack personifies that compromise.

    1:53 I never noticed but David and Victoria have very similar side face profiles. If you gave Victoria a beard and cut her hair it could be uncanny.

      chyue8686 I'm not entirely sure but , Virgin Media was probably a primary sponsor and there was a reception party or something which was bad and also Virgin Media Tv service is terrible ( sometimes called reception). His joke correlates the two meanings of the word reception.
      I could be wrong..

    Please someone tell me why...
    I'm really frustrated how I dont find lee mack funny, is it because I'm a foreign listener? I dont hate him, but im not really laughing at his jokes... I recently watched some WILTY compilations of some comedians like david mitchell, rhod gilbert, but lee mack is the one i laugh so little and even annoyed at some point because of how he's mad at some of his bits...
    Are there a lot of references that i dont know of which is why i dont really get to ride along...

      Humour is subjective. Lee usually goes for referable and relatable quick thinking humour thatis supposed to throw you off what you think someone would say about something which is why his humour is great. For example virgin media is known for being unreliable for wifi etcetera... and as this was sponsored by virgin media he made a joke saying they're bad on an awards which is sponsored by virgin media. No one would expect him to do that which makes it funny

      Well, it would help if you know who's who and what's what in the English scene. I'm not British, nor do I live there but I watch a lot of British tv and follow the news and discussions. I love Lee Mac's quick wit and how it complements and contrasts with David Mitchel's on WILTY. David comes across as posh, Lee Mac as working class, so there are a lot of jabs and banter going on between them to highlight their different corners of society. The entertainment comes from the exchange between all the panellists who do not tell jokes as such but are extremely funny just the same.

      @@Gallo_1.6 Ok fair enough, but I watch it every day or so as well. Agree about the scripted "Not going out" being poor, (and he can be puerile/annoying at times on Wilty) but in the WILTY improvisation format I think Lee is, usually quite brilliant and well worth his place on the show.
