Until this show all I knew about Shawaddywaddy (sp?) was as a running Hugh Dennis joke on Mock the Week. Didn't even realize they were a musical group until now.
During the second world war, so I read, there were youth protesters called zazous, who wore long, 'loud' coats, and otherwise copied British clothing, carrying umbrellas, and speaking English. For which they could be killed The French also faught in North Africa Against the Americans, English, and Free French. . . Not to mention the Gouniers ...
@@MajesticDemonLord Oh God. If it were in English, at least we could assume he has an assistant to handle it like most competent politicians. Instead, it probably all comes from his own head. I shudder to think.
@@@MajesticDemonLord Honestly asking, what is it that you like about him?? Is it that he keeps himself well polished like a "classic English gentleman"?? Or is there something else?? I don't really know much about him (except that he has very conservative views).
blaise marcc Theres nothing wrong with Paul, he's just got his hair brushed back (which doesn't really suit him) and he's playing a part. That's my estimation anyway! Actually he does look quite tired! And we're all getting older lol! (Mrs L)
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"
I'm pretty sure Paul is just doing it for the money, and Ian is only there from some honor code or contractual obligation. They're just never as invested any more...
I've been a fan of this show since the 90s...I was happy with guest presenters, but the past few years has been such a mixed bag...must this show pander to the sad wave of social-justice-pc crap that is flooding our streets? Nearly every week we have some lefty windbag dragging the comedy out by the scruff of its neck and shining a sad light of social fakery in its face. Ugh. Remember when Boris was host? Now those episodes were funny.
such a warm rapport between Tom and Paul :):):)
Thanks for posting.
Thx again thumbs up 👍
Well done, thank you from South Dakota, USA

Same here! XD
Didn't you get the joke?
Same here!
OH YES!!! Please!! Tom Allen for PM!!
Had never heard of Gary Lineker; he did a solid job of hosting
@Jonny Sevent FOOTBALL player.
American here, and I LOVE Gary Lineker! I'd be delighted if they made him permanent host, though I believe he's got a pretty decent job already.
Love the full version, thank you💙
Gary Lineker is a good presenter.
He also poos his pants.
@@kane4013 Aw! Give him a break! He's given so much, including a good-natured laugh after shitting himself on worldwide TV. He's awesome!
@@beenaplumber8379 All I remember is the poo. Sure, he’s done some good stuff. However….. poo.
@@kane4013not a credit to you.
Thx 4 the upload. Im in germany, so if not for you Id miss the show.
LOVE the full show - thank you so much
Tom Allen is just hilarious.
I implore anyone that hasn't already to watch the Gary Lineker interview with James O'Brien. In my humble opinion it is brilliant.
Ok, I will :)
Yay!! Thanks SO much!!
Thanks for your excellent uploads! April seems so far in the future...and there will be plenty to talk about!
Tom Allen is so adorable!!!
This is an awesome news show
is that Joe Wilkinson in the audience laughing? sounds like it lol
You can really hear it at 8:02, that was the first thing I thought of. "Joe?"
Peter Griffin's british cousin?
haha yes there was a very distinctive laugh or two this episode
Tom's shirt is Ian's tie.
I want the Tom Allen and Paul Merton podcast
ه
13:05 - 14:20 - The banter between Tom and Paul was pure brilliance.
I think Gary Lineker is the cat's meow!
He is 1 handsome guy! And witty.
Well done Gary xxx
why are you sending him kisses
Concessions to England are hardly comparable to conceding one’s own people. No one wants to give in to Britain.
Can we have a show where Tom Allen just tells Paul Merton the news?
Reminds me of that RUclips dog voiceover. "Yeah? Yeah?" "I gave it to the cat!" "Awwww!"
Reminded me of the Smith and Jones dialogues.
They are a wonderful coupole...
i've just re watched this particular episode, and i just love that banter with paul and tom. Tom, is growing on me as a funny man.
Can we?
Please Viva Vid post the four specials of Only Connect S14 that air Dec 18, Dec 19, Dec 20, and on Christmas Day. Happy Holidays
OMG, I love Tom Allen. "I've never named so many tools".
33m13s a split second when Merton half believes Hislop - love it.
God I love Tom Allen
I like Ayesha Hazarika, she's quick and funny.
I love Tom Allen.
I needed a bit of humor this miserable wee, thank you!
Thanks! =o)

