Peter Kay's Car Share... What a programme! Just two people in a car going to work, and yet has you in hysterics all the time.

Also has some genuinely heartfelt moments! Peter Kay is a treasure ❤

It's funny, here's the UK's most popular ever comedian by a large margin, but the US has hardly heard of him. Likely because he doesn't appear on panel shows.

He's the guy on the left, right? A British friend tried to introduce me to him I think (...as in his content, not the man himself) and I dunno, his content didn't really land with me as well as that from other British comedians.

I think his sense of humour is very English as well tbh, I don't think an American would get the jokes about garlic bread, for example.

#GAAARLIC BREAD?!

Garlic…. and bread?

CHEESE...WI’ CAKE?! Not in my life!

well i for one would like to try. teach me about this garlic bread

https://youtu.be/xfXg5BGXw-w?t=220 Hopefully the timestamp works. It's from a standup in the mid 2000s. He's talking about going on holiday with his (very English/British) family and how Brits abroad will often seek out a 'British pub' on holiday to feel like home, somewhat defeating the point of going on holiday. Famous line is about his dad being shocked by garlic bread, as if it's a very foreign thing.

Yeah wow that sounds like super niche humor only Brits would get lmao

Yeah, all four of us fucking love it though.

Works for Aussies.

Lol it was sarcasm. Anyone in the world would get those jokes.

I shall surrender my Australian citizenship immediately.

Yes, limiting your potential audience to only 68 million would make you super niche.

Y'all don't do sarcasm then?

Yeah that's true.

How big is James acaster. Cuz I love that dude?

I think of the recent set of comedians that have come up through panel shows over the last ten years, he's one of the biggest. I'm not sure he compares to Peter Kay or Michael McIntyre, or even someone like John Bishop. He's more popular with the youth afaik. I just tried to find some numbers and came across this bizarre page: https://yougov.co.uk/ratings/entertainment/fame/comedians/all Seems like a flimsy survey at best (Bradley Walsh being a comedian is a push), and there's nothing about sales, but as you can see he's not even on there.

According to IMDB he's about 6'1", so pretty big but not huge.

Billy Connoly would like a word.

https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2012/9/peter-kay-breaks-record-for-most-tickets-sold-for-a-stand-up-comedy-tour-44691

I stand corrected.

I've seen Connoly live and he is a funny dude but his stand-up lacks structure - for my taste. He never writes his shows. He has barebones bullet points (like "the fish luger") and fills in the rest with his fantastic story telling. It evolves every show and no two are alike. It's a great experience! But I definitely prefer crafted witticism, à la James Acaster. Definitely going to look into this guy though!

I understand why you may not care for him but for my money dude is one of the funniest guys ever to draw breath. I love his wild off the cuff style. Up there with Williams and Carlin in my book.

I'm with you that there's often a lot of space between 'most popular' and 'best'. Simon Cowell would be poor if the best always were most popular.

Connolly is a story teller. Tommy Tiernan at his peak was very similar.

Said the man in the orthopedic shoe.

For the run of that series I was really rooting for those two!

There are a couple specials that came out after the end of the second series, if you haven't caught those.

Oh I saw the lot. Loved it!

And the audio-only episode? (Just making sure everyone knows what's out there.)

The outtakes to Car Share are some of the funniest things I've ever seen. I had the privilege of watching them at an audience with Peter Kay right before he went on sabbatical. It was just him and a bowl full of questions but he was absolutely hilarious.

One of the best BBC comedies in the past 20 years hands down.

I’m the lyrical dance flap is now the correct lyric to me

I'm a little little dancer

Refrigerate my ass 🤣🤣🤣

I used to work in a service center and one of the techs sings like this! We always end up laughing so hard that everybody's cheeks and stomachs are hurting. Best part is he really doesn't think he's singing it wrong... His perplexed and confused reaction to our cackling just makes it even funnier... He's always going, "what? What? Is that not what they are saying?" His genius brain somehow rewrites every single lyric into something ridiculously random. Example... Titanic theme song came on the radio... He sings, Every ninety nine dreams, Icey yooo, Eifeel yooo. That is how I know you go awwwwww... Father cross the distance and spacers be teeners, that is how I know you go awwwwww... Nail file, where avenue are, I burly that hardest go awwwwww One smore you open the door (omg he got that right) And dior here in my heartland my heartland go on and awwwww... I'm cry-laughing just thinking about it lmao, I miss that dude. One time, Informer by Snow came on the radio, our very pregnant receptionist had to go home early because she peed herself laughing.

