Hugh Dennis actually told the story behind his name on Would I lie to you. Katherine Ryan was on the same episode and the subject came up when she picked up a card that read something like "I would never name my child/date a man with a one syllable name because people with one syllable names are usually dim". I'm not suprised that Rob didn't remember this because it was several series ago, I just think it's funny that Rhys told the story (again) and Rob didn't stop and think "hmm that sounds familiar".
He acts similarly in his interview with Dara O'Briain. Either he pretended not to remember so Rhys could tell the story, or he just never watches the episodes like us regular viewers
From South Africa, wish I could watch all his comedy shows some where, been a massive fan since seeing him on Mock 'o the week! Would love if his entire collection was on Netflix, I've seen so much british comedy shows / series / ect that I get all the references.
yeah, is that because of this interview ? and only one tennis player survives, but I dunno how a blue peter presenter comes bottom, unless they just did like half an episode
@@MrPetesime if you go onto the school's website, he isn't even on the first page :) Edit: for the almuni, I meant, not the first page of the school, that would just be weird :)
They didn't have the usual chemistry because they don't know and work with each other like most guests. Rhys was clearly nervous and Rob did a good job of avoiding a trainwreck. Both are great comics, I can see Rhys being a Brydon-esque figure in 30 years (without the singing and impressions).
Rob's face when Rhys made the "getting into the podcast game" comments. lol
Discovered Rhys James over a decade ago through his Twitter, crazy to see how far he's come. I've watched a few of his shows - good shit!
I'll be honest.. I've never heard of Rhys James. But he's made me want to find out more. Good interview
Rhys was always great on Mock the Week (may it rest in peace), and i’ve really enjoyed what ive seen of his standup.
Doesn't t seem like Rob has either going by the initial part of the interview
@@cuzned1375y
He was probably the best on Mock the Week in the last few seasons, and personally I think that’s how it kept surviving.
Ridiculously funny guy..

I was about to type the same thing. Only one of these two was present when this story was told, and it wasn't Reece 😂
Well that leaves ME out!
@@JeremyCouderc Rhys is all he has left of his actual name, you got to spell it correctly.

Rhys did so much Hollywood-based conversation here, you'd think he *hadn't* done a round of American TV recordings just this year.
One of my favs to date.
REALLY good interview! Never heard of him before, but a really great chap. Looking forward to seeing more.
And good ending!
The Peter Dennis story was told on Would I lie to you!? Rob was there!
That's what I immediately thought! Rob. Was. There.
Rob memory like a sieve situation? 😅 😮😊
You're both effortlessly funny, twas lovely spending time with you 💕
love that edit at the end, your editor deserves more credit :)
Love watching & listening.
Rhys is great on panel shows❤❤❤
He’s pretty much great everywhere. Very funny 😂
Great one! Loved it
This was one of the best ones
Lovely, Thank you both. 🌻
he's now number 1 on the wiki and the spree killer is now 4th.

@@mattyt1961 i have now looked up the houses, even tho I kinda hate the very idea of houses at school, I kinda think its not a bad list of choices
Reece is very underrated, top comedian
they've changed the school's wikipedia page 😭
Every time I think we've finished, we....😂
Rhys is the loveliest person in the comedy world (I would guess)
My husband was Robert Jones as well.
You absolutely did know that about Hugh Dennis, he said it on WILTY!😂
Please invite Stephen Fry!
Please get Tim Key on
Great idea, but I don't think they run in the same circles. It could turn out to be as awkward as this one.
probably my favorite is that Emeli Sandé's given name is Adele!
Very funny guy! 😀
Please get Peter Capaldi or David Tennant on the podcast
Rob needs about 100 pints of water, he looks like he’s just been excavated from the pyramids
Ha! This really demonstrates how little attention Rob actually pays to WILTY :P
Middle age 52 to 65, so out of those two middle ages you would be any where from 104 to 130 when you die.
Yes - DVD! #poor
Brydon seemed to be pushing himself through this one!
Really? 🤔
Felt a bit stilted, I noticed too!

@@peterhammond1701 Lol without the singing and impressions what can be considered "Brydon-esque"?
Give Rhys a chance, he isn't fully used to lots of interviews. He hasn't had a long career of comedy yet! He's very very funny though
Ah, so he was one of those snotty-nosed kids I used to pick up on the school bus...
Rhys was great on the UK Roast Battles series hosted by Jimmy Carr. He absolutely wiped the floor with his fat friend Griff.
sad that didn't work for me just saying
Too much choice on netflix etc,,,so lots of shite floating about...southern water type talent.
