Milton Jones co-opted that joke but made it work. 'My Grandfather called me over to him on his death bed and he said to me 'You selfish boy' . And so I became, a fish monger.'
Saw a young comedian doing pun based comedy (she even mentioned she wanted to be the new Tim Vine) but most of her material didnt work. I'm not sure what the difference is between replacing a word with another word that sounds similar and actually making a pun based joke that works but its obviously not as easy as Tim (or Milton) make it look.
WOW - I love Richard Herring and Tim Vine and I love hearing Richard Herring talk about Tim Vine and I also love fishmongers!
Love Rich’s genuine laughter at 8:15
Great interview.. two of my favourite people on that internet they have now. 🏆
Tim Vine is the king of the one liners..
1:24 I much prefer his hockey stick behind the ear routine..
Richard, Ed Gambles been on the phone and say “your still not taking over the podcast”.....

Noticed MILTON WAS A SLIGHT COPY
I'm sure he did become a fishmonger, I don't go to his shop, I never get what I pay for because he's always Missed a Herring.
In my opinion, the best thing about "pen behind the ear" is the soundtrack - does anyone know who scored it?
I think Tim writes and records all his own show music.
Berbatov I believe.
Handel - who teamed up with Hinge & Bracket to form the doors
Ennio Morricone

ok then
I reckon stew would've explained it better
BOLLOCKS!
Tim Vine's brother, on the other hand... 😠😠😠
The ‘pen behind the ear’ routine is very redious. Not surprising Herring likes it!
I think redious routines are the best.
Redious toutines are funnier.
