I love how Paul will just be silently making an incredulous face for minutes on end and then suddenly say something about 10 times funnier that tops all the other jokes
Better than the Brian Blessed one, she seems far more natural and relaxed, while seemed (to me at least) to be going over the top deliberately. More than once I just wished he'd shut up.
The thing about the Turkish airforce saying 'en garde' is actually 'on guard' meaning the international emergency 'guard' frequency of 121.5 that would be used to contact a straying aircraft.
I have a great ambivalence towards Jeremy Clarkson. He was 100% wrong for punching a Top Gear producer and deserved to be fired from his job. However, I support 100% his decision to punch Piers Morgan. And I would encourage others to do likewise, whenever the opportunity presents itself.
Does anyone else think they'd struggle to be in a conversation with Jacob Rees Mogh without knocking his teeth in the second he smarmily goes to say anything?
Clarkson was wrong about the BBC being unable to sack him anymore. He had been the guest presenter 13 times between 2002 and 2015, but this was the last appearance he ever had on HIGNFY.
I liked it the first couple of times, but the repeated attempts got weaker and weaker. That's not a dig at Osman, Hislop overdoes it at times too. I prefer how Merton does it - if he thinks of something funny he says it, but if he doesn't he keeps out of it. Also, I thought Clarkson took it rather well. Sometimes people get bent out of shape - usually politicians - but they need to learn to laugh and carry on. One of the reasons Boris Johnson achieved some popularity on HIGNIFY was that he *mostly* took the abuse and laughed it off.
@@DeanMoxley87 it's everything to do with the BBC. They commission the programme and have final say on what airs. If the BBC didn't want Clarkson guest hosting then he definitely wouldn't be on there.
@jamesrowden303 So your first response is to be rude about the host and then berate me for asking why? Okay, I know all I need to know about you. Enjoy your day :)
Cf. the Turkish Air Force pilot challenging the Russian intruder with "En garde!"; he was showing off his aircraft recognition. The aircraft in question was a Sukhoi Su-24, which has the NATO reporting name of... Fencer. So Ian was on the right track with his comment about a fencing championship.
That's not correct at all and hopefully I've just missed the joke. The Turkish pilot was saying "on guard", which means "call me on the guard channel". The guard channel is set aside for aviation emergencies and the like. Source: I used to be an air traffic controller.
I'm not British so my only exposure to this show is through TH-cam, but man is it so much funnier than anything produced in the Czech Republic. Even if I don't understand some of the jokes and political references. Wish Clarkson did more episodes, his "no fucks given" personality is very fitting to this.
@@annother3350 YES! Thank you! I know Clarkson can be...well, you know; Clarkson, when it comes to the environment, politics and so on, but he is a very funny - extremely witty person who is fun to watch and I for one, really like him! I don't see why people cannot see past the political framework with which they view the world and simply enjoy someone whose genuinely funny. So to attack him like that was very undignified, and quite sophomoric. One final point: In the U.S. the "Left" has a lot to learn about consumable imagery. Someone like Osman, should be on a list of people (Entertainers) who DO NOT go on political humor attacks like what we witnessed here because - physically - he looks like the image of what Right Wing people associate with the Left. "Ivory Tower Elitist" is a phrase that's thrown around a lot among people on the right. The Left has to learn to put attractive and neutral faces forward because as juvenile as it sounds; it works.

@@kettle_of_chris Well, I dont know if I agree with you entirely or maybe I'd word it differently -- I suppose what you're getting at is that Jeremy has been an 'easy' target or rich pickings to mock for a number of years as he is the epitomy of the 'old school bloke' who likes fast cars and fast women and is definitely NOT politically correct. I think I'm like you -- I can take his misogyny as what it is -- a joke -- and you can tell he is a nice guy with good intentions

Furthermore I assume you're in the UK and since I consider you and your fellow citizens to be the custodians of the English language, I am additionally content with what you wrote.

