“What did he look like?”
“Exquisite”
I died lmfao
I certainly laughed harder than I should have.
@@Star_Joker How hard should you have laughed, would you say?
@@alaron5698 it should've been a big smile and a little chuckle. I actually laughed like Joaquin Phoenix's Joker for about 2-3 seconds. It was quick, but hard.
@@Star_Joker no murders were involved, though I take it?
" Sometimes there are things in life that are a disappointment. But living with a monkey isn' t one of them. "
Great comedic Timing.
Maybe the best quote of the series =)
Words to live by.
@@NormanCollier-nf7nu I understand. But this remark is worth to be repeated a 100 times. Do it!
Yes, in the history of TH-cam comments no one has ever quoted a line from a video. Grow up!@@NormanCollier-nf7nu
As if anyone needed this confirmed, I met JCC backstage at his gig in Galashiels a few years back and he was even nicer of a man than you imagine him to be. A total gentleman. A living legend, glad he’s still appreciated and on these shows.
That's so good to hear. Legend.
Can concur. I met him this week recording a show and he was incredibly kind. The coolest guy I have ever met.
Would loved to meet him, he seems like one of those down to earth intelligent cool people that dont try to be so. Unlike a lot of people on tv
@@nez9751 He absolutely is. A true gent and extremely funny man.
You lucky bugger.
“But living with a monkey isn’t one of them” not what I thought he was going to say lol
What a wonderful pairing of guests to have someone like him so descriptive and poetic with his words, and on the other side someone visually impaired, who most likely appreciated the viviv story telling.
Good point
Yeah, of all of the panellists that he (Chris McCausland) had been paired with, this one one that I think I saw the most fun he had. Usually, he'd be looking a little blue and confused. But not a second of John Cooper Clarke's wordings did he looked as such.
Why would he appreciate it more than the other guests? Were they provided a movie version of the story to watch?
@@Leto_0 only in a way. Body language ,facial expressions, even clothing add to any storytelling. Since that visual component is lost to Chris you might say he got less out of the story. But JCC’s unique command of the English language paired with the fact JCC isn’t very animated and wears dark sunglasses( which hides his eyes completely) means Chris is getting close to the same experience as the others. But even then Judy Love makes the point; out of everyone, who LOOKS like they lived with monkey?
@@Leto_0he wouldn't. He would appreciate other guests less
Jonny is a national treasure. He’s sharper than a razor and lyrically dwarfs those around him.
"He didn't want to leave his precious pal with any old schmuck"
This man is such a wonderful poet
I come back to this video time and time again just to hear john says "UnGAINly HeaP"
"tree for a walk." 😂
If this had been Bob Mortimer, he would have given him a cushion to lie on and fed him 'monkey nourishment'.
It would be his friend's monkey, Donald Potatoe-Sack.
Monkey nourishment! :)
@@cherylrhodes1925 You're right, I've altered it to the correct version!
They only do that for owls ...
Would he probably name the monkey 'Davis'?
Did not think anyone could beat Bob Mortimer's stories but this really did. I knew immediately it was true.
charles dance had a story of a chimp coming to his house for tea
i'm sorry, this story is good, but nowhere near thief and shrubbery good.
Yah except with Bob’s all the details are so disconnected and implausible that you think it has to be a lie. Here they are so colorful and fascinating but still make total sense that you think there’s no way someone could have this vivid and consistent an imagination. They are different sides of the same coin
@@googlygoo9472 it's AS GOOD as "Theft And Shrubbery". It's a tie. "We do beg your pardon..."
Also the whole "Inspector Bytheway" - "DAD!" part from the Gulf Stream Halloween Mask story is hilarious, even though that part is Lee. Amazing improvisation.
I love JCC. For 5 years, he picked up his weekly copy of The Spectator from me. Despite his twang, he resides in Essex now and is extremely well loved.
“As if t’were a cat.”
"Monkey Wrench" - the sort of amazingly witty reply I usually come up with ....... on the way home.
What a story! And of course what a storyteller!
You could tell it was true when he quickly back-peddled to their first encounter. Truly recalling something, it doesn't always come back in sequential order, especially something that long ago.
He did not need to say anything after "I shared a flat with a monkey" and we would know it was true.
Yep, it's one of those "so preposterous it just has to be true" type.
