@@celeste6445 perfectly timed question! The Guardian recently did an interview with Simon and Miquita on the 20th (20th!!!) anniversary of Popworld www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/may/01/miquita-oliver-and-simon-amstell-on-popworld-turning-20
By this point in Popworld everyone knew what the format was - that essentially Simon & Macquita would take the piss - so I have no sympathy for pop stars who went on there not willing to play the game
They wern’t ‘up themselves’ at all, they were a decent bad with some really good songs. The lead singer guy just seems overly anxious here, not sure why he did this tbh its as if he didnt have a clue what he was getting into
I am incredibly grateful for the frontman of 'The Kooks', and even more so for his incredibly fragile ego, without it this interview would not have been so fucking hilarious. Amstell personifies great British humour.
He should have just said “yeah we went to a stage school but we studied music not acting” but instead made himself look really insecure & embarassed - it was a bit cringey. Miss Simon’s hilarious interviews though 😂
Painful to watch those two, especially the singer. He seems like he was hoping to treat this interview as a showcase of how special and mysterious he is, but couldn't quite bend it that way when he couldn't figure out if he got Amstells jokes or not.
this is the best interview ever! poor luke he looked liked he didnt want to be there in thefirst place. the best part of the interview is when luke and hugh closed there eyes and had to imagine katy and then tell her that her first album was enough to make them cough of their own liver. thats was funny.
I actually know the stage school and they offered me a place there but i had to provide 5000 pounds up front. That document was mailed straight to Lukes Rectum.
Simon is currently touring the US with his new stand up show numb, I doubt he is installing internet microwaves (did you just put two words together in a mad way?). Fall from grace my arse, simon is hilarious.
aw this was horribly cute! I love how Luke handled the whole ex girlfriend thing pretty well, others would have been like "SHUT UP!" but he was pretty chill. How cute is he? Gnah! Luke
Simon Amstell is a piss-taking legend. I rewatch his Buzzcocks episodes with glee. Classic TV.
He was such a legend. Sorely missed on TV.
I miss Simon Amstell. Does anyone know what happened to him?

I guess it is quite off topic but do anyone know a good website to stream new movies online ?
@Zayden Lennox Try Flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
"when a band calling themselves 'the kooks' comes along...its going to cause concern" absolute genius
Haha.
I actually went to school with these guys. It was a stage school
😏
NICE OF YOU TO CLARIFY THIS. CHEERS MATE.
Yeah, no chance he kicked alex in the face
How where they like?
Tell me they were cunts I dont care if they wernt really just tell me they were
THEY'VE ALL GOT THE SAME HAIR! HAHAHAHA
ahahaha
Common Unity Noticed that straight away and creased 😂😂
Amstell is brilliant, but I'm amazed he doesn't get punched more often.

Yep. 👌
Stop being so stuck up.
I love you, Simon Amstell.
Amazing how up themselves a lot of the indie lot from the mid-2000s were. Tragic.
Glad that era ended.
@Craig wells what the fuck did this guy just write!?
They wern’t ‘up themselves’ at all, they were a decent bad with some really good songs. The lead singer guy just seems overly anxious here, not sure why he did this tbh its as if he didnt have a clue what he was getting into
There were some amazing bands from this era but the kooks weren’t one of them
@@lukeporcher6378 yes they were dipshit
@@Liam.2000 nah they were fucking shit

Amstell personifies great British humour.
Simon Amstell is a hero
So, he went to stage school then.
Luke made it so much worse for himself though, had he just played along and not looked embarrassed it would have been fine.
from the very beginning "you are the kooks, the kookikooks" i knew it would be hilarious. one of the best interviews ever
She runs up to you, it's Katie Melua. I DIED
I loved this show back in the day! Still miss it.
I went to the same stage school as these guys
ITS NOT A STAGE SCHOOL
He should have just said “yeah we went to a stage school but we studied music not acting” but instead made himself look really insecure & embarassed - it was a bit cringey. Miss Simon’s hilarious interviews though 😂
Loved how he called out all these stars who thought they were really special.
Every time I feel depressed, I come here to laugh!
Just when you thought that it would be too awkward to bring up the ex-girlfriend again, in comes Simon with his melua shaped wrecking ball. Genius.
The Kooks are pricks. At least with Simon it's all a comic act, and it is funny.
I would have expected a guy writing rock songs about erectile disfunction would be a bit funnier.
Those indie haircuts 🤣
I wish I could go back to when I watched this on T4. Good old days.
Everything about Simone's approach to this interview is just hilarious. I haven't laughed this hard in forever!
Love Simon, don't have much an opinion on The Kooks... but I do sympathize with Luke. As funny as it was, it was probably really painful for him...
He destroys the kooks with some style here. Hilarious!

