The Apollo London is actually Hammersmith Oden theatre a one time cinema that became a famous London concert venue It’s a small venue great acoustics. As a young man regularly saw bands and artists preform there probably the most famous in 1983 Dire Straits Alchemy simply along with Queen Wembley 1986 and Led Zeppelin Earls Court London 1975 the best three concerts I’ve ever seen
"Smarties tubes on cats legs to make them walk like a robot" is a reference to an appearance of his on the show 'QI'. It was a letter scramble and he made that phrase out of a jumble of nothing.
I've seen that before it was utterly brilliant, especially alan's reaction when he was all how the fuck he you come up wit that? & bill's gay elf romp thing was really put to shame.
The funniest part for me was when Britt thought it was the Apollo NY and that was the only Apollo on earth. 🤣😂Then when she wasn't getting the English references but the audience were laughing their socks off!
@@nullakjg767 that's one of the most retarded statements iv ever read.... The UK Apollo was started hundreds of years before the US was even discovered.... And is mostly knows for rock shows including.... The Beatles, rolling stones, black Sabbath and a shit ton more including black performers... Bob Marley spent most of his career there for instance.
You should check out some of the "8 out of ten cats" stuff with Jimmy and Sean lock. Sean was one of the few folks I ever saw make Jimmy carr Crack up. Rachel's ski costume is a great moment.
Hammersmith Apollo in London- famous venue originally called the Hammersmith Odeon (or the Hammy-O). There are LOTS of British references in this video.
"I'm not really a shoe girl... I have 4 boxes of shoes that I've accumulated throughout life. I just bought some new sneakers a couple days ago. I'm not a shoe girl." -Britt.
@@Isleofskye well theres 1-Monuple, 2-couple, 3-Triple, 4-Quadruple, 5-Quintuple, 6-sextuple, 7-septuple, 8-octuple, 9-nonuple, 10-decuple. and from there it just goes on and on....so 7 would be a Sepathlon? and that would make 6 events a Sexathon?
I'm dead at the "im not a shoe shopping girl" just to follow it up with the realization that you bought a pair two days prior is AMAZING lmao. "maybe I am a shoe girl"
Smarties are sweets (candy to you) that comes in very slim long cardboard tubes. A cat's leg would be a tight fit. Hammersmith is a posh area of London.
There is a thing about fast food places that have to change the recipe for bread in Europe because the level of sugar makes it a dessert, not a hamburger bun.
The trick to chopping onions and not crying is to use a really sharp knife, because using a dull knife crushes the onion and releases way more of the fumes that make you cry.
Naked Attraction is the show he was talking about. A clothed person looks at 6 naked people to get a date with. They are eliminated one by one until there are only 2 left. Then the clothed person gets naked and finally picks the person to go on a date with.
Deca is a prefix from the Greek Deka meaning ten. As in decade means 10 years, decathlon meaning 10 athletic events or decahedron as having 10 sides for few examples.
The cyclists getting the speed record at the level crossing(train crossing) was hit by said train.... Really left his mark in the record books/The wall 20 feet away😂
When chopping onions its nothing to do with chopping the tops or bottoms off, it's really 2 things, 1 is you need a sharp knife like really sharp, the 2nd is to breathe through your mouth, most people don't realise because they looking down and concentrating they close their mouth and breathe through nose, if you keep your mouth open you don't cry, I'm a chef
I think the reason some of the humour is over your head is because he's appearing at the Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith, London. The other side of the pond and the humour is full of in-humour. This is a very well-known theatre in London - if you've grown up with English lore and humour as I have being born and bred in South Africa.
He discovered something, it's hard to be shocked or "offended" when it's quick one-liners. I def lmao with the "catholic church stand up, sit down..." one, def wasn't expecting that
The crying portion all has to do with the skin. The onion releases sulfoxides when the skin is damaged. There are several ways to not cry when cutting onions. 1. Best way is to not cut off both ends. Ok to cut off one, but not both. 2. Cut under cold running water. 3. Use an extremely sharp knife. There are other methods, (freeze it etc...) but they don't work nearly as well as the ones above.
We've made bread from scratch and let me tell you. The bread in stores, is like eating a sugar loaf. I don't even eat bread anymore, unless it's a rare treat because I want a grilled cheese sandwhich.
The reason they're all getting the jokes is because it's a London crowd. It's the Apollo in London, Not New York. Lots of places have an Apollo Theatre. We have one here in Victoria in an outer suburb of Melbourne called Hawthorn. Apollo was the Greek god of music and poetry. So many places have theatres called The Apollo.
Smarties is a Nestle candy they are tiny beads of Chocolate covered in a layer of candy they come in several colours all mixed, and the "Tubes" are just the round cardboard cylinders that they come in, think of a toilet roll inner but twice as long and thicker with a plastic cap on either side and thats a Smarties Tube, they also come in smaller boxes that look like they should hold medication, but who wants the small sizes anyway
@@jayhop Smarties are sold primarily in Europe, Canada, South Africa, Australasia and the Middle East. Smarties are not distributed (except via parallel import) in the United States, where the rights to the name belong to the Smarties Candy Company, which manufactures its own hard tablet sweet under the registered trademark name Smarties. Smarties originate in the UK USA Smarties are not true Smarties if you want the real one order them off Amazon.
@@jayhop I live in South Africa but Jimmy is in the UK and I'm pretty sure he is talking about the same Smarties we also have something in my country called Astros which are similar but round and a little smaller and a little more crunchy
Alan Carr is not related to Jimmy. He is a famous UK personality. I am in the US and am obsessed with UK comedy. I watch many of their variety shows. I watch it so much I understand all of the references and British slang and all the celebs and personalities. Even when they reference different areas around the UK as well.
Jimmy and Alan are NOT related but Alan is Pretty Funny aswell and he has his own Show called Chatty Man and Jimmy has been on it before where he answers the question "are we related?....yeah hes my mum!"
The show is in the London England Hammersmith Apollo (I still call it by its old name Hammy Odeon). Part of the reason you didn't know the people in the audience is that they are all UK folks. Nothing to do with age!
Damn, 49p for a loaf of bread, when was this filmed? I'm not in the UK, but I'm paying more than 2 or 3 Euro for a loaf of bread these days. I've also heard about American bread being terrible. I've never had it myself, but judging from pictures it often doesn't even look like bread.
'Live at the Apollo' is a regular series of recorded gigs, normally a established stand up doing a intro and opening then short routines by more up and coming comedians with the opener doing the bridge between them, its a really good way to discover new comedians. the bit about prince harry was a reference to questions about his parentage, the alternate being James hewitt who looks a lot like him and had an affair with his mother. may or may not be true but frankly at this point Charles is is father Hewitt at most a sperm donor
He is at the Apollo in Hammersmith in London. The Prince Harry reference and who do you think you are? is because many people do not think he is King Charles son, but Major James Hewitts who Diana had an affair with
Fairly certain this is the Apollo Hammersmith in London... I saw Dolly live there years ago. Same esteem for venue, just different continent 😊
yeah majority of those jokes would fly over american heads
that is awesome you got to see Dolly!!

