      Mock the week has been filled with comedians ALL of whom are funnier than Tom Allen. As I said he is mediocre.
      You totally missed my joke about the OP's name being ellen. This explains the group comment. Ellen Degeneres is part of the LGBT group thus the props.

    Mock the Week has definitely been struggling for a while but unlike a lot of other commenters I actually enjoyed this one a lot more than most of the recent ones. They all seemed to actually be enjoying themselves - and DFW's jokes about women weren't just self-referential "oh she's a woman" kind of things, they were jokes about Mock the Weeks history because it's had a lot of controversy at times about women. As someone who's watched this for years and loved the show I thought that was pretty funny.

      +amphetamean-queen I think it has become more tame but that's more a result of consumer tastes and just the kind of work comics are doing now, not some crusade by the BBC to silence people like Frankie Boyle and so on. MtW is still doing some stuff that's more controversial than main stream just none of the kind of stuff that got them fined in the past.

    • @unamiqueta
      @unamiqueta Před 5 lety +12

      I'm with you. The point was to 'mock' the reputation the show has long had for having a designated spot for the single female comic and for never having more than one despite the fact that the comedy scene itself has moved well beyond a bunch of middle class white blokes and a handful of working class white blokes. What's funny (funny haha and funny weird) are the laughable comments below that DFW was obviously a "diversity hire"... Firstly, feck off back to 1994. And secondly... so the feck what? The festival/ standup scene is increasingly diverse and the joke has long been on the panel shows for not keeping up. When the MTW gig has become a regular thing for women, non-white or queer comics they have thrived (as TA does in this episode and Sarah Pascoe has in so many). Yet, when any comic makes their debut (in a format fairly removed from their regular gigs) they are torn to pieces, and more so if the youtube trolls have decided they are "diversity hires" (one again, please return, sirs, to the 1990s).

    4:56 'Gilet' - new word to me. Googled 'gillet' and got a load of diverse stuff not related to apparel. (E.g.: "Gillet is a Belgian automobile manufacturer, started in 1992 by former racing driver Tony Gillet. The company produces the Vertigo sports coupé, ...") I've also wondered about warm, thick winter coats with no sleeves. Arms get cold, don't they? Mine do.

      Winter vests are not supposed to be worn without smtg else, but the reason they are designed that was is that it is more important to keep your core warm where all your organs are. Plus you move your arms around a lot, smtg you can’t do with your torso. The most important things are covering your head cuz you lose a lot of heat from top of your head, keep your torso warm, and have warm, dry feet. Lots of people use those winter vests for driving in the winter cuz it protects the most important things without making you too hot in the car and if you are only outside long enough to dash in here or there, wearing a long sleeve sweatshirt underneath should keep you warm enough. It’s not like you wear a coat that goes all the way down to your feet so your legs are only covered by thin layer of pants too. Sweating from wearing a big bulky coat in the car could end up making you even colder outside than not wearing coat sleeves!

    How slick is Tom (8:44) as He uses his charm, wit and perfect timing; then looks towards the camera, flirting. Genius.
    The strength of this show has to be the various comedic (a tad obvious, I know) characters, and their assorted ways of delivering their bit.
    Great format and well refereed by Dara.
    Maybe it would be better having more females on the show to join the lovely, funny, Sarah Millican, Sarah Pascoe & the very smiley long legged one but to use it as a platform to gripe, as she did, above, is moronic.

      As someone who has to watch this on youtube from America, I will say she is not helping the problem get better in my opinion. There have been more than 4 women on the show (at least 9 I can think of and I don't even watch every episode). The thing is, they were also actually funny and involved with banter and not trying to drag everything into a political circus. It just messes with the flow of the show.

      But Deborah comes across as bitter and her jokes aren't funny or clever, she just sees an opportunity to complain about percieved inequality in the form of a joke. If I was producing this show, I wouldn't have her back if I could get Aisling Bea or Katherine Ryan instead.

Holly, well sometimes. Maizie could work as a filler. Oh there's a cracking funny petite American lass - might be asian or afro asian who is very sharp. Not sure if Sarah Milican's been on the show but she could hack it. But if any of that half dozen fell ill the producers would be strugling for a sub to bring on.