I particularly enjoyed "CLARKSON". I only got to see a 1 hour 'best of' on TH-cam. It was hysterically funny in spite of it being shamelessly Tory it was nevertheless very Entertaining.
@@RIXRADvidz Clarkson's net worth is about 50-60 mill and earns about 20 mill a year, Osman's net worth is about 2 mill so I dunno how you figured that out XD
Watching Richard repeatedly flay Clarkson is like watching that scene from The Holy Grail, with Richard as the rabbit and Clarkson las every single knight. Never seen or heard him be outright flatly rude, quite shocked. But, it's Clarkson so I totally understand.
18:26 - wait - isn't that Sadiq Khan, the current Mayor of London. Ian is referencing the fact that Boris previously hosted the show and they went on to become the Mayor of London (and then the Prime Minister!)
I’ve heard people make fun of Jacob RM for the longest time on radio shows (American here) and this is the first time I’ve seen him on video. Surreal, like watching a fictional character. Then Victoria hit on him!
Can't believe this was five years ago... how time fl... waaaaaait a minute. Series 50 has 10 episodes... this covers up to 9. Were you unable to find the last one involving David Mitchell as host?
You're right, so it is. I put this video together back in 2016 so I can't remember why it's not there. I think I simply just forgot the episode and have never noticed it. So yeah, there is going to be an extra video with clips from that episode that I'll uplaod in the upcoming days. Thank you for telling me :)
I don't know what Osman does on British Television - like what shows he's on - but Clarkson is a world famous celebrity. Translation: People love him. Top Gear as BBC's highest grossing show according to 60 Minutes. Additionally they stated that TopGear brought in 350 million viewers world wide. That viewership brought in a huge amount of revenue streaming into the BBC that enabled them to underwrite a lot of projects they may not have had the money for otherwise. Osman may be talented - I wouldn't know - but what I do know is that his name does not ring out like Clarkson so he should have known better.
@@kettle_of_chris He doesn't need to be a world celebrity to be witty. Osman is great at what he does and had every right to rib Clarkson, and Clarkson as a professional should be able to take it, which he does.
@@lidbass (sighs) oh for fucks-sake! There's Satire, and then there's being verbally abusive. Clearly Osman has skills in the Satire department as demonstrated on plenty of other shows in which he was a guest, or even better still; as host. The exchange between Clarkson and Osman that included Osman's remark that Clarkson's new show was [to be aired] on "Amazon Past-Their-Prime". Okay YES that was funny and YES it was satire. I didn't think I had to clarify or acknowledge that first before making the point that Osman is not famous like Clarkson. He may be popular in the UK and I am not saying he's a bad guy, or lacking in talent, it's just that he's (at best) a C LIST guy attacking an A LIST guy. Yes I said; Attacking because while what he said was funny, it was mean. And you would have to be blind, or irretrievably stupid not to see that Osman's tone and demeanor while he made that statement clearly demonstrated a pe-existing dislike for Clarkson. Whether it's motivated by Clarkson's politics, I wouldn't know and I don't care. People around the world love Clarkson. Myself included. In the mid 2000's something like 300 million people tuned into to TopGear. Clarkson is mobbed by fans (like Hammond and May) wherever he goes and this guy (Osman) thinks he's got the CV to attack Clarkson like that? I don't think so. Osman didn't score any points with that remark. Maybe he didn't lose any either. Anyway who cares.
@@kettle_of_chris Ah, so you DON'T understand what satire is. Osman is perfectly right to make fun of Clarkson, since satire is laughing up, not down. Are you really suggesting that Osman should have kept quiet just because a number of people find Clarkson funny? Or because he earns more money than him? Right, so none of us can ever have a laugh at Elon Musk ever again. Got you. In case you didn't know, Osman was a hugely recognised producer and creator of some very popular programmes for the BBC, and only stepped out into presenting because they couldn't find someone to do a pilot, he did it and turned out to be very good. So, while I won't pretend that he has made as much money for the BBC (since that seems to be your yardstick) he certainly has created more programmes with more varied content than Clarkson. And is therefore in a position to criticise him. I would also point out that Clarkson was perfectly capable of coming back to Osman - which he did - and also came on the show at a moment when he knew he was going to get ripped to shreds by all the panel. Which he did. He was actually quite brave to do so, and you should be concentrating on that, not on a few witty barbs thrown out by a panel member. Whether Osman likes Clarkson or not is beside the point. His job there and then was to take the mickey out of Clarkson, which he did to great effect apparently since it's managed to piss you off so much. If you want some better examples of preconceived dislike, check out the episode when Johnson presents and see how they have a go at him, or any of the episodes where Farage appears (while I dislike him utterly I have to say that he does take the jokes against him in good spirit) or the wonderful moment when Hislop has a go at Johnny Mercer (which is not even funny!), or even worse when the whole lot of them spend thirty minutes ripping Angus Deayton . Then compare those to the relatively light treatment that Clarkson got. If you are simply saying that Osman went to far, well I would even agree with you. It would have been much more effective had he just got out a couple of gags and then moved on. But there you go. It was the heat of the moment, and it's easy with hindsight. But if you are really trying to say that Osman shouldn't say anything because Clarkson earns more money than you, well I can only reply that you must be an American. With, of course, a grin on my face, because that is satire. Have a good day, y'all.
That whole En Garde joke wound me up (mildly) when this first went on-air. It's not En Garde, it's On Guard, as in "Transmitting on the Guard frequency", an internationally recognised frequency that pilots monitor. I know, nerdy right.
Please explain how tampons or pads aren't seen as medically necessary! It's crazy! We're dumb about this is America too! On the up side the thing with the parachuting beavers was just laugh out loud great!
The problem with the tampon, or anything related to menstruation, is that most of the men in parliament are rather reluctant to discuss it. I swear you can almost hear some of them desperately wishing to themselves that they were back in The Good Old Days - when we got locked in a hut outside the village for a week. How are we supposed to get anything done when they literally struggle with the words?
Very funny and very sad how the people accepted hunger poverty and inequality for so many as necessary to keep the wealthy people safe from paying taxes

