Rare to see gordon acting like a schoolgirl talking to her crush.
Yess. I was thinking that too😂 like really he can't sit still on his chair... Its first time i have seen him like this
I thought it was the other way around.
When he laughed I thought his face would break.
Yes Sir! Fucking pedophiles everywhere
Right?
Wow, Gordon and Gervais in the same video and not one F-bomb. It's like they canceled each other out.
Haha like when 2 Jiu Jitsu masters face off and can't tap each other.
You just witnessed the personification of a double negation
Lmfao
I FOUND GAVIN!!!!!!
@Nihilism Sounds like he said "oh for fudgesmate"
I love how Gordon is completely on his toes, because he knows how quick and smart and cutting Ricky is. It’s so wonderful to see Gordon truly laughing and having a good time.
cunning
Gordon knows he met his match of ripping someone a new one! Ricky can be such a savage with out even trying!
With that being said I love Karl Pilkington's effect on Ricky, making him laugh harder than anyone ekse
Yes
After seeing a shi ** tload of episodes of Hell's Kitchen recently, this is quite weird. Yeah. Weird.
Ricky Gervais smiles the moment the hears anything he can turn *into* a joke. He hasn't even made the joke yet in his own mind, but he knows it's going to be hilarious anyway.
A true artist of the trade. Exploits every opportunity.
You are so right
Lol wait someone tell me, how did he do that at 2:45 with both of his hands on the napkin? ._.
@@lotaryguy12 you know how
@@lotaryguy12you eat a plopp duh
I love how Gordon turns into a little mischievous kid when he’s paired with Ricky.
well he looks pathetic in a way
I feel like Ricky Gervais would have that effect on pretty much any human being
Bryan Liguori it’s a different side of Gordon Ramsay when he’s not yelling at everyone how under cooked the scallops are....or..demanding the lamb sauce
Nia Rezek harsh 😂
Theyre both acting like schoolboys a cool perspective
*Good to see Jane brought all her friends*
Whose Kate? You mean Jane?....
@@TheSunBurnsBright
LOL. . . I stand corrected . . dont know why I thought she was called Kate. . . my old age is catching up with me.
she brought two homeless men as a charity
Not a crow in sight lol
brilliant
absolutely brilliant hahaha
I love their chemistry, the fact that no-one suggested they make a show where Ricky reviews (not critiques) Gordon’s food amazes me.
He's a character, perhaps too realistic for the vulgar taste
I want to see the one where Clarkson and Ramsay shoots things from a helicopter
What a s**t idea.
Lol wait someone tell me, how did he do that at 2:45 with both of his hands on the napkin? ._.
Gervais and Ramsey, the duo I never realized I always wanted.
Lick my duo
We never asked for this but we wanted it without knowing haha. Bang on tbf
I think Ricky's first barrage of jokes at the beginning is the longest someone has ever successfully talked over Gordon.
That's exactly what I noticed and I HAD to check the comments :P
Gordon respects the hell out of him and may have borrowed a bit from him as well. He's like a kid asking for a comic book artist to sign something he's brought.
@dogchaser520 You can totally see Gordan respects that grind and dedication Ricky has both to comedy and writing. Hard work recognizes hard work.
I’m assuming you just forgot about Marco Pierre White.
@@hariprahal1947 Marco Pierre White rides Gordon's coat tails now. All the ads for anything he does say "the chef who taught Gordon Ramsey" or "the chef who made Gordon Ramsey cry". Without Gordon people would say "Marco who?". Gordon has far surpassed Marco.
I love how flustered Ramsey seems, almost star stuck. It's adorable.
Nice profile picture 😂
i could be wrong, but i think its star struck

Ricky completely roasted him like Gordon has roasted everyone else. Satisfying how he could only chuckle, sit back, and take it.
Well yeah you can't beat ricky Gervais in a roast battle. Even if you're Gordon ramsay 🤣🤣🤣
The good thing about Ramsay is he doesn't mind having the piss taken out of him. The video of him with Liam Gallagher is a good example. Although Liam doesn't seem to like it as much
A poser couldn’t take it. I don’t think Ramsay is one.
Wasn't really a roast, just friendly jabs.
this is just a normal banter between 2 friends in brit. Nothing unusual. Also Ramsay doesnt have a reason to go after people like Ricky.
He is only strict and mad when certain chefs couldnt even cook properly.
I've never seen Ramsay smile so much, it feels surreal.
I don't think I've ever since Gordon get so genuinely tickled by any other person anywhere else.
