I don't know whether I prefer the podcast because it's longer, or the RUclips version because you can see the reactions!
U might want to tell Lee upfront that its not a good idea idea for his wife to do some naked ironing when ur interviewing him 😉
Thanks for this Rob. Looking forward to see the three of you on your next year. Keep us posted on venues and dates please.
@@garethadams5580 Right?!

Gotta do david mitchell now 😂😂
Definitely
Absolutely
Otherwise it would be a blow to him. He would be very hurt and very bruised lol
@@levy3946 It would be one of the most psychologically damaging thought experiments he's ever gone through
@@joshqim3110 hahahahah exactly
WILTY is the funniest thing on tv. These two plus David are the dream team of comedy.
A great three way... like Clarkson,May,Hammond... It just works.
That and Qi
@@JasonEyermann and 8 out of 10 cats (despite the silly name referencing an animal i dont much like its a great show) nothing on wilty though, that show is in its own league of entertainment. qi is great too.
@@socks2441 Strange, I’ve never found 8 out of 10 cats funny. I watched a couple of episodes in the past and thought nope, not for me and never watched again.
@@JasonEyermann fair enough. its not nearly as good as wilty, and it does have a lot of unfunny moments. i personally dont find jimmy car that funney either. it is enjoyable to try and do the quiz stuff yourself sometimes though. trying to do the maths, or find the word etc.
"The irony being I don't know what to say" -- that floored me hahaha I sure would like a long form version (podcast?) of this along with David !
This is already a podcast, the full 53 minute version is on Spotify. But yeah would love a Rob, Lee and David podcast.

@@manavsridharan3811 Oh ! Thanks I hadn't realized !
Nobody else would be quick enough to reply that way. Irony on irony.
@@RobBrydon Wow, how am I just finding out about this!?
Ok. My wife and I found WILTY on Prime video (here in the US) last year during lockdown. Let me say with sincerity that we credit WILTY as getting through the pandemic. These two gents (and the great David Mitchell) have struck gold with WILTY. What a great interview and hang. Most Americans have no earthly idea what comedy is. Cheers
You should check out Lee Mack's comedy series "Not Going Out"
Oh, lucky you! I'm having to scrounge RUclips for this series (in India).
Kevin, I hope you’ve watched enough episodes to catch Bob Mortimer. Be on the look out for “theft and shrubbery”, “I’ve popped an egg in there for you”, and “the cockroach king” (among many others)
@@cjeff3549 We are also huge Bob Mortimer fans. He is the king of the WILTY bluff. Also really enjoy his Taskmaster work. In America we seem to do bad rip offs of great British comedy. At our house we prefer the real thing if we can get it.
I whole-heartedly agree about British comedy being so much better than here in the USA.
Some other things to amuse and bemuse you from youTube (hundreds of hours of British joy):
-8 Out Of 10 Cats.
-8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown (love, love, love this one).
-Big Fat Quiz of (whatever year).
-Big Fat Quiz of Everything.
-The Sketch Show.
-QI (Quite Interesting)
-Smack The Pony.
Watching WILTY and Not Going Out got me through some tough times when I was a student alone in a new country with no friends or acquaintances. 13 years later I'm in a far better place in my life, but still watching these shows now give me a sense of comfort and joy that very few things in life can. Thank you Rob and Lee for your amazing work.
I know that feeling too well.. WILTY, Frasier, Are You Being Served, Fawlty Towers and other things that give me comfort in solitude in a different country. So it got through me some rough times..
The same thing has happened with great British comedy during Covid-19, just on a bigger scale. It's great medicine for whatever ails you.
Watching this right now while working abroad because for some reason British comedy gives me comfort (I've never been to the UK)
Same here. Being able to laugh despite everything can really help sometimes.
Red dwarf for me! 😎😎😎
Somehow he instantly came up with a witty thing to say by saying he had nothing. He proved rob's point by proving it wrong. This man is inhumanly quick.
I was in hospital for over 2 years and i would spend my nights listening to WILTY not going out then just going through robs lees and davids works! I love you guys really helped me through dark dark times ❤️.
Rob opens by trying to praise Lee and Lee opens by immediately criticizing Rob. 😂
gotta love that Lee has a Joker poster
And his criticisms weren't even valid😂
Why wasn’t this a 3hr podcast?! Let’s go boys! I’m all in.
They should have a weekly podcast with Rob, Lee and David!! Or what about a WILTY behind-the-scenes show in the same style as David Tennant and Charlie Sheen's Staged!!

