- When Pie gets a gig presenting a new documentary about climate change by eco-filmmaker Franny Armstrong, he thinks he's in for a jolly couple of days by the seaside.

The last honest journalist in the world is a comedian acting like an honest journalist. We are done.
There is actually a couple more that I can think of... I don't remember the first one's name, but he's almost instantly recognisable in that the way he dresses makes him look like he's a time-displaced reporter from the early 1900s, wearing a trenchcoat and a hat with one of those little "press" notes on it... Second one is Amy Goodman.
Well if you don't mind I'll get me a comment down here, so if anyone knows who that chap actually is I can get a notification
@@lordwunglerbeckett Just for you, I went on a search for him. And I found 'im. He's known as Greg Palast and is a freelance investigative journalist. I seem to have misremembered the stuff about him having the "press" note in his hat, (haven't been able to find so much as a single shot of him with one of those as a matter of fact, so I guess that's something my brain has always kinda subconsciously added whenever I've seen him,) but aside from that, yeah, he still looks like he's a time-displaced journalist from the early-mid 1900s... He's not perfect, of course, no-one is, but he's good, and it seems to me that he's got his heart in the right place, frequently putting his focus on exposing corporate malfeasance as well as doing everything in his power to push labour unions and consumer advocacy groups to the forefront.
A couple of personal recommendations:
A report on vulture funds in Liberia from 10 years ago: ruclips.net/video/6TtS4AZk6DI/видео.html
Bit more recent and relevant; a report on racial voter suppression and vote theft from the 2016 election: ruclips.net/video/zvgEYp-vxZQ/видео.html
Very recent and relevant; how Bernie Sanders and his voters were suppressed in California 2016, and may very well be suppressed again (most of this clip is Lee Camp talking about information dug up by Greg, but Greg himself has some choice words at the end, too): ruclips.net/video/JSsrRXvD1PI/видео.html
Oh now that's just too kind of uou good sir, mamy thanks, many thanks indeed
@@lordwunglerbeckett You're welcome. And, uh, I hope he'll manage to restore a little bit of your faith in modern journalism. (We really do need some fresh, new blood there, though; both Amy and Greg are over 60 now and, like Bernie, they probably won't be around for much longer...)
It's fascinating how showing the process of filming a documentary actually makes the topic of a documentary feel way, way more real
Hi Legend Zero, this is Franny the writer/director/sort-of actor. You don't know how happy your comment makes me - Tom and I had a hunch that what you're saying was true and we set out to make this film to prove it. Totally chuffed that we succeeded! I just tweeted your comment on @frannyarmstrong by the way - thanks so much for writing
@@SpannerFilms01 Thanks for doing a great job, keep up the good work :)
Wonderful. Exposing the elephant in the living room every time.
This shows budget has just shot up.
From the website it looks like it was crowdfunded!
Francis Moore awesome then👍
it hardly needs a massive budget. Tom Walker, a camera and a MacBook would do it.
@@Rapscallion2009 And the drone shot.
@@greggsonic probably the drone was cheaper than the film camera
“The Sparrow’s Fart” sounds like a pub where Pie would be a regular.
Nah, Pie can't drink booze otherwise he wouldn't have noticed all the shit going around.
Allan Spraggon yeah, that’s not quite how that works. Also, see 11:50 into the video...
Sparrow Fart is another name for pre dawn 🙂
Blown the year's budget already I see
Thats capitalism baby.
Luckily he didn’t need it.
I watched Pie from the beginning and I'm always impressed by his ability to deliver without fault, current issues in a comical way, with a serious undertone. This issue cracked me up, but I was pleased to see him getting his hands dirty, litter picking. A problem that I regularly address. Keep 'em coming Jonathan!
This really encapsulates what 'Jonathon Pie' was all about right at the beginning:
"What news reporters actually think and do off camera"
It's so great to see Pie is still being pie after years, and so good it's for a real cause.
Also the self-deprecation section hanging on to the boat was really emotive.
It really made a difference on me, and the conclusion: "Capitalism, Baby!" could not be truer.
Amazing work as always, but this tops every video made by Pie.
Congratulations to everyone involved!
Seconded
Amen
I had a stroke 4 weeks and would like to think your comments would have liked to have what would have liked to have said, so thankyou for your comment, I did my best to convey my thanks!
