I love the fact that Lee doesn't take this too seriously. I mean he's next to what's considered 'hollywood stars' and though he's not one he takes it on the chin and makes loads of funny jokes about it. He's definitely the most funny one, I wish he was on the Graham Norton show more often.
But it was so obvious that his ego was bruised and that he felt awkward XD Instead of being like chill and normal, comfortable with his own accomplishments, he got all judgemental and sarky just because he was sitting next to a couple of Hollywood stars.
@@floratinuviel2762 To be fair, Lee is always the bright shining centre of attention and his jokes weren't considered funny by the rest here. I agree with you that he was visibly uncomfortable and tried a bit too hard to throw some sharp comments in, but he's only been on Graham twice and I can understand his frustration.
There is something so soothing about Matt Le Blanc's voice in "real life". He's well-spoken but in such a casual way that it makes you feel at ease. This was a great couch.
It's mellifluous. If youve ever heard Geoffrey McGivern, the guy had the best voice ever. Not stentorian, just very pleasing. He played Ford Prefect on the original Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy in 1978.
I like Matt, but sometimes he ruins his own story with (too much) mumbling around it. Zac does the same, using empty sentences and words and repeating them. Matt tells the story of the friends-restaurant-moment and voice-cracks; 'Yeah..yea..yeah..crazy...we had a great time..yeah, yeah.' Zac tells a story about the car and his friends; 'Oh yeah, man..they...they are crazy..we..eh..(story) so yeah, yeah. we're like that..yeah..yeah crazy man, but we had a great time, yeah.' It bothers me more than it probably should. I've been watching more British humour/shows and they don't really do that. If someone really speaks like that, all the time, I don't mind, but this is mindlessly filling time with verbal smoke.
@@rebelraccoon9018 I'm not talking about whether or not they were fine, I am talking about them being boring and dragging out the story, when it was not an interesting story. In comparison to Brits that speak quicker and get to the point.
Mat LeBlanc should be given an honoury UK Passport - He's an American who gets our sense of humour so well and seems such a great guy without any pretention. I know its an old clip, but it still makes me smile. lol He was so good in Top Gear, sad he is no longer involved as I think he and Freddie would have taken things to another level of non competitive hilarity.
What I liked is how Matt and Zac genuinely found Lee funny, as did I and Im sure everyone else. Because normally, the main stars on the couch fake laugh at the comedians jokes out of respect but Zac and Matt actually found him funny and they all got on well together.
I feel like Matt LeBlanc is the kinda guy that just has that low, intriguing voice with that certain demeanor that just lures you in and makes you listen to what he has to day.
Allways a delight to watch Zac again. So nice, humble and down to earth.. and yeah, stunning. And Lee is just hilarious. "I do)t want to go to your trappy little car Zac Efron 😏.. actually Im free on Sundays and Mondays 🤣.
@@85Aheadstix If I had to pick someone for a date, I'd go for Zac Efron for the looks and age. I'd pick Matt Leblanc to hang out with and just chat and be charmed all evening. And I'd pick Lee over either one of them when it comes to his show, the jokes, sharp wit, quick humor and entertainment. (I don't mean I'd actually date one of them, because they are too much of age and Zac seems indeed, a bit braindead.)
I don't understand why people view Zac Efron as "arrogant". He really seems like a genuinely nice person, so he touched Matt LeBlanc, is that really seen in a negative perspective? He's a fan, and admires him. They were all brilliant!
Graham's is the only show I know of which just gets better and better, even if you watch the episodes out of order and totally at random! Usually shows get better or worse over time, but Graham's show seems to get better in all directions! How does he do it???
Loving matt le blanc - have always done since FRIENDS. He's so down to earth and hes politely laughing at lees jokes depending on whether he gets them or not. Zacs just young and a bit naive. He's grown up so much since HSM.
I have the worst depression of my life and I am so thankful to this show- it keeps my spirit up a bit. Graham will never see this comment, but I’m very grateful…
Matt LeBlanc still makes my heart beat faster :) it's been 19 years since the pilot episode of Friends but he's still the man :) the How you doin' just...I can't even XDDD
I never really liked Zac Efron; I didn't dislike him, I just thought there was nothing special about him. But after seeing him with Bear Grylls I really think he's a lovely person! And I love Lee Mack, he's hilarious.
After reading the comments first, I was watching the whole show to find how arrogant Zac is and frankly, I don't see it. Where? Look at the way he sits on the sofa. A arrogant rich actor doesn't sit like that, he's like a school kid taking his first exams. He's so tense.
that is true, he was showing alot of nervous indicators (i.e hand to brow, tugging his ear) Most likely why he was so clingy to Matt was because he was trying to quell some of his nervous energy as Matt LeBlanc is very low key and soft spoken, and his character Joey or Himself (in Episodes) is very confident and charismatic. Idk though its just a theory
He's kinda stuck with having to promote yet another crappy romantic movie and he's stuck with Matt who's pretty much a national treasure in America and Lee Mack who's British comedy royalty, both pitching their much less serious (and a lot funnier) tv shows. He was always gonna come last in the funny moments category. I think he did fine. Matt is also getting Lee's jokes despite the use of Nando's and Noel Edmonds which American's naturally wouldn't get while Zach seems to be struggling a bit. He did a fine joke about the guy who did his Spanish voice work though.
TetchedFlame Or here's another grand idea (probably more likely): He brought his own mannerisms to his character of Joey. That's why he still has them, because they are part of him, not part of his character.
Matt LeBlanc def agrees! I think he was just as funny as Mack here, he even set up a few jokes or enlarged them slightly. True kind spirit, really enjoy him a lot.
Lee Mack is a comedian and a very funny one at that, he has very good timing. I don't know if all British guests are as funny though, but I like his dry humour, his comedy series is very funny, I think they mentioned i has been sold to over 100 countries.

