Lee showing his quick wit "he really really wanted it" and only a couple of seconds of laughter and Rob is absolutely on the ball with "Stop right now" lol
I understand why his dad did this, if you have to have the spice girls music playing in your house, the last thing you want is to hear 2 spice girls songs playing at the same time like some sort of shitty dj has been let loose in your home..
@@SuperSoundtracks Then it would just sound like the kind of music they like to play ar the fair; the weird kind of echoey, tinny music that sound like it contains the sound of an electric razor. If the rides don’t make me feel sick, the music certainly will.
No normal family would ever buy 2 of the same albums in the 90'.. thats the real reason.. so James dad used it as an opportunity to teach his kids a lesson.. Parenting was more about long term happiness in those days, now its all about the short term..
She really had a point though. Like how much does it cost to take a whole family swimming to arrange this talk to be had on neutral ground rather than just buy two of the same album.
@@EaglePicking Music is healthy and fun. If the whole point of taking them swimming was to avoid a scene, then they could have easily spent that money on a second copy of the cd. If they were going to the pool anyway fine. But if you have money to take the whole family to the pool, you can probably afford 2 cds.
"I think it would be easier to just go out and buy another album." --------parenting is not about what is easiest, sometimes it can be hard and involves a lesson. Also, for some families, a 2nd $15 album can mean the difference between having a turkey on that table at Christmas or not. You can really see the difference in both economic and social strata amongst the participants in this very funny WILTY scene.
Noddy was in a cartoon that featured a character named Big Ears. Lee had made the joke "who's your friend, Big Ears?" in the first round in reference to Noddy and Big Ears. As these improv comedy panel shows have to be heavily edited, the panelists sometimes repeat each others jokes in case the jokes get edited out, like James does at 0:59. The audience responded to James' call-back reference to Lee's joke from the previous round.
Was this uploaded because of christmas or because Spice Girls is coming back (heard it from radio today). Also, are we getting Acaster the upcoming series? We haven't seen him telling a lie in the show.
I'm thinking it was his version of the medieval tradition of the "trail of treats." Either James would kill himself, or he and his sister would fight and both drown. Less mouths to feed, and not actually murder. or he just thought it would be funny.
You really don’t want to get two of a musical album. He hopes they would share it. But anyone with kids know that you also have to choose an owner else you would be refereeing until the gift is damaged.
Sorry if I've already said this in this comments section ...but it is a bit foolish to call a swimming pool a safe space ...just think about them ...exactly.
Did it say it was new? I saw it just to see if it was still just as funny as the first time round. In my opinion (personally, obviously!), it was. So no bs as far as I'm concerned.
James Acaster is his generation's Bob Mortimer. In another 30 years he'll be doing his own dental work.
Perfect description of James Acaster! 😂
Yes. Could have not said it better. This is it. You nailed it!😅
"Following advice from Bob Mortimer I've started doing my own dentistry. I've been doing it for 20 years."
@@ikaro555 Maybe Mortimer will hook him up with his Fuji IX supplier.
James, Henning and Bob. When the story becomes nuts, it is true.
True. Them or Rhod. All absolutely insane. 😄
Or Greg Davies.
Kevin Bridges deserves an honourable mention.
@@peterclarke7240 sorry missed the s
And if Lee Mack is speaking, it's a lie.
I love that the other panelist’s are killing themselves laughing…he’s unique..he really is.
the intro of his second special from repertoire is the most original stand up intro I have ever seen in my life, james is awesome
It's amazing how James maneged to match with the background even in a show that it's not his
Lee Mack and Rob Brydon making Spice lyric jokes is one of the highs of life.
I loved Lily Allen in this episode. She seemed to love every moment of being on the show.
Well, I guess it makes a difference from her pop star life being totally run by other people.
No rant on her btw, she looks a nice person. But that business she's in...
I love when non-comics come on ready to have fun
His cabbage tormenter was a great story
James Acaster and Bob Mortimer have the best true stories.
Greg Davies too
@Subhi Hussain then of course, Kevin Bridges has the greatest story of all.
"Yes,
and it's always TRUE!!"
@Subhi Hussain amazing lives and amazing stories from that lot! 😂😂😂
When James slept in a bush in a dress after a night out. Best story
Lee showing his quick wit "he really really wanted it" and only a couple of seconds of laughter and Rob is absolutely on the ball with "Stop right now" lol
They're very quick witted!
"Thank you very much" - for that comment :D
I understand why his dad did this, if you have to have the spice girls music playing in your house, the last thing you want is to hear 2 spice girls songs playing at the same time like some sort of shitty dj has been let loose in your home..
Or both ends of the house blasting spice girls, only one end is 2 seconds behind on the same song.