My uncle is really good at tickling
@@acsuperiasnoipa our catholic priest is also good at tickling
@@cahles6679 they have godlike tickling skills
Uncles have ticklish mustaches
I thought he was getting pissed off that he couldn't lose his shit to begin with, he loosened up
Gordon's literally crushing on Ricky 😆 I've never seen Gordon so fluttery and giggly
Warrior Woman he doesn’t often meet people who are more quick-witted than he is I guess!
yep
Well the craic was ninety
Did you get wet from all the fan girling ?
Why do people always have to say gay shit? Why can't it just be two bros with a similar sense of humour (British, obviously) having a laugh? Why do people always have to go the gae wae?
Ricky has to be one of the most naturally funny human beings ever to walk the Earth. Not many people can make me belly laugh until I cry but Ricky does it with ease.
I think Karl takes that crown haha
Agree 100%
I'm not gonna lie to you guys, I could watch these two bounce off each others vibes for a whole podcast hahaha
It’s like Ricky was Gordon’s stress relief from all the bad kitchens
Yes
You're definitely right about that.
“Warning this clip contains strong language”
Me: I know... that’s why I’m here
😂😂
"No sh*t!"
But surprisingly, there weren't even a single curse word.
Cmon seriously 😂😂 the title contains both Gordon Ramsay and Ricky Gervais
You put gordon and then ricky himself what do you expect mate
ricky gervais is the only person on earth that could probably roast gordon.
Watch Gordon, Gino & Fred 😂 Their Road trips are fucking hilarious. Seeing Gordon gets humiliated by Gino and Fred is absolutely wonderful 👍
@@satanmitdengeilenbarthaaren exactly right
add gordon's mom and kids to that list. they roast him good as well.
@@VaibhavChimalgi uh yeah 😂
Johnny vegas look it up
I've never seen Gordon let his guard down and laugh this much before. Ricky was totally in charge here.
RUclips in 2020: Here's your two favorite British people. Laugh and forget how I, Lord Google, know everything you like and dislike.
And how the top 1% of the world have more than the combined wealth of the bottom 90%
But here, watch some millionaires chuckle
@Noelle thanks noelle, what a stellar suggestion
But about ricky, i'd say he's even worse because of the platform he has and the stance he takes on corruption and greed but does nothing about it
BigDog Tabooya these people deserve to be rich though. They both worked hard in their lives and got where they are because of it. It’s not like it was handed down to either of them.
Shanky Panky
It worked.
@@Ky-xm7tc @TaylorJ yeah and i dont know about gordon ramsay's politics, maybe he's a right wing capitalist
But its ricky gervais i find morally reprehensible
How often does he point out his left wing ideals to the world but at the same time does nothing to bring down the system that benefits him
I think if you achieve fame and dont do everything you can to mobilise the worlds disenfranchised people to take back what is all ours by distributing wealth and creating an equal society, you're a bad human being
You know, there are policy ideas like Universal Basic Income in america which would guarantee everyone 1000 dollars a month out of the richest billionaires profits that would hardly make a dent on their profits and would give the working class dignity and has been cost measured
Bernie Sanders campaigning for Medicare for All so healthcare would be free so a person without a cent to their name would get the same care as a billionaire
Healthcare is a human right, not a luxury of the rich
Where's Ricky campaigning for this?
He's not, he's happy to live in his exclusive club of financial freedom while the rest of us suffer
Couple that with the fact that he claims to be left wing, makes him worst than most
"you and Jeremy Clarkson, in a helicopter, shooting your cousins" ...
I would pay copious amounts of money to watch Gordon Ramsay and Jeremy Clarkson shoot crap from a helicopter
Ain't war hell?!
“Gotta distance myself from them” 😂
@@thejohn6912 have you seen the top gear special where they're like landscaping a yard and Clarkson just walks around shooting things with a shotgun? They'd have to come to the States to have any real fun though. I mean they could probably pay the army to let them shoot anti tank rounds as some sort of documentary advert. In Texas you can hunt wild boar with all sorts of tech usually banned in hunting, like vehicles, at nighttime, with infrared, and electronic animal calls, and automatic weapons. Got an offer to go once but it was short notice and couldn't make the trip...I did ask when the hunt was being explained, how's all this legal? They were going with the sheriff. It's because it's an invasive species and destroys billions of dollars of natural ecosystem and farmland
Fred Smith You know that in most countries you can go to a shooting range or a special area to shoot around? In Switzerland we have combat shooting, it‘s a sport where you‘re basically do what special ops do in training. Doesn‘t mean you have to carry your guns to Walmart ffs
Ricky's laugh when Gordon put the spunk Vodka on the table is hilarious... 🤣🤣
How Ricky is suddenly losing it is so funny
Ricky Gervais is always adorably funny & first time I’ve see Gordon Ramsey be polite & a little on awe of someone else. Loved this.