WILTY got me through 5 years of law school and now UPSC preparation. Any Indian knows what a back breaking experience that is. Your show quite literally was a pick-me-up whenever I was down in the dumps, and thank you so much for that. It's so awesome how your work touches people's lives in so many different ways
14:44 "are you gonna come out of the box now?"
can we just appreciate Lee Mack referencing little man in a box before those super kind comments about Brydon?! love it, love them
Hi Rob, I just wanted to thank you for the amazing work you do on WILTY. You, David and Lee have been one of the few reasons to laugh and smile last year. Greetings from the Czech Republic!
Yes I agree too! Love from... well, England. I'm not very interesting.
I also send greetings from CZ
Count me in too.
Love that show .
Best wishes from Australia.
Agreed, as well! 🍻 Cheers & thanks from America. It's awe-inspiring to see how globally WILTY's influence has reached.
I agree! Watching from Canada!
Why did the opening give me a wholesome feeling of joy?
Many superlative introductions go over the top, but damn, Lee really is lightning fast. What a unique mind. Great dynamic with Rob too, they really bring out the best in each other in talks like these.
I just want to say that WILTY is such a big part of my life and have lightened my being in its darkest moments
Rob and Lee, I can't tell you how many times you and David have helped to pull me up out of some black holes. It's been a hell of a couple of years.
So Thank You All from the U.S.
I started watching WILTY with you as the host. I went back later and watched with Angus, and it wasn't near as good. Not denigrating Angus, but you three create this magic that isn't definable. My favorite moments are when you three interact as you did when Lee was "invited to the royal wedding."
I can’t believe Rob was so insecure about that episode of WILTY that he did as a guest! I always thought it was obvious why they booked him as the host after that because he could come back at Lee!
What happen to angus
@@MisterSolitude He wasn't a good fit for the show. WILTY became a wholesome family friendly panel show with Rob at the helm, whereas if you watch some of those early episodes with Angus, it's a lot cruder. Not a criticism of Angus, that's his style, but it didn't work here.
@@MisterSolitude He lives on a remote farm in Market Deayton..
This is by far the best panel show I have ever seen.
Rob, you're a fantastic host and your 2 boys really make us laugh.
Lee Mack is incredible and I only watched his " wok around the clock " again last night for the millionth time.
No kidding. Would not have been the same without Brydon. Just incredible chemistry.
I love the random full minute of lee trying to convince rob that it’s pronounced “YouChube”
Youtooob - haha - little provincial Welshy trying to sound like a yank
Lee Mack has a Joker poster. It's confirmed, he's part of society.
I think it's like, cause tours aren't going, the joke is "Joker coming soon"
Huh?
He said on the Adam Buxton podcast that it's because he loved the movie Joker
No. He's doing it from a house he's just broken in to.
Came to see Brydon, Mack and Mitchell in Cardiff in 2019 and it was absolutely brilliant! Lee & David funny as ever, but have to say what an amazing showman Rob is! Keep it up guys
That's the plan!
I saw that too. I mainly went for Lee, if I'm honest, as he's in my top 3 comedians of all time (only preceded by Bob Mortimer and Sean Lock, so no disrespect there). He seemed a bit nervous on the night though. Rob and David were in their element though and we had a great night. My kids had no clue who I was going to see until I mentioned Uncle Bryn, then they were impressed 😄
I saw rob on tour last year and he was amazing, very entertaining 😜
Thank you for this, and huge thank you for WILTY, which actually IS the funniest thing on television.
And yes, I've never seen anybody so consistently quick-witted as Lee Mack. Absolute gold.
"My show, Not Going Out, is now the longest-running sitcom in UK history, gaining the mantle when we beat Peep Show." future wilty card man
I watch NGO regularly in the evenings.. It is without question one of the best comedy's I have ever seen in my life! Thank you Lee Mack and the cast.
Thought that was last of the summer wine
Is only fools not classed as a sitcom? I never really found it funny.. but it went on for 22+ years
@@billybollockhead5628 that was mainly just Christmas episodes for the last few years though.
Rob doesn't write them though.. lol he just hosts!
Lee mack live was the funniest comedian I have ever seen. Thank heavens for the interval. I was laughing so hard at joke after joke after joke, I honestly thought I was going to die.
I watch WILTY over and over as I drive my truck around the eastern side of Australia.
In the last 4 days I've travelled 2000km and will do a further 3000 before arriving home in 4 days time.
I was amazed when I went to England how much there is to see by hardly going anywhere!
😯👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ha, I live on the east coast of Australia, and I genuinely like the idea there's some guy in a truck on the highway a kilometre or so away, watching WILTY.
Watching while driving?
At its widest the United Kingdom is 300 miles (500 km) across. From the northern tip of Scotland to the southern coast of England, it is about 600 miles (1,000 km). No part is more than 75 miles (120 km) from the sea.
@@Isleofskye What's that got to do with it???
