It really would be great to have Morris back on TV making comedy again. Much missed.
Get him to do whatever replaces “this morning”. That’ll be interesting! 🤣
The media bigwigs are frightened of the truths he tells.
Always said he'd be great as The Doctor in an R rated Dr Who.
Dream on! We live in the age of "woke culture". Serious business.
@@felixfox8810 Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination". Morris isn't a racist, so what point are you trying to make?
Watching this from my deathbed after 3 years of seemingly inexhaustible malpractice and delays actually perked up my day a little. Thank you Chris.
God bless you.
I'm so sorry.
That's rough. Seems futile, but I wish you well. I hope your departure, when it comes, is dignified and painless. All the best, my friend. 😔
May God Bless you!!!
🙏🏼☦
I love you, man.. really!
Odd that he doesn't talk about Tony Blair and breaking the link between GP's and their practices as this undoubtedly opened the door to the American style healthcare 'service' sector in the uk and led in no small part to the absurd situation we now face.
Nailed it, of course he did. If things carry on the way they are, we’re all gonna end up quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.
So long as my arms font feel like a fortnight in a bad balloon

As the above replies indicate, it's a strong feelings kidney which ever way you slice it
That man with the white hair in the left of the frame was absolutely determined not to laugh or clap or smile 😂
noticable mooch.
In an interview Chris gave a while back, he said there was no point in doing any more comedic TV shows like he'd done in the past because events in the real world are now more bizarre than anything you could write as parody.
Most of his sketches came true
I think there’s still vital work to be done in that field- it’s just that the approach needs to be tweaked. What was notable about Sasha Baron-Cohen’s very Brass Eye-inspired show “Who Is America” from a few years back was that while Chris would ask conservative MPs to condone obviously made-up issues like Cake etc., Cohen could get Republican Senators to support and campaign FOR his insane and made-up schemes (guns for toddlers, etc). So that sort of satire still has a place and has more power than ever. In this video he proves he’s still got it and his voice is still vital. Hearing him talk now is like finding water in the desert. But Chris seems to suffer from the same creative paralysis that caused Andre 3000 to stop rapping and only to communicate via flute. I wish I knew what wand I have to wave to get them back in the saddle and to put their bloody flutes down, so to speak
I’ll never forgive the nhs for my mothers mis-diagnosis for 18 months by her local GP, he ignored her symptoms, told her to do different, completely useless things, and when she and my father moved, her new GP sent her for biopsy…..by then she was stage 4 with lung cancer….her treatment was disorganised, with dept’s not communicating well together, and was sent home just over a week before her death for my 75 year old father to “ look after her “ , against her wishes ……totally incompetent….
I can honestly say that watching a keynote speech to the LMC Conference wasn't something I foresaw being a part of my day today, but I'm glad I did. Great to see Chris Morris in such fine form, and the thrust of his speech was certainly worthy. The Answer Prancer says Chris got this right.
Your ' day today'. Was that a pun?
@@happyapple4269 The phrase actually fell out naturally - but I thought "Well, that's appropriate" :)
Wrong that he was allowed to do this, when in the 90s he glorified the abuse of 'triple sod', 'yellow Bentines', 'Clarky cat', and, worst of all, 'cake'.
Fookin disgrace.
Directly responsible for many being triple jacked over a steeple hammer and ending up on the jessop jessop jessop
@@Robfnord well said. You paint an ugly picture. But we shouldn't shy away from the harsh realities of what this man wrought.
Remember, the scourge that he glorified affected the stable, educated and middle class, not just, say, builders and blacks.
But he'd put a stop to Shatner's Bassoon & Joss Ackland's spunky back pack !!!
It’s a fucking disgrace
Morris never misses.
Terrifyingly intelligent man.
Sharper than the tools around him 👌😌🫂
Brass Eye series was top notch
Our misfortune is that he's usually 20 years ahead of his time.
I totally agree! He certainly does hit his target, all the time, every time 😎
Do you class yourself as intelligent?Just out of interest. I have a friend who’s always getting told by people, “well, you’re obviously a very intelligent person…”
What I’m trying to figure out is, is that person, who’s saying my friend is extremely intelligent, are they themselves intelligent?
I mean as observational bystander, the person telling my friend they’re extremely intelligent, just seemed like a bit of moron.
I dunno, what do you think?
Ur a Tory.. u would enjoy a fish in a pond
Chris Morris. The reason I can’t take tv news seriously 🎉
The Day Today was probably more accurate than GB news.
