Shit, you ask someone "what's your 20?" and they reply with their home address; who could possibly crack a code so difficult? Alan Turing would've had issues..
There's a guy, I happened upon him working in a shipyard a couple years back. This guy, he'd never once been out to sea - despite working as a marine engineer - colloquially known as 'Deep sea Dave' 😂
When i was a kid my brother and mate had an argument over who should be called "sharky", my mate mark said he should because shark rhymed with mark, my brother said he should because he had a t-shirt with a shark on it. 25 years later and neither of them are called sharky...
Feelin' Fine is he Irish per chance? From near Limerick? No this isn’t a Spud/Potato/Irish joke. Genuinely I was introduced to a guy called Spud in Ireland and he looked about 2 pints away from gutting me like a fish.
There was a kid in our school in a younger year and all I knew about him was that he doesn't like being called spud. I approached him one time, he did indeed kinda look like a spud in general shape. And I can confirm he definitely hated what I called him
Have Ricky and Steve never watched a movie? Every movie involving people talking over radios will inevitably include the line, “what’s your twenty?”. 😂
@@frankhinstine4552 yeah, when it’s all public, he’s a business man and he knows flaunting his pride when faced with criticism in public is a good move to dodge the controversy. But OPs more talking about when u see him in podcasts and conversations, when he forgets he’s a celebrity. He’s funny and like he said, he can’t handle being the butt of the joke. He gets a lil mad hehe
We just used surnames. Mine was Layo, there was Jonesy, Sutty (Sutcliffe) Beno (Benson) Jacko (Jackson). The only true nickname was Thicko (his dad was called Thicko too, they both fucking hated it). I met him again years later and kept calling him it by habit, it felt so natural. He pulled me aside and asked me to _please_ call him Steve as his girlfriend was really confused.
I have had many monikers: Ace (for my rapping prowess)...J Square (for my initials)...Biggie Red has been the most prevailing over the years (courtesy of my girth and light skin tone)...Sonny Red (a nod to my mob flick movie love and dabbling in the criminal life)...Hawgmaster (that girth again)...Partyman (an ode to the dance Jack Nicholson does as the Joker. I do the same when Uber eats arrives)...Dad (fill in your sentimental thoughts on fatherhood)...by the way, I am big not fat...there is a difference.
My uncle had one of these radios, and he used it to shout insults at random people in random conversations and then move on as a troll. Unfortunately, one day he did it to the wrong group, and one of them said "I think it is that (uncle's full name here)" and my uncle panicked and turned the radio off.
My old workplace had a high employee turnover rate which meant people only really lasted a few months. I was called Tom for 3 years because a manager thought that was my name due to the fact that my colleague in the same department was called Tom and we were both of the same build, ethnicity, hair colour etc. It even got to a point where it was written on my name badge.
Karl: "You'd say 'What's your 20?'" Ricky: What's that mean? Karl: It means where are ya? Rickey: Than why don't you say where are ya? xD That made me bust out laughing
They might rip on CB radios, but due to movies like Big and The Goonies, I reckon that's probably the toy that I wanted more than any other as a kid. Except maybe a radio control car, that was the holy grail.
Cb radio is just social media or msn messenger or whatever twenty years earlier. With more truckers. Sounds kinda fun to me, Celt for the inherent possibilities of dodgy blokes
My tease nick name from grade school was Dolphin and i hated it. Up until i met the women im with now, she somehow convinced me it was cute and changed my entire perspective. (Irl name is Dalton)
Jabberjaw, Fred, Skate, and Carcutta in that order. At one point my crew was 2 finger Floyd, 1 1/2 lungs Frank, no legs Chris and Boone (who would kick your ass if mention his extra fingers and toes he had removed)
Honestly It's kinda annoying that noone will ever acknowledge that Carl isn't remotely stupid. My theory is that his language skills are what makes people think he isn't bright, however if you actually listen to his thoughts and understand them, his reasoning in most cases is actually very sound. Ricky immediately trashing everything by locking onto the first flaw in what is usually a miscommunication more than an actually stupid comment is what plays into people treating him like an idiot. Full disclosure i also think this might bother me more than even Carl himself
I find Ricky, Stephen and Karl hilarious. Ricky and Stephen responsible for The Office and Extras, plus the film Cemetery Junction. On the Extras dvd there's a quote from John Cleese saying "This Is the greatest sitcom ever in the whole universe, except for mine" High praise coming from a founding member of Monty python's flying Circus, Life of Brian and Fawlty Towers. John Cleese is a comic Genius, a force of nature. Ricky and Stephen are geniuses aswell, directing, writing and starring in The Office, the only British sitcom to ever win a golden globe. A huge achievement. Extras is so funny. Cemetery Junction is a good Comic-Drama. Also Ricky wrote, directed and played the main role in Derek, which was also a comic-drama, which Ricky seems to excel at, and which had some hilarious moments in it. Like, the episode when they were playing Duran Duran to the old people. Karl had to play the drummer. I have the dvd, the first time I seen it, I couldn't stop laughing, my sides were aching, I wanted to stop laughing coz it was hurting my sides and my head, but when it stopped hurting, I kept rewinding it, and just kept laughing. I must have watched that piece at least 10 times. Brilliant writer, director and actor. Ricky is a genius. A breath of fresh air, when he came along.
We used to call this guy Cocker back in uni. He always wanted to be around others and literally craved company when he was feeling stressed. Kind of good looking in a somewhat pretty girly way but the last person you'd want around if there was any trouble. Hence of all dogs Cocker was the breed most reminiscent of him. Anyway it got around and he fucking HATED us for coming up with it....
CB radio codes aren't for secrecy at all. It's similar to the codes police use. Made to just get to the point like 10-4 is "yes" or "affirmative." Just made to shorten statements to keep the radio clear of too much chatter.
@@DriscolDevilI know this is a year old but its to avoid confusion. The numbered codes have a specific meaning, while words like yes and ok can have multiple meanings. In addition, there are a lot of acronyms and initials used on the road. OK can mean anything on a radio. 10-4 means acknowledgement, it doesnt mean yes. You might say, "hey everyone theres an accident on exit 9. Plan a detour" and people would reply 10-4. If someone asked you a yes or no question, you would just say yes. Asking for someones 20 refers to their location and which direction they are traveling. You might reply with the highway, exit, and direction. Its really for truckers to communicate.
I can imagine when Karl was a child he literally looked the exact same as he does now, just smaller, like how they animate him as a child.

