@Caleb Flood: if you enjoyed RP here, check her out on The Mash Report (where you'll be re-united also with NK) Even funnier and very articulate. Enjoy!
I find myself returning to this episode, not quite sure exactly why. Maybe it is for the political banter, but it could be for the joke that Hugh has been banned from Chessington World of Adventure. Overall, I really enjoy the full combination of all the gags. Nish Kumar also has a really hearty laugh, which also contributes to the joy of it.
I think Nish’s Wikipedia bit with Ed and Dara going off on each other is another amazing part of this show! And Rachel is just wonderful to admire, beautiful and funny; shame Dara can’t say the same ;)
Ed Gamble versus Ed Byrne was a great competition, in this episode! No matter who technically had the better set, I feel the audience won having both laughs combined. 🍻 Thanks for the upload.
Russians have a great voice for being spies. My surgeon met me pre op to discuss things and turned the whole thing into a hilarious spy caper. “We will meet again in theatre. You will be unconscious”
The "Dominos effect" line made me spit coffee on my laptop! Stopped watching MTW a few years ago, but this ep was better than I ever remember (I was just searching for Rachel Parris stuff tbh).
Kerry Godliman was the star of this episode for me. The "Captain Birdseye" joke had me in stitches, and I'm actually thinking about changing my screensaver to the face Kerry pulls when she makes the "whiskers and cat piss" joke
All the newspaper articles mentioning Ed in blind date don't have a picture of him. They do of others. Don't think there is a picture in the public domain. Hopefully someone has it on VHS tape 😊
I cannot stress enough how much I hate you. I was about to comment that exact joke, just to see this comment as the top comment on my screen. For shame. For shame. Take my *thumbs up* and get out (This is a joke comment, good for you for saying the joke first)
I am actually really glad they finally got Rachel on here, she is very good, her and Nish have worked together on another TV show but I haven't watched it yet
Dara, Hugh, Rachel, Nish, Ed, Kerry and Ed should all go to Chessington World of Adventures and do a special mock the week episode of them at the theme park
That Wikipedia bit was one of the funnier things i have seen Nish Kumar do. Ironic since none of it was his own material, but hey credit where credit is due [Citation Needed]
Why is everyone saying "a POOR man's Romesh"? I would say "Nish is a humourless man's Romesh". But what being poor on money has to do with their comedy tastes?
Because apparently what's funny is in no way subjective and Yokky and Drych apparently have the authority to decide what funny is. And, generally, they have no sense of humour if someone dares to bring up race unless it's in the MOST unchallenging way possible.
Finally, Ed Byrne's got back on the MTW stand up challenge!! I saw him live this year and I remember the santa routine from that show. The car incident routine and the special oven routine were the best ones from that show
His real first name is Peter. When he joined the Actor's Guild, there was another Peter Dennis, an older man, which wouldn't have been a problem normally but he happened to have some important position in the guild so "Hugh" had to change his working name to Hugh.
I didn't laugh at anything she said here. She makes good points on The Mash report, but doesn't make me laugh there either. I also hate the tone of her voice so I watch The Mash report clips on mute with subs. You have a weird taste in women dude, but that's only a good thing.
Raichin thanks I’ll try that out. I didn’t used to like Angela Barnes but she’s grown on me (brexit so soft you’d have to thumb it in) was absolutely brilliant
Gamble and Byrne going Ed to Ed.

I was very surprised that Ed beat Ed in the stand up challenge, I really like Ed but I thought Ed had the stronger routine.
I couldnt disagree w you more
...or not.