@@rumourhats Obviously
He’s lost none of his sharp satirical wit, and he’s clearly someone who knows the value of our health ❤
No he clearly doesn't. The NHS is a corrupt wasteful juggernaut
Chris Morris speaks for everyone that knows what is really going on and actually gives a damn. If I am one of those people thank you Chris for speaking up for me.
No he doesn't.
Interesting. Morris' Dad used to be my GP. Doctors come up again and again in his work, especially in "Jam"!
It's something I always noticed as well. Some brilliant sketches
Jam was awesome, way ahead of its time
Yes his doctor sketches are some of the best, there's just something hilarious about hearing a doctor say absurd things in that calm and reassuring GP voice, haha. It's great to see he is still so interested in the profession.
Synchronised Cocks. There, I said it.
Swing your hips. Make it slap against your thighs.
😆
What was his dad like as a GP? I’m very interested to hear 😊
Words cannot express the adoration I have for Chris Morris. A comedic genius and a true legend of a man.
sames
His psycopathic doctor skits from his 1998 Blue Jam radio show were a brilliant look into what our dystopic future had instore for us.
There was such a lot of stuff that they got on the nose...or were extraordinarily prescient about...in Blue Jam, Jam (TV) and Brass eye...I think both Chris Morris and Armando Iannucci have continued to be very spot on...especially about the nature of 'rolling news' and the consequences of the 24 hour cycle...but I also thought that whilst 'Jam' was very horrifically 'surreal' (I used to be sort of fascinated and haunted by it when I was a teenager...especially the 'fuss, fuss, fuss, fuss, fuss' mortuary 'welcome', and I would stay up late into the night to catch it on channel 4) I think, although low key and more 'implicit' than actually stated, a lot of what Jam and Blue Jam was doing was commentating on the fragmented, isolated, shattered and actually quite sociopathic nature of our economic system and society at large in an extremely absurdist way...now the absurd has become actual reality completely!
symtomless coma lol
Bravo Chris, you are a genius.....the man to his second right (Our left) should listen rather than pour his silent scorn upon his incredible intellect, his face said it all!
Probably a Tory.
@@ianucci Yes indeed!
It's great to see the man Morris still offering satirical commentary on current affairs!
Get Morris back on TV, someone give him free reign. Brass Eye has never been topped.
"disguised as a school" lives in my head rent free 🤣
Part of the state media's trick these days is to turn the tables and present news and current affairs in the absurdist satire style Morris pioneered. It's so blatant to anybody who pays attention to it, it's almost like watching The Day Today and the people who once would have been satirists back in the day have probably studied Morris's work and been recruited to work in today's mainstream news media.
@@OllieW501"it was the last thing we wanted to happen" for me
@@worldwed 🤣🤣🤣 Absolute classic.
'Dressed as a glans.' 😅
Chris was on Radio Bristol some years ago. He did quizzes and we had some great banter, and even rang me up one day and said 'Come on the show as no-one else has rung in!' We always had a great laugh. He sent me a badge with 'No known cure' on it. I sent it to Doc Cox who's an old friend, who wore it on 'That's life'.
I think Chris was chucked off Radio Bristol too. It proves how good he is.
@@meh3247 I bet you're fun at parties
@@moisturisedgnome1181I highly doubt he ever gets invited to parties.
I think he let helium off in the studio.
But I thought Chris Morris was dead, I saw him jump out of a high window during an office meeting
He is, this is a dvd video he made in case of his death.......
ARE YOU SURE?!
This is incredible. I wish he was minister for health, he seems to have a better understanding of system pressures and solutions. Primary care and Public Health need a lot more funding and support.
feel free to share it and spread the message :)
It always needs more money. When will the money be sufficient?

Yessssssss....Chris is back! I thought he got high off cake and hid in the Balearics illegally or was imprisoned for making the 2001 BRASS EYE special
If only people like this ACTUALLY had the power to change things. What a wonderful country we would be in.
much like the NHS Chris is an absolute institution, a national treasure. We really don't see or hear enough from him.
The NHS is NOT a national treasure, it is a bloated mess.
I thought he was dead!
Bring the GP surgeries back under NHS protocols and rules, it's a disgrace at the moment I rang my surgery 270 times and couldn't even get onto the queue to get an appointment.
If only it was people like this running the health service
They can't get sponsorship from hedge funds who profit from destroying the UK, or the Russians. Tories get funded by both.
The problem is politicians not the NHS staff.
Wish this guy would do more appearances...