Karl Pilkington’s head is so round that it’s the roundest head ever... in the world
Good one
raza cracking stuff that mate
Love how Ricky took the piss out of the code being easy to crack and then fails to work out Karl's code straight afterwards 🤣
It’s easy to crack because the answers give the code away too easily! That’s his point!
Shit, you ask someone "what's your 20?" and they reply with their home address; who could possibly crack a code so difficult? Alan Turing would've had issues..
“Not very hard to crack is it?”
Then they couldn’t crack it 😂
"Side on bring it in"
"Alright?"
It gets me every damn time🤣🤣🤣🤣
karls relatives sound so funny. Id love to see them
There's a guy, I happened upon him working in a shipyard a couple years back. This guy, he'd never once been out to sea - despite working as a marine engineer - colloquially known as 'Deep sea Dave' 😂
Ricky: "Such a hard code to crack"
Couldn't guess what "how many candles you buring" meant before it was explained

I know a guy called Spud. None of us know his real name. Hes late twenties with a kid and we all call him Spud

BS that Merchant didnt have a nickname. With face and eyes like that they probably teased the crap out of him
He's done you again Steve
Akupara It must of been tiny.
I bet he did later in school but just didn`t say.
Cock Merchant! Easy.
I personally like calling him "Wheately."

Nope, just Mario and Dale Gribble.
Have Ricky and Steve never watched a movie? Every movie involving people talking over radios will inevitably include the line, “what’s your twenty?”. 😂
I get the feeling Ricky doesn’t like being the butt of the joke or seen to be the the fool...
Yep 😉
Rubbish, he has been the butt of the jokes in every series he has made and his ugly face tweets are there for all to see..

Nicknames anyone?
They always called me "christopher robin", "red", and "carrot top"
If you’re looking for spud, then you certainly aren’t looking for someone 7 feet tall. 😂
can't believe the company backing this up were the same that made the sopranos
Y’know, Steven Merchant probably could have played spud in trainspotting
The image of the Elephant Man coming over and grabbing a beer is profoundly funny for some reason.
These animations are gold, especially Karl when his eyebrows are horizontal
What goes better together than Steve and his refusal to say the word "Hairy"?
Jon the screw, he owned a diy shop 😂😂😂
And they show a garage. Why?
@@andyw5962 yeah a do-it-yourself shop, a workshop you can work on building stuff in. Commonly on a garage.
I just to hug karl so much
Ricky looks like a young Fred flintstone in these cartoons
Yh that was the style they wanted for a desigb
CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE!!!!!! WE NEED NEW ONES!!!
They have them down to a tee in the animation.
You never knew your nickname that people called you behind your back at work...the same way you did to other people...but trust me...you had one
CB radio... "1 4 for a copy! 1 4 for a copy!"
My favorite thing is "Jimmy The Hat" because that is a name I used before. Is this just something floating about in the aether?
Google James lanza

Jimmy two times lol
Here comes Jimmy 3 Legs
My old workplace had a high employee turnover rate which meant people only really lasted a few months. I was called Tom for 3 years because a manager thought that was my name due to the fact that my colleague in the same department was called Tom and we were both of the same build, ethnicity, hair colour etc. It even got to a point where it was written on my name badge.
Karl: "You'd say 'What's your 20?'"
Ricky: What's that mean?
Karl: It means where are ya?
Rickey: Than why don't you say where are ya?
xD That made me bust out laughing
Nearly weed on that bit where Ricky talked about scrambling for pilkington 01
Boxer boy kinda reminds me of my old nickname "sticky boxer boy" 👍😁

Jimmy the Hat
The cb radio is the Chatroulette or omeagle from the 80’s 😂

I knew the blond guy sounded familiar, he's the voice of Wheatley from portal 2.
Ha! Strangely enough I used the CB and I knew someone with the handle Rubber Ducky.........
Mine was Koolkat......... Shit I know
My tease nick name from grade school was Dolphin and i hated it. Up until i met the women im with now, she somehow convinced me it was cute and changed my entire perspective.

My bro had a CB in the early 90's. He was Wild gooser cause he had a long neck. lol
He was actually kind of "not stupid" or silly in this one lol
Nobody will care about this, but Stephen went to the secondary school I currently attend
I care.
You're right.
Some yellow taters are about as round as Karl's head
They seem jealous Karl had all this cool stuff going on
