Tim Key is genuinely just so naturally fun, just his demeanor and the way he speaks is entertaining.
just a shame he didn't do much talking - Rob wouldn't shut up.... Frustrating.
@@ItsSafehands he talks more in the full podcast.
His cameo in Life's too short is hilarious and I think he has got a handle on things 😜
Yeah... It's almost poetic.
This is great banter! It really is...!
I see what you did there!! 😁
are you on an E?!
But not too informal; it's not Nigel Pinsent's "In Depth" but neither is it Wally Banter's "Junk-Box"
..That's humour...
I love Tim Key's brand of comedy - he is so completely off the wall and full of surprises.
Mid Morning Matters was superb - locked off cameras, very minimal, Steve doing Partridge, and the icing on this car crash of hugely embarrassing moments was Tim’s ‘Sidekick Simon.’ The chemistry was just brilliant.
It’s so rare to come across somebody with a unique comic voice. I watch the Witchfinder series practically on repeat just to marvel again and again at Tim Key’s performance and perfect timing.
Yes! Brilliant show, that. Went under the radar but it was hilarious!
@@jlc7841 Yep!
I agree I love Witchfinder.....brilliant cast......but Tim Key was superb
Will never ever get bored of Tim
Tim Key is truly a unique comedy voice
Key's character on Saxondale wasn't selling timeshares but asks Tommy if he's considered consolidating his credit card debts. Tommy replied, "No, but I've thought about caning them all into the red then faking my own death."
PLEASE listen to Tim Key's Late Night Poetry Programme on BBC Sounds - it is radio comedy perfection.
It's genius. The comic timing is perfection from both Key and Basden. The episode where Diane Morgan plays the magicians assistant is brilliant.
It really is brilliant, there's nothing else like it.
New series coming soon apparently! 🥳
I don't think I will be able to say St. Albans the same way ever again
@@emmajean8631 Oh wow, that's great news!
I have never seen anybody nail comedic timing and subtle facial expression as Tim Key did with Sidekick Simon. Thank you
The subtle 'I've got about 4" at 6'02" is hilarious. Even Brydon missed it.
“Are you an anecdotalist?”
Those little moments Rob pointed out are brilliant , Tim is absolutely perfect for his role…. Love it.
I think his performances in Cowards was very understated. Very cool guy.
My favourite one of these yet, Tim's a gem!
Also, make sure you listen to The Adam Buxton Podcast episode 77 with Tim Key, one of the all time great podcast episodes!
His off menu episode is hilarious too
Why salt? Oh, to make it salty!
Martin freeman has worked with Gervais on the Office and Coogan on Hot Fuzz
Yes and Joanna Page and Jenna Ortega I hear.
Spent about an hour trying to think of someone...
Ben Stiller as well - in same film - night in the museum
Larry David too.
Simon Pegg: Ricky Gervais was in spaced, and Simon Pegg was in Alan partridge
Tim’s such a great comedian,loved him in mid morning matters 😂
I love Tim Key. Such a likeable guy.
Tim Key interviewing Simon Amstell 12 years ago,on You Tube is golden,like this.
The way Simon and Tim bounce of each other is superb.
Mid Morning Matters is the best Partridge and Sidekick Simon is a big part of that.
I think the Kathy Burke thing was "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme", a differemnt Abba lyric :). As for money films there is "The Color of Money", a sequel to "The Hustler" with Paul Newman and Tom Cruise...
Ben Stiller. Gervais and Coogan were both in Night at the Museum.
And Ben Stiller worked with them both separately. Gervais in Extras, and Coogan in Tropic Thunder.
Truly wonderful. Thank you
Anyone else find this man wildly attractive? In so many ways? Just sitting there in his footie gear. No pretentiousness just wonderful wit and humour and humility. He's a total one off. Good luck to him.
Nice try Tim
Yess!! I keep finding myself confused by how attractive I find Tim!
I’ve been saying this for years!!!
@@berrinozcan6803 I can not overstate how much joy it gives me to see a Turkish person here joining in the Tim Key praise! Was really wondering whether I was his only fan in Turkiye! 😭😭😭
@@enki345 Mert?
The scene in This Time they are talking about with the interactive screen is just brilliant. The bit where he looks looking for the phone calls, and he gets to a screen where every icon is a phone 📱📞☎️ is sublime. We are lucky to have such brilliant people making comedy
A chipper in... Yes. A special talent unto itself.
the most brilliant and most funny thing I ever seen was Alan during a bit of improv saying "hey there baby girl" and the look on Tim's face totally cracked me up. Good team work and the camera to get Tims look was so clever. Priceless.
yeah, doing his Al Pacino in the acting class. lol
I love the offbeat pace of Tim Key's delivery. Always surprising.
Diane Morgan - the person Rob & Tim couldn't think of who has worked with both Coogan and Gervais is Diane Morgan.