He's an incredible public speaker. Great to hear him talk about such an important topic
That was the last thing I expected to turn up on my CZcams front page: usually it's something like an American Bro reacting to hearing about Africa for the first time. But CZcams somehow pointed me to something brilliant this evening. People don't listen to Chris Morris enough. He knows stuff.
I've always had the utmost respect for Chris Morris, thats just gone UP to a higher level!
Getting a serious point across with top notch humour takes some doing!!
I’m so glad to see him again since he’s not in the public eye that often :) he’s such a genius
Chris, we haven't forgotten you buddy. Speak more please. I think you should do an interview with UK Column, it would be a great show of good minds.
There are very few people whose keynote speeches to, say, the LMC Conference, I'd be interested in watching. Chris Morris's is one. That was excellent.
Great stuff. Hit me right in my Shatner's bassoon
One gets the feeling that Chris Morris could give a speech on practically anything and make it both factual, relevant, and of course extremely funny.
Chris is wonderful at what he does. I miss his tv work. ❤
Love Chris Morris and happy to see and hear him on such great form. ❤️💙❤️
omg, give this man a TV series again PLEASE! 🙏🏻
The word genius gets thrown around a lot; but it certainly applies to this man.
Great speech, though what we could see of the rest of the platform seemed a tough crowd.
Long day ahead of them
Brilliantly observed as usual. Looks like the top table were a tough crowd!!!
The guy next to Chris was doing his best to stifle his laughter. The chap to his left was clearly not impressed, presumably wasn't fond of home truths.
What a man. Total Legend.
already commented on Twitter re one of my heroes. Our local LMC rep fed back and yes- well and truly epic.
It’s not big. It’s huge 😂
1000000000000% agreed with everything he said. Everyone please take note as much as possible, and do with this what you will....
That's a great finish. Wish we saw more of Chris not to mention hear his thoughts on the modern body politic.
Chris nailed it. We need a properly funded NHS, not some top whack quack shack.
No Hope Service
@@seanp8220What the Conservatives are turning it into sadly
During the 'pandemic' my local Tescos remained open and fully staffed
Meanwhile, my local doctor surgery padlocked their doors shut and are still essentially in hiding
I don't think there will be any more pot banging for the NHS in the future
Same with mine! For some reason they never went back to the service they had before covid. It is still essentially impossible to get a face to face gp appointment, the opening hours are still limited with two half days a week, even telephone appointments are really sparse and difficult to get. So often if I call up I am offered a call back from a paramedic! Wtf does a paramedic know about a 25year chronic complex crohns disease case! I'll tell you... eff all!
Yep, that gp service has royally died on its arse, it just needs to be buried.
I wish Chris's dystopian GP feverdream would get commissioned for TV (not the NHS!), I would watch the hell out of that. Definitely someone who's underrated as a writer of surreal short stories, this reminds me of the Blue Jam monologues. Love his deadpan delivery, and great to see him giving a bunch of GPs bellylaughs!
Glenn Cullen there seems hard to impress.
Fucking hell! I'm not a joke! OK! I'm a man, a man, I am...a man!!
So glad this was filmed 👏🏼 👏🏼
My neighbor and friend suffered a catastrophic stroke overlast weekend. she lives alone, is epeleptic, and has already suffered a stroke leaving her with very limited mobility last year. she had been laying alone in her living room unable to move for atleast 24 hours. if my ma hadnt climbed thru her window, worried after my neighbour hadnt responded to my ma's txts, my neighbour would have certainly died there, alone on the floor. shes not likely to recover, according to the hospital, who rang my ma asking HER if it was worth operating, because she had no "quality of life". they rang my ma asking her to act as next of kin because this woman, whos only 45 btw, had no one else in the world. where were her carers? where was the concern for her as a disabled person from the health service? they dont want give her an operation which could potentially sort her out, because coupled with her epiliepsy and other physical ailments, is a deep depression and "personality disorder". they let her almost die and shamelessly shifted the responsibility of her care and well being and her fucking life onto my ma. things are bad. having been treated for almost a decade for my own mental health issues ive become so jaded seeing services disappear and the nhs fall apart. ive had alot of different gps,and i can only say there was one of the whole rotten bunch who listered to me. the others i canf. i cojld rant on this for ages but i'll leaveit there;: i pray to god that my friend and neighbour survives.
Love Chris Morris, he's hilarious and very profound!
I met Chris once off Oxford Street with my good mate Rob the Blob. We were looking to get into comedy and he was very nice and took time to answer our questions, We had a demo tape which we were far to scared to give him. Great days
The deliciously creamy moist engorged thing about Mr Morris's speech, is the reactions of the two gentlemen on the platform immediately to his right.
