Room 101 - Bill Bailey - Part 4, The 80s

[daedralord1]

no bill not the 80s

[albinobetakno]

paul is older than bill? 0_0 mindfuck

[hestheman929]

Also, Yuppies: Young Urban Professionals.

[hestheman929]

It is weird to see Bill with normal hair as a teen. Thank god I was only around for the last year of the 80s, not that the early 90's were much of an improvement.

[mistie710]

Yeah, I liked the 80s too, but only because I neatly avoided the mainstream pap in favour of the sort of stuff that students were listening to at the time which was mostly either 70s Progressive Rock or Heavy Metal or alternative stuff in the indie market.

As for Orville, I still recall his meeting with Zippy from Rainbow that time when Orville finally learned how to fly... "Do you see my foot?" :)

[Noukz37]

80 were really crappy... Except some cars though, but thats it.

[sootyferrari65]

I liked 80s music. Peter gabriel was a good one

[mistie710]

@sootyferrari65 Never really counted the Angel as "80s" considering that he made his name with Genesis originally during the 70s. His music always surpassed the crap that it often had to jostle with in the charts back then.

[ClaudiusDK]

Who is the duck?

[UtterlyHeleno]

@ClaudiusDK - That, my friend, is Orville...

We do not speak his name out-loud for The Feathered One represents a dark and sinister time in Britannia's past, a time we try in vain to forget...yet the memories from those baleful days still linger on, never relenting in their perusal, never allowing us to forget the horrors that occurred oh so many years ago. Ask no more...the less you know of The Green Fluffy One the easier you'll sleep at night.

[slashboy5]

Ze money iz in ze eyez!

[TheKlink]

Merton's older than Bailey!! No wai!!!

[MrSpacecabbage]

All this fashion is back !!!!! sad but true

[BabeayAlphaaa104]

hèh_í_feèl_sò_løNÈlY_tÓÐÅÿ

[landshark295]

Deleting the 80s means deleting "the young ones", though...

[Jj0nnn]

I HATE THAT DUCK!

[SarciB85]

Orville? ...Yess!!

[2000AD]

So that's why everyone's down on footballers wearing snoods, they're from the 80's!

[p3mb0007]

I hate the 80's. And I'm a 80's child.

[astalabandi]

3 people watched the first 3 parts, didn't like it, AND THEN DECIDED TO WATCH THE FOURT?!?!? Morons...

[Khamudy]

I understand why Bill put the 1980s in, but I love that little 80s sequence, the synth music is cool. Haha.

[mrbeanaswell]

wish I was there....

[ELuhn]

@mrbeanaswell There was a gas shortage, and a flock of seagulls. Trust me, you're not missing much.

[mrbeanaswell]

@ELuhn i thought it was oil...?

[kemp10]

@mrbeanaswell hes quoting something but i forgot what it is and now its pissing me off

[mrbeanaswell]

@kemp10 what do you mean?

[kemp10]

@mrbeanaswell I was talking about what ELuhn said. Its a quote from the 2nd austin powers movie.

[lennic95]

Bill was kinda cute ^^

[Cpt50Caliber]

......if i ever see that bird in the street i will fucking TEAR OUT ITS BEAK!!!

[zeomatrix3]

Bill in his youth... O_o why... lol

[mooneepondskid]

They always show outlandish 80's fashion which most people NEVER wore...lol.

[AtheistBrit]

@mooneepondskid The actual "everyday" fashion wasn't much better... LOL

[mooneepondskid]

@AtheistBrit It wasn't that bad..hehe. I know you are a child of the 90's so I won't bag you too much.

[AtheistBrit]

@mooneepondskid I was born in '82 - I'm a child of the late 80s/early 90s and personally wore some frankly shocking clothes!

[richardsfinalfantasy]

Getting up and having a piss in the sink? Was he living with Ricky Gervais at the time?

[myg0tpurepunk]

Woman

Against

Normal

Kissing

[gloomyoutlook]

wowww, he looked cute xD

[milkkart]

funny how we've pretty much been doing the 80's all over again since 2000. same shit grabby culture, shit fashion and shit music. we've even grown a madonna clone.

[sgtgorillaz]

What about guns n roses?

[VierasMarius]

Wow, 80's Bill Bailey looks like the lead singer of La Roux...

[onomatopoetically]

Wow, Bill Bailey was hot then! Old age was not kind on him. Still, he is quite entertaining, so who cares.

[Dilandau3000]

Thanks a lot, Bill Bailey! Thanks to this, I WAS NEVER BORN! :P

[bareakon]

me and my mate have been racking our brains, trying to think of a truly great act that came from the 80s.

60s: The beatles

70s: Hendrix

80s: ?

90s: Nirvana

00s: i haven't decided yet, maybe Muse

[letthegalaxyburn]

@bareakon Muse definatley :D

What about R.E.M? Or micheal jackson?