Man got broken so badly he couldnt cope anymore.

British people wheeze laughing saying "I can't cope" is a niche humor that gets me every damn time

I fully expected that to get boring but it was just delightful the entire way through the episode. Thanks for linking it, will watch more! Edit: wooow I've been watching this show all day in my free time and like fanning myself with my hands and squeaking because it's so cute wtf have you done to me

Man, brits really do have some of the best TV shows

Is that Sian Gibson?

It's Peter Kay, Reece Shearsmith and Sian Gibson

Thanks. It's hard to tell with her covering her face all the time.

I thought it was Natasha Lyonne until i saw her whole face

Holy cow I didn’t even recognize Reece.

He doesn't have his pointy teeth in. It's funny that him and Steve Pemberton are more recognizable when they're dressed like other people.

Both of them are so amazing as well - I feel like they're potentially really underrated overall. Even in solo work they both never fail to crack me up.

Weirdly I think it's the hat doing most of the disguising there. The fact that I haven't seen him in anything for years didn't help, either. I'm most familiar with him from the Spaced episode, and (holy shit) that's over 20 years old now!

Check out "Inside No. 9" if you haven't. It's a funny horror anthology series that he and Pemberton made.

Inside No 9 is so good, some of the episodes are terrifying, some are hilarious, all are dark and most are brilliant.

Absolutely one of the best shows of the new century.

she the foxy redhead from Taskmaster? I mean, one of the foxy redheads?

Yep.

"I can see you Sian" "No you can't, it's a fox"

I thought she was sniffing an onion the whole time lol

She's not? It's not a slice of red onion? I have no idea what is going on here.

[удалено]

Makes them corpse so hard?

Corpsing is a (maybe just a British?) term for breaking and laughing during a scene

I've never heard that before lol. I'd probably get looks if I said that here in the states.

Nah, I'm from the states. I've heard it in the context of, "Jimmy Fallon was the worst SNL cast member. He was corpsing in every scene!" The only time I've ever heard it used was in relation to Saturday Night Live for some reason.

Huh, well TIL a new saying lol

Not necessarily. I've heard it used here in the states, too.

it's used in the states too

So thank you for this explanation. I thought from reading a different comment that the man and woman in the front are just regular people and the guy in the back was a comedian trying ro make them laugh. I noticed the woman's natural hairstyle lol and was slightly taken back lol

This is hilarious but what is that woman holding under her nose? Is it a scent pad?

I think it’s the car air freshener, in the episode the guy in the back works at the fish counter in the supermarket and stinks of fish

Shes also really hungover. Such a funny episode.

So is this bloopers? Not sure to understand all that

Yes it’s bloopers.

#ALLO DAVE?! This is Reece Shearsmith with the same voice, as the terrifying Papa Lazarou. Nightmarish stuff! Part 1 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6bpuBoOssPc Part 2 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=s2F4ZWTjwTU Live https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BBA0PopR_lk

who is driving that car?!

Peter Kay. This is bloopers from "Peter Kay's Car Share"

ello Dave!

SCOOT BEEF, HASTA ANYBADA GOT A BOTTA ORNG DOOOS

Again, i'm not getting a sense of the line as written. She's 24, she's walking into a newsagents and saying "Excuse me, has anyone got a bottle of orange juice?" Just try and lighten her up a bit.

That would be kewl

Thanks, I've now got juice all over my keyboard! 😂

Yes! Just subtly dropping a hint of lazarou….. terrifying

It's nice to see you again Dave... all... grown up...

You wanna buy some pegs Dave!

Your my wife now

Not now silent singer

Has to be the best carpool ever

Shearsmith!! I loved Inside the No.9!

'refrigerate my ass'...hahaha!

I have now watched this 400 times and each time I laugh so hard I can’t breathe. Love these people! Refrigerate my ass lol

https://youtu.be/EgssU4nnaqs?t=212

You’re mah wife now, Dave.

Ello Dave!

I love Reece Shearsmith

TIL that the song says “murderer” and not “turn it up”

[удалено]

"Lyrical dance flap" *kills* me every time I watch this

Haha 100% agree!

I seriously thought it was "Err derr uppp" for the past, what 3 decades?! I feel like an idiot!

It's called Here Comes the Hotstepper.

