Bob Mortimer is the best guest by a long way in my opinion, there are some great videos on RUclips of his appearances edited together, I've literally cried with laughter at him on that show.
The phrase "a comedian's comedian" is PERFECT for Bob Mortimer. He seems to always be the funniest person in the room on whatever show he's on... He had Greg, Alex and contestants in absolute stitches on Taskmaster !

WILTY is a fantastic example of why the people involved matter. The concept is so simple that it feels like there’s no way it can keep going for more than a couple of series, but the energy of Rob, David and Lee just fits so perfectly together that it never gets old.
yeah for stuff like comedy panel shows formats are secondary to the characters on stage, people want to watch the people and laugh at their jokes not watch a silly quiz show. but i feel like actual format and content are less important than ever now with low effort content creators getting views unimaginable in traditional television two decades ago, its more about the personalities than their actual content. i'm curious to see in what way entertainment evolves in the next few decades.
So true. We now have an Australian version and I only managed to watch one episode. I kept recording and seeing who was on but there was never anyone worth watching. Mind you, doesn't help that I can't stand the host.
I know it's a cliché but Rob Brydon seems so nice and down to earth here. He's never seemed like the most glamorous celebrity, but it's interesting to be reminded that he's just an ordinary guy with tastes and interests like the rest of us. I guess that's part of the strength of a podcast like this.
"I'm not fishing for compliments, I know it's good" strikes me as actually one of the realest comments, too. Like, he's not really super-boasting, but he's also not doing that playing-at-being-shy thing that some celebs do. He's got a product he's proud of, basically.
A lot of comedians get hyper-competitive with each other. Part of the genius of WILTY, I think, is that Rob, Dave, Lee & their guests just seem to really enjoy & appreciate each other. The comedy is collaborative, not competitive, and that’s a genuinely beautiful thing, IMO. ❤️
@@tomdavies9004 As he said, he's done his own show a lot. It can be tough to keep it fresh. I used to teach, and the more times you deliver a lesson the harder it is to maintain interest. I had to keep reminding myself that it might have been the 10th time I taught it, but it was the first time these particular students were present.
I swear that Bob is just trying to break David's brain. David is continuously trying to find logic in a mind that just doesn't work that way and it's funny as hell.
I didn’t know of James acaster a year ago and now I get stoked to see him in anything, even just off the cuff interviews and panel shows, he just seems so effortlessly funny and original

I think the reason it works so well without comedians is because it allows David, Lee and Rob to take centre stage more and they work brilliantly together
Agreed as that is what the ego of comedians love though they can not openly admit it. We will never know but if someone razor-sharp like Lee, such as The Late Bob Monkhouse(he of the million jokes) came on, he could steal the show and they would not want that. In real life most comedians rarely laugh like laypeople as it is a Business to them and top writers/comedians can look at a page of material and not laugh once and say, genuinely, "that was good, we will use that"..
You're right and the resident comedians will feel threatened by another funny man stealing their thunder. It's the way of Show Business and I have seen that on an Amateur level when my m8, who was in a group after the gig was funnier than the hired comedian who walked off in a sulk :)
The best thing that happened to WILTY was the change in host and presentation from the almost serious dour mannerisms of Angus Deaton to the bright and optimistic charm of Rob Brydon took the show from an okay time killer to a show I never miss
If you haven't seen the one with Su Pollard in, it's well worth looking up. You wouldn't have predicted Su Pollard would be the person to make Lee look silly....
People talking a lot about the names dropped here, and I mostly agree with all of it, but can I just reiterate how amazing Rob's voice is? He just talks in this smooth tone with every word perfectly articulated and enunciated, a genuine pleasure just to listen to.
I’m from Amsterdam, The Netherlands and I can only watch WILTY on RUclips. But ii is absolutely my favorite show. Rob is the perfect host with his impressions. Lee Mack is amazingly quick. David Mitchell is so funny en eloquent. And most guests are amazing. Bob Mortimer. I love his imagination. Also, the writers, I imagine they make up those lies. Hilarious. And lovely Miranda. They bring me so much joy. Love to everybody from a grateful Dutch girl.

