@@UncommonSense-wm5fd "Arthro" from jointed, as in "arthritis", but yes, under the pressure of performing on stage, it's fair enough forgetting "cephalopod".

No, it's Canada winning the World Cup! Canada has only qualified for the World Cup once. However, they automatically qualify for the 2026 Tournament, as they co-host with the US and Mexico.
Whose line is it anyway? UK was before the American version. Different host. Mock the Week was well known for its controversial jokes but now it's more of a comfort show.
"Whose Line is it Anyway?" was originally a Channel Four (UK) show that ran for ten series; and was then imported to the US. The show was created by Dan Patterson and Mark Leveson; who later created "Mock the Week."
If you havent watched it for a while how do you know wether its bad or not, its still good, and jumping the shark doesn't mean being on a long time it means when you reach for desperate and unfeasible input to keep the show going because you've run out of ideas. You stating they jumped the shark was actually you jumping the shark you had nothing original to add so you tried to sound funny by making a joke that wasn't relative to the subject. Think before you ink.
Oh really? I could have sworn I've seen comedians who appear on there for the first time then go on to appear on other programs. Would you care to try again, Mr Drama Queen?
Rhys James really was on Fire there, but the Whistle one took it. 😂
He was
It really didn't (His Lacrosse joke was better than the whistles too)
That bobslay joke was brilliant, as one expects from ABK
"Listen up, virgins. This is Robot Wars."
Even the host of Robot Wars loved it.
As did all 18 billion of the virgins.
I have a vague memory of visrtually the same joke being run on this show over a decade ago
Rhys' curse joke was amazing. It's funny they consider lacrosse a high brow sport given its origins.
well in a way it doesn't get much more highbrow than The Creator's Game
I love that Maisie is not only funny but finds the others' jokes hilarious as well!
Gunnar Gunnarsson has come a long way after his son got murdered
Well they weren’t that close.
I feel like Hugh Dennis would unironically make a really good sports commentator.
Rhys James has fast become my favourite UK comic.
Maisie Adam always gives me a flashback to the early punk days with her skin bird/Chelsea haircut. Tall and talented this Maisie Adam
She's in a bit of a dip 'though.
No, sorry she's FROM a dip. Pannal in fact.
i thought her haircut looked a lot like Lucy Wilde from Despicable Me films
This was a really good round. Nice job everyone👍🏾
Rhys gave me a laughing fit; it's the unexpected nature of of the "punchline"
ABK is back! Love his one-liners.
Happy Michaelmas
“What an exciting round of golf! The crowd’s going wild!”
Ellie's done it, 👋What a thrilling cricket match!👋
And here's Rhys James. No, I meant the Chelsea defender. Wait, this is Mock the Week? Well, this is a very different career path.
ABK’s lacrosse joke is very British. In Canada, lacrosse is actually the national sport ( No, not hockey) and tends to be a brutally rough game.
It's a brutally rough game in Britain too. And girls in posh schools play it. And boys in posh schools play rugby, and that's brutal, too.
@@rosiefay7283 No, you don’t have any idea how rough it gets here.
IIRC, lacrosse is Canada's official summer sport, while hockey is the official winter sport.
The beloved darts player passed away after being trampled by a bull. Apparently he had hit it's eye.
I did enjoy the Bob Slay
The whistle joke killed me
Best one yet!
AND ITS GOLD FOR IRELAND
*BUZZ*
Great stuff from the lot of them! 👍😂
I found all my whistles hahaha
I wanted Hugh to come on last and say okay virgins that's the end of robot wars but don't worry as whistle finding is coming on next.
Great jokes all around!!! 😆
We need more ABK
Squids are mollusks not arthropods, Ivo.
Curious. I heard it as 'Cephalopods'
Which is correct.

You're technically correct. The best kind of correct.

Frankie Boyle was good but he's kind of overrated.
Get over it, it's been years.

You know you could just say you have no sense of humour, and move along...
How to say ‘I have no sense of humour’ without saying I have no sense of humour?
Not really the best place to post this. You sound like a franking machine salesman at a philately conference...
omg that's the best analogy I've ever heard.