After sharing a flat with arch German singer, Warhol Superstar and general counter-culture icon Nico, I suppose a monkey was a walk in the park
It shrieked once… and once only.
He should be a poet 😂😂
He is 🙂
I thought it was only Bob Mortimer who told stories like this.
When they started saying "Who of us can you imagine living with a monkey" or whatever I was like "Excepting Bob Mortimer? Only JCC."
Exactly my thoughts 😂
there werent any names named
I don't know - Henning Wehn, James Acaster, Raj Bisram, Rhod Gilbert, and Greg Davies (to name a few!) have told some wild stories in their times on this show.
Didn't Charles Dance once had a chimpanzee over for tea?
I would like to listen for hours and days the life story of this man. What a brilliant narrator, and what an interesting life. ("He is exquisite")
I'm reading his autobiography at the moment. It's very entertaining. You can here his voice as you read it. That slow lugubrious style.
His audiobook is On audible with him narrating it and it is very good , I wanna be yours, it’s called
In the pub they met Bob Mortimer with his sick owl.
And his cat with three broken ankles.
@@joshhodkinson9677 75% of them
I'm not British, and I've only recently found this show and started to binge it. John is an instant favourite. I also like David and Bob.
I started about 5 years ago with this , and Q.I. , 8 out of 10 cats ...and a few others I got so tired of US TV
Finally, some real competition for Bob Mortimer.
Watched this earlier I haven't laughed so much in ages ,everyone who takes part is funny .
I love how no nonsense JCC is when it comes to talking
Mitchell - "I didn't think they had them in the early 70's?"
JCC - "Well they had 'em"
This is fabulous. And beautifully told by JCC. 🐒
"Did the monkey know any tricks?" I'd say renting a flat is a pretty good trick for an animal
Depending on the landlord, it can be a decent trick for a human.
If it were a Bob Mortimer story, the monkey would definitely not be simply called Charlie.
"Monkey wrench" lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Seeing John Cooper Clarke in the flesh, live, in the next couple of weeks for the first time. Only four or five decades late. Looking forward to it. EDIT: (two weeks later) Saw JCC live tonight and what a dude! Talk about STAR presence for such a tiny, wiry little bloke. Punchy poems and funny as f**k. RECOMMENDED!! And of course he ended, ss he must, with the complete I Want To Be Yours! :)
I've seen him perform twice, and he is brilliant.
I think I’ve seen every edition of “Would I Lie to you”, and this is the funniest story I have ever heard! Just brilliant!
The man's a legend so naturally funny
Funniest thing about this clip is "They got me rumbled"
I wish I could have a sit down with JCC and have him tell me stories about his life.
JCC is exactly as you see him on TV
Get his autobiography. It's full of bonkers stories like this.
@@bargepoled Thank you, I'm looking it up now.
True. Its in his autobiography. Which is a fantastically candid and funny book. JCC is national Treasure
What an absolute star ⭐️
Thanks Wilty for introducing me to John Cooper Clarke
Unreal,but totally believable coming from John, hilarious
An ungainly heap hahahah
Lee quick fire wit... A monkey wrench... Brilliant
@@aberdeenstu1 - I had never seen that possibility. Maybe that's true.
This unique experience is expanded upon in JCC's superb autobiography
😭 New ep I needed this
The man is a genius.
This was absolutely hilarious.
I said "Monkey Wrench" before Lee Mack said it ..... but this may be the 10th time I've watched this.
I was so disappointed that this was true. That made it masterful comic storytelling from an eccentric character's life. But if he'd been making it up on the fly, that would have been off-the-charts genius.
Yah it would have been on of the most thorough, complete, and creative lies/story telling I would have ever heard
If it's too good to be false, it probably is true.
Brilliant. This was great
On a par with Bob Mortimer.. just love him
"Monkey Wrench". Lee at the top of his game.
Watch it again.. l rekn Jon knew exactly what he was up to dropping the wrench line... he was waiting for the penny...& Lee got in, as per.
@@baabaabaa2293 I saw this episode on TV last night, and I thought they were all a bit slow to pick up on it. Like you said, JCC knew exactly what he was saying.
@@baabaabaa2293 But nobody needed to say it.
@@Mayaman67 l don't get what ur saying mate...l shdntve mentioned it, Lee?
The rock and roll Alan Bennett.
