I've seen all of these multiple times been listening for over 10 years and still listen every single day. I don't think I'll ever get bored. I love these lads. They help me through tough times
Same here, I’ve listened to these for a decade. Almost a nostalgic feeling now, but I never get tired of em and still listen all the time
I was introduced to these 3 years ago and it's all I listen to at work. Absolutely love Karl
same
What's your fave ep?
Same. Been ten years for me also I think. There’s just something in these that nothing else can quite capture.
the last sweet episode. Karl gives them gifts and you can just here the sincerity in their voices. aww.
I always love coming back to season 1, the windups aren't as intense and Karl actually laughs on occasion. It's a bit more wholesome.
At the end of the first series it’s very wholesome, at the end of the second series Karl wants to quit. Completely different endings. Prefer series 1 as a whole.
It goes from light hearted wind ups to just blatantly taking the piss after this lol
I mean, you’d get frustrated with Karl as well. He’s an adult that requires the patience of a kid to interact with. He’s a moron that is funny on accident. Probably has an undiagnosed learning disability. Always seems to be missing the crucial detail..
😊
The excitement when he says "They loved it" about the magic trick is the purest thing in the world
there is a light by the smiths, what a perfect ending to the series.
genuinely heart warming episode
and the dog goes "whas that"
+Erling Hansen Haha, always gets me that bit
and KP the actor was born.
"Woshda'..?!!" :D
Ricky's laugh as well lol
missed that ill get it next time round !
7:33 "A flea cannot jump over the London Eye!!"
"Y-yes it can. Yeah it can."
LOL Steve
Technically it can, if it was put on a ladder that was near the top it could jump off and therefore go over the London Eye. Karl was right.
@@kygodragon4782 Karl...HAS WON!!!
Steve calling the disabled athletes sneaky always makes me laugh
Gunhall the way he says it sounds like he’s got such an evil grin on his face 😂
No they are, you've gotta be careful.
Well they are to be fair.
Always trying to cover their tracks
@@Wankle. lol
Love Karl talking about the girl in the shoe shop. The absolute venom in his voice "oh you can't can you, because your ankles are so FAT!" Haha
Completely agreed, and well put. Venom. Indeed.
I absolutely adore when Karl's unfiltered, sincerity comes out. There was no script, no planning, just pure thought and emotion. Love it.
@@studkickass513 Like when he's talking to his "neighbour" in "Learning English with Ricky Gervais"
@@BaldMancTwat Hahaha, yes! Exactly! Well done ✅
LOL ya its hysterical when Karl genuinely gets livid.
@@BaldMancTwat And when he's leaving a message for Duncan on answerphone.
"....sneaky aren't they" -Steve Merchant's best line
The last minute is so sweet. Mr. Ben book he's so proud of that he wants to give to Ricky and then borrow it back to finish reading and the chat-up lines book for Steve. I agree with someone who posted elsewhere saying it's probable that Suzanne bought the gifts, but Karl is so happy and genuine giving them and Ricky and Steve are so warmed.
This completely transforms my mood like literal medicine.
Same here. I’m starting to wonder how I could get through daily life without them haha. The best opium.
As opposed to figurative medicine...idiot airhead.
"This bread's popular."
@ikham shamble Yeah.
@ikham shamble are you deaf? Is that why you talk like that? Get a lobe of this
It isn't
"A baby midget? That is tiny Rick."
Lol.
If anyones interested, the match Ricky betted on ended 2-0 to arsenal
of course 2002 what a bell end
Did Henri score first?
squad Dont know but wouldn't of mattered
@@studkickass513 Nah it was Ray Parlour. The obvious choice.
@@MrRickyTeague XD thanks bro!
An' she did madonnas "like a virgin" and I was like yeah right...she was a right ropey little woman
Borat Sagdiyev Sour 🍇 x
Hilarious thing is he said he was 12 at the time.
How "tarty" could this girl have been at that age? 😂
🤣🤣
@@Scallion_D oh you’d be surprised. There were tons of tarty girls in my year 7 class who’d done things I’d never heard of at that age. And that was in 2002.