[SethHesio]

@bareakon The Smiths

[bareakon]

@SethHesio haha, very funny

nah, i never had a Smiths phase

[SethHesio]

@bareakon Well... it's never too late you know. They're really good.

[pzetler]

@bareakon Pixies.

[lololiet]

@bareakon Hendrix died in 1970...

[bareakon]

@lololiet okay then, Hendrix moves back to the 60s and Queen or Bowie take his place in the 70s. happy now?

[philo0]

Ze money is in ze eyes!

[Svelter]

What about the Smiths...?

[mrfrostynova]

Best music came out of the 80s shame on you Bill!

[beatle1874]

the reasons the 80's was so lame was that was the decade when american culture took over big time.and also shellsuits

[NitromeGamer]

3:40 he kinda looks like Tim Minchin XD

[Sum09142165]

@NitromeGamer

dont you mean tim minchin looks like bill bailey?

[Corbon440]

Young Bill Bailey was hot!

[LittleKrissieUrine]

bill, the 80's had metallica!

[BleedTheBlind]

One redeeming thing about the 80's was Thrash Metal...but besides this gem. It was drivel and toss!

[IAMCJ1]

@BleedTheBlind damn right

[longlivetheroses]

but the stone roses bill nooooooooooo

[FreedomValentine]

For an 80s teen or young adult, Bill looks gorgeous. Or looked.

[fuckyiuyiu]

the smiths were around the eighties... thats why they cant go in Bill

[arturner22]

oh my god thats bill?! wow....

[martinmedeski]

i'd wear a snood

[mert0571]

@martinmedeski i think snoods are back in some parts of the world

[fili44]

i love bill's little chuckles to himself when he thinks of something funny like at 3.27

[glebber]

i'm going to look up the Famous Five and see if i can find them.

[MrsMe16]

Yuppies, Young Urban Professionals.

[bubble992]

hahah! oh, young bill is so cute! wants to ruffle his hair...

[UtubeEmployee3387]

Paul Merton older than Bill Bailey?

Jesus!

[SaintLouisX]

Exactly what I just thought lol. O.O

[kisbie]

Yes, by about seven years. What's really amazing though is that Paul is three years older than Ian Hislop!

[SilvioSAMP]

what about AC/DC, Van Halen...etc all the good rock music that came out?without the 80s there'd be no back in black and no 5150...etc.

[Eheynike]

no offence to anybody who like this show but i cannot stand the presenter... he's just got that face, manner of speaking and attitude/personality that really clashes with mine. bill bailey on the other hand is god in my eyes

[WrestlingRevealedLes]

To be honest Paul Merton didn't really shine on this show. He was a good choice for the presenter but he's much better on HIGNFY

[bibby5000]

i agree... this show has never had a good presenter

[pinkshrimp]

NNOOO the 80s were FUN!!!

then came grunge, wanted despair, and denimland... Noo let's remember colour and fun!!

[haribo687]

ze money's in ze EYES!! LMAO

I agree, the 80's were pank, the music alone was bad enough. I wonder if people will look back on the 00's and want to put it into room 101?

[ibuchanan82]

Possibly as there is an 80s retro revival going in so really in ten years when we're ashamed of the 00s really we are re-living the shame of the 80s and the day some neo-bill-bailian comic appears on room 101 to throw the 00's into the room we will create a time paradox which will in turn cause a rift in the time/space continium creating a massive black hole that will suck in all fashion/musical gaffs from all era's of time therby creating a new dawn of human existance one of peace and good hair

[haribo687]

Hahaha I like your logic

[direweasal]

I already want to put the 00s into room 101. Got fed up with them in early 2003...

[camp14dogg]

AAAARRRGHH!!! Orville!!, get it away!!

[thedarknesscallingme]

*grabs the rifle*

must...kill...ORVILLE!

[radiator26]

dont harm him! he still feels pain :(

[thedarknesscallingme]

but its evil...EVIL I TELL YOU!

...thats why i use silver bullets ^^

[radiator26]

im putting you under arrest for A.P.C!!

(animal and puppet crulaty)

step away from the bird, with your hands up!

[thedarknesscallingme]

BUT THE EVIL MUST BE STOPPED!

*points rifle at orville*

[radiator26]

NOoo! what has he ever done to you?

*stands infront of rifle with arms folded, looking cross*

[thedarknesscallingme]

CAN YOU NOT SEE THE EVIL! IF YOU SIDE WITH HIM THEN YOU SHALL DIE TOO!

*points the rifle at you*

[radiator26]

Hay! that's NOT very nice!

*kicks you in the nuts and runs off carring Orville!

[thedarknesscallingme]

*collapses on the floor in pain*

DAMN YOU!

[radiator26]

Mwhahahaaa...

*claps hands happily*

[MacchiatoMe]

The picture of Bill in the 80's reminds me a little of that 'La Roux'-girl... :p

[Traitorfish]

@TenStoryLoveSong @TenStoryLoveSong I swear to god, there is no single greater sign of empty-headed pomposity than somebody who sincerely expects to slip "ignoramus" into and otherwise extremely beige screed and carry it off.