I love her.
Cracking banter ! It really is
The scene where Simon has betrayed Alan by going on the Branning show is wonderful ❤
key is so lovable. chipper-inner 💗
An extra lovely element of this is Tim wrote an article for the independent about how much he loves holding hands 2:24
Tim key as Mushki… the new slave on Plebs was wonderful.
Also. I think Tim should bring Tom Basden with him everywhere he goes to play a musical accompaniment when he speaks.
Tim Key's Late Night Poetry programme is a jewel of a show. Perfection. Just got Chapters and the two lockdown books are outstanding. Honourable mentions from below the line for No More Jockeys. Tim is so much more than a sidekick!
Came across the TKLNP prog. Absolute fever dream-like plots. Hilarious
Wish it would come back
@@00tommo First episode was 12 years ago. 12!! Someone else below the line said there was a new series coming. I haven't found any information on it, but, it would be welcome.
The last two series have been....not so good. The first three I think are as near to perfect that I've ever heard. Did you ever hear "down the line"? That's brilliant also (not Tim key tho).
@@jimbobbby Correct, the bar was set high with the first three. Episodes were shorter and tighter at 15 minute rather than the near 30 for series 4/5. Extra mention for 'Tim Key's Suspended Sentence'. Down the line was BRILLLLIANT! I think it lives on in Colin from Portsmouth. Love to the family!
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme was the sitcom with Kathy Burke and James Dreyfus not Money, Money, Money
Thank god someone also heard this and corrected them 🙏
MMM was probably peak partridge - every episode was flawless
From the Oasthouse is pretty vintage stuff too
1st series was incredbile@@awesomefrankrapid
For me, Mid Morning Matters is peak Partridge, and Tim Key as Simon was obviously a huge part of that. A very talented comedy actor.
Absolutely loved all of this and, especially, the first 4 minutes which were golden but a lovely Podcast.
Thank You.
Tim Key 🗝️ locked in to this interview 😊
A Recession was,officially,announced this very day and THIS is EXACTLY the type of material we need to overcome these dark times..
Great to Timkey, a shame he didn't play his magic flute
Saw Tim at the fringe in 2010. He was actually very good.
Robs face when Tim asks him if he's ever done straight up stand up! Lol then tracks back with the "I saw you at Edinburgh" 😆
Tim playing a local tv journalist trying to interview Warwick Davis on Life’s Too Short is still some of the funniest shit I’ve ever seen.
I was watching that episode last night!
The aggression!
Hope he was less abusive to the A Team van.
Probably the most underrated series of all time. Like Darkplace it seems to be getting new appreciation.
I’ve always wondered, if he was calling Warwick a midget; did he call the A Team van black?
A midgeophobe and a van racist.
I grew to love Tim Keys sense of humour through watching that TH-cam thing he does with Alex Horne, no more jockeys
Lovely stuff
I was racking my brain as to why that voice was so familiar, and then it clicked. He sounds like Nick Mohammed, and I Just recently binged Ted Lasso. I've seen Tim first, but watching this now, just makes it clear!🤯😂
"I don't know any fashion words!"
"Lynn wears a coat that was advertised with the words STRONG COAT FOR SALE"
That wonderful scene with Seb Cardinal in This Time is so wonderful.
"Juliaaaaaa!"
@@leona6455 it's a HAPPY SKIRT
@@ceriannalflorencina8297 have we maybe watched that scene more than the necessary amount? The bit where Simon awkwardly feels the fabric and pronounces it to be "decent"...😂
@@leona6455 it's possible 😄
@@ceriannalflorencina8297no shame in it!😅
Tim has this bizarre ability to get more out of the interviewer than the interviewer gets out of him. He did the same thing to Richard Herring
Clink of Crockery would be a great name for a podcast.
I wanted to hear the rest of the Impington to Footlights tale. Sometimes Rob just can’t resist hogging it.
Such an important part of Tim's life, and we didn't get it...
The biggest compliment I ever heard paid to Tim Key was from Steve Coogan himself. He said Tim's funny but he doesn't know how he's funny, and that because he fails to be able to pinpoint this it intrigues him.
THE WITCHFINDER! 🤣👌
Excellent stuff.
I don't mind it.
When you stop and really think about it, it's great to be below the line. Even if - and it's a tiny if - it isn't the same line
Nuisance penguins are back at it again
Please have Tom Basden on next Mr Brydon ❤
check out Simon key in a fantastic short film, called Wonderdate. Such a talented and nice guy
LOVE Wonderdate. So funny, heartfelt and gorgeously filmed too.
Ben Stiller and Simon Pegg have worked with both Coogan and Gervais. In fact they were both in Night at the Museum 2 so anyone in that cast. Gervais had a small part in Spaced so that’s the Pegg connection.
This is golf, i mean gold...apart from the absence of cork glass mats, good job.