Love it when such a great guy shows his face and makes everyone with visible birthmarks more confident in their appearance
Weird that the man second to Chris's right doesn't crack a smile throughout. What a fun guy he must be to spend time with.
The NHS is a mess, I remember clapping for them during covid, I will never clap again after what I've had to go through with them and being told to wait 5 hours for an ambulance.
Bloody right cheers Chris for all your efforts on this and I'm also a massive fan of yours too.Lets hope that enough people hear what is a common-sense approach and we're able collectively to put enough pressure on them to achieve this! As you have said its what we ALL WANT,NEED AND DESERVE.
Another lament that springs to mind is that you wouldn't get this kind of intelligent satire commissioned on mainstream TV anymore. Bring back the "The Day Today".
It's almost 30 years and the perfect climate for an anniversary comeback.
celebs will say anything for money these days though back then people were a bit more cautious mostly
I wish every one of you the best of luck dealing with this inept cruel government ........ just watched Laura K and to say I am livid on your behalf is an understatement ❤
Laura K is part of the problem.
I think my GP should just put this on their answerphone/website: 'If you're not dead or dying you're wasting my time, if you are dead or dying call 999.'
Thought he was definitely Costa Del Blowfly. Good to know he’s still out there
You do speak for us Chris, we need our GPs back
No we don’t.
@@demonnick666 Yeah, we do...
Funding GPs will save us money in the long run, because people will find illnesses before they go to hospital.
And apart from the money, it could save your life.
@@demonnick666 oh yes we do
I love British people and we all know what’s going on , but to many pressing issues to understand what’s happening , our ability to access our tax paid nhs is being undermined compromised as we speak , someone like Chris Morris to explain in a good way is vital , and should be on main stream news in uk 🇬🇧
Can't even see my Dr anymore, can't call for an appointment, can't go into to book an appointment,all I've got is a useless App that at best i get a response with a single message that they can't help or maybe it's on its way.
Completely broken.
Straight for the jugular in the most charming way possible. Thank you Chris ❤
He may have been "the most hated man in Britain" but he was simultaneously one of the most beloved by his man fans.
@@instinctnotintellect LOL. Them too.
And his lady fans...
A great man. It’s a shame voices like this aren’t made more public.
It's also a shame they aren't made more audible.
@@abody499 What?
@@abody499 Absolutely. I had great difficulty hearing the actual words. Laughter came over very well though.
This situation is bigger than you think Chris- It's large.
Love the expression of the bloke on the left; seems to be; 'who is he and why is he here?' Reminds me of the old man from Four Weddings.
Dude on edge of screen clearly loving it.
🤭
Practically upstaged Chris!
For those unaware, seek out "Brass Eye" or "The day today". SOme of the most amazing comedy ever.
Superb.
Fantastic ❤
Did the 2 fellas sat next to Chris profit from PPE contracts as they very rarely laughed!!! 😬
Thanks for this. I really miss Chris. A man after my own heart
Laughter the best medicine, thank you for the exquisite precis cm for pm
This guy was my childhood entertainment, I was far too young to understand the day today but I laughed along with my uncle and grandad and when I watch it now (Im 40) it has me in stitches
News into fact won’t go
Very good ❤
Like the face on the guy next to him - clearly agrees, and finds a lot of it funny and poignant, but seems to be thinking "These stiffs next to me hate this, and I'd better not enjoy this too much."
All I've heard about Morris is that he's a very nice, self-effacing man. And a zoologist. Which doesn't mean he's studied giving buns to elephants, btw.
After the last 3 years lost any faith I may have had in the "health" establishment
Bloody brilliant!
He still looks like he’s just returned from a weasel fight. I bet he won that fight though, I bet he kicked the weasels face off.
There's money in it, if you're good
I've seen a man die weasel fighting
“IM A DOCTOR, BUT ITS STILL A WAR”
I am currently selling my house prepping to emigrate to Canada.
When I first told people I was planning to move abroad a common response was "what about the NHS?"
What NHS? I pay all this tax to be put on a waiting list, or to have a 5 minute phone conversation with an overworked GP, forget a face-to-face meeting unless you are elderly or an infant. Everyone in between is left to fend for themselves.
At this point I would rather pay insurance and be seen as a paying customer, instead of a resource drain that the NHS doesn't want to know.
Brass eye could pass for a legit news program these days
Not too many if any Brass Eye fans on the platform
Noncense.
If you fancied a stint in number 10 Chris, I’d vote for you.