@@NoNameJustWords wishing you a speedy recovery
Agreed
The scene at the end with him picking up the trash though.
Dan Cojocaru rubbish

@@TheDaverobinson we call it garbage in Australia. Same shit, different name.
Poignant.
I liked it, sends a message that we can still do our bit even though it is only a bit 👍
The most honest climate documentary you’re likely to see.
He's probably very nice to everyone off screen, it's scripted realism i'll give you that
@@jorenbaplu5100 still realism
@@Mustafa-xd6jz uhm yeah i know what words mean thank you for clarifying
Joren Baplu yeah... I think he might do it serious then tell them afterwards, a bit like Ali g etc
________ yeah that's right, say what we need to do is give the government and Google and Facebook and the oil companies and the military industrial complex and the banks and the federal reserve even more power because they're great at protecting our freedoms and privacy and prosperity
*sees discarded plastic bottle - "Disgusting!", walks right past it, not picking it up
*next shot, drinking water out of a plastic bottle
Amazing :)
Yeah. I need a mcmuffin too. 😒
It’s satire... it’s not an actual climate doc😂 it’s supposed to be funny and informative to a certain degree.
Anthony you didn't watch it until the end, did you?
And the euro flag on a life vest of that French fishermen.
Is great to be great. 🍷💊🍺🍷💊🍺🍷💊🍺🍷💊🍺🍷💊🍺

Hope the BBC see this, would be a perfect segment to include on the new Partridge show
BBC would shit their pants if this appeared on it 😂
No. Please. Never the corrupt BBC. Not Pie.

To have pie and partridge in the same room...
@@scotsbillhicks I do love Partridge, too. Hmmm ... Partridge and Pie. A slice of Partridge Pie ...? But no, Coogan may yield to the lure of the BBC but not Pie. IMHO.
It’s me, it’s me

On Partridge, on Partridge...

I'm dead
It was a lovely touch, him picking up the rubbish, then getting in the car and not saying anything.
I think the part where he was sitting down having a quiet think about things after his rant and then walking alone on the beach, which you mentioned, was a very poignant moment. It had that, 'well I've spent the day with people who are really trying to do stuff, what the hell am I doing?' feel about it.
Baldrick So true - I hadn’t thought of your point that he might have been realising that he’d been with people who are actually doing something about the crisis. Before that, his rant felt like he was speaking for all of us individuals who feel powerless in the face of it all, but then he actually did something about it, which makes me think I can too.
His character really is an angry Alan Partridge. Love how the character is both aware of the issues, but also aware that he is part of the problem.
Wouldn’t it be good if Jonathan Pie and Alan Partridge did a skit together? It could be called The adventures Pie and Partridge. Just a thought.
@@rootangent2472 Knowing the BBC they will just call it 'Pie and Partridge' because to be quite frank with you anything the BBC does these days is a fucking adventure. I'm joking but I really like your idea! :)
I was disappointed when I saw that Pie was not angry enough, but then he exploded and it all made sense again!
Jonathan Pie needs his own TV series. It would be dynamite!
The video and audio quality in that one is incredible. Whoever took care of that deserves an award.
A BAFTA award!
Drone work took it to another level.
@@carlab994 A Radio Times Award, at least.
"it's 4 K“
@@rtdl2 why not both?
Tom this is brilliant. In the age where most people are getting their news from talk show comedians because the real news is too depressing, you've managed to find a comedic format that gets across an overlooked topic without undercutting the tone with a studio audiences laugh track.
Omg, I just can't get over the white balance on the "official" shot 😂
Pie looks like he's pissed/sunburnt and wearing a sailor's suit
Tom Walker is the most underrated actor in the UK
Yeah but he's a hell of a singer! 🤪
I laughed until it hurt then sat back at the end with a very nasty hollow feeling in my stomach, genius Pie, genius. Thumbs-up to EVERYONE who was involved in this fabulous production.
Martin Tripp Genuinely original, the whole thing. Loved it
I've only been watching Mr Pie for a couple of weeks, but I subscribed after watching the first upload.
I have to be select when I do due to uncontrollable laughter!
Thank you.
I swear each episode gets better and better. How has this man not got an award yet???
I love the ending in the beach, even thought the rant in the boat was true, the end proves that sometimes, just sometimes, we do give a little bit of shit 😊👍
I would like to send a personal message to Mr Pie for his great resolve and dedication in single handedly saving our planet. If he doesn't receive a knighthood something is seriously wrong. The world owes him .
