I truly enjoy hearing Stephen Merchant any time he speaks. Not only is he a great storyteller, but his brilliance in articulation and expansive vocabulary add to the experience.
hmm...it does but then i think it's sad really considering the possible circumstances of them falling out with each other. neither of the 3 mention each other, ricky brushes off answering questions about falling out. they don't plug each others things. ricky's revisionist history "when I created the office" rather than "When me and stephen merchant created the office" among other things. I long for the xfm days....
@@ISetYourFaceOnFire All rumours mate. In recent interviews, Ricky has specifically stated that they haven't fallen out and they just think that nothing they could do in the future will be as funny as what they've already done. I personally agree but it would still be funny enough.
McSuperfly was referencing the XFM Show Ricky Gervais hosted with Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington. An article said that about his eyes from an interview.
Like I said before, most comedians have families and friends who are funny. The comedians are observant and have good memory. The real funny people are other people they know.
Tbh, if they were going on holiday to Greece, he definitely was well off. My first holiday, was when I was an adult. But the joke was having me laughing
If 'falling flat' is being in America's biggest TV show and having a big part in one of the best and biggest movies of last year (Logan), here's hoping I fall flat myself. I love all 3 (Ricky, Karl and Steve) but Ricky's fans shouldn't forget that Steve's input elevated everything Ricky did and the projects he's done without Steve all seemed to be missing something
ItsAsum It don’t be alarmed. Although if you do feel alarmed, try to hold onto that feeling because that is the proper reaction to being told that you’ve got brain damage

“Never forgot, son”
“I don’t remember, dad”
"He's done you again"
"He's done you and he's not even here!"
You did start it though didn’t you?
Play a record!
@@charlesbosher6719 Yes but Ricky's always stirring. He's a stirrer is that Gervais.
KP still owes him 50p
Bullshit. He gave him those beers.
And gave him those tickets to the concert
That Stephen never even went too.
Karl kept that 50p to compensate for the last minute editing out of all the effin and geoffin on Steve's hip hop hurray cd
The fact that every comment here is related to the xfm days made me smile

@@ISetYourFaceOnFire True. Btw, Ricky is the major dick in this story, i assume.

I love the story about how his father only bought one life jacket when they were on a boat
Ryan Dutton I always get the impression that Steve embellishes a lot of his stories
@@cathalmurphy1159 As lots of actors and writers do
@@cathalmurphy1159 you are delusional then
For me that's always the first story that comes to mind when Steve's dad is brought up! _"Aaargh, the boat be mine, or I'll take yer son."_
His voice never gets old.