That was wonderful, I love both of your sense of humour , guaranteed belly laughing until I can not hardly breath sometimes . You are all brilliant at WILTY. Thank you very much for years of wonderful entertainment 😊👏👏👏
Absolutely love Lee Mack , impeccable comedy timing 🤣
Watching Would I Lie To You, I can’t watch it unless Rob is the MC. Love the guy. Love the Lee and Mitchell give and take!
I couldn't thank you enough for this, as an American I can only see snippits of WILTY on youtube and have learned that the combination of Rob, Lee, and David are the most unbeatable comedy team one could ask for. I can only hope one day your shows air in America. I did get to see all of Not Going Out and am a big fan.
There are full episodes on YT.
@@elinicoritale6384 Thank you.
Finally you’ve got the utterly wonderful, drop dead gorgeous Lee Mack on! 🎉😍What a brilliantly warm and funny interview. It’s why WILTY is such a success. Loved the longer version on Spotify too.
Lee mack is a comedy genius, not going out is just brilliant and so funny.
I think Lee is the only funny one on there until Toby came
I’m fascinated that Rob thinks so little of his first appearance on WILTY. I’ve always thought it was exceptional.
I think he knows it was borderline. It was funny but verging on uncomfortable in terms of its aggressiveness, which meant as comedy, could be misconstrued.
I think it's way more likely that he got offered o be the host for the next series on the spot and that's why he didn't go back as a guest.
Always felt the magic of WILTY centers on the relationship between Rob, David and Lee, in that they seem to very much enjoy each others company and input in to the show. If I had one suggestion it might be to have Miles Jupp on a little more - with his laughter you hardly need an audience.
He's funny an all
So he's perfect for COVID times then. A full panel, an empty theatre, and just Miles Jupp losing his mind laughing in the audience
This was great, I can imagine the chaos of a three way interview with David Mitchell involved😂
A very entertaining episode!
The irony of "The irony being I don't know what to say" being the best thing to say.
When are the three of you touring together? I would fly over from NY to see it. Binging 14 seasons of WILTY got me through the pandemic. The three of you are magic together.
Two of the fabulous three amigos. The definition of British wit.
I love love " WILTY "and I love "" NOT GOING OUT"" I hope they both keep bringing in new seasons cause it's so much fun to watch. Xoxo
Lee Mack is soooooo funnnnyyyyy and Rob and David just make each other better.
the best show on tv by a country mile Wilty. Every single episode has me in stitches! You, Lee and David Michelle are rediculous together!
They are a great team , and there is obvious affection between them.
Speaking as a Welshman, Robs pronunciation is perfect. There’s no ‘ch’ in Tube. Love Lee too by the way, bloody brilliant.
Would loooooove to see the show tour Australia, such a great show, always a big laugh. And you're right Rob, Lee's wit is lighteningly fast.
What a pair of legends
I just want to see Lee Mack and Bob Mortimer in something together, anything.
A tour around the world like the League Of Their Own guys and Gordon, Geno and Fred
@@jakeriese4862 yes!
Imagine Bob and Claudia having a travel or a strange jobs show or something like that. I think the two of them compliment each others' outrageous personalities perfectly.
Enjoyed this soooo much as I scoffed down my Indomie ramen. you two are absolutely gems! I still haven't converted my husband to british comedy (and comedians).
I had a weird summer… with Lee Mack as my nurse.
He was very kind and surprisingly fluent in Norwegian.
But I did try to tear his nuts off in the end.
About one minute in I'm already laughing and the interview ended with such a strong note. Thanks for all the work you've done Rob and hope you do grab the future :D
Two of the three funniest guys on TV - just add Sean Lock and I’ll die laughing
And Bob Mortimer!
And James Acaster
@@stofferrussell " we do beg your pardon"
@@Error-gc1rr but we are un your garden
RIP Sean
Lee Mack is SO funny!!! Please have him on again. 👌🏼👍🏼
This should have been at least an hour long! Love the pair of you.
There's a longer podcast version.
That's mad that Rob thought he underperformed on his first appearance of Wilty.. I've seen a literal highlight reel of his performance cause it was that good, thus got the host job!
I love that Lee altered the box gag to putting a kid in the box, wheeling it off and saying 'I DID say no kids...' - its the perfect joke and has had me giggling for years.
It is, wilty is indeed terrific!! So much joy and pure entertainment by you lot.... made many a difficult days seem easy with the humour you provided. Lots of love and respect, and stay the same !!
Glad you enjoyed it!
What I love the most about this is that Rob got Lee into meditation. Beautiful friendship!
I love Lee Mack above any other. But I also just love Rob.
I'm from the US and WILTY is my favorite show! I had to subscribe in hopes of finding the David Mitchell interview
Love the show, I have watched ever series available several times wish there were more.
It's always a great pleasure to see you guys together! Even though I have never met either of you in person, I always feel as though I am enjoying time with extended family whenever I watch you on screen. Thank you for all that you do!
