Mock The Week S10 E10: Milton Jones, Holly Walsh, Ed Byrne
i) Hugh’s sly boasting about being asked for his autograph. Show off.
ii) Ed Balls playing football. The things I miss by not having access to a Daily Mirror every day.
iii) ‘Dara, don’t take this wrong, but fuck off.’
iv) Admittedly, the ‘grate’ Britain joke went over my head. :P
v) All of the stand-up. Holly Walsh quite dry, Chris very exuberant, Milton Jones completely brilliant.
vi) 12 years: ‘If someone was half my age, how old would they be?’ You wish, Hugh.
vii) The sushi-radiation joke.
viii) ‘I actually prefer the word ‘chamber-pot’ to ‘Putin’.’
ix) A shining beam of light versus a beautiful snowflake. Maybe the best conversation in MtW history.
x) ‘What do I see myself doing in 5 years time? Exactly the same, but on Dave.’
xi) The genuine happiness when Hugh, Chris and Milton won.
All in all: a really great episode. I like Holly Walsh a lot, and of course Milton and Ed are pretty much my favourite guests ever (with Seann Walsh, naturally. Coincidentally, are he and Holly related? Probably not).
I did actually wonder was it too late to do this round-up thing, but then I decided it’s never too late to watch MtW over and over. Thanks phantym for the youtube link. I also found ‘QI’ and ‘WILTY’, so yay.
Anyways, what I did today: bought a French phone so now I can finally ring people again, signed up for some broadband internet in my flat (somehow this is going to take 2 weeks to be installed), and found out that French keyboards aren’t the same as UK keyboards (the WAZQ are in different places! WHY?!).
