The final detail of his walk turning into a run is brilliant.
darkprose :o) I was here looking to see if anyone else noted this :o)
clarabellen Yes. I love these guys. There is something so surprisingly, desperately, tragically human about this sketch, and the run at the end is... We've all encountered something that demands we run from it, not walk. And, even worse, we have all been in a place we can't run from, though we know we should.
clarabellen Mitchell and Webb sometimes really get to me, their poignancy and pain catch me unawares from time to time. I find myself thinking about this sketch and some others long after I've seen them, and I don't laugh. I suppose this hits me in another personal sense because I was in a seminary some time ago, and though I want to say I was an emotionally healthy person at the time, the truth is I just wasn't. I'm only glad I recognized it earlier rather than later.
+Joseph Charles I can't get the fog to clear.
+pCeLobster No dude NO!! That one has too much feels
Looks like that chapel is also a freezer
that is normal. they all are freezing for some reason.
There seems to be some genuine catholic cold...in that protestant church.
Didn't collect enough in tithings to pay for the electricity, or fuel oil, or coal.
Normal Chapel conditions Summer or Winter. Your expected to bring your own Fire of Faith!
Mitchell's words sweat poetry as horrendous their meaning is
Mauro Daniel D'Ambrosio that was deep
It is SERIOUSLY cold in that chapel. Check the fogged breath.
Beat me to it :)
fuck you for giving me another "can't unsee"
ProjectFlashlight612 gotta love the English summer!
Here in NZ we call buildings that cold "Expensive desirable real estate".
David just can't act without weed. He takes a puff when the camera changes to Robert.
"He's gone, sir. They've all gone, and we're back."
"Who?"
"The incredibly creepy and sexually-repressed people who are still, unaccountably, priests."
+666deadman1988 you obviously don't know any priests, I know lots and they're the happiest people I know. Truth is they're probably much freer than you sexually, because they can control their will-power while others are slaves, they crawl in submission when porn or masturbation beckons. Even if they wanted to, they wouldn't be able to stop, and they're addicts. The priest is free because passions are beneath his reason.
sarcastic bowl of cornflakes Rubbish, teachers, parents, and relatives also abuse children. The problem is rotten adults who work with children, and not the vocation.
When was the last time you said to a parent 'oh hi, when have you last abused your child?' Because statistically, parents and relatives abuse their children much more than priests.
sarcastic bowl of cornflakes ugh, I knew I shouldn't have got into an argument with an internet atheist. Suffice it to say that some of the brightest minds in science (from Lemaitre to Mendel to Paschal to Copernicus) were devout Catholics, and some of the brightest genius in the arts, from painting, sculpture and architecture to philosophy, law, and every single science you can imagine, were Catholic. It takes 7-12 years study at university to become a priest, please don't think too highly of yourself. Anyway, you're probably the brightest guy in the world and nothing I say can change that, so goodbye.
Just out of interest though; try and abstain from masturbation for seven days. Go on, try it; let's see who the slave is. Anyway, ciao.
+Evi1M4chine Unaccountably so...
+Celegorm Feanorson it's a running gag from the show
I mean, they're both great, but David Mitchell's acting in this (especially the end) is off the chain. Makes me think how good, in a weird way, he'd be in a theatre show in something by Shakespeare or Beckett.
Yeah right? Especially at the end because he raises his voice and people like you that dont know a thing about acting that means good acting. Screaming is even better.
Weirdly he plays Shakespeare in Upstart Crow, and that is absolutely shite.
@@FiveSigma72 yes it is. The writing is particularly bad.
It’s basically just a Mitchell rant - it’s the same old
@@DigitalDaffodil Or is it?
Absolutely fucking brilliant. No laugh track to point out obvious jokes; just a thoughtfully deep monologue in a darkly comic scenario. This is comedic brilliance. Simple, but effective. Granted it's not laugh out loud funny, but man, this is by far my favourite kind of comedy.
L wanker
I laughter out load
Yes - the laugh tracks nearly ruin most of the sketches. So much better without.
