Great reaction from you both, I can tell you as a resident of the UK we do have some bad service, in fact awful at times, this was part of the genius of this series in the fact it highlighted and poked fun at our nations stupidity...
how bizzare! I just found this show the other day and had never seen it before lol its great. I found it after watching Chris morris JAM and searched for other shows he did.
Glad you watched another one, you did great understanding so much of it, so don't worry about the few things you didn't. So funny, I miss shows like this. Love both of your laughs!
It's worth also seeking out the radio show called "On the hour" which preceeded Brass Eye and the Day Today (anything from Chris Morris and Armando Iannucci is pure gold, also check out The Thick of It and the film In the Loop)
I really hope you'll give Chris Morris' magnus opum 'Jam' a watch. It is the darkest, blackest, funniest British comedt sketch show/surrealist Hellscape you'll ever watch!
The news today was yesterday news , But the news today is tomorrow news , The future news will be the past news and the history news will be forgotten that is the news for today .
2:33 Armando Iannucci, the co-creator of this and heavily involved in many other great comedy progs, the majority of Partridge 'vehicles', Time Trumpet, The Thick Of It. Also Veep, which I can't say I've seen, but I believe it was somewhat popular across the pond.
Brasseye is an absolute must, only one episode was controversial and it was a special shown in 2001 (3 or 4 years after the original series aired) although it was the press who deliberately made it so controversial because they hated the fact Morris was holding a mirror up to their over-the-top coverage of crimes involving child SA . Brasseye was a satire of a current affairs program and each episode concentrated on a theme affecting society (drugs, Science etc). The Day Today was brilliant, Brasseye was even better, Chris Morris is a genius.
"The orgy of sly-winking usury was only brought to an end by a stairwell nonce-bashing that left North braindead and quadraspazzed on a lifeglug" is still my favourite sentence ever created nearly 3 decades later
There's a great picture of a newspaper with an article condemning the show and Chris Morris on page, and ogling over a then 15 year old girls on the next page....
All sorts of references. the cards in the phone box , do those still exist? NEWS cut into the arm, echoes of richie edwards (rip?) and his 4REAL cover on the NME :/
24:40 The whole music spoof is top drawer. The presenters on European MTV really were that awful. As for the Nirvana skit, it is funny on so many levels. (1) as if Nirvana would have sold out and done any advert, nevermind (see what I did there?) a sanitary towel ad. (2) it is a delightful homage to Smells like Teen Spirit musically. (3) the lyrics about sanitary towels are side splittingly funny " Once a month, you'll become a slave to a tidal wave? ", " it absorbs everything " Holy smokes... (4) the video editing of the band is spot on. If you couldnt hear the words, you may well be fooled into thinking it was an actual Nirvana video. (5) the girls in white pants is a straight spoof of the sanitary product adverts that had started being shown in the early 1990's. Previously in the UK, there were no adverts on TV at all for such products Not sure a TV channel would risk making something like this nowadays for fear of offending people.
Yeah Ian Curtis' daughter was a huge fan of Chris Morris and persuaded her Mum to watch that episode with her, brutal timing really! It's the only time Chris Morris publicly apologised for one of his jokes.
Ah the first appearance of the (Not so) great Peter O'Hanra'O'Hanrahan, Worth checking out the DVD easter egg audio clip of the two of them on a very infamous day. Hadn't watched this one in a while and had completely forgotten the Ian Curtis bit on the MTV spoof
I'm sure you can find Brass Eye "somewhere" online, if you can't it's well worth seeing the 1st feature film Chris Morris did - Four Lions, truly a masterpiece.
The Day Today is a who's who of British comedy. Everyone on screen and behind the screen is a comedy veteran today. Stewart Lee was actually a writer on the earlier radio version of this show called On the Hour, and I remember there was a small controversy over how big a role he had in creating Alan Partridge while writing for the radio show.
@@garethm3242 K, I'll check it out.👍 Though, I don't particularly 'like' either man as people, if I'm honest! But I guess I'll have to bare their insufferable 'lefty/establishment takes' just for the trivia.🤣 *edit Herring missed a trick in the opening bit about The Wolf of Wall Street not being a werewolf film. Why didn't he say something like _'I was wondering who was going to get their throat ripped out first?'_ 🤷♀ Seemed like an open goal when you have werewolves and bankers in the mix. Instead just _'Who's going to turn?'_ A bit lame. *edit (again) Glad that after less than 15 mins I can now turn these two off having received 'the trivia'! Especially since they were about to tread the compulsory (and well trodden) anti-Clarkson virtue signalling trail. Herring is as likeable as a fart by a passer-by. Coogan is as likeable as a fart (gone wrong) by oneself. I'd LOVE to meet many comedians... These two I'd rather not. That's the thing about podcasts etc, you get to know the person a little more. Burr, Gervaise, Rogan, Connolly, Hicks (RIP) and Cleese, Fuck yes. I know Hicks was well b4 Pods, but fuck it... I'd take the chance!
Loving that you love this absurdity! I thoroughly remember falling in total love with this when it was first broadcast, bought the VHS and watched it over and over!🤣 That was a while back obviously, so very glad to revisit it along with your introduction to it!👍 So so so much more comedy from a similar era... The Adam and Joe Show springs to mind though, slightly less popular perhaps, maybe harder to come by but not impossible. And VERY funny, those two took the piss out of literally anything as well, and did it in a very 'raw' way, not polished. But it came across like a couple of funny guys 'on your level'. Like 'that guy' at work who naturally makes everyone laugh. A taste? https: //www. youtube .com/ watch?v= KGkoBjn9U-c&list=PLnKJHz5A sJXUp 1Pcgk-PtcrAchtA fV3z7