For which they could be killed
The French also faught in North Africa
Against the Americans, English, and Free French. . . Not to mention the Gouniers ...
What do you get for the job? "UNLIMITED POWER!!!"
16:43 took me a bit but actually the best joke of this week :D
"the Blackshirts" (fascists)
When can see new episodes?? I absolutely love this program.
Delay the start of 2019? Oh no, wrong year, delay 2020!!!
Tom Allen as host
yes please
2018 & 2019 was fun...
Reindeer could see the light on his nose, at least.
Jacob Rees Mogg has a twitter? I just assumed he was a luddite.
He looks like he insists that his servants press his newspapers before he reads them.
To be fair, his first Tweet was in Latin...
@@MajesticDemonLord Oh God. If it were in English, at least we could assume he has an assistant to handle it like most competent politicians. Instead, it probably all comes from his own head. I shudder to think.
@@redlion145 I should point out, I'm quite the JRM fan, but even as a Fan, I'm not above poking a little fun at him.
@@@MajesticDemonLord Honestly asking, what is it that you like about him?? Is it that he keeps himself well polished like a "classic English gentleman"?? Or is there something else?? I don't really know much about him (except that he has very conservative views).
What did Lineker say on the blood pudding gag? I couldnt quite get it.
That one laugh in the "crowd " , If it isn't canned wtf
"It'll be a surprise if Trump is still president..." Oh no. Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no...
Why would anyone cheat on Bargain Hunt?
If I was gay, I'd marry Tom Allen.
If Gary Lineker were gay, I'd marry him!
Something seems wrong with Paul...
blaise marcc Theres nothing wrong with Paul, he's just got his hair brushed back (which doesn't really suit him) and he's playing a part. That's my estimation anyway! Actually he does look quite tired! And we're all getting older lol! (Mrs L)
He has been a grumpy old man for ages,fed up with doing hignfu and doesn't get on with Hislop,never has
@@pommygeezathey are family friends. You could not be more wrong.
Clee-burn Texas.
Brits you have no idea how much we would like to have a boring president because we have trump hes a lunatic but hes not boring
Gary is handsome
Surely it would be le pantalon, brun......
Wait. A fast-food shop is “morally reprehensible” compared to the Moulin Rouge of Paris?
Are you sure you don’t have that backwards?
Cleburne is clee-burn
Is that man in the audience with the ott laugh a ringer/plant?
The name of Cleburne, Texas is pronounced KLEE-burn.
Ian Hyslop knows strictly nothing about France .
I would not like to be rogered 42:13
Gary is the news now, what the hell are cheese straws
Sadly in 2023 there are still Trump 2024 flags flying. Not sure what it will take for some of these.... Einsteins🤷♀️
paul has become quite the cranky old curmudgeon
It's always been one of his personas! (Mrs. L) 🇳🇿
Shilton...still flapping.
The Grey Mouser was one of the inspirations for my old boss to create the Thief class for the game Dungeons and Dragons
I hate that audience member's laugh, can't help but think it's deliberate...

Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."

Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"
Shenzhen pronounced Shen-jen.
Brits only, please: Why is Salisbury a running joke on this show? They're always bashing Salisbury.
I didn't hear the joke on this episode but Google 'Russian spies' and 'Salisbury' and should get your answer.
Why do the audience fall into hysterics just cos some gay guy tries to be "over the top camp" in everything he says? Why is that funny?
ferraridinoman probably because he’s actually clever and hilarious...
Damn! What a shame he didn't show it on HIGNFY!!!
@@ferraridinoman Sorry you let it ruin your enjoyment of the programme.
ferraridinoman He did, he just didn't reach your level.
Do you go back to school early January after the Christmas holidays?
?
Oh no, not Tom Allen!. No thanks.
I'm pretty sure Paul is just doing it for the money, and Ian is only there from some honor code or contractual obligation. They're just never as invested any more...
Boring episode right before Christmas...
I'll start my stopwatch......for the first anti Trump anti Brexit 'joke'......Lets go......I hope I'm wrong
Poor snowflake.
I remember when this show was funny
😠😠😠😠
Poor little poppet who thinks humour is ideological.
Who is this Tom Allen bloke, and why is he always on stuff? He's rubbish...
Because he’s brilliant and massively popular. Now, you tell me why old gammon wander into places like this? You’re the joke here.
Lineker is an awful host...
He was awesome

Tom Allen is very funny though. We want him back.
She is beautiful 😍