I love Wheatley!
@Maow_&_SourPatchKids my brother, he's 7
Stephen is such a relaxed comedian who draws you in leaving you wanting more.
Eyes bulging with imagined riches...
alright mate don't have a go at the eyes, cos that's a stigmatism he's had since the age of 5
I was just about to leave the same comment.
McSuperfly was referencing the XFM Show Ricky Gervais hosted with Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington. An article said that about his eyes from an interview.
and James was referencing S02E05 of The Office.
Ohhhh what is wrong with him.
The only reason you don't go on holiday is because you have to spend money!
It’s good… but it’s not quite like nicking food from telephone boxes...
Nobody will ever match Karl’s dad. One of a kind
Or popping a autistic lad in a wheelie bin
BobbyTMF or telling those ladies to get out on the way home from the Bingo
Oliver Pierce play a record
BobbyTMF iconic
He must do more films. He's so funny in every role. Just his face is enough.
According to the laws of the sea son he could claim our boat😂
Ayeee the ship be mine
Eyes that pop out of their head...
Steve.
Good old Karl...
goggled eyed freak.
Not havin' a go mate, you know that
*HES DONE YOU AGAIN*
*PLAY A RECORD*
@@h0lly_blue he never says it normally, he either screams it or stammers it in a given-up tone lol
Funny how this story never came up when he was having a go at Karl's dad for nicking bread out of phone boxes.
In his village of 8 people
To be fair though, he spoke about how his father waited for his grandfather to die so he could get his jacket instead of buying a new one.
@@tipperary1082 Steve: "I'm waiting for it now"
He's was on a kenco TV ad a view years back
Look at the gleam on that
danshaggy292 It's like rope.
It’s an investment that
"GLEAM"
Could have been a trowel.
That's an investment.
1:23. I like how Graham listened to his guest clearly and with enthusiasm
I also love all these throw backs to the greatest Radio triumvirate and podcast innovators in the comments. You are my tribe.
I think Orlando thought he was serious about his dad watching TV through the neighbour's window lol
He still wanted that 50p... even after being given the concert tickets and the lager!
Did he even bother going?
He's done you again.
Money for old rope
It’s like gold rope
This comment section makes me feel less alone. Ahh I miss the Xfm days 😌
"Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves."
Human Smith easy to remember, good advice
One of my favorite underrated comedian/personality
I still can't believe he stole money from that ATM when someone left their card in it by mistake...
"She loves coffee Steve".
At least my dad is not stealing from a phone box, Karl!
‘To see at night as well as an owl you would need eyes as big as grapefruits. If only Stephen could turn his head right around as well...’
even mr bloom is like " the eyes... steve is an odd lookin bloke "
fistingendakenny I think he's a nice looking guy.
You get used to it.
The glasses touched his eyes
play a record.
Does anyone else think that Steve is way funnier and much more likeable the Ricky?
Steve is much more naturally whitty. Ricky is a better and more versatile actor, which is good for tv/movies but also stand up.
Like I said before, most comedians have families and friends who are funny. The comedians are observant and have good memory. The real funny people are other people they know.
The way he says thieving bastards 👌
watched arrival at the cinema with Stephen merchant sat in front of me. I never appreciated how tall he is.
what looked weirder him or the aliens
It’s the eyes
Steve's dad had a walk-on part in The Office. Fact.
I'm not interested, but which episode?
The comic relief one I think, and certainly Ep 6 of season 1
2 walk on parts.
R M anytime that random janitor appears in overalls staring at the camera. That’s his dad.
And a cameo in cemetery junction
1:42. Tooth Fairy is something that Graham Norton associate maybe? That's why he laughed 😂😂😂😂😂
Eyes buldging with imagined riches
1:41. I like the camerman take a good shot of Graham Norton 😂😂😂
Big eyes?
Yeah he's over there.
Steve's a legend
I like how when he talks,
Words come out.
There are so many good references here.
Steve was the brains behind The Office, as Rick’s garbage output over the last fifteen years has proved.
Only Graham can make the word "responsible" into a two syllable word.
Thanks for posting.
Have you seen men in Black 2?
there's this thing in it..
@@steventagg it could be your brother
stephen- play a record
stephen’s dad- play an album
0:54 Orlando laughed till he coughed 😅😅😅
1:26 I am glad Orlando asked that question 😂😂😂
That reply at the end was Savage 🤣
Thanks for all the lovely comments from the good ole dim days! I started listening to them back in 2010 and still listen to them daily!
Tbh, if they were going on holiday to Greece, he definitely was well off. My first holiday, was when I was an adult. But the joke was having me laughing
Stephen's wit is an absolute delight
Ooh! Das lanky pissenstreak!
Das freaken goggle eye.
Steve wasn't involved with the David Brent movie which is why it was so terrible
I wish Steve, Karl and Ricki would make a new podcast xx
The Oggmonster
Think of all those tickets Karl got for Steve that he couldn't be bothered to turn up for
And the crate of beer…
always a delight
Love Smerch, love the direction hes took with his career.
Appearing in awful American comedies and doing a voice in Sherlock Gnomes. Mmmmmkay
What, trying to follow in Ricky Gervais' success in America and falling flat.. Yeah me too.
he should stick to voice acting, going solo was the worst decision he could have made!
He has a warped ego and air of self entitlement surrounding him though. Of course it was going to fail but he was inevitably going to try.
If 'falling flat' is being in America's biggest TV show and having a big part in one of the best and biggest movies of last year (Logan), here's hoping I fall flat myself.
I love all 3 (Ricky, Karl and Steve) but Ricky's fans shouldn't forget that Steve's input elevated everything Ricky did and the projects he's done without Steve all seemed to be missing something
2:08 Super cringe Orlando Bloom Ali G “clap” at the end 😫
1:40 Tooth Fairy is a movie that both Stephen and Dwyane is in . 2010 movie
Smerch is so awsome :D adorable ... Stop being cute damn it
Pilkboys represent
1:25. Orlando get to ask question again after he didn't get to ask earlier. About whether is he an accountant ?
the real brains behind the duo
Remember Steve was co-writer and co-director of The Office and Extras from 2001-2012, when Ricky decided he did it all by himself?
Ricky even "borrows" from Stephen during their XFM days in his new stand up, Humanity.
James Faulkner II pretty much all of 'Science' was XFM or just straight up Karl jokes!
ya i am not so impressed by rick any longer
1:26. Haha I like Orlando Bloom asked that question
At least he's not sleeping in a dingy.
next door to the woman whose mam was a witch
He’s terrified of flooding
Sleeping in a rubber dingy to subsidise for the cost of having 2 TV's, 1 for picture 1 for sound
Tell me someone in the UK has been to Flambards as well?!?!
Lee Warner I been there, its brillaint! They have a world war 2 museum if i remember correctly
lol! Orlando Bloom said is he an accountant
NIce little Extras reunion there.
1:43. Tooth Fairy is a movie that Stephen Merchant was in too
To see at night as well as an owl, you would need eyes the size of grapefruits.
If only Stephen could turn his head right round as well.
0:10 Stephen was not expecting that from Graham
Eyes that pop outta their head...............Steve
“It’s only 50p Steve”
This actually made me very sad!
Anyone listening to the KP podcasts knew this already
As a Portal 2 fan, it's impossible for me to hear his voice without thinking of Wheatley, haha.
Same. It’s so hard to not think of Wheatley because Stephen didn’t even have to do a voice for Wheatley, he just talked normally.
Stephen Merchant is always a riot!
None of that happened
thumbnail: eyes bulging with imagined riches
Eyes bulging with imagined meanness.
I’m speaking in an accent that is beyond her range of hearing
that s explains the atm story.
1:43 Stephen acted in Tooth Fairy
Is it just me or does Steve's accent sound thicker here than usual?
Hes starting to sound a bit american
Play a record
0:09 Is he an accountant
His dad got a few parts in the office uk
It’s not out of the question that you might have a very minor case of serious brain damage.
ItsAsum
It don’t be alarmed. Although if you do feel alarmed, try to hold onto that feeling because that is the proper reaction to being told that you’ve got brain damage
As much as I find Stephen Merchant interesting, I hate Portal 2 a lot!
So that is where Steve got his stinginess from.
I like Stephen more than Ricky. Very quick witted too.
My mum was so cheap we were allowed macaroni or cheese, spaghetti or meatballs, peanut butter or jam.
0:15 It surprise everyone. Haha
To dating men today Stephen's dad is a hero. Great
I do not understand a single comment underneath this video. It's like a whole community inside-joke. I don't mind it, I like it, and I want in on it.
My mum was so cheap that we could have spaghetti or meatballs, macaroni or cheese, fish or chips.
