Charlie Brooker and an array of guests take an irreverent look back at 2013. For more Charlie Brooker tune into the new season of Weekly Wipe starting January 9th 2014 on BBC Two.
Yeah I kind of discovered him recently when reading his columns in the Guardian.. they always cracked me up, so thought I'd check out his other stuff. My favorite fun fact about him is his wife is Konnie Huq.. the hottest woman in the UK.
Mark Daniels Yeah he married a kids TV presenter that most guys who spend most of their time playing video games would have only dreamed of. He columns have been published into several books which are worth a read. He started off as a games reviewer. You also need to check out his TV show Nathan Barley.
I'm doing the same. But I started with 2010, and moving forward into the present. Because it's like I am re-living each year. Each terrible, terrible year.
@@noisepuppet Yep Indoctrinated and infantile We swallow every stupid lie Denial, blind hope and optimism, Hold up walls that are our prison Evidence, data who needs that?

Now, I haven’t studied history Or any political economy, Don’t know shit about anthropology Or developmental psychology I have no expertise at all No diplomas hanging on the wall But I know all that I need to know Because Jordan Peterson told me so Now I am registered with Jobster Looking for work as a lobster So, hang on tight we’re going down Slavish fools to knaves and clowns No money left for the sick and poor We've spent it all on endless war And edumacation, well who needs that?

Imagine a 2020 Wipe... Alas.. I mean how could we even begin to blame him for a lack of recent Wipes... It must do him some serious mental damage sifting through the absolute shitstorm of 2020 and the run-up years to even begin trying to make it funny and meaningful as he's done so deftly for years before. I'm watching these enjoying the gleeful poking of fun at the state of things as if things can only get better... hopefully we'll all laugh about the last few years at some point somehow. Until then.. who'da thought we'd be looking at 2013 for comic relief! Can't wait for the next spider infestation headline that never happened
its really something to watch each of these in order and watch each year start with 'more escalation/chaos than last year' and then think about where we are in 2020
Really? That's mad. Round here, people get ridiculed if they're not athiest! Not that that's right, it's just a novelty to find anyone under 45 that's religious where I'm from.
That just makes me wanna go to Oklahoma and piss off the God freaks even more. Drive round in a huge RV with THE GOD OF THE BIBLE DOES NOT EXIST painted in huge letters on the side, with loop recordings of Stephen Fry, Richard 'The Dork' Dawkins and Bertrand Russell tearing Christianity a new one blaring from speakers on the top.
"If you looked closely, you could sort of tell it wasn't real... because they weren't quite right - their knees weren't quite right... but in Breaking Bad, it was so well done, you'd never think it was computer people at all. Their knees were spot on! It was amazing!" -Barry Shitpeas
I love the bit about having a bet that the old Pope would regenerate into Peter Capaldi. Charlie Brooker is a great writer and presenter. I generally love everything he does. :)
You realize that you have "Thatcher 2.0" as a Prime Minister atm? Theresa May also thinks that "trickle down economy" does work (it doesnt ... when you do NOT have a "lack of supply" in any area for the population and thus the extra money the rich are left with is only spent on lining their pockets OR to buy up smaller companies and thus generating even more money). So basically the joke is on you ... Thatcher isnt dead, she reincarnated as a woman who likes shoes ... lots of them.
Thanks for re-sharing this. I missed it on Aunty, and it had me in stitches with laughter. I'm not sure how Charlie manages to make so fscked up a world funny by being so dry, but I love to watch him at it. "You can't fsck her she's a rectangle." lmao
As an american by birth but earthling by default i d like to say that charlie brooker is dashed jolly splendiferous! this particular summary of the year's happenings is quite hilarious and i thank you kindly for your efforts in sharing these videos! doug stanhope is also always splendid in his scattered appearances. cheers from san diego!
Plan A) level New York for world peace Plan B) install Redford as president for life Plan C) fart in a trial held by your own slaves Plan D) marry Max Irons Europa really didn't do Adrian's brain any favours
The comment about staring through the words making them appear as "some sort of blurred lines" had me roaring. The writing team behind this show is amazing. Can't wait for a revised 2020 Wipe in January of 2021. The early Anti Viral Wipe we got was amazing.
I for one never understood the upset over horsemeat. If you eat it and you liked it what's it matter if it came from a horse. Meat is meat and meat is good. If it's good meat it's good food, get the fuck over it son.
Problem there is, what did you pay for? I mean, if you buy a burger, are you really going into it with a clear and exact decision on what specific meat you're going to be chowing down on in a burger? Why's burgers having horsemeat in them a concern. At all.
Captain Princess The problem with the horsemeat scandal was that Iceland/Tesco/etc were potentially falsely advertising their products. by saying it had beef in their when it might have a chance of having horse in it. For the consumer, we really didn't have much to worry about since horsemeat is edible. For the companies, it could have resulted in fines or lawsuits.
Captain Princess The main problem was that horses often don't have a passport, like cows do. In this passport, the drugs and antibiotics used on the animal are documented. Without this document, nobody would know what was inside their food, so people didn't want to eat the potentially dangerous horse meat. Then again, most people just went saying how awful it was to eat horse, because everyone was saying so without a real argumentation behind it.
Well yeah but horse meat it's cheaper it's legal over here (México) at least I think it is... but they tell you what it is and sell it to you at a cheaper price
Charlie Brooker's 2019 Wipe items are: January - After they won the 2017-18 SMTV Live World Cup, Wales did the Samba February - The 2019 SMTV Live World Cup takes place with Wales winning the first round against Brazil March - The second round of the SMTV Live World Cup takes place with Wales winning on a blowout against Brazil April - The third and fourth rounds of the SMTV Live World Cup take place with Wales winning the first of three knockout rounds against Brazil May - The fifth round of the SMTV Live World Cup takes place with Wales winning the second of three knockout rounds against Brazil June - The sixth round of the SMTV Live World Cup takes place with Wales winning the third of three knockout rounds against Brazil July - The SMTV Live World Cup Final takes place with Wales winning against Brazil with a victory of 5 - 2 August - ITV's lineup changes for the first time September - Strictly Come Dancing promote their seventeenth series October - The SMTV Awards starts off with a big Samba group performance November - ITV's Your Face Sounds Familiar returns to our screens for the first time December - The third British Snowboarding Championships gets underway
Also that guy who held the paper instead of the Apple product, that was probably his excuse for not wanting to blatantly advertise on the news and just stuck with it. Kudos to him.
Love the way Charlie Brooker is so acidic yet still manages to present the correct emotive tone for very serious subjects and highlights how badly the media handle the same subjects. And I see they toned down stanhopes insulting of our culture to instead mock people in general. He was never particularly funny but at least now he is tolerable. And I liked how commited he was to the idea of raising money for the atheist, regardless of his motivations :p