Ricky letting Karl have the book genuinely reminds me of my parents buying me toys as a child lol
dog: "WOSH THAT?!"
I love Ricky’s “What..?” at 1:00.
Genuinely surprised/scared at what Karl just said.
It's called 'acting'
Queen had that "mouth" on her 👀😫
"..and I pulled the tea towel off... and I just had hold of egg!" LOL
It always makes me laugh at 16:50 you can hear Steve say bloody hell under his breath when he realised he'd dropped a clanger with the cash in hand announcement
Omg what a catch! Never noticed that
Karl is so adorable when offering the presents
Been listening to these guys for 15 years, i probably would not have liked it when it was on 20 years ago. I have listened to all of these hundreds of times and probably will always listen 👍
I’ve been listening to these for over 15 years now, every year. I totally agree - it’s one of those constants that’s just quite soothing. A home comfort.
"She was a right ropey little woman" haha I laugh out loud, every time.
This series is getting me through my serious depression.
Take care x
Why so serious?
@@kygodragon4782 lol, that's a good point.
Keep on trucking buddy, life is a marathon.
I was listening to episode 14 last night and now have woken up on the last episode! Damn playlists!!!
+lcfckid I bet you had some mad dreams ;-)
+Man Moth I have done the same many a time and had (mad😜) dreams involving people talking the anecdotes and conversations from the show. Weird innit. x
lcfckid yea I've done that the dreams are the most mental thing.
Karls presents were so sweet
S - "Is he walking like an Egypt bloke?"
36:10 the orginal lizard & scorpion/"Egypt Bloke" story which somehow turned into "little monkeys under the ground or something" when Karl tried telling it again in S2E14.
I've said it before and I'll say it again; you are my hero Man Moth ❤️
@ikham shamble smh I'm embarrassed for you🙈
@ikham shamble oh gosh how embarrassing trying to get a gf over youtube🙈
@ikham shamble Play a record
You had an absolute nightmare here
@ikham shamble Alright Steve Mitchell.
I hope they all know the happiness these shows bring people.
Have used these to get to sleep every night since about 2015 but, since I normally fall asleep halfway through, there’s still loads of bits I haven’t heard and am still discovering
Lets get married
Ricky Gervais, Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington for the last time…
A phrase we’ve all heard so many times and lulled us into a false sense of security that they’d always be back 😔
I almost know all the words & im still drifting off to it? ❤👊🇳🇿
52:53 Omfg 😂 “listen to this for a tip. Make a necklace from electrical wire~ but don’t plug it in” i lost voice I didn’t expect lmfao
Aw Karl bought them both a present how sweet is that?!
Super sweet ^_^
I think it's quite sad retrospectively. Shows how his morale deteriorated through series 2 and 3 :(
+jcrawley1 yeah I think you're right actually :(
+Jennifer Parkinson oh come on his life was never that bad. He carried on working with them up until 2011 on broadcasts and is now a millionaire
+Jennifer Parkinson to be honest, I think Suzanne did it.
Would love to see the footage of Ricky “resorting to silliness” and putting a Budweiser box on Karl’s head
This episodes great, I think series 1 is probably the best.
martin63613 3 Volvo’s
"It does. It clearly does."
“Does he walk like an Egypt bloke?” Steve is razor sharp
What a lovely ending that was. ❤
TOUCHING.
Good man, moth. manmoth is now my keyword rather than XFM. can't tell you how appreciated these are mate.
Karl impersonating a dog going what’s that 😂
Man I love you . They are the best trio ever!Thank u
The title to this episode should be "You've got the hair of a Chinaman"!
The current title always brings me down
I'm surprised Karl actually backed down on the queen swearing, usually when he's told that something was a lie he says stuff like "I think there's always a bit of truth in these stories" or "they say there's no smoke without fire"
Genuinely surprises me that Ricky and Steve straight up telling him that they were lying was enough to stop him believing it. I think that's the only time he's stopped believing something.
Definitely one of the best episodes they did! I love them all but this is one of the top ones!
"And an ant can lift three Volvos."