"Hellwyn Ballard" is Armando Iannuci, in my opinion the top UK tv comedy writer of the last 30 years; this program, its successor Brass Eye (which you must also check out), Alan Partridge, The Thick of It and plenty more :)
The only thing that ever offended in all 6 episodes was that 2 second Ian Curtis clip. Otherwise its classic sketch after classic. Re the I.T. Crowd. The title is a pun on the phrase the IT Crowd.
hahaha WTF ? Love Brad & Lucy, but so freaky they covered this series after I just bought the whole series on DVD today at Ebay. Going to be a humourless retirement in years to come so I am buying up as many classic comedy series as possible before they go on the banned list. Classing it as part of our retirement plan when bored shitless...😇
When this hit it was like a gift from above. Better than anything we had seen in terms of intelligent subversive comedy. "Brasseye" came later. These two programmes and "Yes Minister/Prime Minister" are the absolute pinnacle of UK comedy.
Thanks for this and the great reaction Guys:) This was even funnier because I worked at The Races and those odds were ridiculous.If any Bookmaker advertised those prices then they would go bankrupt, immediately as you could back all the runners and make a large profit. There were other Betting price jokes where they put the "favourite" and had another horse at an even shorter price and another joke was saying "31 Bar" . The betting term 'Bar' represents a price for entrants in a race or event whose odds have not been quoted individually due to their price being further out and yet one of the horse prices that was mentioned earlier WAS a bigger price than 3/1...LOL
Have to say, those betting jokes went over my head like a Concorde!👍 I guess there were enough jokes that some you get some you don't, still f-ing funny!
@@carlhartwell7978 Yes, Carl. I dare say, that I missed others myself. I shudder to think how many jokes I missed (and stil miss) every time I see a reaction to "Hot Fuzz" with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, because every second of the film, almost,literally, is filled with jokes or foreshadowing or back referencing,my friend:)
@@Isleofskye Tell me about it with those Cornetto films, still easily pick things up after a dozen watches. Brilliant 'art' in general is like that. Case in point. I was always a fan of the Gorillaz album Plastic Beach (I was before a massive Blur fan anyway). But only a month ago I listened to it... It's SO Gen-X. I have to say, I've not heard anyone say that about it. I didn't think that about it before now! But it is. Synth and New Wave are ALL OVER it.🤷♀
@@carlhartwell7978 lol. I was,literally,writing seconds ago that I saw Phil Collins' first ever Top Of The Bill performance with his previous group=Genesis in August,1972 so even Coldplay and Radiohead are new to me. I was really into music until I was 35 in 1989/90 and collected 2,500 singles but ,though I still love music,I know much less now about groups from the last 35 years. I bought my first record in London in 1960 which was "Blue Moon" ny The Marcels..:)
Chris Morris is pretty much doing a full on impression of early Jeremy Paxman who presented Newsnight with quite an aggressive style which was quiet different to the usual news presenter style at the time.
I think the "Nirvana" sketch regarding Panty Smile was a parody of Nirvana's song Smells Like Teen Spirit. Teen Spirit was/is a female deodorant and apparently Cobain's friend wrote on a wall "Kurt smells like Teen Spirit" because his girlfriend at the time wore the deodorant. Cobain didn't know it was a deodorant and thought the writing was something more prolific and so he wrote the song Smells Like Teen Spirit. Allegedly.
I worked in a local authority (non-commercial) UK Leisure Centre for many years, until very recently - and I can confirm the service is that bad!!!🤣 I always found that sketch hilarious!!!
Looks like you missed the presenter doing drugs while the closing credits ran. With this show, it's always best to keep paying attention even when it looks like the episode is over.
This is British humour aimed at a British audience. Comedic subtleties and nuances are lost here, I really don't think you are laughing for the right reasons at the right things, but keep enjoying British humour, it's the best.
Wow, so much to unpack here in terms of pretention and gatekeeping although it's obviously good to have you around to laugh for the right reasons. As long as you make it clear you're laughing for the right reasons and not because, say, the show is just funny. Which is clearly not a good enough reason to be laughing, but you don't need me to tell you that. Anyway, it's good that you're here, keeping an eye on your brother, Peter.
Chris Morris worked as a presenter for my local Radio Station, Radio Bristol, when he was young. He was fired for filling the studio with helium as the News was being read.
@@bradlucy I really enjoyed watching Katt Williams with you guys. Y’all be weak as hell like a real gut busting laughing which had me weak as hell too. Pretty much we laugh the entire video together. I am a 2x’s Lung Cancer Survivor and I REALLY needed that laugh. That’s how I got hooked on you guys. Looking forward to some more Katt Williams or maybe even some Kevin Hart or Gary Owens. Oooh here are some good throwbacks…RICHARD PRYOR or EDDIE MURPHY 🙌🏾👏🏾 😊!! Anyway, have a great day 👋🏾.

Oh yeah!
Never caught that either!
Likewise. Thank you so much for pointing to it. Brilliant!
Holy hell, I first watched this when it aired, been watching it for years, but NEVER spotted that. Brilliant!!!🤣😂

The Armando Ianucci Show was a favourite of mine growing up.

You have to remember at the time the intro was so overblown and ridiculous it was hilarious. It's crazy how it's just a normal intro now lol
There is not a single wasted word or shot in this show. It is magnificent.
All sorts of references. the cards in the phone box , do those still exist? NEWS cut into the arm, echoes of richie edwards (rip?) and his 4REAL cover on the NME :/