One of my few absolute heroes
The funniest WILTY. Crying with laughter.
Just had to watch again .. hilarious
Don't u just love John's Manchester accent
I could listen to John C C all day long
Where can we find new episodes of this? Or any 2021 videos!?
I adore this man, I'm jealous of the monkey 😆😆😆😀💞🦘🇦🇺👍.
I absolutely love this man!
“Monkey Wrench”
“YESSS!!!”
Because it's been rehearsed again and again and finally they've got it right
@@nocraic k
The way he says "a monkey" cracks me up.
A brilliant bloke.
There are some guests who just enjoy telling a funny story and offer up all the details voluntarily, which you’d never do if you were telling a lie. I think JCC is still an outstanding guest, but the ones I enjoy the most are those who deliberately make it as difficult as possible for the other side to work out whether the story is true or false. Rhod Gilbert, Bob Mortimer, Richard Osman and Miles Jupp are good examples in my opinion. They just seem to have a good knack for the game :)
Very funny 😄 ,it screeched ,once and once only lol
"WHAT DO YA WANT!"🤣
In jcc s autobiography he describes this period. So I knew it was true from the off. Read the book. It’s good
I'm not surprised as it sounds like he's told that story a few times
Didn't know he had a book!
I will... thanks for that!
@@baabaabaa2293 called. i wanna be yours.
@@highdownmartin thanks for the reply mate.. appreciate it!
I'll get onto it in the morning.
@@baabaabaa2293 it's a brilliant read. As you would expect from a poet the wordsmithery is top level.
Once and once only 😂
Legend !
I bet the monkey had a crazy hairstyle and even wore earings .
Loving this show here in America.
I'm a Brit living in the US, and I can't get my American friends to watch Wilty. I keep telling them, but they never do.
What!? LET ME AT EM!
@@cricketjam - I wish. But it's their loss. Some things I don't recommend because I don't think they'll get them, but I know from watching reaction channels that Americans do love this show. Not too many cultural references that understandably go over your heads.
@@renejean2523 Maybe the show needs more guns.
@@cricketjam - That would actually attract a lot of people that I know, sadly. I don't see the appeal at all.
How fun would be that! To share a flat with a monkey, imagine that adventure! :))
I work with monkeys. Sharing a flat with one would be one of the worst possible living experiences you could have.
That would be a nightmare.
@@earthknight60 my missus had three.. ones still here!
Bloody kids!
No sleep, nothing safe
@@earthknight60 not if you're John Cooper Clarke, it would seem!
I love him so much!
Karl Pilkinton would love that.!
I knew it was true immediately because I’ve read JCC’s fabulous autobiography multiple times, it’s one of my favourite books and he’s one of my favourite human beings ❤
Karl Pilkington would love this.
So there was this fella who lived with a monkey. Took it out for walks an that.
STOP. TALKING. SHITE.
Took me longer than I was hoping to find a pilky reference here
It must be a Machester thing. Them and Ian Brown.
Great storyteller
Wait is this a new episode? I don’t think I’ve ever seen this.
Yep, series 15 episode 1. Aired on Friday.
@@rubeusignis1293 and for once on at 8 and not 9 as I seem to always miss it at that time.
@@rubeusignis1293 thanks!
I'm left with the question...was it potty trained?
Of course he did. Next to Bob Mortimer he's a favourite!
What a fellow is our John, sorry, doctor John.
Brilliant end very entertaining show👍
I love this. JCC is so funny
I live for the show that has JCC and Bob Mortimer on the same team.
i love this man so much!!!❤❤❤
JCC a treasure to the world
JCC The Bard of Salford.
Imagine the monkey telling his mates he shared a flat with JCC !
SO, SO, FUNNY...DEV..❤❤
I read JCC's recent book last summer. It is seriously laugh out loud! I actually read the last third of it with his accent going through my head…..try it.
@68blues. What is the title of the book? Thanks.
@@mikewalker7366…..Sorry Mike, only just saw your question. It's called I Wanna Be Yours. It's totally superb!
0:51
Wasn't expectating that.
I read his book, what a hoot
is that a new series of would i lie to you? because it has been ages
yes
Somewhere a monkey is saying ..."YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS .... BUT "
The true poet of the working class👍
JCC 🤣👏🏻

BBC i player is your friend
