It’s just a perfect exchange, both people say a string of stupid things - Anne not being a French name, just saying the name “Ann-Marie”, Tracy thinking Ann-Marie was a person rather than a slightly more French sounding version of Anne, and then that comic timing of the punchline that highlights how stupid they’re both being…
The expression "hold my beer" means you're going to do something reckless or stupid and need your friend to hold your beer for you, so you don't spill it. It does NOT necessarily mean you're about to one-up someone, and especially not by asking the one-upped person to hold whatever you're one-upping them with. It makes no figurative sense.
20:00 I'm with Rhod on that one - this happens when the last step is shorter than the rest because the escalator stopped in a weird position. Your brain on autopilot tells you "ok, just one more step", then your foot doesn't find it where it should be and you stumble a bit
@@buttonmasherpro1472 David Mitchell has apparently never walked up a stationary escalator, or he would not have emphasised physics over feelings. He also says “ the feeling…” when comparing the two systems…
A normal set of stairs has steps of the same height. An escalator flattens out near the top so the steps get lower and further, which can cause you to have some excess momentum because you were used to taking larger steps.
Wow, a moment when David is wrong! The top of a flight of stairs and the top of a non functional escalator are not at all the same. On an escalator the last few steps become gradually less high as you get to the top !
Also add in the fact that your brain is conditioned to believe that when you step off the top (or bottom) of an escalator, you'll already be moving, so it automatically adjusts your gait to accomodate that. But since the broken escalator isn't moving, this auto-gait adjustment causes you to lurch forward a bit, albeit not as wildly as Rhod did for comic effect.
Surely Ann, the French student who was ill in England, could just have pointed to her throat so the family could have worked out (when she rasped at them) what she needed?
Being Spanish, when I heard his underpants story and how he would wash himself in the stream of a cleaning machine, I knew it was true. Because tbh, I've seen british tourists do way worse.
Rhod's completely right about escalators. The steps are much deeper and taller than a regular flight of stairs, so you will definitely feel a bigger difference when you get to level ground. David, as usual, demonstrates that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. What intelligence he does have seems to have convinced him he's right in every situation, including ones where he actually knows fuck all.
Spoiler. Amazed that at no point Rhod's friend said, why don't you go ahead and throw and I'll catch. Or, and I don't know what gave me this idea, we can take it in turns.
The woman sniffed out the Spain story immediately: it’s true because the one night he slept on the street was the one night he didn’t have a lady to go home with
I'm actually surprised Rhod didn't want to stay in a hostel as I would've thought he'd have a great time meeting lots of people. I stayed in a lot in Australia for altogether about 2 years and loved it. Mind you I was early 20's and maybe he was a bit older. It would drive me nuts now as it's basically a bunch of kids locked up in a big house with copious amounts of alcohol. I had a ball.
No he was early 20's. A surprising number of comedians who seem bubbly and friendly on TV are actually quite introverted and don't like being around lots of strangers. I wouldn't be so sure about not liking hostels now - in my experience you're more likely to find a bunch of teenagers sat in silence staring at their phones than you are to find a party!
Please post all the last few years season's in full.. After the BS we've all gone through, To have this show back to normal is very needed for us .. as you would call, Plebs ❤
"It's a group of individuals of the same political persuasion, and in totalitarian circumstances it can become dominant" is the most David Mitchell has ever David Mitchelled, and I'm here for it.
"Just wondering if I lost a flip flop or a friend." God I wish Rhod was on the show more.
Once he's recovered fully from throat cancer and then climbing Kilimanjaro they will hopefully tempt him back!

So glad to know Rhod is pretty much back to being healthy. Would have really, really sucked to lose another top tier comedian.
Is he really ? I'm glad to hear that too:)
What happened to him?
@@cnaizhen He had quite serious cancer, stage 4, that's now in remission. Of course, when cancer gets to that stage the chances of a relapse are, sadly, substantial.
@@DodderingOldMan Oh shucks, and he's still young. Hope he recovers.
@@cnaizhen Just to clarify, he has essentially recovered. It's quite possible he will be free of cancer for the rest of his life.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: what a wonderful, strange life Rhod has led.
😂 As strange as bob mortimer or the same?
@@AJ-ei3ee No life is strange as Bob Mortimer's life 😅

For me, The Anne Marie moment is one of the most spit your tea out moments ever in WILTY....

@@davidgrounds2168 Good point. But right or wrong, it's usually pretty entertaining. Sometimes it's a bit off, but can't win them all!

That Welsh football team comment was gold 😂
I love how Rhod made it sound intentionally unbelievable
him saying Anne Marie is still the funniest thing that happened in this n i dont know why 😂
the fact that rhod decided to go homeless instead of live with people and had a holiday in a garage in france are completely unsurprising
5:44 rookie mistake - everybody knows you should choose a bush over a bench
Wow, a moment when David is wrong! The top of a flight of stairs and the top of a non functional escalator are not at all the same. On an escalator the last few steps become gradually less high as you get to the top !
Yes! Thank you, this has been nagging me for years.
Mitchel is often wrong. His narcissistic rants when wrong but trying to argue are irritating.

Rhod and the flip flops. Ha. Brilliant. This man really shines.......
What a fascinating life this man has lived
Indeed! Haha
Nobody flip flops better than Mr. Gilbert
But he's terrible at catching them
The perfect skill set for a Party.
12:45 Lee with the nerf nerf nerf is fucking gold 😂
After Bob Mortimer, probably the best panelist on this show
Nah... Henning
He's every bit as good as Bob.
I’m with Rhod, stepping off a broken escalator does throw you off. Your brain prepares you as you’re normally moving!
Send all good thoughts to Rhod as he fights the good fight against cancer.
❤
I'm Dutch and I would NEVER share my clogs !! 😊
Rhod is definitely my favourite guest on this show
Anne Marie? Who's she? Dunno.
"Is she?" she said.

He should have found a bush.

Vannes (on the southern border and coast of Brittany) is about 70 miles northwest of Nantes.
I agree with Rhod about broken escalators.
I doubt you can make up a crazy Story that hasnt happened in Rhod's life.
You've not seen Bob Mortimer?!?!
The flip flop story…how does the question “why couldn’t you just walk with one flip flop” not get asked?
Rhod is right, you fly off the end of an escalator but not off stairs
Spoiler. Amazed that at no point Rhod's friend said, why don't you go ahead and throw and I'll catch. Or, and I don't know what gave me this idea, we can take it in turns.
I knew the first story was true when he said three lads wore 1 shoe each and hopped together to a beach party in thailand.
I pray he gets better.

I stayed in a couple hostels when I was 14 which was really fun although I didn’t have to stay in a room with strangers, I was with my friends.