I've always thought that, even by the standards of HIGNFY, Richard Osman was way too harsh and insulting, bordering on outright rudeness, towards Jeremy Clarkson during this episode. It almost seemed as if Richard had a personal grievance against Clarkson.
"Isn't it embarrassing to be right wing?" "All I can say to that is 'Jeremy Corbyn'." Five year's later and that's still all this mug can say when the right faces criticism.
@UCSUJR5gomQv5QNLLf810Wfw yeah but those arent the only choices. And its not like they pretend trump is the lesser evil, they praise him as if hes sime genius and great leader... So your example doesnt fit here.

How are we supposed to get anything done when they literally struggle with the words?
💚💚💚💚.
1:30 James Lansdale is all of us
SO good!
Whos the wee guy on with Jon Richardson, Michael sheen was presenting.
Ian Hislop? He is on every single episode, along with Paul Merton. When you said 'wee guy' I thought you must have bee talking about Andy Hamilton.
David Hameron.
49:03 love this bit
Abbot has many Wigs.
Very funny and very sad how the people accepted hunger poverty and inequality for so many as necessary to keep the wealthy people safe from paying taxes
Why is that past tense?
I didn't get the reference to Angus Deayton at 24:19...
24:19 Ian says "I know who won the Nobel prize for economics".
What reference were you talking about?
The Nobel Prize for Economics was won by a Scottish fella called Angus Deaton that week lol
@@poolyboy81
😂 Thank you. My eyes fooled me initially into seeing a "y" in Deaton when there wasn't one. I couldn't therefore see the link. After you posted your response, I noticed my error. Much obliged 👍
@@poolyboy81 Is that the same Angus who used to host WILTY before Rob Brydon?
1:08:30 is that Sir Keir Starmer
Explains a lot now that Richard osman likes Corbyn glad I seen this
The counter isn't correct on the likes and dislikes.
no pockets in shrouds..dick Jeremy!!!!!
0:56 - Pristine quip from Osman toward clarkson.
Whoever did the captions cant spell received. Twice it was spelt wrong. Recieved
You should beat of bits of different guests
👍🏻.
I've always thought that, even by the standards of HIGNFY, Richard Osman was way too harsh and insulting, bordering on outright rudeness, towards Jeremy Clarkson during this episode. It almost seemed as if Richard had a personal grievance against Clarkson.
Had to Google whether Angus Denton actually did get a Nobel Prize for economics
Pierced Organ - as my daughter calls him . . . Boris Johnson - too blonde for the third Reich - Sean Lock . . .
24:15 Yeah, not *that* Angus Deaton.
Rather like 'invading the creek.
Richard absolutely roasted gammon Clarkson....loved it
21:47 yeah that didn't last long did it, Liz Land
4:41 Clarkson here haha
David Tennant is so hot!
58:30 It's "on Guard" - the aviation emergency frequency.
15:26 "We need another referendum cause we lost the last one ... illogical". Oh dear Ian, I hope that clip doesn't come back to haunt you.
Huh? How?
No he went to lancing - I thought that was something one did to a boil - still could have been worse, it could have been’Ding-lie
Elizzardbethland?
29:08 still relevant now
2:40 they go from witty to insulting in a heartbeat.....if someone said that to me, I deck them.
It's satire. You dont belong in that arena.
Kathryn Ryan says, "I'm a single mother not a King" ....... There's a flaw in that.
You mean, it went whoosh straight over my head.
Not a good episode with Clarkson there
"Isn't it embarrassing to be right wing?"
"All I can say to that is 'Jeremy Corbyn'."
Five year's later and that's still all this mug can say when the right faces criticism.
All he needs to say ! :-)
@@Nigee55 how is deflection a good answer? 😆
@UCSUJR5gomQv5QNLLf810Wfw yeah but those arent the only choices. And its not like they pretend trump is the lesser evil, they praise him as if hes sime genius and great leader... So your example doesnt fit here.
@@andreaskarlsson5251 when the alternative is worse ? Thought that's pretty clear :-)
@@Nigee55 irrelevant to the question. Just means that democrats should also be embarassed.
42:01. Invading the Creek…
Hang on, Geramy punched piers morgen???? Wow! what's the problem? i mean, who wouldn't??