I can see what Rob said about Lee. He never stops acting funny and telling jokes. He's just a delight as a person. Trying to make you laugh at any chance. I love how Tara, Lee's wife, still laughed a lot at his jokes eventhough she's probably the person who he spent most of his time with (as told by Emily Dean in her podcast). I love all his NGO and evenmore when he's playing a married man and a father. The earlier series were funny but I find them a bit predictable (mostly because I've heard the jokes since they're quite old now and been retold a lot). Also, his podcast with his mate on Buddhism is brilliant. Unfortunately he's on hiatus now although he promised to record a new episode this February. Why am I talking about Lee when this is an interview on Rob.
Lee reminds me a bit of Robin Williams, in the sense that both of them were/ are "on" 100% of the time, extremely quick witted, and genuinely seem/ed like great people.
I think he was a great replacement for Angus Deyton, the show improved a lot when moved from late night with swearing and more risque stories to prime time with Rob.
Agreed, Lee Mack is on a different level to everyone else - he does stand up and there are probably others who do it better, they're funny, but lots of practice and feeling out crowds to nail the routine down, Lee Mack does it on the fly on shows like this. The joke he made in response to Deborah Meaden having her house exercised was just genius.
Definitely agree. Like they said, I often find myself thinking "No bloody way he just came up with this. HAS to be edited/scripted!!" but happy to believe Rob on this one.
My favourites on the show are, Lee Mack, David Mitchell, Rob Bryden, Henning Wehn, bob Mortimer, Claudia Winkleman, Greg Davis, Jason Manford and once only on there, Ray Winstone. The one complaint I have about this show, is that it should be on for an hour.
I came up with a rule of thumb regarding Greg Davies and Bob Mortimer. The more mental their stories sound, the more likely they are to be true. If Bob said "I once owned a hippo" I'd be thinking "I wonder where he kept it?" before I'd ever consider it to be a lie.

So I was talking to my grandmum about my favourite comedians and happened to mention Lee Mack. She genuinely went, "oh, the bloke who owns the word STEADINGS?" yes granny, yes.
James and Bob are just ludicrously good partly because they're very funny but partly because they both just have so many absolutely ridiculous true stories from their past. Interesting that shout out to the non-comedians
The only bad thing about when Acaster is on is that I've listened to the "scrapes" compilation to go to sleep to for years lol so I knew the answer before he'd read the card.
Im danish and i love the show! I never watch panel shows but this is one of my favorite shows! I prefer to not know much if anything about the guests outside the show. To me they are just part of WILTY. I knew and watch Lee's and Mitchells stuff before the show and love that too.
Happy to hear Rob comparing Richard Osman to Lee Mack. Lee Mack has done the stand up circuit, practicing jokes and witty comebacks for years before starting on TV. Richard hasn't and can keep up with Lee when it comes to quips. It's quite impressive.
I think it's pretty incredible how David Mitchell and Lee Mack have such radically different styles and are still comedic equals. This was a small excerpt, I bet he was mentioned at another time.

Other great guest not mentioned is henning Wehn. Also Kevin bridges horse story is iconic, and love Rory Reid’s cat story and Chris McCausland’s neighbour story.
I'm belgian and I discovered WILTY on YT only 6 or 7 months ago and I'm so much happier.🙂 My absolute favorites are David Mitchell and Bob Mortimer but I love Rob and Lee too (and many others😊).
Absolutely. Lee Mack's quick wit is absolutely on another plane. i started watching the show for David and ended up loving Lee the most. And Rob completed the trio. Honestly, there will never a show like Wilty nor such a cast like Lee, David & Rob.
A bit of constructive criticism, Rob's mic seems to be a good bit lower than the other 2. I have my volume all the way up and the hosts are coming in loud and clear, but I'm struggling to hear Rob over them.
I came here to say this too. Enjoyed the interview, but the volumes are mismatched and also very dynamic, so should have some compression to even things out a bit. If you check things on a meter you can see there's even a large difference between Rob's quiet and loud bits!

Who has been your favourite guest from the show - comedian or non comedian? 🇳🇺
The ultimate line up would be Henning Wehn and James Acaster on David Mitchell’s team, and Bob Mortimer and Greg Davis on Lee Macks team.
Bob Mortimer for me is the greatest on the show - certainly my favourite.
Bob Mortimer is the best guest by a long way in my opinion, there are some great videos on RUclips of his appearances edited together, I've literally cried with laughter at him on that show.
For a non-comedian, Lilly Allen was surprisingly good.

Honestly bob mortimer is one of the funniest guys out there. Just naturally funny

I feel like his mind goes so fast the rest of us must seem like we're moving in slow motion to him.
His stage show is brill too.
Often sponteneity & written don't
go together.
His sitcom is awful though (I think he's a very funny man)
@@finkijlua4851 reported
the only problem with lee is he drags the joke on and on and on until it becomes unfunny.

thats one of my legendary wilty stories ive never laughed more at a story the first time i heard it
Its the storytelling thats so brilliant! Watched it multiple times! 😂