🙂
Thank you. Nice to see you guys in a different format.
I enjoyed the low key format. Must go to the Spotify link now.
I want WILTY's cast on Conan's podcast
YES! I feel like Conan would mesh well with British comedians as his brand of humour is also self deprecating
I love Lee Mack. Back in the 90s/early 2000s, I thought he was so-so. But over the recent years he's just got better and better. I like 'Not going out', but I prefer his live, off the cuff appearances. Rob is right; Lee does have a remarkably quick mind. I really would like to see him do stand up live sometime in the near future.
Lee is so fucking cockney it hurts. Outstanding stand up act. Lee and the great Sean Lock. Timing wise I'd say Lee is the only person to come close to, if not as quick as, Frank Skinner. His Eric Morecambe influence is clear to see. There's comedians and there's special. Lee is spesh.
I think you know who we want next.
Madagascan President Andry Rajoelina?
We used to make Steel!!!
@@Galatzo there is no point, we are whiling away our finite time before the grave!
Oh yes! The man who puts turds in the letterboxes of museums that he doesn’t like! And for the record, he did NOT burn down the Cutty Sark. And he hates the pencil museum. He doesn’t dance. He only has 2 albums in his music collection. He’s brilliant. He’s sexy. It’s the one and only DAVID MITCHELL!!!
@@sstills951 For what?
Best chuckle brothers ! Thanks for the chuckles!
Love you guys, thank you for helping to keep me sane during Covid. Couldn't have done it without some humor.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I have been waiting for this ever since Rob started his channel. Thank you 💖💖💖
WILTY was still a very good programme when Angus hosted it, but it went to another level when Rob took over
I didnt like Angus hosting it too much.. lol
Rob seemed to bring energy to WILTY and has great chemistry with David and Lee.
Angus was stilted and too keen for the focus.
Love Lee Mack. He keeps me going with a smile. Thank God I can get all this on RUclips I’m in the USA 🇺🇸
Thank you so much for this Rob!
This needs to be a 3 way zoom podcast/chat with David Mitchell for about 3 hours. Top trending stuff.
I heard rumous that Not Going Out was ending this year so SO happy to hear that they are committed till 2023!!!! LOVE it hope it goes on forever lol! It is still as good as it was when it first started. Also so weird to hear that Rob thought his performance as a panelist on WILTY was bad - he was actually one of the best! I loved him going up against Gabby Logan haha.
Sorry but Not Going Out is nowhere near as good as it used to be with Tim Vine and Katy Wix
@k c I love Hugh Dennis, tbh he’s the only reason I still watch the show.
It was great until they got together and.it.turned crap
Really laughed hard when he told the smallest theater story
Good avatar.
@@MisterAppleEsq Yours is also very nice, I have to say
Always love the chats.... This is certainly a highlight! Definitely in for the Lee Mack channel too!
Lots of love, gratitude and respect for your hard work, from Salt Lake City, Utah
Lee McKillop DEFINITELY has the quickest mind now that Robin Williams has passed.
Lee Mack is the Best!!
Brilliant as always! Thanks Rob!
Many thanks for bringing the two of you, great talents, to us.
Lee Mack reminds me of a facilities manager, those guys have the quickest minds !
0:20 remember Rolling Subs? Or when someone asked him how long they were together during the trampoline episode and he's like "we were up and down through the years" LOL! Or what about those keys! I just love British humour!
This is the first of these i've come accross, i'm glad it was with Lee, the two of you have a great rapport on WILTY. i'll check out others in this series.
I’ve watched about 5 episodes and they’re great!
Not going out...my favourite ever!
Loved this episode! You’re great together and I look forward to the tour 💫
REALLY GREAT INTERVIEW! Thanks guys!
Thank you so much for all the great moments on WILTY ❤❤
Two legends having a causal conversation. Brilliant!
Two of my favorite funny Brits!
just happened to find WILTY on youtube only this year , wish I had found this show years ago. Such a riot. THis is my favorite show!
Lovely video of you both being nice to each other with no loss to the comedy content.
WILTY has made me belly laugh when nothing else does. Thank you.
Thank you for the lesson in pronounciation. Greetings from Finland! Love WILTY😍
Great interview! And Not Going Out is my favorite show for sure, followed (very) closely by WILTY. Thanks Rob, lovely to see both you and Lee in a casual conversation.
Great interview. Love these two.
Been waiting for this!!!
The Sketch Show was the first show that got me into sketch shows
Love love love these guys! Hilarious as always!!
Rob, you were amazing as a panelist on WILTY, one of the best ever
Just found this channel...delighted!
the chemistry between these two is joy to watch.
4:25 Rob having that extra side angle footage is sending me 😂