It might be because Lee understands "hollywood stars" are just people, and there is no need to treat them like deities.

Matt’s pretty funny too

Matt Leblanc is so genuine and polite. Even watching the Friends bloopers, he seems so sweet.
I like Matt LeBlanc's dry humour - he's funny in quite an understated way.

Lee Mack's timing is always perfect! Great improv
Came here for more of Lee Mack's humour - he did not disappoint, especially with that witty nandos joke!
Canadian here. Love Lee!
can you explain that nandos joke
@@milo2324can you timestamp it for me? I left that comment 8 years ago 😅

I visited this video for Lee Mack.
forthetrullz me too.
Did you mean Lee down-the-end? :)
Loved Lee down the end super droll comments.... comedic timing at its finest 😊
Same
Yep
"What are they holding?"
Joey LIVES in Matt, even after all these years. x3
Lee Mack is a fucking great guy
Lee Mack YOU ARE A STAR ! NEVER EVER FEEL SMALL! You´are one of the NEW Classics in this life!!! Respect
i will never forget what my manager told me 'look round... get used to it'
Lee Mack steals the show
NOT AT ALL!!!! Matt LeBlanc owns the couch every time he's on GN!!!
Why is it that when I give you comment a thumbs up the count doesn't rise?
Every time
Do you mean Lee down-the-end? :)
Always!
God, Lee is just brimming with wit...completely outshines the actors...
He is a master of wit and improvisation...WILTY, anyone?
My god Lee mack is quick!
21:19 has to be one of the quickest bits of improv comedy I've ever seen!
12sin8 Yes!!!!
12sin8 He's always very quick, like in Would I Lie To You.
You haven't seen robin williams
Anush Takhelmayum Robin May have been more versatile than Mack, but Mack is wittier
Mate that's super slow by Lee Mack standards
Lee Mack is so hilarious, i laugh my ass off when he is a guest😂

This is such a good episode
So true

Yeah I don't wanna be a dick but I never understood the whole female hype for Zac, he's got a boyish charm but ...meh

Matt LeBlanc is just so goddamn smooth
Lee Mack is a warrior. Total legend.