Bob Mortimer and James acaster where probably my favourites on would I lie to you, imagine having either of them two on happy hour.
I love Claudia Winkleman too🥰
@@aislingbolton793 yeah, I realy diddnt expect her to be that funny c
Oh for me Bob is fantastic, theft and shrubbery was a weird story and after watching episodes with him I just believe all stories are true.
I didn’t know of James acaster a year ago and now I get stoked to see him in anything, even just off the cuff interviews and panel shows, he just seems so effortlessly funny and original
Watch his standup, I think his technique/form is his biggest strength. It’s insanely good.
Got a good podcast about peoples dream meals called off menu if you haven’t heard of it before
@@domlloyd9224 ah I listened to that recently, the episodes with Ramrsh Ranganathan and Louis Theroux, very very funny
if you havent seen his standup series repertoire on netflix i highly recommend! absolutely genius
Has he always done this Rodney Trotter rip off character though? It’s a good dopey impression but grates after a bit
My favourite person was Henning Wehn, all of his stories are always unbelievable and somehow end up being true 😂
In the mid 90's...

Yeh completely agree, doesn't get the recogintion he deserves some times
@Jon Hesson think he’s talking about main stream notoriety
@Jon Hesson when I say mainstream i am referring to someone that is a household name. He atleast should be on jimmy carrs level of notoriety

It's the classic balance of the funny men (the captains and host) vs the straight man of the guest. Too many comedians spoil the broth.
You're right and the resident comedians will feel threatened by another funny man stealing their thunder.
It's the way of Show Business and I have seen that on an Amateur level when my m8, who was in a group after the gig was funnier than the hired comedian who walked off in a sulk :)
What makes Bob's stories even more funny is David Mitchell's reaction to them, getting more and more exasperated 😂
Its the names of his childhood friends for me xD
David has the best and funniest reaction out of anyone
Kevin Bridges buying a horse in Bulgaria, Henning Wehn just being himself and Bob Mortimer all on the same show would be a dream.
The best thing that happened to WILTY was the change in host and presentation from the almost serious dour mannerisms of Angus Deaton to the bright and optimistic charm of Rob Brydon took the show from an okay time killer to a show I never miss
Victoria Coren Mitchell is a fav of mine having David’s wife on is just so fun and her back and forth with David and Lee is always such a treat
I’m so glad he brought up Lee’s ability to think fast. I’ve never seen anyone think as fast as he does
Rob is spot on about Lee Mack! No one has a quicker response than he and it’s incredible to watch!
If you haven't seen the one with Su Pollard in, it's well worth looking up. You wouldn't have predicted Su Pollard would be the person to make Lee look silly....
"Sergeant Bytheway"? Holy shit that had me laughing for minutes. And that's just a little one off comment for Lee 😅
He didn't get a mention, but I've always enjoyed Miles Jupp on the show.
Would I Lie to You is one of those shows that you can watch a few more times over the years and still end up ROTFL...again. Brilliant.
People talking a lot about the names dropped here, and I mostly agree with all of it, but can I just reiterate how amazing Rob's voice is? He just talks in this smooth tone with every word perfectly articulated and enunciated, a genuine pleasure just to listen to.
David Mitchell always amazes me with his humour but Lee Mack is so special with his ability to make everything whimsical at a lightning speed.
WILTY is my favourite comedy show and has been for a long time now. Great to see him interviewed here.
Would I lie to you is such an amazing show. Rob, Lee and David are fantastic every episode.
I don't know if I've ever laughed harder at WILTY than when Reg Hunter tried to convince everybody that the D in his name stood for delicious.
I’m from Amsterdam, The Netherlands and I can only watch WILTY on RUclips. But ii is absolutely my favorite show. Rob is the perfect host with his impressions. Lee Mack is amazingly quick.

i don’t think you understand, we’re talking about an incredibly sick owl here
Get Bob Mortimer on, the amount of stories that legend has got 😂
I swear his Welsh accent is stronger here than when he's on telly
Agreed. Probably because it's a casual conversation and he's talking softly.
Lee Mack is something else. His wit seems to be almost reflexive, like a sneeze or something. He's a fucking god.
Big nasty deffo one of the best appearances

Could listen to Rob all day. Love this ❤
Bob mortimer is the goat has me crying everytime
I think he was a great replacement for Angus Deyton, the show improved a lot when moved from late night with swearing and more risque stories to prime time with Rob.
Big Narstie is extremely talented at WILTY, especially because of his yin-yang chemistry with David Mitchell.

yes granny, yes.
I think his Marion and Geoff series was fantastic. Very original and very funny.
Yeah, hugely underrated series
Lee mack is genuinely astoundingly quick on his feet. He's amazing.
Chris McCausland had me in stitches both times he was on.
Chris is genuinely up there with Lee for speed of mind. He's bloody brilliant.
Raj Bisram's magic trick was the funniest clip I have seen in a long long time 😂
Loooove WILTY. Everything Rob said is true, and a lot of great stuff wasn’t mentioned and it all makes a great show.
James acaster being 38 is mindblowing
He's just turned 37 so you're safe for now ;)
Like Rob I also think of James Acaster as a young comedian, and I'm... 38.
(James is 37 though.)
Kevin Bridges renting a horse was hilarious. He played that brilliantly.
Bob Mortimer.
Kevin Bridges.
Henning Wehn.
James Acaster / Miles Jupp
If we have these guests every week i’d watch it forever.
"You're the best female truck driver in the world" nearly killed Miles.