“Or we could not eat cow”
“But we all like a burger”
“Or we could eat a seaweed burger”
“That’s not going to happen”
“Yes it is”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
titovalasques I don’t often agree with Pies opinions but in this case he’s right
Haha, I love pie, because its fucking not gonna happen unless you tax the "peasants" out of being able to eat meat, but then if you do that, guarantee you'll lose the next election.
Very Alan partridge
7:25
😂😂😂
Tom. You are a massive talent. Thank you for this work. I know it’s satire and comedy. But the truth you speak is undeniable.
What did I do? Gave up meat, moved closer to work to cycle or walk, went on UK holidays, bought ethically produced products (where possible), locally sourced food etc... but I don't have kids. I find it truly alarming that often the parents of kids are the ones taking the least amount of action. Thank you pie for highlighting the issues
Hey, this is really well produced.
Pie has ripped the parliament to shreds and now takes on his biggest challenge ... us!
Nah it's pretty easy to rip us apart
Imagine this: you awaken into the body of a man holding a camera and a man slowly walks towards you shouting about net zero emissions.
When rants have a reached a high level of scripting and production... hats off Mr. Pie!!
One of the best he’s done 👍🏻
karl Hurst I agree
Absolutely.
That is the best 13 minutes and 10 seconds I've ever spent watching a video on RUclips. Absolutely brilliant. Bravo Johnathan Pie!
Oh yeah? You should stay in more.
So you're telling me that Pie was where I live and I didn't notice.. WHAT
Same here..Brixham is about half an hour from me
When I was younger I stayed in Coverack every summer for 10 years, it's my favourite childhood memory... bizarre to suddenly see Jonathan Pie running around the place doing his usual routine of swearing and insulting everyone around him. Two worlds collide
Lucky, I live in Suffolk and we officially have the world's most boring coastline.
@@willh976 it's such a lovely place.
@@dougclark9921 I dunno.. you should see the coastline where I live. 70 mile walk to the beach...
Thanks Tom Walker. This is the most honest portrayal of climate change. The last shot was awe inspiring in the sense that with a bit of work we can all do something. So thank you :-)
seaweed rant had me stitches. hats off for this documentary, professionally filmed and perfect mix of humour and sobering reality. Great work all.
This was excellent on multiple levels ... One learns a few things and then understands how illequiped we are for dealing with the problems we create for ourselves ...
"Let's go see the seaweed then!"
"... Great." 😂😂😂😂😂
That was quality
“There’s a seal” nice trigger for reflection.
I don’t get it, please explain. ☹️
NICTATOR for all our daily outbreaks and frustrations, the closer we get to the potential consequences of our actions, the more we’ll stand up. Consider the difference in attitude if you were to remove meat from packaging to taking the knife yourself to the throat of the future making of a sandwich. It matters. We’d be less cruel if our empathy was more advanced and forward thinking but let’s work with what we got
@@damien884 That's a lot to extrapolate from a few words.
Sun Jara agreed
@@KyrstOak Agreed :). I think it was the maritime version of "SQUIRL !" :'D
I just love how he’s pissed off with all the production nuisance.
Deeply and surprisingly moving. Once again speaks for the collective. Thanks mate.
Ok, the Brian Cox/Things Can Only Get Better thing got me! I laughed so hard I scared my cat.
Lumibear That’s a hilarious comment!
ckin50 no, no it is not, but I’ll take it anyway. *dances away*
@@Lumibear.
I loved Pie singing that, he hates Blair so much, good man that he is :)
chokinonashes61 don’t we all, what a let down. And nothing of any worth has come from Labour ever since, except the comedy value of their in-fighting over things that only the most privileged could ever get passionate about.
He's a lefty though so remember that before you get all right wing about this. This is a leftist satire channel. That's why I like it
This is fantastic, Tom. Holding a mirror up to our hypocrases, and raising awareness of some actual solutions (in their earlier stages) to climate change. All while entertaining the hell out of us. Top notch, pal.
Every time I think I’ve got Pie figured out he goes and throws a spanner in the works doesn’t he? Just brilliant stuff here.
The message at the end of this is so powerful. If we all spent a little time cleaning up after ourselves the world would be a totally different place
Making a documentary using what would normally be the outtakes. Brilliant.