He just had anxiety man, not sure why he was even there
Simon amstell, easily the funniest interview in the UK. Buzzcocks sucks without him
this is the best interview ever! poor luke he looked liked he didnt want to be there in thefirst place. the best part of the interview is when luke and hugh closed there eyes and had to imagine katy and then tell her that her first album was enough to make them cough of their own liver. thats was funny.
thanks!!!! it's so focking funny, it was deleted some time ago
Brilliant
They all went to the same barbers.
'Even in the hard times, no'.
And the 'not-so-hard times' too, by the sounds of it!
the amount of curles is too damn high
I actually know the stage school and they offered me a place there but i had to provide 5000 pounds up front.

Absolute 100% Gold, only Popworld got away with this type of interview 😆
I did coke with Luke once. He wasn't all that bad, but then again, he did give me free drugs.
For real? How was he like?
@@The01Lawliet He was really nice, tbh.
@@therealslimadie hahaha cool , but did you really do coke with him? Are you from brighton too?
@@therealslimadie so nice of you to answer even after 9 years haha
@@The01Lawliet 😇 And no, at the time London.
Feels like in the Lord of the ring!
Man this is still good.
came on this purely because i was told simon amstell was hilarious in it, simon
Si looks liek he should be in the Kooks
I'm crying 😂😂😂
I love the kooks
Ok I'm screaming 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Luke just looks so pissed off aw haha
Poor Luke, he was a good sport though, unlike the many guests on Buzzcocks that couldn’t handle Simon.
Simon was harsh here, but you gotta love his pisstakeability.
He's a genius!
wow its like 8 frames per second
Met Luke Pritchard once and he was a sound lad. Got wrekt here though.
he has balls of steel
lol luke's SO pissed :D
they only need 1 person to interview realy so funny
Simon Amstell The original Amelia Dimoldenberg
Not even close
Luke is sooooo mad when they mention Katie, ohhhhh.
"I listened to the first album, and that was enough to make me vomit out my own liver".
Haha edited at the end to look like Tom didn't fuck off when he said it's good to get it all out hahaha
Oh Simon :)) this is great.. I'm bit sorry for Luke though :') poor guy.
Simon's savage! Hahahahaha.
The poor guys... Not able for Simon at all, bless. He he he
Simon Amstell is hilarious here.
They came as Simon
Infamous. Their manager must've been gutted. Career suicide.
When i first saw Amstell I thought he was Luke Pritchard...so to find this is kinda jokes
He's taking the piss. Don't worry if it's gone over your head.
I love the Kooks... but LOL
Did they actually think he was a psychiatrist? :] I
HHAHAH! they are SOOO SCARED of him!! Where are they now, eh?
Simon is currently touring the US with his new stand up show numb, I doubt he is installing internet microwaves (did you just put two words together in a mad way?).
Fall from grace my arse, simon is hilarious.
luke really really seems pissed off. But I can understand him!
haha they all have the same hair :D
...it's Katie Melua 😅😅😅😅😅
and imagine yo.... You're, you're eyes aren't closed ;|
This is giving me Bjork interview vibes
ended their career, where's his MBE
haha the guy is like "oh I can't..I just can't ...it's personal" :D he's soo confused ... and the interviewer askes about ex gf again and again :)))))
Not the sharpest tool in the box, is luke.
The trust Tree
hi
Not true, I hear Luke Pritchard is installing fax ovens for Sky.

he's so uncomfortable haha
Little bit cruel this one
most awkward interview i've ever seen
God, I was trying to forget the awful late 00s style but don't mind nostalgia.
WAT KINDA POTATO U FILM DIS ON? LOL
I RECKON PROB MARIS P

This was so awkward
Haha
Lol
Poor luke
aw this was horribly cute! I love how Luke handled the whole ex girlfriend thing pretty well, others would have been like "SHUT UP!" but he was pretty chill. How cute is he? Gnah! Luke
katie manure! :)))
thekooks were always absolute shite. Simon knew this

I thought they were decent enough sports, took it a bit too seriously which makes for great comedy
these fellas should just be more interesting. problem solved
Luke Pritchard is so beautiful & v talented
😂
i will kill simon amstell, how dare you talk to him that way, to that beautiful man, Luke Pritchard