I normally find Charlie a little over the top but in this he never gets his excitement level above a 5 and I find myslef laughing along with his little jokes rather than getting tired of his rather lengthy rants
I actually prefer his article when he was still working in the old defunct PC Zone magazine. Used to be my favourite reviewer and cartoonist in that mag.
Gosh so much Nostalgia has just come back. Bongo-Bongo Land, Horse Meat Scandal, Hare and the Bear, and all the freaking politics that at the time seemed so scary but now just seem irrelevant. I remember thinking in 2013 that the world was any moment from destroying itself, how naive I was. I say that but when I look back six years from now to 2019 I’ll probably feel the same way.
i was just gonna watch a minute of this but couldn't turn it off. charlie brooker is awesome.
Are you familiar with his other work?
Yeah I kind of discovered him recently when reading his columns in the Guardian.. they always cracked me up, so thought I'd check out his other stuff.

Is it just me, or is Jeremy Irons REALLY pondering the benefits of marrying his son?
Must have been an awkward Christmas for the Irons' family this year.
Did this inspire the Family Guy episode where Peter Griffin intended to marry Chris?
To be fair, his son is fit.
Update 5 years later- he actually did end up marrying his son.
Just watch Danny champion of the world
its really something to watch each of these in order and watch each year start with 'more escalation/chaos than last year' and then think about where we are in 2020

No, no, we all speak like that in jolly Olde England, don't you know, what!
I don't doubt you speak English, I was referring to your use of vocabulary in 2014.
The way Charlie keeps going on about how technology is taking over... he should write a TV series about that.
Brooker you are a legend. Why cant more people have the same world view.
It's December 2019 and that Jeremy Irons bit still makes me laugh out loud. Ozymandias indeed.