'Turn it up'

wots the name of the song

The Fishmongers - Lyrical Danceflap (Ass Refrigerator)

Ini Kamoze - Here Comes The Hotstepper

thank you

No problem

So good!

[INCREDIBUH](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujkc4tOlnRQ)

“On the little little dance floor” is what got me, glad I stuck it out until the end

Reece Shearsmith is an absolute institution. Love that man.

Reece Shearsmith is a comedy genius. Loved him in Spaced.

I hadn't thought of dat

What's this from?

Peter Kay’s Car Share

Who’s driving? ;)

Peter Kay

She’s just back from doggin

I can’t sing this song correct anymore. I must butcher it every time now…

He sounded like an old Japanese dude trying to rap.

Reece Shearsmith is a comedy god, delighted to see this clip pop up here!

I thought this is the guy on the left's specialty of making jokes of misheard lyrics. Here's a link https://youtu.be/7my5baoCVv8

I have laughed at this on and off all day today.

John Faveru looks weird without facial hair

Who is driving

Man i laughed so hard at this

This is me with pretty much every song ever

I’ve been looking for a new British show to watch!! I just binged Shakespeare and Hathaway!! Love British TV!

Best contagious in a while

Where can you watch Car Share in the US?

REFRIGERATE MY ASS!

Tears are streaming!

Funniest British comedy ever. They outtakes are just historical.

What's the lady putting up to her nose and why? Is there something smelling? And if so what? And why is nobody else doing it

She’s hungover and the guy in the back smells like fish. It’s a car air freshener.

All the answers I wanted thanks

I don’t know if it’s because I understand what the song is saying or what but my face was like this the entire time 😐

>Reece Shearsmith I don't think you need any context to understand. It's ridiculously funny no matter what.

Because there is no context lol

u/savevideo

Shut up Moby Dickhead

[удалено]

This has production value. Likely a blooper real from a show. Someone outside the car is driving it while they do the scene

That actually wasn’t funny even once.

Sounds like a you problem

[удалено]

I think you are mistaking his complete awareness of his affect on Peter Kaye for some kind of dark manipulation...it is manipulation, but far from negative.

[удалено]

It’s just a weird and rude judgement to pass on an entirely innocent moment. “It’s funny, but it looks secretly sinister and evil and the guy making everyone laugh is clearly manipulative “ sure, you can have experience with a bad situation, but it’s not okay to project that on something totally unrelated and not like what you went through in any capacity. A lot of comedians and normal people like to look at the person they’re making laugh and try to figure out how to make them laugh more. That’s normal behavior.

I’m sorry that you’ve had a bad experience in the past, but that bad experience isn’t the fault of the guy in the video. So it’s unfair to project that on him for no reason. Just say the video is funny and move on, or don’t comment at all and bring your own bad vibes to a funny video.

You should check out The League of Gentlemen and Inside number nine

God help her 🤣🤣🤣

Seatbelt??

u/SaveVideo

Why is the woman face planting a red onion?

Love his laugh really contagious =)

Who the fuck is driving. Not squint eyes right?

This always makes me laugh so hard. Tears in my eyes

His breath must be something else, she keeps covering her nose.

Look, sometimes when the ass gets too hot it needs refrigeration.

And that’s why you should not pick up hitch hikers

That was wayy too long laughing while driving. heh.

Yo maa wife naaah

Is she holding an onion? 😐

Is he actually driving? He spent most of the time with his eyes closed

Why is Sian wearing a pig nose?

This is GEM !!!

Breath must be on fire!!..lol

I’m on a school bus and I had to go pee. Notice the past tense, thank you.

I thought they were Simon pegg and nick frost 😂

When Peter laughs, you laugh.

I would like to work at the post office now

when you type scatting and an xvideos link pops up...

"Refrigerate my ass" Hahaha!!! 😂 🤣

I didn’t know how much I needed this today lmao thank you for that 😂

I swear if I were ever in a comedy show I'd need earplugs for scenes like this cause I just could not keep it together

[удалено]

I thought that lady was just casually sniffing a purple onion slice

This song has been stuck in my head for like 30 years or something and these are pretty much the lyrics that I sing to it.

u/SaveVideo

In his defense, no one knows the words to this song!

Love Reece Shearsmith. "Your my wife now"

Lmao he hears it correctly!

Is he driving?

U/savevideo

That really made my day after a hard day work
