If you got to where he grew up in Sale (part of Manchester) and ask the old neighbours that still live there, many will confirm all of Karl's stories of "the old woman with the husband in a basket", or the house "with a horse in the living room". All his siblings are real, and his parents do indeed now live in Wales. I was also sad enough to track down the guys that ran the place Karl used to work years ago (B&M Print, in Trafford Park), and they confirmed he was an idiot.
Well if he isn't acting then he is truly one of the best actors in history. Ricky and Steve have dealt with this idea that Karl Pilkington is an actor for so long, their response is simply if they were capable of creating such a great character, Sky wouldn't be the place where the sent him.
Another strong argument that suggests that he isn't a character is the fact that he has done acting jobs for Ricky Gervais before in Derek, in the bloopers he breaks out of his character and he is back to being Karl Pilkington again. Fame hasn't changed in because he doesn't really connect with his fans in the same way that most people do. He doesn't have a twitter account or anything like that.
Huh, I wasn't even really aware that this comes up a lot. And I'm not sure the guys who created David Brent and Gareth Keenan should be using arguments like "if we were capable of creating a character this good," you know? It doesn't make or break their argument but still... Okay, so say, he's real. Then what is his response to the general public reaction to him? Seems like he would change in reaction to all the judgement? I think his lack of rxn is what made me think eh is a character.
I click on the video and hear "there's a shadow some where" and im already dying of laughter.
"Its already good init! XD"
"a fire that didn't happen,a wife that didn't exist,and a cat that didn't look happy"
possibly the best sentence ever
“Cats don’t like spirits do they?”
"It was pushing people off their bikes" - I nearly lost a lung laughing!
Karl could have a go at changing your lung an that
I literally died listening to this, And now my cat is looking at me funny
RIP
A fire that didn't happen, a wife that didn't exist and a cat that didn't look happy.
Fucking brilliant.
OH SORRYYYYYYYYYYYY, I THOUGHT IT WAS SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIITE, I DIDN’T REALISE IT WAS ON THE INTERNET
6:10 "Oh shut the fff...oh Karrfffff"
7:27 onwards Ricky's constant giggling had me in stitches XD!!
the way he says "SLUGS" at 7:27 it's too much for me to handle.
SLOGGS.
can't get enough of Karl Pilkington he is such a funny man😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just the best comedy ever imo.
Thanks so much for uploading these! They keep me going in between heavy studying sessions :D lol
'There's this shadow, walking about!' Haha
"There's a shadow somewhere" Greatest way to start a video :)
"It's a bit weird but it's not harming anyone" is what they said about Karl.
I like how in Steves fake story his friend stayed on the phone until the pizza got there

Really? That's awesome! 👍Wonder where in Wales? North I'd guess, I'm down the South.

THIS was on the INTERNET!
Only Man United fan in the world I absolutely love!!
Dirty scouser 🖕
"THEY'RE BORN HAIRY!!!"
On the slug one you can hear Ricky crying with laughter the whole way through XD
School photograph they where like hang on a minute....
Karl should write kids stories!
Karl, I really enjoy your stories. Thank you.
"There was a shadow somewhere..."
Ricky's laugh is so beautiful.
I had tears laughing so hard.... ;-)
Man alive, Karl.
The slugs are eating the glue..... I died!
I knew from his first statement, that this was gonna be a good one.
"THIS was on the internet"
Lego of that Looooooool
Did anyone else genuinely want to hear the rest of the brain boiling story from karl lmao

This!... Was on the Internet.
Oh, SOOO-REEEEE.
...and a cat that didn't look happy.
"...it was on the Internet..."
Nice upload, I only wish you had included a bit more of the "boild 'er brane" exchange ^^
MORE PLEASE!
Turns out they’d bought a chimp. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
you missed rickys reaction to 'boiled her brain' thats the best bit
Karl is like no other. He is the original of....well, whatever he is. He's to genius to be compared to anyone. Especially Larry the cable guy.
"It's tinging it's way up the tube!"
Ting tong ping pong it's tinging it's way up the tube
I'd bum Karl in all of these photos.
It got hairier.
mad innit
Ah! Thank you. I remember it was an abbreviation, but couldn't remember exactly what it was :)
Without a doubt!
Karl really knows how to pull Ricky's chain.

SHADDAP YA BRIT
"boils her brain"
Ricky is very clever and funny, but his too-frequent interruptions rob us of precious Karlisms.
we're all characters
Poor Graham.
Looked up the slug story, it was in the Daily Telegraph and Yorkshire Post, so....
Hilarious.
Oed'en, get some syrup of figs down yer.
Yeah, I know! That's why these things are called "videos," they actually move!
Lego means 'play well' in the country it was made in (can't remember what country)
lool
''oh shut the ff,, ohh ka.. ff..''
Lego o'that
He wouldn't like that.
Mad innit?
dude I laugh so hard at him I inherited cancer.
THEY'RE BORN HAIRY!!! Such venom!
Why dont they let him finish ? He's hilarious
the slug story is true... to an extent
how do you know? i mean it's not that i'm sure he isn't, if you have some way of knowing, i'll believe you, but what makes you so sure?
I suppose I’d let Rick and Steve call me a stupid mank twat if they’d fly me around the world to see cool things.
a pork chop five years ago
Huh, I wasn't even really aware that this comes up a lot. And I'm not sure the guys who created David Brent and Gareth Keenan should be using arguments like "if we were capable of creating a character this good," you know? It doesn't make or break their argument but still...

Can anyone direct me to some truth or a real article about the 'Boston Shadow' incident?
play a record..
so not a character, I know people like this...
are you graham :)
weird init
He's like a British Larry the cable guy.
The pork chop tumor thing is actually (supposedly) true, a morbidly obese woman had it stuck in her fat folds....
Denmark,Leg Godt = Play Well.
..didn´t look appy* :)
the slug story was true!
*Generic comment about how you're making a generic comment about a quote*
your all living in the shadows
The problem is...slugs.
that pork chop bit has to be the dumbest thing he has ever said
dabombistshiznit it’s acc true though
Lettuce! Not Letters!
...stoopid sloogs
One person thinks Ricky & Steve are bullies, and it's just not funny.
Except sometimes, like the shadow story, load of bollocks l0l
sorry, SORRY... I thought it was SHITE.
He's not a character.
no, c'mon, karl's a character.. he's not really like this... i mean is he? no.. he plays into his role for the comedy...
Don't. Talk. Shit!
and americans..... hmm
how wrong-----
Yeah except Karl is funny.
Ricky can't into humour on the spot. He just either laughs or shouts at Karl, where he should be pushing the story to be even more ridiculous.
1 Person has no sense of humor