Lol yeah definitely talking about the wrong apollo.
We always new about the American one.
They made a fucking film about it.
Way to long though.
Jimmy is the master of the one liners and the surprise delivery.
Especially if you're a sound sleeper.
true from what I've seen
And has an infinite amount of jokes in the bank for every situation also. Spontaneously sharp as a tack and quick to pull out a pre prepared joke for any heckler situation. Absolute legend!

Subway stores in the UK/EU can't call the bread, bread. It has such a high sugar content that it is considered a cake by EU standards.
The funniest part for me was when Britt thought it was the Apollo NY and that was the only Apollo on earth. 🤣😂Then when she wasn't getting the English references but the audience were laughing their socks off!

I’m going to see him in Nashville in October and I can’t wait!
Hey Britt! The BBC reference is to the British Broadcasting Corporation, as this is in London - hence a somewhat 'toned-down' routine...!
The Apollo London., Smarties are like M&Ms in a cardboard tube.
There is an Apollo theater outside the US? who would have guessed ;-)
There are Theatres, sorry, TheatERs outside THe USA? Who knew.
There are 250 Theatres in London :)
It's a theater that used to be called the Hammersmith Apollo in the London area called Hammersmith. It's now called the Eventim Apollo.
The Apollo in London is almost 25 years older than the one in New York ..
It's the Apollo in Hammersmith London. Hence the British references.
You have to check out Jimmy Carr’s riskiest jokes… be brave it’s hilarious

American subway bread is legally classified as cake in Ireland, iirc.

the prince harry joke was about prince Charles not actually being his dad
King Charles the 3rd now.. not that I'm a fan other then his charity work he comes across as a massive prick.
ohhhhh lol that makes sense
British audience in London. (different Apollo) Love the references.
It's really easy to make your own bread. Plus you know whats in it.
Smarties are sweets (candy to you) that comes in very slim long cardboard tubes. A cat's leg would be a tight fit. Hammersmith is a posh area of London.
It’s the Hammersmith Apollo in West London. I think they changed its name Eventim Apollo. I saw Dave Chapelle there two years ago
BBC is the British Broadcasting Company. The performance is at the Apollo in Hammersmith England
He's not doing his show at the Apollo Theater in New York. He's at the Apollo Theatre in London. The BBC is the British Broadcasting Corporation.
the BBC he's referring to is the British Broadcasting Corporation, it's a tv network.
Smarties are sweets or Candy as you'd say, and come in a cardboard tube 😂 love ur reactions ❤
In the US you might know them as 'Rockets' ? They're like M+M's essentially.
There is a thing about fast food places that have to change the recipe for bread in Europe because the level of sugar makes it a dessert, not a hamburger bun.

Please let us know how it went.
The Apollo theatre is in Hammersmith, London.

It's actually the Apollo in London, they changed the name From the Hammersmith Odeon. Great content cheers from Canada
Its because they are in the uk thats why they are getting the references
Deca is a prefix from the Greek Deka meaning ten. As in decade means 10 years, decathlon meaning 10 athletic events or decahedron as having 10 sides for few examples.
Lol you're wasting time trying to explain things to Americans
Jokes aside, this just shows me that the news in the US, is only about the US ^^
Or only about reality tv... basicly what we think the us is :D
The real trick to onions is a sharp knife and moving quickly
Ask Jeeves is now called " ASK "

In UK, Subway has to pay a pastry tax on its bread there, or else change the recipe. I'm not sure which they picked. Because so much sugar in it.
This APOLLO is in England, and these are all UK stars. plus the DEC in Latin is short for 10. Hence DECember for an example.
bad example, whats december got to do with 10?
This is the Apollo in London !