Lee's so funny, man ! such brittish humor... Pure fucking gold!
Joey has done well for himself! So glad his acting career has gone successfully.
Marina is flawless, her voice is amazing and when she laughs it's adorable!
lee mack made me laugh so hard when he told that fictional "similar thing happened to me" story.
Lee Mack's sharp British wit going right over Efron's head
Efron is all looks and no brains

i'm not a big fan of him but it's a bit unfair to call him brain dead when pitted up against a highly successful comedian!
@rockn roll
Agreed.
Even worse, I look braindead on every couch and also when I'm not on the couch.
alias AGREED 💯
3:35 When he corrects Graham on 'Lee down the end' it's almost scary un-human, how fast he responds.
I love the silence that occur when Matt talks.. everybody is quite, just taking in the wisdom from this great silverback!
Matt is so lovable and he just flows into a comment that cracks you up. Love him.
"Don't touch me Zac Efron" no one ever said
Zac has the biggest crush on Matt
On a British show when the only other American star is one of America's biggest stars of any TV show ever? Yeah, I'd act like an idiot as well.
who doesnt
zack has the biggest crush on zack
zac totally has a crush on matt
I came here to say this. Also he is bold, he takes any and all opportunities to hug Matt or give him a friendly squeeze. Can't blame him.
Matt: "What are they holdin'?"
Joey (from Friends): "Holdin McGroin"
Zac and Matt are very funny...they are the first Americans i have seen to get the British humor and take the piss...I really enjoyed this clip
Haha the nandos story is clearly the best story ever xD
I don't understand why people view Zac Efron as "arrogant". He really seems like a genuinely nice person, so he touched Matt LeBlanc, is that really seen in a negative perspective? He's a fan, and admires him. They were all brilliant!
Matt LeBlanc - he understands our humour.
Matt leBlanc, quite likeable :-)
Lee Mack is the real talent. Nobody’s brain works quicker.
Matt le Blanc's daughter sounds adorable! And his "don't you dare" at the end was brilliant!
Graham's is the only show I know of which just gets better and better, even if you watch the episodes out of order and totally at random!
Usually shows get better or worse over time, but Graham's show seems to get better in all directions!
How does he do it???
Lee Mack underated comedian and entertainer = Would I Lie To You - this is the best comedy Panel Show in history. Everybody will love it.
Lee Mack is hands down the most talented person on the sofa IMO, he should have the top spot.
We saw Lee Mack in Australia. He was so funny and quick witted.
Loving matt le blanc - have always done since FRIENDS. He's so down to earth and hes politely laughing at lees jokes depending on whether he gets them or not. Zacs just young and a bit naive. He's grown up so much since HSM.
you can just feel zac fan girling next to matt le blanc :D
That alligator's going to write a book someday. "Being Ridden By Zac Efron"
Matt is beyond words; I love him to death. He's hilarious!
Never heard of Marina before but she has such a voice. True prima donna.
Lee Mack 🤣🎉🤣👍 he's killing it, what a Sweetheart he is
The way the three of them play off each other is hysterical
i love Matt Leblanc during interviews..He seems like a mellow kind of guy..

A little bit of Joey popped out when he rracted the conversation with his daughter about How are you doing?
He can't act very well at all. But I like him

Matt LeBlanc has fully achieved "Silver Fox" status. It works for him. He has always been a cutie pie, but wow! THAT is a handsome man.
Matt Le Blanc is the man
Zac Efron is just so charming. idk why i bunch of people are hating on him. he really is down to earth and humble.
LeBlanc was a star of this show, and he and Mack make a good comedic duo.
Loving the Lee and Matt banter
I definitely feel like Matt's time on a UK comedy has tuned him up to British humour, out of him and Zac he seemed to be on Lee's wavelength more
Lee Mack is awesome. Wish he'd come to America and do some shows, I'd be first in line to see him.
Matt LeBlanc. How is it possible for one person to be so gorgeous? I'm practically babbling with fangirl hysteria.
This is so classically British! One guy says he was taught to ride a motorcycle by Tom Cruise and the Brit says he has a lawn mower hahaha! Love it!