I've seen it being filmed, Lee mack really is that quick
James and Bob are just ludicrously good partly because they're very funny but partly because they both just have so many absolutely ridiculous true stories from their past. Interesting that shout out to the non-comedians
Bob Mortimers egg in the bath story is the best ever moment on this show.
Most guests are class, special mention to James Acaster though 😂
Bob Mortimer just tells the most ridiculous stories about his life, which for any else would be obviously a lie, but it is always true for Bob.
Kevin Bridges has had some amazing moments

The only bad thing about when Acaster is on is that I've listened to the "scrapes" compilation to go to sleep to for years lol so I knew the answer before he'd read the card.
Im danish and i love the show! I never watch panel shows but this is one of my favorite shows! I prefer to not know much if anything about the guests outside the show. To me they are just part of WILTY. I knew and watch Lee's and Mitchells stuff before the show and love that too.
Would love to see Lee Mack on the Happy Hour Podcast and do the fake would I lie to you game you do.
Rob, David & Lee are the best trio this side of Superman, Batman & Wonder Woman.
Happy to hear Rob comparing Richard Osman to Lee Mack. Lee Mack has done the stand up circuit, practicing jokes and witty comebacks for years before starting on TV. Richard hasn't and can keep up with Lee when it comes to quips. It's quite impressive.
0:30 "from that old TV show called Call My Bluff".
Depressing for David Mitchell that he doesn't get a mention here
I think it's pretty incredible how David Mitchell and Lee Mack have such radically different styles and are still comedic equals. This was a small excerpt, I bet he was mentioned at another time.
Bob Mortimer is the goat guest

Absolutely great interview loved it!
Other great guest not mentioned is henning Wehn. Also Kevin bridges horse story is iconic, and love Rory Reid’s cat story and Chris McCausland’s neighbour story.
But David Mitchell's interogatory style sets them off...
I'm belgian and I discovered WILTY on YT only 6 or 7 months ago and I'm so much happier.🙂
My absolute favorites are David Mitchell and Bob Mortimer but I love Rob and Lee too (and many others😊).
Bob mortimer and his mask story in Scotland 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The question at 4:22 makes Rob go super Welsh for a second
Love how Rob went from interviewER to interviewEE in the blink of an i😊
Greg Davies with the veeeggeatablleess story has to be my all time favourite and the cushooon is pretty close
I live in Las Vegas NV and I ADORE BRITISH COMEDY and DRAMAS TOO 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Bob mortimer, James Acaster, henning wehn as guests have always been amazing, but you have to love David and lee haha
Bobs stories that are true are always so weird thats what's funny.
If I had a son, I would want Bob Mortimer to name him.
James Acaster and his cabbage nemesis! Any Bob Mortimer episode.
"Lightening Lee Mack" always got something to say😂
Absolutely. Lee Mack's quick wit is absolutely on another plane. i started watching the show for David and ended up loving Lee the most. And Rob completed the trio. Honestly, there will never a show like Wilty nor such a cast like Lee, David & Rob.
The young blond Rich guy is also innocent funny😂
"Ann-Marie"
lee mack and james acaster are two of my favourite comedians they are both just so incredible at what they do
Charles dance and the chimpanzee for tea one was great. .
Great interview with Rob, I love him! Please invite Tim Key on the podcast. And Rob, please get Tim Key on WILTY?! 🙏
A bit of constructive criticism, Rob's mic seems to be a good bit lower than the other 2. I have my volume all the way up and the hosts are coming in loud and clear, but I'm struggling to hear Rob over them.
It’s because the hosts are wearing headphones. They’re much more aware of how their voice is being picked up in their microphones.
I came here to say this too. Enjoyed the interview, but the volumes are mismatched and also very dynamic, so should have some compression to even things out a bit. If you check things on a meter you can see there's even a large difference between Rob's quiet and loud bits!
Rhod Gilbert and James Acaster are some of my favorites
Rhod 🙏
I’m defo losing it here because he sounds way more Welsh than I remember lmao
