I know it’s a joke, but that inheritance line is really sad in the context of the situation. Notice how he wants to die after his wife and dog are gone, even though his daughter is still alive.
It had a really stellar cast, it might have been because Ricky Gervais (he was one of the writers) and Martin Freeman broke off to focus more on The Office. It's not like Mitchell and Webb couldn't get another sketch show, they were on their feet in no time with another one and still brought Olivia Coleman along. The Mitchell and Webb show was basically Bruiser but with a slighty reworked cast so I think that really could be the reason.
@@kellydalstok8900 Oh no it's 100% accurate to how the city is now. The gritty and serious tone of the show clearly reflects the way the crime rate has risen in the last two years.
I'm of the understanding that they don't actually kill people who are not suffering of either life-altering illnesses that will only get worse or are already dying, albeit slowly and painfully. Depression or being life weary is not exactly either of those.
I really like this, it’s a reversal. I want to be that honest if I ever get that old. I’d like to think that I’ll have the balls to buck up and do the numbers. It seems a curse to myself to just continue on because I can still breath. Mostly. I love my grandmother. My maternal great grandmother. (They all had kids young.) I’d hate for her to stick around in pain if she didn’t want too. And if she does I’d be heartbroken if she did it just because she was scared, or didn’t know what else to do. She is hitting 80 soonish. And is still mobile, and functional, and live on her own. As long as she is satisfied, I love to have her. But if she wants to go... I’d be willing to let her go gently. Respectfully.
I'd love to send this video to my mom because this is just her kind of humor, but grandpa has demetia now so it's probably a bit too real for her right now
I was wondering why they'd go all the way to London for a hitman when you're bound to be able to get one in Bristol, which is much closer. Then I realised that there is something inherently funny about someone saying Kilburn in that accent that they are using.

whats in it how does it work why do they die?

Clue? Spotted the american, I think. Pretty interesting on this video.

The acting and writing of this are just perfect.
Like so many of their sketches, it's amazing.

IDK why, but this works much better as a YT clip than in the format of a sketch show.
So many good quotes
“No chance of a dash of bleach, I suppose?”
too relatable
How could ANYONE kill David Mitchell?
Now, Robert Webb - on the right day...
I love her attitude & accent and bangs. so hoooot
This version of The Father is way less depressing.
"Sheila Pope, in the drawing room, with the lead piping"
He couldn't look younger if he tried.
Their speaking is so good in this, especially Olivia's
Hahaha I love the Cluedo references.
This sketch is perfect! Love every bit!

My God, discovering this show is the highlight of my year
This has an academy award winning actor in this.

You do any poison?
no this is the internet we do... internet stuff
jack brearley
he was referencing another sketch
i know
Do you do poison?
No, this is TH-cam, we do demonetization.
Amazing comedy
The film ‘The Father’ existing where Olivia Coleman plays a similar role makes this even more funny.
It was the daughter and she did it with a candlestick in the living room.
Does she do poison?
I couldn't do it,
I don't have the technical know-how
Stake through the heart, pretend I'm a vampire! XD

This show had an amazing cast, how the heck did it only last a single season?
It had a really stellar cast, it might have been because Ricky Gervais (he was one of the writers) and Martin Freeman broke off to focus more on The Office.

The candlestick x'D
Bruiser is so good, yet we never got a Bruiser 2???
Yes, but they made loads more shows under the 'Mitchell & Webb' title. Does it really matter that they weren't still called 'Bruiser'?
i just realized that the daughter lost her mother and her dog and that's the reason she doesn't want to kill her father
or it a chore and the fact she could go to prison if she did
At last I feel represented.

Dammit, I live in Bath. I guess I can't get anyone killed very easily.
In the detective series MacDonald and Dodds plenty of people get killed in Bath. Are you saying that’s all fiction?
@@kellydalstok8900 Oh no it's 100% accurate to how the city is now. The gritty and serious tone of the show clearly reflects the way the crime rate has risen in the last two years.

Woo Kilburn! Love David Mitchell :)
Can't he just go to a Swiss clinic?
He has the moolah.
Not with her inheritance
I'm of the understanding that they don't actually kill people who are not suffering of either life-altering illnesses that will only get worse or are already dying, albeit slowly and painfully. Depression or being life weary is not exactly either of those.
Well, she did say he has less than a year left...