I was hoping for Eddy to make an entrance! (Ed, Edd ‘n Eddy! A show on Cartoon Network)

I just love Nish on MTW. The way he loses it over the other comedians bits always makes me laugh twice as hard.
FanFicnic right? Any joke is funnier to me if I hear Nish cackling in the background
@Luke Fields "We should go!!!" 😂
Romesh is better
He is sham laughing and its irritating.
Rachel Parris was enjoyable because of her calm demeanor and she is delightfully funny. Please bring her back.
@Caleb Flood: if you enjoyed RP here, check her out on The Mash Report (where you'll be re-united also with NK) Even funnier and very articulate. Enjoy!
You could just say she's sexy AF. Honesty doesn't kill ya. Unless you're talking to an SJW.
Is that how you feel about the men..their "calm demeanor"? WTF.
Scy, RP is SAF, but WTF is SJW? ELI5, TIA.
It's quite a rare style combo - she's upbeat deadpan. Very few people try it and she completely nails it.

Alright, internet, it is now our goal to track down Ed Byrne's episode of Blind Date and upload it onto TH-cam.

My Great uncle usually DVRs them, i'll check with him when I go upstate.
I searched it up on TH-cam and there was a video that came up, haven’t watched it yet but think it might be it

Well, I have the footage. But it's mine and you can't have it.
At the end of that round the points go to Ed.

One of the best episodes of the series and indeed one of the best of episodes ever. I've watched it several times now, and it is still enjoyable.

This channel delivers on quality, punctuality and overall excellence of the videos. Much love from an EST kid.
Your English is quite good for an Estonian.
Ex Essex I meant EST as in Eastern Standard Time. Someone who doesn't get MTW on regular TV.
As for my English, I'm an immigrant to the US.

The Mash Report. It’s very good and Rachael is so funny !
Finally Rachel Parris on one of the many funny panel shows!
"I Thor, I Thor a puddy tat!" 😂😂 26:38
Rachel Parris on MtW?! Yes.
I love the fact that Rachel and Nish are on the opposite teams. This should be good.
I don't think I've ever seen Rachel Parris before. I like her! She reminds me of a human version of Ann Coulter, but in a good way.
She's awesome!

@@rosemaryjones5550 🤣🤣🤣
I keep coming back for Nish's Wikipedia bit. It's even funnier if you've heard him talking about his own Wikipedia page having been vandalized.
Ooh, an Ed's-up match! Or maybe an Ed to Ed match...
An Ed-off
griffonwing you know what they say, two Eds are better than one
Ed Vs. Ed!
If I ran MtW, I'd get a 3rd comedian called Ed, and put them all on the same team.
Team Ed, Edd, and Eddy FTW
Nish: "Dear Dierdre, I suspect one of my female colleagues has discovered my dark secret. Should I eliminate her?"
This has set a precedent and there will be a Domino's effect...
Cleverest joke of the episode.
As told by Lee Mack on WILTY ot that long ago.....
She nicked it from Lee Mack on "Would I Lie to You".
That Wikipedia bit was one of the funnier things i have seen Nish Kumar do. Ironic since none of it was his own material, but hey credit where credit is due [Citation Needed]
I think it was in John Oliver's Last Week Tonight shpw about Saudi Arabia.
@@GallifreyanCat John Oliver did his bit only after this episode aired.
You know, you can give a compliment without trying to bash someone's comedic style. It is possible.
@@GallifreyanCat I'm not sure when he did it or when this was filmed, but Russell Howard said it in Good News
I lost it at Citation Needed
Nish's laugh....magic! :)
Magically depressing
Ed’s standup was SO GOOD
I could picture the Mock the Week on tour, 1st stop Chessington World of Adventures, Hugh wouldn’t be able to be there.
You know why
3:44 "Get A Load Of This Guy" Cam
Oddly enough, Nish was _also_ a finalist in the 2007 Chortle Student Comedy Awards.
Ed and Dara showing they are indeed best friends starting at 19:05
Who knew Mrs Santa was a Scouser? LMAO
Ed Byrne's 'Furious Leprechaun 'was spot on!
I looked online for that Chessington park, looks like an amazing place to visit...too bad for Hugh
Nish being a poor man's Ramesh is soooo true!!! Hahahahaha
Why is everyone saying "a POOR man's Romesh"?
I would say "Nish is a humourless man's Romesh".
But what being poor on money has to do with their comedy tastes?
well i find nish funnier than romesh so yours wouldn't work either.
Why wouldn't it work? You're a humourless man and he's your comedian.
Because apparently what's funny is in no way subjective and Yokky and Drych apparently have the authority to decide what funny is.
And, generally, they have no sense of humour if someone dares to bring up race unless it's in the MOST unchallenging way possible.
im not humourless he just is funnier than romesh not that romesh isnt funny he is hes just lacking a lot for me.
Twice the Eds! Same low price! WIN!!!
They're going Ed to Ed!
Ooh, an Ed's-up match! Or maybe an Ed to Ed match...
I'd love to see a show that is just Comedians in a Amusement Park 😀
Reminds me of Larry the Cable Guy walking through a Phoenix shopping mall with the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, with his fart machine
Finally, Ed Byrne's got back on the MTW stand up challenge!! I saw him live this year and I remember the santa routine from that show. The car incident routine and the special oven routine were the best ones from that show
As a non-Brit, I just had to google "Chessington World Adventures". Hugh, it's OK not to worry about not wanting to go there.
God dammit, every bloody time I eat by the computer I end up spending all day bingeing british panel shows...
Corbyn has an allotment and old Macdonald has a farm: simple but classic
How many of y'all looked up chessington world of adventures as well after this video?
One of my favourite episodes, and a really good mix of comedians
Love it when Kumar bursts out laughing.
Damn, I wanted to hear a bit of trivia about Hugh Dennis too!
He turned down a recruiting officer from MI5.
He was offered a job in the development department at Kelloggs.
His real first name is Peter. When he joined the Actor's Guild, there was another Peter Dennis, an older man, which wouldn't have been a problem normally but he happened to have some important position in the guild so "Hugh" had to change his working name to Hugh.
He never pays too much for car insurance.
11:48 This. Ladys and Gents. Is the stand up act that ruined christmas for my little brother.
Has to be one of my favourite line ups as they made it absolutely hilarious.