Have a look at Gordon, Gino, and Fred's Roadrrip, changed my mind of Ramsay, plus it's a funny show
@@AndrewDaniele87 ya
there was a segment Ramsay did with Norm MacDonald and he was much the same way. Guess Gordon has a funny bone :)
I love how Gordon is normally quick off-the-cuff with funny insults or remarks, but Ricky is that much of a comedian to outwit Gordon with funny remarks. They go well together.
I'd love to actually and even pay for a series of Gordon Ramsay and Ricky Gervais to have a to and fro comeback response series whereby they encounter serious and humorous situations in life and have good dining table banter. I think it would be a smash hit and I would subscribe immediately. Somebody needs to market this right now.
A true meeting of the minds.
Rightttt
@@seanverberne9550 THIS
Even Gordon's body language is different, he knows he can't just steamroll Ricky. Great scene.
I could imagine Karl Pilkington being on the f word
Gordon: How'd you enjoy your food Karl?
Karl: Yeah it was alright that
I'd watch it. Love Karl
Karl: I didn't really care for all the sauce splashed about like a child's drawing.
Gordon: But Karl, the presentation is important, it adds to the experience.
Karl: Experience? I'm here to eat a bit of steak, I just want to eat it. Why faff about with all of that? I'm just going to eat it and crap it out a bit later, aren't I. There's just no point to it.
@@AgentTexes holy fuck that's spot on
Then Karl would go on about some guy he saw on the street
@@AgentTexes I heard it all in his voice thank u
Ricky’s brain processes things so quickly, so witty
I love this. Gordon is usually the angry yet humble big dog, though in this video he’s TRULEY like a little kid that met his idol and can’t stop laughing. It’s so amazing
Since he hosted the Golden globes, Ricky is all over my recommended...here we are all 12years later😅
Typically it's because YOU watched a couple ricky related videos. So the algorithm just recommends what new videos you watch.
So whenever folks say "omg who's getting these too??" Well, you brought it upon yourself.
RUclips wont go recommending a makeup video if all you watch is monster trucks.
sacr3 bet you’re fun at parties!
Damn did they age well
Be original asshole.
sacr3 actually it will. Shows what little you know about the algorithm and are just trying to sound smart lmao

"Please."
"I'm a genius..."
I thought steve merchant was the genius…. I wonder if ricky told him to say that.

I had never seen Gordon having such a genuinely good time and laughing that way, he is having a blast! Very wholesome footage.
You ruined your description by ending it with the lamest, most meaningless adjective the internet has ever come up with.
I recall seeing him having a very good time with Gino D'acampo and Jonathan Ross. And I think that cooking segment with Norm Macdonald on Conan deserves at least a mention.
@@einundsiebenziger5488 it’s just one word
He's on his heels the entire time; Ricky's just got him by the balls, a better wordsmith.
Though to add, he's obviously star-struck.
I HATE, HATE, HATE when there are popups in the end for other videos covering most of the screen!
Yeah. Me too. Is there an option to disable it?
If you slightly slide ur youtube tab (portrait mode) down on ur phone the popups disappear
AutobahnAddict calm down
Wow other people noticed this too? I wonder why nobody's complaining about it
@@gavhr01 thanks!
I love how they're like brothers or even twins, Ricky is like the comedian version of Gordon and Gordon is the chef version of Ricky. Both strong personalities but hell, they have fantastic chemistry
Gordon is used to being the witty one in the room he’s caught off guard by gervais and I love it.
The Swedish “Plopp” commercial had me laughing so hard, I woke my wife up. I just kept rewinding it over and over. 😂😂
THAT is a top tier comedian’s brain working, right in front of your eyes. Effortless.
This was „god mode“ comedy. I rewinded it for about 10 minutes
Mmm Plopp is my favourite chocolate :)
Same! So on point, genius
He didn't skip a beat and delivered a spot on joke. Legend.
Oooooo de Plopp!
Ricky is a genius, Gordon is an artist. And they both are too genuine for others to handle.
Gordon artist?
lOl Ricky is an Artist, Gordon is a genius.
