I think of Jo Brand like I think of a Bengal tiger. To encounter a tiger, up close, in the wild, would be terrifying, thrilling, fraught with the potential for being either totally annihilated or regarded as a curiosity, depending on its mood and whether you annoy or amuse it. But viewed from the safe remove of bars (the tiger) or the internet (Jo), then oh, what a magnificent and awe inspiring creature!
I love Jo so much. Definitely going to play that Christmas game this year. Luckily, we'll be around the pool then. Some cold water would be just the thing.
According to her wikipedia page, she's written two. Look Back in Hunger. The Autobiography (2009) Can't Stand Up For Sitting Down. The Autobiography - Part 2 (2010)
You can tell how intelligent she is from the speed she answered "prime number 1 more than a square" - compare to the average celebrity e.g. a Cats Does Countdown player.
This is completely true, once I was walking to the Co Op, and there was a complete, raw, rack of pork ribs lying on the ground outside the car park. It utterly bemused me as the Co Op doesn't sell complete racks of pork ribs (it's a very small Co Op). I never found out what happened to it. But mince...no.
An error in the description of the video: it says on 29: something the story would be about the cake but instead it was about her and her husband. There is no cake story
Can someone help me I'm trying to find a Would I lie to you? clip but have forgotten which one it is. All I remember is a panelist on Lee's team reads out a card, and it's such a weird thing that David stutters for a few seconds and ends up just asking 'Why?' Anyone know what clip this might be??
First time I saw the 3rd segment where she talks about the 'Mince' i though she meant 'Mints' like a mint candy or something like that, not mince meat. this has a whole new angle for me to think about now. Ew...
If you're going to watch British TV, you *have* to be up on your British jargon. I mean, I assume you didn't know Spag Bol either or you would immediately figured out it wasn't candy.
@@bcaye Spaghetti is an easy guess. Whether it's "bowl" or "bolognese" is irrelevant. But since "mints" is a thing - and far more plausible to find on the street - the confusion becomes "Why put mints in spaghetti?" Considering other spellings and definitions wouldn't be your first instinct. I mean if you weren't familiar with the Americanism, the phrase "I found rubbers in my 11yo daughter's room" has a very different but perfectly plausible meaning.
I forgot how sexist this show used to be. I remember David having to call out angus deayton for his misogyny towards anne widdecombe's looks. also as another person mentioned, the way the men reacted to her talking about smear tests (like babies who can't cope with the adult world - mostly lee!) and bill bailey's reaction when jo suggested she was balancing the tray in the bath on a part of herself that wasn't her knees. come on. you're grown men not 16 year old boys. must have been a nightmare being a female comic on with these back then. at the same time, this is one of the more progressive shows.
I dont mean to be insensitive but can anyone confirm if it is illegal to drive with a hearing impairment? Or in other words, can you apply for a drivers licence being hard of hearing? 😮
I don't understand the 'which one did you go for?' question by Lee regarding Jo cooking spag bol or macaroni cheese. I thought it was a straight forward question but everyone reacted like he was jesting. why?
I've not watched (literally paused while commenting) If someone's brave enough to watch this entire thing and then tell me how many times she mentions her husband, that also involves other references. Let me know and I'll transfer you the money to buy you your favourite pint in your local. 👍
@@robertpartridge7267it's a different joke everytime? Saying her entire comedic presence being a disgruntled wife is bad is the same as saying David's entire comedic presence of being a repressed mindleclass smartass is bad
@@robertpartridge7267 she's very funny. i miss her jokes about men but then she started to listen to self centred cry babies like yourself and stopped telling those jokes.
Jo is about as funny as Police arresting an Autistic child. She likes to belittle men like she is some sort of catch herself. When I first learnt she was in mental hospitals I actually thought she used to be a patient. If you listen to her she has this annoying habit of saying 'erm' after every joke she attempts, and we can't forget she thinks it is funny throwing battery acid in someone's face. There has been some funny comediennes over the years but Jo is not one of them.
Oh fuck off. If you don’t like her, don’t watch this video; it’s very simple. Then you wouldn’t have to see someone you don’t like, and the rest of us don’t have to see your inane bullshit.
I like humour and progressive jazz and knowledge - with an edge - to it. The edge has to be there - and Jo is carrying her small sword - with her and its fine. Taste in food - is individual; as well as humour, is. And that is fine. Fare thee well
Thing I love about Jo, she doesn't laugh at crappy jokes just for the sake of TV. If you make Jo laugh, you're genuinely funny.
Perfect with her deadpan delivery as well
I love how jo just doesnt give a fuck
Me too!
As Lee said "You can't beat class!"😂
One of my favourites. Great sense of humour, takes everything in her stride, cheeky as.....
Jo is so quick witted.........................love her!🤩❤
I genuinely want to live my life with the sort of attitude towards life that Jo has.
first thing you need to do is to get fat
Yeah she would love throwing acid at people.