The answer is of course Rob Brydon, whose voice appeared alongside those of Ricky Gervais and Steve Coogan in the classic Robbie the Reindeer: Legend of the Lost Tribe.
Lynn, idea for spinoff podcast ‘Trousers Off With Rob Brydon’ oh and can you collect my dry cleaning.
Perfect ending 😂
What a pleasant chap and Rob your hair is wonderful!
And that's how you end a great podcast...
The Kathy Burke/James Dreyfus series wasn't called money money money, it was called Gimme Gimme Gimme so Tim can use money money money.
*A lovely bit of skirt!*
Juliaaaaaa
my favourite show back in the day was money money money with Kathy Burke and James Dreyfuss
Tim Key was brilliant with Coogan on mid morning matters
"Gentlemen to bed! For we rise at first light and leave for the battle at....what time's the battle?" ....(9:THURTEE......ISH)...
Bohnson & Moggeth
Bohnson waddled out into the garden… the sun was hot hot hot!.
His rays bounced off the side of the house that he rented and into his scruffy, urine coloured hair.
He put his fists on his thick hips and surveyed the proceedings; he liked what he saw, put it that way.
“Staffers Unwinding” - that’s the headline news!
Caps flying off beer… senior politicians wrestling… policy makers unfolding Twister. Finding a flat bit of lawn to peg it down.
Bohnson smiled, his tennis shorts bulging with pride.
Moggeth handed him a couple of Swedish meatball wraps and ladled some punch down his throat.
“Oh Moggeth, you see the vibe?” There was a Government affiliated DJ playing chilled Tory beats, and Bohnson’s trotters started jiggling on the turf.
He checked his watch… “well that’s me I reckon” Mogeth almost choked on his Bullmers… “You ain’t fuckin’ off already are you?”
Bohnson winked and did an ‘under the thumb’ gesture. He smashed a tin opener against a bottle of Bollinger…
“Right, I’m off you ‘horrible lot!”
They boo’d, some had their tops off, some had coke running down their chests.
“Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do, chaps!”
“Narrow it down boss!”
The laughter grew & grew, it swept Bohnson back through his French Windows, it rose over the walls and drifted like poison across the city.
Tim Key. Genius poet.
Quite enchanting and an excellent guest.
That Technology part of the show with Partridge was hilarious...Partridge a late substitute Presenter a la "One Show" introduces a "rare, special talent" that he has discovered and introduces "Simon" to the Narion amidst glowing praise and, gradually, thru Simon's total ineptitude gets more and more embarrassed by his "find" and cuts the segment,to which Simon enquires if he can still do the weather later and Coogan gives him the darkest look imaginable. Brilliant!
Tom looks like he's heading to Wetherspoons for breakfast.
Both worked with Ben Stiller actually in the same film Night in the museum
Tim has the best traits of an English man.
@ 10:45 when Rob says Coogan had an advance DVD of Saxondale and made him watch it while he watched his face, and Tim Key says "ooh!", are they implying that Saxondale wasn't very good, or just that Rob expected to be doing something more exciting on Sunset Boulevard? I enjoyed Saxondale - I thought it was very good, not quite Partridge level, but well worth watching.
9:55 Does Rob no longer favor the long sock?
The Ballad of Wallis Island: Go Man, Go
Yes
That was lovely, but I’ve got to say
If you haven’t already go back and check the Tim key simon App Store, interview from
Maybe 15 years ago now, not sure
Just still one of the funniest things ever
One For the Money is a Katherine Heigl film.
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme is the Kathy Burke series.
two for the show should really be the sequel..
Ooh (sure someone's already said this but getting it down) re someone who's worked with Gervais and Coogan- Larry David!
Great Call and entirely thanks to Ricky,I started watching Curb Your Enthusiasm and at 69 years old,it is my favourite USA show of all time ahead of VEEP , the brainchild of Armando Iannucci,heavily involved with Partridge and much else:)
What happened to Tim's film?
My birthday is the 2nd of September!
Larry David has worked with both Coogan and Gervais.
Rob. It's Gimme Gimme Gimme. 👍🙄
It’s actually against disadvantaged kids. Isn’t everything?
Sarah Alexandra is an obscure pick for the Gervais/Coogan Venn diagram.
Tim ‘yeh’ Key
“Come on now…what’s all the fuss about…”
I think he means "The Homecoming" rather than "The Caretaker". *sniff
Gaaaaa. I still don’t know why Tim Key calls Tom Basden “Lord”.
anyone in Night at the Museum 😁
the early part of this would have been greatly improved if we were privy to the clips they were on about...was nonsensical without them...love tim
It’s Lenny in the homecoming .
Ben Stiller. Is the answer to that final question.
hands off your face, key
Gimme Gimme Gimme was a series, not Money Money Money, so that could be used. 👍
Just what the otolaryngologist ordered 👌
Gimme Gimme Gimme.