Love Karl's little "yeah" after Steve says he got a silver in the high jump. 6:26
"You're so funny and handsome and well-"' hahaha
always cracks me up
Thanks a lot for these uploads. Can't stop watching these.
Thanks Man Moth
Stephan merchant “a job in the shoe shop ? Not sure your qualified “ 😂😂
*you're
A barber's on a railway bridge?? Can see it on a platform, but on a bridge?? Lmao. These shows make me happy.
Listening to this is so hilarious...nobody is listening to the Sony award winners in 2020 and yet xfm out here killing 20 yrs later
For week after week in the first series, Steve especially went out of his way to impress upon Karl the importance of being inquisitive, not accepting everything at face value. Fuck of a lot of good it did.
Karl is observably more inquisitive than Steve. He can’t articulate himself the way Steve can but Steve has all the standard liberal points of view that you could expect him to. Nothing inquisitive or imaginative at all.
There's this shadow in America...
Karl showing he's a sweetheart getting them gifts, bless him.
man moth. legend. your .my one stop shop for everything smerch gerv and kman
I feel like why this season was the introduction to Karl and Karl at his most happiest which is really nice, Season 2 has the best character arc we go through a man who just constantly gets worn down by his two other presenters to the point where he has to go to Hastings to escape from it, we didn't know at the time if the show was coming back then in season 3 they wrapped it up revelling Karl came back but he needed Mondays off to recoup after this show
It was in series 2 that the other two stopped trying as much and ran out of things to say, and dumped all the responsibility on Karl who wasn't really up for it.
Spot on. They then came back for season 4 which was just hours of treating Karl like shit and then Ricky fucking off to present Live 8. I really hate how the radio show finished.
@@Glozboy22 Agreed, series 4 was a waste of time
Coming to the end of series 1 always makes me sad, because I know things become much more hostile between these three after they come back
I feel the same way! The honeymoon period is over now!
Yeah, it's kinda sad how miserable Karl becomes too, you can hear him laugh often throughout series 1, but then it all goes downhill lol.
Especially the episode in season 2 where Karl really breaks down because Ricky is having a go at him the whole time because Karl sided with management over that rejected skit. Such a tense episode. The friction was mostly between Steve and Karl. Still some great episodes in season 2 though. And the birth of Monkey News, Rockbusters, and the Film Thing.
Agreed :(
HeatyFrog Unfortunately Steve didn’t appear to accept the fact that Ricky and Karl male up the comedy gold and he had become a third wheel. x
No idea how so many people apparently fall asleep to these. I find them far too entertaining
Steve thinking being tall doesn't help in the high jump is the stupidest thing he has said on this show.
"Obviously I could do Will Smith cause I can do the rappin'" God I love Steve in these early one's
And the dog goes “whaasshhh that?” Had me dying 55:00 😂
Ricky's "Whaaat" at 1.00 is absolutely hilarious..I can,t put into words how much that one word encompasses the effect Karl has on people.
anyone else straight over to series 2?
Rory Stead this is still my favourite season. Season 2 is brilliant but goes off the rails towards the end
I’ve been listening to these for years (on one channel or another) and I’ve always been reluctant to listen to this series because series 1 of anything is usually weaker, but I’ve been listening to it this week and it’s actually hilarious- will listen to it again straight after!
Well going to number two after finishing number one is generally the correct procedure...
Congrats to you though for getting that right.
@@kygodragon4782 Wrong. For the true chronological experience, you listen to the episodes with Karl, Simon and Nick at the Edinburgh Festival before going to Series 2.
I listened to this show as it came out. XFM was such a great station. Christian O'connor on the breakfast show and this or J.L.C on Saturdays. It didn't hurt that the indi music scene was great too.
"...Bloddy 'ell..."
7:24 "...The flea can jump over the... London Eye!" :D
"Yeah, you can have all the toffees and stuff you want, you can have like yer nice t shirts, but at the end of the day love you're stuck with these ankles."
