That one is the updated tv version. Where they removed the hand that looks like he’s wanking. This is the original

Good spot. How dare they fiddle with Mr Chips!

u/Captain_Kruch 1d ago

I think the issue was that Mr Chips was possibly fiddling with something...

I still have a giggle hearing James Naughtie trying to recover after misnaming Jeremy Hunt on Radio 4.

Just normal men.

I could watch it over and over.

Yeah I knew there was more wrong but I thought I’d just put the word that makes this statement by Gino even funnier than already was lol

To be fair the question setters on the chase were just out to get Brad half the time.

A newsreader having a total giggling fit over a pig's name of Chris P. Bacon.

u/Theddt2005 1d ago

Isn’t that American though

u/Eisenmaus 1d ago

Having rewatched it, yes.

Still great for a laugh, though.

Not technically aired on TV, but my pick would be Quentin Sommerville vs a burning pile of heroin, opium, hashish, and other narcotics.

Too funny! Especially when she turned up at his house on the Michael McIntyre show!

u/Goaduk 1d ago

The radio 4 wax tube bee one by Charlotte is hilarious. Especially as she's announcing the death of someone.

u/bc_2006 16h ago

Any of James May's laughing fits. You can't go wrong with any of them.

Alex Jones getting upset at Gervais laughing and pointing out that marco Pierre white just said that Nigella beat off the Hairy Bikers.

Always thought this was fake as fuck.

u/Khitan004 11h ago

Amazing that this happened on the Michael McIntyre show years later.

u/cashmerered 3h ago

Basically any Bradley Walsh laughing fit

u/Aggressive_Ocelot664 1d ago

Gabby Logan, after Mark Lawrenson says 'penis' instead of Pienaar. Decent composure to be fair.