I live in Rotherham. Worked for a care firm. Whistleblew about the safeguarding of children. So far I've had
- windows put through
- illegal gag orders from the employer
- appointments with doc ect who have told me I AM RIGHT to whistleblow
- appointments with police that say I AM RIGHT to whistleblow
- 3 witnesses, police not spoke to any of them yet, refused to take details
- refused to take laptop which contains evidence of wrongdoing
- when asked if this is the same process that "systematically failed young people in Rotherham" Policeman rolled his eyes and chuckled
Yes really. Anyone has any suggestions please give me a shout.
Bloody Brilliant!!
Had a strange feeling I was gonna learn more about the warble fly as he approached the lectern.
In a sane world, Chris Morris would be health minister and Rory Stewart PM.
Allowing pharmacists to dispense more drugs with no prescription, and do consultations in busy supermarkets and chemists is mad.
MP's have private medical care of course.
One of the first comedians canceled. Should take that as a badge of honour.
The best GPs know their medicine ( not surprisingly) but have the ability to communicate in a down to earth manner. This is something sorely lacking in some GPs in Britain, especially those under 40. Medical schools really need to impress on trainees the importance of empathy and warmth to patients, which goes such a long way in making the relationship work. I have been astonished by the po faced, remote attitude of some GPs in recent years- something is clearly going wrong. In contrast, in France GPs are much more relaxed and affable in my experience. They are happy to chat and chew the fat for a few minutes, largely unheard of here. If they have not got compassion and empathy (people know it when they see it), they should do something else that is not public facing.
I’ve yet to meet a GP that understands a proper diet, how to avoid diabetes, what fasting is and how it is good for you. In short they are some of the most unhealthy people I’ve ever met, they think getting on a drop handled bicycle and getting to work is healthy. GPs do not get educated these days on how to prevent anything only how to feed drugs to slow things down.
They probably start out like that, but your emotional circuits can only handle so much every day before burning out. Especially if any extra time spent on being warm or doing small talk eats into the time necessary to check boxes and hoop-jump.
Basically, its less the people than its the system. I don't know if its true that older GP''s were taught more empathy but if so I'd guess that they learned it over decades (less stressful decades at that) of experience.
Maybe because the British healthcare is under more stress? Just a thought. Empathy is also very taxing, I can say that as a former healthcare professional.
@@ragetobe you nailed it! GPs spend the majority of their careers trying to reverse the ravages of metabolic disease. But they have very little deep understanding of what it is, nor how to prevent it. Most of these maladies begin decades before diagnosis and medicine is involved far too late to have any meaningful effect on reversing most people’s decline into unhealthy oblivion. Do you really think that the stiff arses on the panel realise the true importance of exercise, quality sleep, getting as far as possible from the standard American diet and maintaining good social networks. Modern medicine is really just the frontman for big pharma……kicking the can down the road, dishing out endless little white ones and watching over the steady decline in their punters health. Society expects too much from it’s doctors, who exude a veil of misplaced self-importance, seeming unaware of their own limitations.
"Some GPs"? Good GPs are the exception that proves the rule.
The kind of General Medical Practice I was involved in in the late 70s seems a far cry from the lack of service I now get as a patient as a nearly 70-year-old retired community paediatrician. Is it just the pressure of stupid HMG targets and protocols, or have GPs simply lost the ethos of family medicine, and care more about their remuneration and leisure time [sorry - work-life balance] than their patients and their vocation?
No. It’s the uncontrolled immig….
Its the Tories.
NHS privatization is the one thing we didn't want to happen.
@Alan Mackenzie : Good Paedogeddon ref, not enough upticks.
Any particular reason why the UK trains half the doctors that Cuba or Greece do . Maybe they are richer countries ? Any particular reason why 2000 triple A grade A level holding students were turned away from medical schools in the UK? Have doctors ever gone on strike over this artificial shortage of doctors . Have the BMA ever voted against increasing the amount of medical students ( apart from in 2012 ? ) . Maybe the BMA think that less doctors per capita equal better health outcomes???
Theres one name why we are short of drs and nurses the halfwit that took nurses burserys away and didnt train more drs .the names david camoren .plus some years ago the rcn decided to put in degree nursing which takes longer .
They brought in degree nursing 20 years ago .why i do not know but that excluded many who have the abilitys but not so good academically and took there burserys away what a stupid thing to do but then who would expect any diffrent from camoren and osborn . As to the guy talking never heard of him .if thats humour you can keep it
really enjoyed this - that bloke far left is a tough gig thoug
