I have a theory that Ed used to do Improv in uni or something (not the sort of thing that would be recorded for posterity) he has a very "Yes and..?" attitude that allows absurd comics like James to build to a crescendo. That said, them being friends doesn't hurt. On another episode they were talking about puddings (the minister for health said puddings were bad) and James said how upset that made him, he once went over to Eds and ate an entire pint of B&J while looking up American B&J flavours. (cue laughter and ribbing from the others). Ed then revealed that James hadn't been invited that day (implication being James interrupted Ed and his girlfriend). Just another added layer of absurdity that added so much!
I started watching this mainly to see James and Ed, but I gotta say I was really impressed by Darren’s and Angela’s standup. (Also I really wanna know where Ed buys clothes because he always has cool shirts on this show)
I was impressed by the irony of Darren making fun of Trump's ignorance of other cultures and then referring to the leader of North Korea as "King Jong Un."
krileayn Do racists scare me? No. I laughed in your face. That would suggest the opposite of fright. As a Trump supporter written language may come as a difficult code to decipher, I know. Eventually you’ll get past those board books and maybe tackle a Hardy Boys mystery or two.
People saying that these comedians being political nowadays.... Please note: most comedians get their material from real life, ergo do consider real life politics are CURRENTLY comedic.
"trump" could be used to mean loud fart, and farts are very much in the air, and tend to have an effect on the dynamic of a room, especially a loud one
Live their chemistry on off menu as well. Often complimenting eachother on jokes or questions, saying how proud they are of eachother. And I love how when James goes super weird and whimsical, Ed just goes: right, what are you on about, mate. And James just leaning into it even more. Definitely one of my favourite pods of all time
I've been eagerly awaiting this upload ever since I heard that Season 17 was on. I freely admit that I'm a MTW addict; and I'm American. Don't give a rat's behind about the political leanings; but I DO love the humour. Please continue to feed my addiction.
At first I questioned my capacity to watch these sessions more than once sometimes; and then it hit me, if that was an unaccompanied piano sonata it wouldn't seem weird at all.
@@mcstriker he was only impeached by Democrats!! -- he faced no punishment because no Judge could find a valid reason to complete the impeachment!! It was as if Labour voted to 'impeach' Boris Johnson but then no Judge could find an actual legal reason they should be removed. Completely pointless

Sweet Jesus but for a show that has long had left leanings, a proudly left host in an overwhelmingly left stand up national environment.. there are so many ~disenchanted, disappointed right wingers in the comments below! Did you just realise??
The editing on this show is so odd. Every single time Harriott makes a joke, they cut to his reaction to his own joke. Every single time! This happens with no one else. Why can't we be privileged enough to see Acaster's reactions to his own comedy?
Yeah that was the point lol...I like the idea of pressuring him to keep a straight face. Harriott just looks sad or anxious. Maybe the cameraman has a grudge.
Ed Gamble and James Acaster should really get their own show together. Their styles of comedy feed off each other so well.
@caleb they do already have shows together
they have a youtube show called just puddings on the channel turtle canyon comedy
Ellie Scott I hadn't known that, gonna check it out! Thanks!!
Ed works with Greg Davies already
Caleb Flood gotta defend James here. He doesn't need to carry any dead weight. He's so much better than Ed.
Love when Ed and James are on together they work so well together (makes sense since they're friends)

Tamashi88 do you know what episode they talk about pudding on?
I'd really watch anything with James Acaster
So true. He's such a cutie and really funny
Have you watched taskmaster with James
So Say We All
The Ed Gamble-James Acaster duo is just a guaranteed good show
One's a diabetic and the other is so sweet his sugar levels won't drop XD
You’d like their podcasts together then. It’s called Off Menu
@@tacobell4743 was just about to mention this! They are class
They’ve also both been on Taskmaster.
Not at the same time, but they are hilarious
They're mates who have down they're own stuff together, a desert show because ed can't have much sugar & a podcast now

@@ae4164 most people hold the president of a country to a higher standard than panel show hosts. To each their own though.
@@dragonaffliction23 I hold any grown adult to the standard of knowing that. So not you, don't worry.
I love petty arguments for no reason ahdhdjajjsj 10/10 for ur reponse
seeing James in a line up always makes me happy because I know I am gonna laugh :D
love how the panel on the right are the snazzy shirt brigade
“Cars...because sometimes horses are just two men in a costume” 😂😂😂
"Oh, so he's not a racist now?"
He isn't