Something about this reminded me of the blackadder when they went "over the top"
"we could eat seaweed burger"
"that's not gonna happen"
🤣🤣🤣
The she says "Yes it will" and is completely ignored by Pie.
@@harveylimpopo3042 This is the response from all hardcore environmental activists, they really think they are going to get you to join their insanity, by force if necessary.
@@stephenmason1028 well, Australia's on fire, so that's a pretty strong imperative...But tbh I don't particularly want to totally give up cow, so I guess let it burn...
@@nickjones9867 The funny thing about the Australia situation is it showed everyone the undeniable. The fires were "irrefutable proof" of climate change. Then there were all the arson arrests. Then there was the fact that some environmentalist groups had actually hindered or fully stopped wildfire preventative measures previously. Then the heavy rainfall, which aided with the fires, was *also* "irrefutable proof" of climate change. So, to sum up, if there are wildfires like in all of history it's climate change. If it's arson, it's still climate change. If it rains, it's climate change. And if environmentalist lobbying groups actually made the situation worse instead of better, it's climate change. Riiiiiiiiight
People all over Australia have lost their houses and shit and tons of animals are dead. And the media are orgasming at the idea of using this disaster as a vehicle for their climate change agenda.
Feigned generosity is better than genuine apathy. This was a surprisingly moving piece. Well done. Also, your messy hair is adorable and you're my favorite comedian.
That moment when you realise a comedy sketch can also be poignant art
That moment when you realise no matter where you are on RUclips, there will always be someone making a cliched comment.
Truly. Pie deserve to be on stream. Not that he should, and we might be talking about capitalistic gatekeeping again but whatever. He deserves it nonetheless.
@@clegsmegson2627 that moment when you realise that someone's follow up comment is funnier than anything you've ever posted :P
Ricky Gervais done it many times
@@thefierce4324 _ Lets hope he doesn't ever need to and makes more than enough doing what he obviously likes doing.
"And now for the weather.......which coincidentally is the thing that's f*cked" XDXD. This video was so brilliant!
The weather is not the climate, dunce.
He got it so right.
Lokio Pens Loloc - you do realise Jonathan Pie is a character, right? He mouthed off a lot, but doesn’t know everything or get everything right.
@@msandersen certainly do know that bud
this is new kind of journalism and i love it m8 !
This is just so absolutely top gear right now. I love how they purposefully screw up and act all funny to actually draw you into it. You don’t get many other countries doing it like this.
Pie: much ado about muffin.
Shakw Makw that's quite good
Bravo
As video maker from a very small town I absolutely love the style of these videos. Like a being behind the scenes of behind the scenes then back INTO the scene lol. Its really hard to film this way and takes so much planning so I totally tip my hat at your team!
Pie is utterly brilliant he always hits nail on the head
Stonking. Thank you for making this film. We all need to look in the mirror to see what we are/aren’t doing or saying. Jonathan Pie is the perfect vehicle for us. Will be sharing far and wide! Hats off to you all 👏🏻
I just spent an hour clearing trash off the local riverside after watching this. Now, where do I find a recipe for seaweed burgers?
This is the best show on RUclips right now. So much real shit that regular TV would say FACKOFF to.
Loved the call back to the plastic bottle from almost a year ago. Comedy genius
Oh yeah! Caught that there
Still didn’t pick it up! LOL!
divorcedme errrr guilty.
Jesus Christ Sandra, he's *literally* saving the planet!
He's really a city chap. Rural and costal Pie looks wrong.
Yeah, he's a total urbanite, but this is fun!
@@DistantCousin urbanite, i hadn't heard that term before. I like it
Is a costal Pie like a coastal Pie, just a little different? 😂😂😂
He's from Taunton.
@@robertw.1499 gods of autocorrect strike again.
What a great tale ! We get to see both extremes and then our pretentious anti-Hero learns a lesson and starts walking a sensible 3rd route. Not for admiration or glory, but to actually do good. Absolutely lovely :)
I thought the last scene would be him walking along picking up trash and bawling his eyes out over the seeming utter futility of it all.
I...honestly felt the same way. I guess it might have to do with how the video resonated with us.
It's like trying to re-stack a row of dominoes as you watch the rest of them tumbling.
