Richard Herring on Edinburgh & Beyond 2009

[stupidjunk978]

This is the reason why Superdry's stock price plummeted. When fat dads start wearing your brand, it is no longer cool.

Except their erect penises look more like semis to me.

[ryderjames46]

That was really good.

Meanwhile, in Texas, George Bush Sr. and Jr. are nodding their heads at 00:35.

[InfamousPillarKid]

we were lucky enough to have richard come to our school so he could work with us :D :D we made a comedy sketch based on his material, and at the end he gave us a performance... it was the same one as the "me" in "team" sketch as well as adidas standing for "after dinner i did a shit"

[smithyatbroadacres]

He's awesome. But he does that "errr" thing at the end of a couple of jokes that him and Stew ripped on tmwrnj, Lazy Comedy Slags. What a massive hypocrit.

Thank Christ for the internet, where else could one make such meaningless pedanric statements under the comfort of anonymity.

@smithyatbroadacres Pedantic*

My anonymous internet superiority allows me to ignore everything you have just written, as I am disgusted with the misspelling of a single word in your otherwise perfect conclusion.

Who says po-tar-to anyway?

[TheBenjaminhorler]

[Sinekyre14]

[Webbula]

"Ya don't joke about stabbing, mate!"

[toggsuk]

LOL crunching beef curtains :D

[davros598]

I love this guy- totally amaxing!!!!

[BoonyBanny]

Okay. Shut your eyes, keep listening to Herring's routine. Change your receptors so that you are hearing a slight West Country twang to his voice.

Hey presto - you can experience the truth that Ricky Gervais stole Herring's act and persona.

[jammybella]

richard herring is hot as hell btw

[leda1974]

Too right he is. I met him recently and even with the Hitler moustache, I still would. He's sturdy and shaggy like a sexy little Shetland pony...PHWOAR.

[darthsasuke554]

British comedians are always the best

[ohnicky]

I've seen him do the pity fuck bit quite a few times now and when he picks on someone it isn't personal, they're just a vehicle for the joke. That guy looked like he could take it (and if you can't take that sort of thing, don't sit in the front row!).

[pcoll04]

thats crossing a line i dont care what anyone says. end of.

[polar1s]

@pcoll04

i felt like you when i first saw this , richard explained this in a collins and herring podcast this week when he did a similar thing, he doesn't think the guy is ugly when he's doing this, its a joke, if you think he's being harsh, you're saying it was horrible of him to pick on that ugly bloke! like many of his jokes he can turn it round on the viewer. i would say from listening to many of his acts he is not he sort of person who would advocate judging someone on looks alone

[Alceste1977]

@polar1s The bloke isn't ugly, he just has a somewhat effete manner. I am starting to wonder, since this is the same routine, did the bus driver get pissed off because Herring picked him out as the pity-fuck stooge?

[polar1s]

@Alceste1977

i'm not saying he's ugly, the passage i wrote obviously isn't as clear a read as i thought ;-)

[pcoll04]

Love his comedy but picking out that poor bloke in the front row because of his looks was fucking horrible of him.

[Dr0ctave]

That was rather cruel; I felt bad for that bloke. I hope he wasn't a sensitive person.

That said, I found this really funny! I'll make a point of going to see him if he plays in my city. And I'll hope there's someone uglier than me there if I sit on the front row!

[mmc786]

if u sit in the front row of a comedy gig u r gnna get picked on

[Flatvia]

love him but I prefer when comedians stay on topic a litle longer and don't change subjects too fast, still awesome tho =P

[SpeedyUnboxings]

richard herring monitor's this video I'm sure. I like his podcast with andrew collins.

[Quanny7]

fastly becoming my faveourite comedian along with daniel kitson

[roygranger]

It's an illusion brought about by his long hair, makes everything look more in proportion.

[rubberritchie]

Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!! : )