Thank you for your erudite explanation of the obvious. Your cookie is in the mail.
@@thehellyousay you underestimate how stupid people can be, some people genuinely don't get that
Nobody is saying that on a political comedy show
Yeh, but, don't set me up for that!
I laughed so hard at that 🤣🤣🤣
james is one of the funniest original comedians today
is nobody talking about james' jawline tho?
groovyheck thinking it
I wanna clone James Acaster and have him with me at ALL times!
Love James acaster
"aerodynamic trump" did not get enough love
"trump" could be used to mean loud fart, and farts are very much in the air, and tend to have an effect on the dynamic of a room, especially a loud one
It's like James and Eddie are soul mates ♥

Definitely one of my favourite pods of all time
I like the number of snazzy shirts in this show
“ no James you did cocaine” 😂
Hugh dennis always looks baked or half cut. Hes my favorite though. Such a funny guy.
'Bush wasn't that bad' 👌👌
Angela Barnes is easily one of my favourites, so funny
Agreed.
Never understood why she gets so much flak.
First question and James already has three zingers up his sleeve
Hugh Dennis is always in top form :)
I watch any thing with Ed Gamble!!
I've been eagerly awaiting this upload ever since I heard that Season 17 was on. I freely admit that I'm a MTW addict; and I'm American. Don't give a rat's behind about the political leanings; but I DO love the humour. Please continue to feed my addiction.
I love James sm 😍💖
One of my all-time favourite episodes of this show!
Angela and the hard soft flashing joke is seriously underrated
God, I love this show. I'm from NZ but these shows are way better than NZ one sometimes. I love this show and 8 out of 10 cats does countdown 😍😍
I love 8 out of 10 cats does countdown! 😁
I'm not convinced Ed Gamble was joking about about James Acaster with the quip he made about taking cocaine...
Exactly! Laughed so hard about that as well
The nearest James Acaster comes to cocaine is when he accidentally snorts a bit of his sherbet dip.
Yeah 14:55 your nose sore there bud?
James did kinda look guilty after Ed said that lol
How do I marry James Acaster please he's so cute ansbdmgmg
You would probably balk at the requirement of sacrificing kittens to the great cabbage.
Not act like a 14 year old girl for starters
ed gamble's x-ray baby joke was perfect
the only thing that can stop a bad dancer with a gun is a good dancer with a gun
I like the number of snazzy shirts in this show
At first I questioned my capacity to watch these sessions more than once sometimes; and then it hit me, if that was an unaccompanied piano sonata it wouldn't seem weird at all.
"I love that moment, when you decide whether it `s OK or not.."
MeToo!
Come on! The unicorns run Scotland, being their national animal, and the Leprechauns run Ireland.
I swear James actually did coke before the show.
Ed Gamble is HOT
Also funny, but then so much of this panel is good.
I still think Ed looks like ''Randy the Mischief Marionette'' from Pee Wee's Playhouse
A friend of mine is his spitting image; if your're interested he's unmarried, I could give you his number!
Agreed! Swoon.
Jake R totally agree need to see more of him
Ed’s impeachment comment aged incredibly well.
Nobody was impeached
@@annother3350 well Trump was, but faced no punishment for it
@@mcstriker he was only impeached by Democrats!! -- he faced no punishment because no Judge could find a valid reason to complete the impeachment!!
It was as if Labour voted to 'impeach' Boris Johnson but then no Judge could find an actual legal reason they should be removed. Completely pointless
I'll hold you and love you for ever James Acaster 👍
I really want Ed Gamble's shirt, does anyone know where I can get it? please and thank you
Lazy Oaf, but I can’t seem to find it in stock anywhere since it’s from maybe 2018
Angela Barnes is seriously, seriously good.
Three things are certain in life
Life
Death
Hugh Dennis getting the correct answer in round one of Mock The Week
Anyone else get confused by the year these episodes were recorded. Think it’s a new episode based on brexit talk then there is a clip from last year.
Only just realised Ed is wearing a Sans shirt. Legend.
Thank you for uploading this. Made my day.
I know this wasn't supposed to be what I took away from this but I love Darren Harriott's shirt, anyone know where it's from?
I love watching this sitting in America, we need this so much
yay! was wondering where my week mocking was.
Oi Darren... Rob Beckett called.. he wants his teeth back.
I see you EVERYWHERE. And I know it's u because I'm subbed XD
7:45 was expecting a black hole joke
well, Thank You So Very Much !!! need this real bad this week. 30 minutes and 35 seconds of My Mind on Hold. sit back for some Fun!
Thanks so Much . Cheers.
OMG 'stealth Trump'
here’s an idea for some of you,,,,, if you don’t like it,,,,, don’t watch it. it’s not difficult mate
Bo Pick found the antivaxxer
I'm imagining being spit roasted by Ed and James.
I hate everything about this comment
Meh. I've had better.
@@jamessired8634 ... Whatever.
I live in Cornwall and there’s not any food anyway even before brexit.
Do it in terms of trains: delayed, cancelled and replacement bus service! Haha
Thanks for all these uploads, Ovid. I haven't got a TV (can't afford a ruddy licence), so this is a real treat. Kissy kissy mmmwah! ♥ :-)
So glad someone can find humor in our horror. Dear civilized world, we’re sorry. Signed USA
You've done nothing to rectify the situation you dumb consumer drone.

