James Acaster buzzes in very early on Blockbusters. This clip is from the 2019 Christmas Special, on Comedy Central at 8pm. www.comedy.co.uk/tv/blockbust...
i always watch james and my mum said "if you got a boyfriend like him I wouldn't mind because he is smart but also funny" james if you have a younger brother who looks exactly like u and behaves like u im coming for him
You could tell James was the only Comedian contestant there. After he got buzzed out comic gold would have been to buzz in at exactly the same place James did.....
Little known fact but James was originally cast to play the part of young Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy II but in the casting call, when he was suppose to just point at the button that blows up everyone, he kept pressing it. "I just can't help myself."
I was confused until they said no one has done this in the show then I was like...wait a sec; time for a rewind! I figured it out eventually. I'm guessing I don't need to add that I'm not Batman.
If there's a couple thousand words that start with L, and hundreds of thousands of people watch this, there's 100% probability that multiple people will guess it
Dude i don't know. I thought people like this were a myth. In the full episode she talks about how the pyramids were built by aliens in the future, the moon landing were paid actors and evolution isn't real. If I were james i would have just walked out of the studio at that point ;)
Lol i know u commented 6 months ago but here's a video I found with more of this episode! Lots of great James Acaster moments in there: ruclips.net/video/vHexwW_t4Ss/видео.html
Not sure why everybody is disagreeing on the lemming thing, of course they throw themselves off of cliffs, why do you think they gave us tools to make sure that they don't
Hey Warren could you lend me a million for medical treatments? In fact it doesnt have to be a million at all just pay for them as they go as i need a few. Thanks
@@nicosmind3 - No. I'm a billionaire, I don't have have time for your petty injuries. That being said, Apple stock is still at a great price to buy in! Make sure you don't miss out!
They've got Comedy Central in the UK now too! Lots of american shows like South Park and Impractical Jokers but with some of their own originals. Wish we got some of theirs over here too.
This particular channel has been making their own shows since it started in 95 under the paramount channel, changed it's name numerous times but it is same owners as paramount/MTV/spike etc.
I remember one episode of blockbusters where Bob Holness was doing the gold run and the contestant was asked to choose the first hexagon. He chose CZJ as his first and before Bob could ask the question the contestant answered Catherine Zeta Jones. He was right. So it has been done before, as asked in this clip.
It never ceases to amaze me how society has a penchant for elevating people with no discernible talent and the IQ of a baked potato, to celebrity status. I'm sure that Ms Moffatt is a thoroughly charming young lady, who it would be a pleasure to be served by in any given retail or fast food establishment. But to give her celebrity status when her only claim to fame is watching television is clearly ridiculous. Her lack of the most general of knowledge is quite alarming.
Giving James any buttons to push is an extremely risky move
Agreed but floppy haired inbred's "run" the major countries "democracies" give him the the codes and big red button please.
🤣
James Acaster must've been a chaotic nightmare joy of a child, and I love it.
You should read his book 'classical scrapes'. Then you'll understand what a chaotic nightmare joy of a child he was :)
Oh I didn’t know this was a game show. I came to see James rant about Blockbuster.
It was on throughout most of the 80s and 90s
Well this is news to us, not from the UK people...
I think that due to the rule of three's Acaster should've buzzed in for the third time, and guessed correctly.
While sitting on his hands, he should've hit the buzzer with his forehead. :D
I need more James Acaster in my life.
His stand up is really good too
And less scarlett. Pointless and utterly irrelevant
He’s got a channel now!
@@nationaljen Oooh ! Thanks ✌️😊
Not heard a more relatable statement...ever😂
"What L..."
*ding*
"No.."
James Acaster MUST be protected at ALL COSTS!!!!
i always watch james and my mum said "if you got a boyfriend like him I wouldn't mind because he is smart but also funny" james if you have a younger brother who looks exactly like u and behaves like u im coming for him
he does have a younger brother loll better watch out!!
For some reason I expected James to headdesk the button when he was sitting on his hands.

james is the light of my life
His laugh at 2:11 is just so cute.
You do know what a leprechaun is right?🤣😂
I admire his unwavering self conviction lol
He should have answered "It's a trick question there is no L because its Christmas. " '
No L you say? Noel indeed. It is Christmas.
Wheeeey! You're here all week, try the fish.
James is everything ❤️ what a king xo
This was clearly a dedication to Lloyd.
James is a very funny person…
I genuinely was going to guess Lemming when James buzzed!
I guessed lymph node
Same here, and now my head is blagged because I'm thinking maybe I've seen this before but can't remember.
The very definition of chaotic good.
I was confused until they said no one has done this in the show then I was like...wait a sec; time for a rewind! I figured it out eventually.
I'm guessing I don't need to add that I'm not Batman.
Oh, what fresh L is this?
LEMMING WAS MY INITIAL WILD GUESS. WHAT THE HELL.
HumbleHe ME TOO I WAS BAFFLED
If there's a couple thousand words that start with L, and hundreds of thousands of people watch this, there's 100% probability that multiple people will guess it
Bizarrely, leprechaun was mine.
Mine was Lambretta. :(
Funnily enough, leprosy was mine
How does she get through a day unscathed?
Dude i don't know. I thought people like this were a myth. In the full episode she talks about how the pyramids were built by aliens in the future, the moon landing were paid actors and evolution isn't real. If I were james i would have just walked out of the studio at that point ;)
Hey, where's the rest ? Ended too soon
Lol i know u commented 6 months ago but here's a video I found with more of this episode! Lots of great James Acaster moments in there:

My god, I thought leprosy too. Great minds.
lmao me too
I thought Lapland as it's Christmassy :L
Amazing
Not sure why everybody is disagreeing on the lemming thing, of course they throw themselves off of cliffs, why do you think they gave us tools to make sure that they don't
You mean Blockers, Diggers, Umbrella parachutists, and the diagonal ladder builders?
When I thought I could love him more
I kinda wanna see an entire show of people giving stupid answers over and over just to watch Dara slowly go insane.
Haha I guessed Lemming 😂
I guessed Lemming and now I’m shook
“Are, they the ones that hoy themselves off cliffs aren’t they”
How were James’ answers better than Scarlett’s?
That’s not a surprise if you know her...
Imma need a link to the full episode boys
liked it during the pre-roll advert
I was tinking 'Lithium'
I half expected him to hit the button with his head
i love that acaster gets so much love, i thought he was the comedian for introverted nerds.
You know, I guessed “lemon” for the small rodent. I had sworn there was a rodent that was named that. Closer than I thought lmao
I guessed James' guess before he did.
First time genuinely thought Leprosy
*Comedy Central??* Are they getting involved in British shows now?
Hey Warren could you lend me a million for medical treatments? In fact it doesnt have to be a million at all just pay for them as they go as i need a few. Thanks

Comedy Central has been a TV channel in the UK for years, used to be called Paramount Comedy Channel.
This particular channel has been making their own shows since it started in 95 under the paramount channel, changed it's name numerous times but it is same owners as paramount/MTV/spike etc.
James Acaster is a fucking treasure.
Lemmings don’t hurl themselves off of cliffs.
😆 Nice
Does anyone know where I can watch the full episode?
So this is the new Mock of the Week?
This reminds me off the world's most successful competition, Rockbusters.
I thought it “leviosa”. Well.. it worked like a charm in my head at least.
Thought this was gonna be James' thoughts on big budget movies.
I remember one episode of blockbusters where Bob Holness was doing the gold run and the contestant was asked to choose the first hexagon. He chose CZJ as his first and before Bob could ask the question the contestant answered Catherine Zeta Jones. He was right. So it has been done before, as asked in this clip.
Leonardo? We still doing turtles?
James is my weird crush 😄
Damn... it’s not laparoscope
Literally the first word that popped up in my mind when I saw L was Lemming.
i literally cannot believe his girlfriend left him for mr bean imagine leaving THE james acaster for a 60 year old
I did NOT believe this at all but google said you were right. James is the perfect man why leave for Mr Bean????
Another classic scrape
*bashes face into button*
What is he on?!?!
Why are the two other contestants basiaclly sat on each other?
EHKodiak LMAOOOO
LEMMINGS DONT ACTUALLY DO THAT FOR GOODNESS SAKE
This L which was herded off of cliffs by some awful people trying to make a nature documentary...
Is there no comedy quiz show that Dara will not host?
why did i guess Leprosy too?
Poor Dara. James always rips up the rulebook on shows he hosts
.
Facts
I see your point.
I disagree.
love him or hate him richard really is spittin facts !
How can u be so sure?
That wheel... ehrm.... that is on the bottom of the shopping cart or office chair doesnt move. Whats going on there? The initials are J, A
What L?
Only humans and armadillos can catch the awful disease leprosy
Is that the girl from little Mix?
She was on Gogglebox, Celeb jungle
@@openhighlowclose9385 Oh I see, looks like the girl from little mix
Imagine having a face like hers.
James took the L
No, no they aren't. That was a myth perpetrated by Disney that persisted only to be reinforced by the popular game series.
It never ceases to amaze me how society has a penchant for elevating people with no discernible talent and the IQ of a baked potato, to celebrity status. I'm sure that Ms Moffatt is a thoroughly charming young lady, who it would be a pleasure to be served by in any given retail or fast food establishment. But to give her celebrity status when her only claim to fame is watching television is clearly ridiculous. Her lack of the most general of knowledge is quite alarming.
Except they don't and Disney forced them off the cliffs to die.
To all the Brits passing by: GET OVER IT! Get over it, I said! Stop sulking!