James'dad didn't buy the no talent album for James , because James dad has musical taste and needed to protect James from an album of garbage.
@@distantcoff7391 but he did buy it for James' sister Ruth.
James should have his own show.
Lee making fun of James for reusing his joke is hilarious
I don't think that James has told a lie yet
LOL: "Which happened?"
James Dad was my science teacher at school
What a great story. Love James
What parent is gonna buy two of the same item when the kids can just timeshare(forcibly) the item?
She really had a point though. Like how much does it cost to take a whole family swimming to arrange this talk to be had on neutral ground rather than just buy two of the same album.
Swimming is healthy and fun, though, so there goes that argument.

you're not factoring in spice girls' spice! coming out of two bedrooms simultaneously at high volume
@@StanleyKubick1 there's that
Imagine the spice girls album playing in 2 separate rooms. Or more likely they had one cd player, and thus it makes sense to only have 1 album
I thought this was a new episode from this Christmas. Unfortunately it's several years old.

Anyone who knows James (as a performer) would know that this is very very likely to be true.
I truly want to meet James's family. I just think they would be just hilarious and fun to hang out with.
Except Ruth. She sucks.
His dad is in this ruclips.net/video/c01ZRLKOzxA/видео.html
Reminds me of Gussie Fink-Nottle.
Thumbs up for P G Wodehouse
Lilly Allen looks incredible
1:10 Can someone please tell what James says here. And why is it funny?

When Bloody Vicars Of Wessex Opened At The Wiltern Batman Hathaway Attended
Comic genius. Seriously.
I feel like Rob Brydon was setting them up. "Stop right now." should OBVIOUSLY have been replied to with, and only with, "thank you very much."
meh
No because because that's just reciting lyrics and not a joke you see.
So obviously true!!
is the song at the end from the freakin aerobics championship?
I feel bad, I ended up with 2 copies of Spice

I thought noddy was germaine greer
When she asked, "which happened"? Honestly, surprised he did not say sarcastically, well obviously I died.
That question was a brilliant punchline.
I could tell it was true.. too much detail
Yeah when he told that his parents pretty much completely ignored what he was doing I was convinced :)
Everyone laughing that they went swimming before Christmas. In Australia, common occurrence
Even the Prime Minister does it. Well, he used to.
Lily looking like a snack here 🔥
I want to hear more about his Dad’s motives. What was he supposed to be thinking?
I'm thinking it was his version of the medieval tradition of the "trail of treats." Either James would kill himself, or he and his sister would fight and both drown. Less mouths to feed, and not actually murder.

He didn't want to accept that his son might be gay.
His parents are super religious so I assumed his dad didn’t want his son liking an album that was considered “girly”.
James is the freind everybody wished they had,,, and the freind you wished would just go away!!!
Lilly is such a beauty
She’s not
You'd think they only ever made 6 episodes of this show....
who stoppeds him?
Wut?
Sorry if I've already said this in this comments section
...but it is a bit foolish to call a swimming pool a safe space

...exactly.
@@joseffgriffiths8393 Well played!
Lilly Allen has had some work done!
Didn't know it was her. But we'll done.
Who cares
He used this story already. Long time ago.
For someone who remembers that, you forgot that this WAS the old episode he told that story.
This is that time!
LOL
@@Dranzerk8908 well, he is long ago...
OO
Lmao wut?
thought it was a new one not one from years ago, click bait bs