Watching this in 2022 is so surreal.
It's said to this day, Hugh Dennis still hasn't been allowed to go to chesshington world of adventure.
I only watched this to see Rachel roasting Nish. I was not disappointed.
How long had Dara been waiting to be able to go "the points go to Ed"
Anyone else old enough to remember when "Chessington World of Adventure", which has a few animals, was "Chessington Zoo", which had a small fun-fair?
Yep I remember Johnny Morris used to do a TV programme from Chessington zoo every week I went there with the school once
I love how pre-covid this all is. They didn't realise how things were gonna change so much!
Thanks love, this episode has been the best in a long while
Dear Deidre, I have a bit of a thing for Ed Gamble.
I love Nish's laugh, it's so infectious!
damn! That's quick! Thanks :)
Seconded.
you get 2 Eds for the price of one also Rachel Parris was very funny in this episode she is also great in the mash report
Best episode of the series I think
Very funny edition, notably the second half.
Greetings from East Anglia in England.
20:12 this made me choke on my food🤣🤣
(glances at the Dislikes) 259 people so far are banned from Chessington World of Adventure.
20:15 - looks like behind his laughter Nish is genuinely angry at that )
But then... he often looks angry behind his laughter
Last time I took my kids to see Santa he was a geordie why aye ho ho ho
Ed Byrne is fab in this one! His comments on VJJs is PRICELESS - and Spot On!!!!
Wrong Ed
Jokes on them, nish actually didn't look any of that up
Finally the points system is revealed by the points going to Ed!
My personal favorite episode of Mock the Week
The wikipedia moment was my favourite part of this episode.
Ed Gamble was definitely the star of this episode.
That meerkat joke is so underrated
Interesting comments about the Ukraine in this one.
Here for Rachel.
11:25 Holy sh*t, cannot believe Ed used the Santa Claus story, I've seen him do that before at one of his live performances
That’s weird. I just saw an advert for a new series of Blockbusters, hosted by Dara O’Briain before I watched this.
Probably one of the funniest episodes

Ed Gamble used the same routine as he did on another stand up show