[HarrisonRocks]

Well you got all the way to part 4 you arrogant prick.

Sorry i'll say that in a language you'll pretend you understand; you've managed all the way to part 4 you pretentious, narcissistic, self-important, vain, pusillanimous titweed, just another wannabe internet elite who's desperate vanity has to slander people he doesn't like anonymously as an empty compensation for hes worthlessness but instead falls flat as another archetypal troll and frankly you're just plain boring, so fuck off.

[spazzing]

The 80's have made a comeback though. In the fashion world, it's not as dated, not completely, but a more refined sort of look. I like the crazy colours and bright colours and stuff, lol not the hair though haha. Course when we look back in 20 years, we'll all be cringing.

I was born in the 90's and THAT was a decade to throw out. It just didn't make sense, it was like everyone had used up any new ideas and decided to go with what was left over. Lol now we have to go backwards b/c it was good.

[John27346]

Only reason you like the retro 80's is because you are a sheep and a dedicated follower of fashion. Your opinion is not important because it is generic.

[spazzing]

LMAO okay buddy you must be hardcore at being important and being different and dressed in douchebaggery attire. True sheeple would wear Ed Hardy/Christian Audigier/Smet/Shit.

[soeffingwhat]

I spent my Late Teens and early 20s in the 90s and they were saying that about the 80s then. Now they're saying 'we want the 80s back'

[FrankieTheOreoDealer]

I was born the same year as Sonic The Hedgehog, '91.

Same decade as Pokemon, Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel.

Loved it, always will ;)

[AtheistBrit]

I was born in 1982 but only really remember 1989 onwards, my husband was born in 1981 and LOVES the 80s. I never understood (and still don't get it) why he loves the 80s so much! I think I blocked the trauma of the decade out of my mind.

[ellie9311]

i was also born in 1982 and i dont remember much of the 80's only toys and the cartoon's of the 80's which where the best ever cartoons like thundercats, he-man, TMNT

[soulofshiver]

was Bill describing the 80s or the 00s?

[youvebeenthunderstru]

ze money is in ze eyes!

[SparrowisSexy]

He looks so sweet in that early photo! I would ;)

[gotbannedbefore]

snoods are ssssooooo warm to wear

[firelovesugar100]

"But I'll always be there Orville!" XD XD XD

[Satakunta]

Bill Bailey rules!

[duffer87]

bill bailey is great but cmon, the 80s were just funny!!! its brilliant!

[johnsjollygiants]

i love bill bailey

[speckle126]

I think he looks pretty sexy in a snood. Mmmmm.

[Adebisi2008]

pissing in a sink in a bedsit, oh the memories...

[LuvLennonMcCartney]

the 60's n 70's seemed class, they really did fuck the 80's up. It got a little bit better in the 90's and i just don't know what's going on now?

[blackattack100]

I laughed when she had a stroke.

She's a fucking idiot.

[JMR83]

Gosh what a lovely kind hearted individual you are.....

[hatecryme]

thatcher and reagan were reluctant satanist piss mongers. They were too afraid to go fully crap and attempt to conquer to world so they resorted to shitting all over the working man/woman.

[JMR83]

you talk complete bollocks sir

[hassankachloul13]

No tis you who talks the balls prick face. I hope you cry when you read this because for the first time in your life someone has smacked down on your nose twat. Oh yeah dicky prick dick duck. Woop WOOP.

[JMR83]

Wow, what an amusing schizo bipolar troll you are being. And for the record I was not saying you talked bollocks but directing that jibe at LuvLennonMcCartney. Sorted?

[hassankachloul13]

Your word bollocks make me squimish and I find inhabiting the same planet as you an immense discomfort and highly unsatisfying state of affairs. Excuse me while I vomit out the taste of your inadequacy.  BLARGH.

[JMR83]

Whatever, troll. You are as unfunny as Bill Bailey

[hassankachloul13]

JMR83= BIG PILE OF WANK

[JMR83]

hassankachloul13, fucking puerile troll

[hassankachloul13]

I pissed in your sink I hope you enjoy the taste of urine in your mouth because you drink from the tap that's what you do. OMG I hope you scrape your knee on a sharp bush.

Troll this John Bastard.

[JMR83]

So funny and so mature, child

[hassankachloul13]

You have the face of an arsebandit and the arse of a cunt

[hassankachloul13]

[babycapone92]

Yes, baloon skirts are back and have been for a while now. Am I the only one feeling like their entire existance was put in room 101 that day? Being born in the 80s and all...

[fritspas]

he could take a piss in the sink without getting out of bed?

that sure is some sort of a talent, isn't it?

[GrainneMhaol]

Those puffy skirts are back.

[GlennMarkReuben]

What is that song at the beginning, with "ei-ei-ei-ei-ei-ei-eighties"? Is it a theme tune, or an actual song?

[kazzzyali]

[hassankachloul13]