Seán O'Nilbud well half of the nation tried to stop him
And half didn't, and his electoral college was higher amongst women and blacks. He is the man to lead America. God bless the USA
Ross Moir but the demecorats won the popular vote by I think 10000 maybe 5000 can’t remember it was long ago
Hugh was excellent on this episode
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I watch this before bed every night. Makes me so happy. Brilliant comedians.Miss Britain for the humour.🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺❤️
Dara is Irish and the six panelists are English, not British and yes there is a difference...cor blimey...
@@datgrrl5698 All English are British. Stop being so American.
Miss Britains have always been known for their humour. It helps make up for the snaggly teeth.
23:32 my face when seeing this
Can’t believe not a single person sang “we just got a letter, we just got a letter, we just got a letter, wonder who it’s from”
As always thanks for these! :)
I was thinking back to when Frankie Boyle was on MtW answering with "What are the speed settings of the world's most powerful vibrator?"
That was a good joke. Do you know who he was talking about? His accent is so thick I can't catch it. Just curious.

13:54 Is it Tampax new product line?
Angela is one of UK's funniest comedians today. It's not easy, where every second person is an out of work comedian.
She's great, and a great joke surfer.
Sweet Jesus but for a show that has long had left leanings, a proudly left host in an overwhelmingly left stand up national environment.. there are so many ~disenchanted, disappointed right wingers in the comments below! Did you just realise??
Well, they NEVER joked about Obama like that, and the former president is more racist than Trump.
@@marvinmeeker5765 What?
James
thanks for the upload, good fun
If he gave you his knife, then why wouldn’t you let him dance?🥺😂
I'm not usually a fan of James Acaster but he did great this episode!
Jenova Strife his style of humour is really subjective, Americans don’t really get it but he’s one of my favourites at the moment
This one is amazing
Where did James buy that shirt?
A stealth trump 😂😂
‘Bush wasn’t that bad’ 😂😂😂😂😂
If Darren Harriott worked with Ozzy Osborn, they could be Ozzy and Harriott
stop at 23:32 and 25:43 if you need a laugh.
Have a lovely day!
The toast melted butter joke has been on Mock The Week before. Anyone remember who did it first?
What setting do you want it on my man?
I don't understand why toothpaste is more expensive than other toothpaste if it all works the same
....Or how a Corvette costs more than a Camaro.
@@marvinmeeker5765 A Corvette looks cooler
15:24 Hughes joke was so funny he's killed Ed
Ive never seen Darren Harriott before. He's pretty awesome :)
Good sarcasm mikey.
27:50 proof that robots walk among us
Only 2 more James Acaster appearances to go, and then they go back to an all comedian panel
your back is crooked and looks in severe discomfort. Only one thing for this. 'GET ME THE PUMMELER!'
25:22 That's what they should do in Gilead!
Angela kills!
2:39 King John Un
That's how the Flump looks in his freemason apron. 💥
it was ok. i had been unable to get it on utube for about 2-3 months. what happened?
would you be able to correct the timing of the subtitles? that would be great help thank you :)
The editing on this show is so odd. Every single time Harriott makes a joke, they cut to his reaction to his own joke. Every single time! This happens with no one else. Why can't we be privileged enough to see Acaster's reactions to his own comedy?
acaster's reaction to his own comedy is mostly just a blank face- which i don't see how he manages. except the "goddamn i love these peaches" bit.
Yeah that was the point lol...I like the idea of pressuring him to keep a straight face. Harriott just looks sad or anxious. Maybe the cameraman has a grudge.
Maybe that was the only reaction.

Whats with the weird audio skipping? Its sometimes sounds like its sped up, like, 5%