@@ShootMeMovieReviews BBC sketch shows don't use laughter tracks.
They're shown to a live TV audience and the laughter is genuine, thankfully. It's not plastered on top - like I believe US studios tend to do.
@@Ron-Ayres They are often added. There's no doubt about this. Not only can you hear the same identical laugh sounds re-used in different sketches, but also many of the sketches are clearly not shot with an audience, yet feature obvious laugh tracks. I've seen lots of Mitchell & Webb videos both with and without the laugh tracks.
This is heart breaking and hilarious at the same time.
Ah, high school.
Hello, old friend.
That is brilliant, best acting in a sketch ever.
Check out their Sherlock Holmes with dementia sketch. It's heartbreaking!
@@taxidude Also the last sketch in their final episode, I believe.
This might be one of my favourite Mitchell and Webb sketches ever. It is so beautifully acted and shot. With extra points for David's acting, which is just amazing.
I''m actually really curious to know what Robet's real situation is. He seemed to be voicing some objections even when things were moderately tame.
I think it's amazing how many emotions this clip brought up in such a short time. At first it just seems like a normal sketch, then it tugs at your heart strings, then it tugs even more. It starts to get creepy, then that uncomforable-funny-creepy and at the end it's really sad. And I'm left feeling somewhat confused (emotionally speaking) and somewhat uneasy. Absolutely brilliant.
I think David Mitchell could play an magnificent super villain when he reacts like that. He is an amzing actor.
I don't know how intentional this was, but the fact that you can see David's breath is an excellent detail.
Gosh, I love Mitchell and Webb. They manage to make Comedy as well as Tragedy. Has anyone seen the Sherlock Holmes suffering from Alzheimer act ? Really brings a tear to my eye.
Checking miles on a clock and drawing a radius on a map, never thought of that. Brilliant!
Love the quickened footsteps at the end. Nice touch
there is more effort put into the writing of this sketch than most modern hollywood movies
I so love it when David Mitchell comes unhinged... :)
Meanwhile, inside his head he was thinking of Victoria, lol
I think this is my favorite sketch of theirs. It's so well written, it's insane.
Some of these sketches are more therapy than comedy. Great work guys.
And actually, in a strange way, this sort of sums up love and the mad turbulance of it all. Especially when the vicar is just sort of left alone at the end.
He looks like a boy and it looks bloody cold.
This is a brilliant sketch, great acting and absolutely hilarious!!
What happened to the nice Australian girl who was priest here before?
she's GONE. they're all GONE and we're back.
Man, it is FREEZING in that chapel! I got cold just watching.
The best thing of this sketxh is absence of laugh
Laugh tracks just irk me!
"Hello we'd like to use your church for a sketch in the new Mitchell and Webb BBC programme"
"Can we see a copy of the script first?"
".......no"
Haha the bit at 2:19 with the sinister sound and the light on Mitchell's face
This has got to be one of their best sketches. ...
David should team up with Simon Pegg and make a movie.
damn david's acting is .
So THIS is where the evil vicar came from
Plenty more fish in the sea, but you're alone... and in a desert....
Ah yes, cold churches where you can see your own breath, i remember it well.
I thought at the beginning when he was saying how it's horrible to love someone but get nothing in return, that he was going to say that's how God feels
Thank You provident divine Universe for the gift of Mitchell and Webb, the pain of my laughter is well worth every heaving breath. Thank You oh Thank You Thank You Thank You..oh and thanks rob amd dave for putting up with so much crappe
Who else thought it would be brilliant if at the end the real vicar came and said "EEEHH, and just who are you?" to David and then David just ran off.
That's what people mean these days when they say 'laugh track'. Everyone knows it's a studio audience, that it's not literally a separately added recorded laugh. But people who say 'I hate laugh tracks' really don't care how it's made. They just don't like hearing the laughter while they're watching a show.
Many of the the best sketches in this are
I'm so used to the laugh track, I actually missed it somewhat in this sketch. I had become accustomed to waiting for the studio audience to let me know it was okay to laugh.
god there young in this webb has hair...!
its not hair its hey're
What David is saying about that girl is literally exactly how I feel about David...
except for the tossing off bit I imagine.
love the breath fogging up that makes the scene all the more scary
Never gets old
They've edged along the bench as they were talking!