Your comment reminded me of a PSA (Public Service Announcement) that used to be played on American television back in the 1970s: ruclips.net/video/uGu4AwL5Kho/видео.html
It's futile. But that doesn't necessarily have to be depressing I think is the message. Just keep on trucking along doing your best, can't do much else.
It is futile, but Pie (as a character) is an angry man. An angry, angry man. And anger can translate into "fuck the odds" attitude - which is what I think they were going for in that ending.
Deep down his character cares, possibly too much that no matter how cynical he gets, he wants to make that difference. He's angry with the hypocrisy of it all, that's his underlying schtick - but ultimately, he does what he can, as a hypocrite himself perhaps. I think the last scene is the 'real' him (or those of us) just getting on doing what he/we can outside of doing it for the show of it. As always, hilarious but also a stark real message. Clever comedy!
Absolutely brilliant! Comical but educational at the same time. I never knew about mussels, seaweed and CO2 connection.
the part about cows seems a bit suspect tho
@@84C4 Mostly in that cows don't fart much methane - it is predominantly belches. Ruminants, eh?
Watching Jonathan squeeze into that wetsuit was absolutely hilarious!
Absolutely loved this! Love the normal videos, but this was a great change. Also, more Franny!!!
Absolutely brilliant! Do more of these!!
Loved, loved, loved this. Pie is a master at eliciting both laughter and tears. ⭐👍
Always with a solid slug of truth and humor in the gut! Imagine a full length documentary...Pie Style? I'd crowd fund that 🤘
The production costs have gone up but the writing is just as good as always - perfect. More informative and funny than anything the BBC are doing about any serious issues faced today.
Love the format. Great bit of edutainment. More of this, please.
The longer form of this episode really worked. I love the usual short bits, but this was a different kind of good.
Poor Franny. Well at least Tim got a break.
11:28 "The Arctic is on fire!" 😂😂😂
yeah that line confused me too
@@ajrwilde14 Confused? It was hilarious :D

Genius 👍
Bit like Top Gears Semen episode
@@nick000002 not seen it, I'm not a petrol head 👍
This short video is absolutely brilliant. Serious subject handled with proper outrage but with the utter frustration we all feel. Go Pie!
This was amazing Pie
Also learned that seaweed and mussels store carbon :)
Agreed this was legitimately informative as well as amusing.
All life in earth is based on the carbon molecule, so anything that is alive and growing will capture carbon.
Carbon based life is made of carbon omg who knew
The structure of everything alive is made of carbon. The most efficient thing that captures carbon is peatland, glorified treeless swamps.
@@Gstrangeman96 hmmmmm that's interesting, doesn't surprise me though. And it makes me sad because where I live places like these are filled in and built on as fast as possible. And then when the floods come and destroy the houses they just rebuild but put cement culverts in so the water just rushes out to sea instead of sinking into the land and keeping it hydrated. Oh well house prices are booming these days better build build build! 😑
Hilarious, interesting and what a powerful finish. Wonderful work Mr Pie. The hanging off the boat scene really hit close to home. Thank you.
It's always refreshing to hear and watch your clips buddy lmao
Laughing and crying. Thank you. Hits home so well.
EFFING SPOT-ON AND STUNNINGLY FILMED. THANKYOU.
Love the ending. And “there’s a seal!”
Best thought provoking laugh I've had in quite some time. Been ages since I laughed that hard, or thought about what the fuck I can actually do to help. Thanks Pie...
"I did fuck all, like everybody else! Can't we just tell the TRUTH for once!" Brilliant, truthful rant, per usual.
Amazing video, thanks man. It hits the spot with this the most important issue of our times with some quality comedy along the way. I was particularly touched by the ending as I got a blue peter green badge about 25 yrs ago for picking up rubbish on the beach with my dad.
My expectations from Pie have been completely blown up. This is genius. To reiterate: Genius!
"We could seaweed burger" "Not going to happen" XD
Simply the best show on RUclips.
You’ve gone very Partridge, Jonathan. In a good way.
In a plagiaristic way.
@@sratus No one owns any genre of comedy. Just like no one owns 'action' films.
And you clearly haven't seen, or at the very least understood much Partridge if you think this is exactly the same.
In a funny way. Partridge is unfunny cringe garbage.
"There's a seal." If this single line does not go down in the annals of comedy history, it's a conspiracy.