Love her. That Christmas game could be a show unto itself
That's one hell of a name
I have never got enough of Jo. She is terrific ❤
I love that they give her such outrageous lies and she pulls it off
I wear double hard boxer underpants
jo is always so funny whatever show she's on
I love Jo so much. Definitely going to play that Christmas game this year. Luckily, we'll be around the pool then. Some cold water would be just the thing.
"The whole nation is waiting to see a pregnant Pussycat Doll do the splits"
"Let's be honest, it's not the whole nation, it's roughly half"
i really love jo's attitude towards the world (or at least, the attitude that she presents on these shows). shoutout to grumpy fed-up-with-it women
Jo needs to write a book about her life. Jo is a very intelligent person.
According to her wikipedia page, she's written two.
Look Back in Hunger. The Autobiography (2009)
Can't Stand Up For Sitting Down. The Autobiography - Part 2 (2010)
Her first autobiography is absolutely hilarious.
You can tell how intelligent she is from the speed she answered "prime number 1 more than a square" - compare to the average celebrity e.g. a Cats Does Countdown player.
Her books are great!
"I could eat my Christmas dinner in a fire." Jo is such a gift 😂😂
this should have way more views.
The funniest one was the story about buying her own birthday cake. Hilarious!
yep!!
Thank god you finally compiled this! Have been watching Jo videos for a while now!!
I just love her. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of my favourite people on the planet
God I love her! Her general mood on Taskmaster was a life goal.
“Or was he still unconscious?” Gets me every time 💀
He's so naturally quick witted. 👏 😂
5:15 Lee's face when the tables have turned and he's the middle class one
but he had to turn it on brydon with the mercedes comment to get himself back where he feels comfortable.
Jo is much better here than on the old QI shows I've seen. This game format suits her better IMO.
yep. QI isn't really for funny people.
Wanna play that Christmas game now
Even if Jo's game was a lie, I'm still playing it. And in not waiting for Christmas, either
great Christmas game
Jo and Bob are the best 😂
shes a delight
i’d love to have a drink with her!
OMG, JO would never eat a Christmas Dinner in the bath, She has class 😊

Used to hitch hike to the beach all the time in the seventies
29:38 - Jo Brand: "I once ordered myself a cake and, in doing so, ruined a complete stranger's party." Where the hell is that?
The section before that is wrong as well.
When Jo tells her children that a puppy dies everytime they lie, a puppy dies.
You didn't include her cake story?! That's an all time great moment!
The only thing funnier than Jo on this show would be if they ever had Miriam Margolyes.
I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure they have had Miriam....might be wrong though
An error in the description of the video: it says on 29: something the story would be about the cake but instead it was about her and her husband. There is no cake story
When Lee stutters it must be her (or Bob Mortimer)
Can someone help me I'm trying to find a Would I lie to you? clip but have forgotten which one it is. All I remember is a panelist on Lee's team reads out a card, and it's such a weird thing that David stutters for a few seconds and ends up just asking 'Why?'
Anyone know what clip this might be??
Do you know if the panelist was a man or woman? Because the first clip that comes to mind is of Brian Blessed riding a boat skippered by an orangutan.
One of the Bob Mortimer ones, perhaps?
Is it Rod Gilbert buying tapas with his car?
She’s so deadPan and dry sence of humour doesn’t give much away , so hard to decipher if true or lie
20:45 What season/episode is this one from?
Series 13 Episode 8
@@familieglennon8031 thanks
There are a couple others they could have included. Nice compilation though.

The moan zone with her husband is something else
Mints?
mince
Is he the guy from Indian match making? :O
Isnt it amazing how when jo mentions going for a smear, they slightly cringe...get over it people, women do
i know. to be fair the name is horrible but the experience is far fkn worse. i hate it.

I dont mean to be insensitive but can anyone confirm if it is illegal to drive with a hearing impairment? Or in other words, can you apply for a drivers licence being hard of hearing? 😮
Google it
You can drive if you’re deaf. Hearing is not a prerequisite for safe driving. Coincidentally, I had this argument with someone not long ago.
@@Home-u6g be nice
About ten "miles". Whut?
Funniest bit of the video was David and the spreadsheet comment