A top Karl moment! :D
Walk like an Egypt bloke
I sooo wish I could have seen Karl when he does the impression of the dog dropping the remote control...‘Rrrat’s rrat?’
ricky is breathing very heavily in this episode
All that cheese XD
I can't unnotice that now and it's painful omg
Buster Cassin he's prob drunk
Kirk Wilson definitely, I actually wonder how many of these he was sober for. one of the biggest mysteries of the xfm shows for me is: what kind of tablets was gervais referring to in that one episode where he mentions them. "kicking in early"
I don’t remember the tablet part?
47:04: ''The Great Pilkoni'' Come on, Man Moth. That should be the title.
Karl saying he really wanted a job in the shoe shop put a thought in my head of him moonlighting as Agent 47 in a shoe shop worker disguise, he's got the hair for it.
Or the head for it
Thankyou 😃😃😃
I wonder where that Bafta bag is right now in the world? I wonder if that person still has it?
did a bit of googling but couldn't find it on ebay or anywhere!
My cousin has it. Its in a frame in a house in herefordshire
@@guypritchard2451 i will buy it for a 100 quid
guy pritchard pic?
@@scoobydoo1093 Pic? Of course he's full of shit.
So sad when you hear this again....the endinng, but the beginning...brilliant
Never gets old
The effort that continuously goes into making Karl look gay just to say “oooooh ello” is amazing hahaha
Feel like series 1 is kind of like the honeymoon period
"Christ, de Berg"
Buy it ferry
“That wasn’t a barber, that was a man with some scissors.”
Karl seems so happy on this one ....love it 😂
6:59 not often the phrase “Don’t talk rubbish” is directed at someone other than Karl.
in november i desided for no reason to follow the series week for week, as it was 20 years ago, and listen to the songs as well. it was listening to this that introduced me to ash, the smiths, cat Stevens. and to some degree lez leplin. it was the first time i heard the rain song. it was great! it makes a different experiences on the series, occasionally pausing it and listen to the song, karl put on.
Sorry? 🤔 You "desided"?
Or did you 'decide'? 🤦🏿♀️
Im sory...should i play a record?
@@montypython4ever It's sorry*, not "sory".
I’ve often said to myself I’m going to do this too at some point! But it would require a lot of faffing to stop and start the songs. Much easier to let Karl’s drivel continue on haha
I was the Karl Pilkington of my friend group, I said silly stuff and had a buzz cut and the other two were a slightly chubby guy who laughed at everything and a very tall guy.
Have you ever thought about doing a radio show together?
@@ManMoth afaid it may not be possible. I'm in contact with one, the "ricky gervais" of the group but don't know if our steve will join the fellowship 😔
Karl's talent show 🤣 I wish I'd seen it. The hair chewing story was something our parents used to tell us to stop us chewing our hair.
Inbetweeners mode at 19:28
Ricky's "animals don't do things they like to do. They do things for a reason" line has always bothered me, cos some animals 'reason' IS that they like it. Like my dog wanting his belly tickled.
The 2 Chris de Burghs fighting, and then 2 ventriloquist dummies fighting backstage kills me
You know who I would love to see Karl have a conversation with? Freddie Flintoff
+theresuga With Tyson Fury
Walter Bishop from Fringe :p
these thumbnails are the best
"I think his name was Mr. Woodbine."
Been listing to these non stop for years but I can’t find the episode where Ricky says “what’s the female version of a bar mitzvah” and Steve’s says “bar titsvah”
Ive been listening to these now once or twice a year at least for 17 years now and "hair of a Chinaman" still makes me have a belly laugh
"Walk like an Egypt bloke..." Hahaha
Love you Karl (from a scouser!)
27:22 - That little noise Ricky makes, he sounds like a frog, he was gonna laugh but thought he better not.
Hehe I love those restrained bursts, like he might just snort out a lung! :p
The noises make me laugh so much. You know that if he let loose, most of the show would be just Ricky laughing.
I'll never forget that one unintelligible outburst at Karl that was just a string of half-words and grunts. Annoyingly, I can't remember exactly what series that was, though. There are so many episodes.
7:01. Like a transition from a dirt track to a paved road innit...
The appearance of the Great Pilkoni 😂
21:55 Fat ankles bookmark