That last frame breaks my heart.
Oh! Its about religion. That one big love, un-returned and fetishised. Genius.
David Mitchell looks surprisingly hot in that vicar costume.
That's the same chapel as the one in Monty Python's the meaning of life where the choir sings 'O Lord please don't burn us'. Please don't rub linseed oil into the school cormorant.
Wow this kept giving and giving
The people who say that comedy is a lesser art form... should watch this
Glad to hear one without a laughter track for once.
This rings too true :( although hopefully not in such a creepy, stalkerish way.
Sounds like a classically trained actor - Shakespearean. No people do that better than English speaking U.K./Irish people. Music to the ears.
I know this is just going to get me mocked, but the vicar is kind of telling my story. At least i can look back on a storybook college romance
Lmao 😂😂
including the whole 'tossing off to a picture that doesn't do (him) justice?' ha ha.
Even vicars need to share.
Comedic genious...these two have gone dark side and it suits them so well
it's a great sketch, in a twisted, dark way. Not the "touching cloth" kinda of vingette, but good all the same.
it really do be like that
I thought I hated the overuse of laughter lines in comedy shows, however during this skit it felt very quiet without them, and i felt it hard to laugh....
It was just hard to get the live studio audience into the church.
david is such a good actor
David is a very good actor! I wish he'd do more serious acting as well. (Not that I don't love his comedy, I think it's brilliant! :D) ... By the way, is it really THAT cold in english churches?
Yes it is that cold in English churches
I thought this would be the opposite of their bad vicar sketch, but I was wrong.
such brilliant comedy
It must be really cold (or Mitchell just drank some tea) in there, you can see the Vicars breath.
WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, poor Robert. Truly a troubled young man.
This remind anyone else of James Joyce's "Araby"? What with the recurring religious themes as well as unrequited love.
Same church as the "Growth and Learning" part of "Monty Python's Meaning of Life".
For anyone who didn’t go to public school 3rd year you’re about 14-15
2:18 - 2:32 is a strange mix of both touching yet creepy
@666deadman1988 Actually he said "chapel," and therefore he's a chaplain. The exchange indicates that the setting is the chapel of an Oxbridge college.
@o0FallenAngel0o They did something similar in "That Mitchell and Webb Look", when they produced a sketch about Sherlock Holmes when he's gone senile
At the start, he's adorable ^.^
Brilliant writing !
@MaikUniversum Only dead fish swim with the stream
Brilliant!
How cute is David as the priest?!?!?
must be cold in there, i can see their breath
nice confession.
He looks so young.
Without a fishing rod or bait.
@PaladinswordSaurfang Been there, done that. But thank you so much for your concern for my mental health.
it must have been freezing in that chappel
David Mitchell's a pretty good actor, huh...
This looks to be the same church they used in Monty Pythons the Meaning of Life
I thought he was a vicar.
Very clever!
He said chapel, therefore he's a priest.
I wonder if that's how Kate Middleton met Prince William at university?
I was thinking that it was more metaphoric, in that, if you related the "bitch" that he's referring too as the dogma of religion?
It would have been perfect the sketch had ended with the vicar wimpering the words "Jesus loves me".
Is this Peterhouse chapel? Sounds as if theyre in a university context?
+Rushabh Haria It does look like it actually yeah! And David Mitchell did go to Cambridge
+TheMcfearless123 And was in Peterhouse, I believe.
Both did, but I think Robert Webb was at Robinson College (which was built in the 70s and has a modernist chapel - so it isn't that)!
This is actually the Royal Masonic School For Boys Chapel (now closed) - also used as the filming location for the School Chapel scene (Oh lord please don't burn us) in Monty Python's meaning of life.
At first, when Mitchell started talking, I was going "exactly". Then he mentioned Byron... I guess I knew form then on how it would end, but damn Mitchell... just... damn. You need help.
LOL crazy vicar.