Both are both. WTF does this pseudo quote even mean.
@@googleinc6033 Wrong again.
@@vampirethespiderbatgod9740 what is a pseudo quote? A quote that isn't really a quote? In which case what reference is this guy incorrectly quoting?
I don't think I've ever seen Gordon laugh so hard around someone before or be lightheartedly upstaged 🤣🤣
There's just something so wholesome about seeing these two middle-aged men laughing at "Cock Flavoured Soup" and "Spunk" vodka.
They're like a pair of schoolboys chuckling at dirty jokes on the playground. XD
The only man ive seen get ramsey all flustered and unable to respond
"Where do you live.... with pumas and humongous foxes? Narnia?" Omg i died 🤣
Gordon: this iS SERIOUS
I love how Jane is just sitting back and letting him rip. I'm sure she knows better than anyone that if you wind him up, you just gotta let him play out.
I was looking for a comment about Jane, she is quiet but amazing, he would probably be nothing without her, she's what allows him to be who he is.
Although I think Ricky is hilarious, I found it a bit rude to exclude Jane from the drink of vodka. I get that the interview is about Ricky and Gordon, but, to drink and exclude the other person at the table…. IMO is kinda disrespectful. Just an observation.
at 3:50 you can see her holding a glass of aged spunk
Yep. Gordon gets three glasses. Never let it be said that Gordon Ramsey wouldn't offer anyone his Spunk.
I haven't seen Chef Gordon laugh this much. Especially like a silly teenager.
Who’s on a Ricky Gervais binge after the Golden globes ? 🙋🏽♀️
Definitely got 100+ suggested videos and I am happy!
Yes
4 days straight now
My G
me lol
Ricky Gervais has a way of dissolving someone’s ego & making them humble, even himself. That’s why I love him.
I dont think gordon ego was at the prime while they shooting this. He was yet to be crown the best chef of the world. (Even though, he sucked at cooking Asian, African, South America, and more ethical food. And those are fucking continent, not countries. So bit weird people called him best chef)
Gordon has the most fun and excited personality when he’s just plane having fun! It’s nice to see someone who has worked so hard to get to the top be so human!! What a bubbly fellow he is!
Ricky is probably the only person who could outwit Gordon like this. What a funny duo. God bless Jane for dealing with Ricky's shit for so long lmao.
I have never seen Gordon giggling like this😂😂

@@FriendlyHomie the humor is very british
What's amazing to me is that you have Ricky Gervais and Gordon Ramsay in the same video and still felt the need to warn people that this clip contains strong language, as if that wasn't the most obvious fucking thing in the world.
It brings me so much joy to see Gordon laughing this hard. I wish I could see these two together more.
Gordon has at least one of the following:
A. Drugs in his system
B. A man crush on Ricky
C. A trained sniper on him making him laugh (like Jimmy Fallon)
or his all angriness is exagerated by show buisiness necessities and in a situation with a comedian he fells he have to play more the pleasing audience.
A trained sniper. Are there untrained snipers where you come from, ffs.
madeleyinc Yes. There is such a thing as an untrained sniper, asshole.

I can’t even tell what they’re saying at 323. Unintelligible. Regardless, all I’m sayin is it’s not the swearfest u were expecting right? People are unpredictable and erratic. It actually makes all the sense in the world tho that they pull it back.
@@junlee6663 It certainly is not the swear-fest I would expect in a video with Ricky Gervais and Gordon Ramsay together. Indeed. I would also agree that people are unpredictable and erratic. I'm not sure I follow the logic that it makes "all the sense in the world" that they pull it back, though.
Anyway, in case you are interested, here is a self-made transcript from 3:20 to 3:26:
Gordon: "Okay, finally. To wash it all down:"
Ricky: "Oh,-"
Gordon: "Er-"
Ricky: "For fuck's sake!"
Gordon: "It's closer to Sweden; it's Denmark!"
Rickey: "Yeah,-"
Gordon: "Okay?"
Ricky: "Okay."
Ricky's got canines. Is that why he's so sharp? lol
I hope he uses them to bite your face off for that awful joke.
@CJ P. Nah keep it real joke was bad, unfunny and didnt make sense. Miki H's was actually a joke..
You know Gordon's a good guy simply for his appreciation of Ricky's humour 😅 love this exchange!
These two are perfect together, Same sort of mindset as if they were brothers.
You have two tough minded personalities that aren't scared to tell you out loud how they think at any given moment, And they are sharing a laugh together, It's awesome!
