That Mitchell and Webb Look - Tiananmen Square Theatre Production with Lion Bars Sketch

[Didgedy]

I think Mitchell and Webb got an endless supply of Lion Bars for doing this sketch.

[DrBilton]

Lion bars.

[LordOgargd]

I want a lion bar D=

[Aimtofflan]

Money? Not money, Lion Baaars!

[oceanage]

Hmmmmm, i wonder why i suddenly want to have lion bars.....

[casusbelli15]

Last time I was in Costco I saw a pallet of boxes of Lion Bars;

That was the most Lion Bars I ever saw in one place;

It was a lot of Lion Bars!

[10INTM]

What do Lion Bars taste like? A lot of the candy from over there is a little too sweet for my liking. I suppose a simple Google query would answer my question, but I'd prefer reading a firsthand account from the sort of crowd that thought my prior comment amusing.

[jordypoe]

This sketch is so clever and subversive. I mean about how good Lion bars are.

There is this show in the U.S. called Psych and they very intentionally do this shameless product placement in every episode. It's so blatant that most people just think it's funny. I like how they live in Santa Barbara and are always eating at Dunkin Doughnuts as if there's one in the state.

[NZMyrmidon]

I wish they had Lion bars over here now.

[GinjaNinja1406]

Just had a Snickers... I feel robbed

[Omni315]

Lion bars and Mitchell and Webb, 2 of my favorite things!

[GoodbyeBlueMonday9]

David looks a bit like a hobbit.

[sl8m]

i wonder if they got paid by lion bars for doing this sketch?

[sjb300000]

I was literally powerless to resist going out and buying a Lion bar after watching this.

[hypedpotential]

@sjb300000 I'm off to the shops right now....and I'm going to try to snap it in half to make it look like a real lion's mouth ROOOAAAR!!

[ap0ph3nia]

I really want a Lion bar.

[DasNutellamaedchen]

I was eating Quality Street while watching this.

[crazypartyman1]

....i want a lion bar

[StormTheFuture]

ROAR.

[GarethNunns]

Number of lion bars... disappointing David Mitchell

[Redh0t2011]

4 people dont like lion bars!

[mxd1000]

ROARRR- wait. that didn't work.

[gl3110]

i do like lion bars...

[Radders123]

I'm on a diet at the moment and this sketch was hard to watch - bloody want a lion bar now - must resist

[Heath75032]

So close to reality

[MrBuch169169]

We shall never surrendah!!

[TheOtherBillyWoo]

I reallyyyyyy want a lion bar now.

[MrDanielrulesdaworld]

no not money, lion bars

[Karateworm]

Do they sell Lion Bars anymore? I WANTS ONE.

[Ourobotos]

Aren't the "lion bar people" more commonly known as Nestle?

[BrutalityEngaged]

@Ourobotos shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[piggyhoyahoya]

@Ourobotos Don't you mean aren't Nestlé more commonly knowns as 'The Lion Bar people'?

[1991PatMan]

1-0 to theatre!

[McKayonaise]

I never heard the phrase 'lion bar' used so many times in 4 minutes...!

[chrisnapierutube]

There should be a tank battle between M&W and mr T, where they fire Snickers & Lion bars at one another in Tiananmen Square. Extra points for not hitting carrier bag man. And boy am I buying a Lion bar in the morning.

[hairy0pothead]

The guys down at Lion Bars xD

[BaileysBeads]

This is exactly how all my group projects end in failures.

[LizaLips1]

God, I want a Lion Bar.

[hazza123656]

we shall never surendaaar

[dandelionsmoothies]

I soooo want to eat a lion bar right now - can't help but wonder if that mitchell and webb look is sponsered by lion bars??

[PocusUK]

living in the USA I suddenly miss Lion Bars terribly

[10INTM]

The key to this humor: don't use pronouns.

[mespursongles]

@10INTM I don't understand your comment... Now I can't sleep.

[10INTM]

@mespursongles If they said "them" and "these" instead of "Lion Bars" then this sketch would not be so funny.

[tidalwavedave305]

@10INTM Screw pronouns, pronouns are no good.

[mcqualter]

one nil to theatre!

[levelplayer992]

It is safe to say that I went out of my way to go to the shops to get a lion bar after this sketch.

[datoato]

hit 4 then 5 over and over.

[1337ontoast]

I really want a lion bar now

[Unbeginner]

It's actually an incredible good deal.

They could just offer every viewer enough Lion bars to cover for the ticket's price or more and it would make the show a smashing success, because the viewer would be offered Lion bars + show for cheaper than if buying just Lion bars at the store.

[teemue]

Used to be my fav bar. Damn i want one now.

[Urielthemagicalcrab]

One nil to theatre!

[DavidBennell]

Damn it I want a lion bar now..... They are really nice.... This may as well have been an advert rather than a comedy sketch.

[IGeorge94]

This would make the play interesting :)

[CraigMetalHead]

@OfCourseIAmOfAge They probably gave them... all the Lion Bars they could eat, maybe more.

Not money, Lion Bars.

[CraigMetalHead]

Lion Bars are very tasty...

[UnspecifiedCarnage]

I think this is a subtle piece of subliminal advertising for Lion bars... Because I REALLY WANT A LION BAR!

[TheEloeo]

Who knows, maybe the Tank Man on Tienanmen square had some lion bars in his shopping bag.

[drtoonie]

Now I want a lion bar too.... BUT IM IN CANADA AND WE DONT GET DELICIOUS BRITISH CANDY! :'(

[panicatthediscosuck]

Anyone else really want a Lion bar?

[RustlessPotato]

@panicatthediscosuck GOD YES !!!my mind is weak ^^

[Bootstrap193]

lol this made me really want a lion bar too

[admingeneral]

I really fancy a lion bar.

[TheMagOne]

oh the craving for lion bars is inexplicable

[Maximillionaire666]

I feel like eating a Lion Bar now.

[thewoopdeedoo]

I feel like this is trying to sell me something...

But i'm not sure what...

[constenebricus]

@thewoopdeedoo Lion Bars maybe?..

[Daktacort91]

so badly need one now :|

[scaryninja1693]

Sponsorship from the point of view of children, I love it. It ranks alongside the idea of teachers living in school after home time and getting change being great, because they give you money for buying something you like. It is that kind of thinking in a way, we will pay you in our product instead of currency, who can resist being paid chocolate?

[likayouful]

Well put together Short Clip

[Zanite]

'raaaaar' :D

[totallyunderpowered]

I'd take the deal.

[Punteros01]

I wonder if this is the only Mitchell and Webb sketch where Robert Webb plays the straight guy.

[MajikkaniHand]

Why is it that normal commercials do nothing for me, but this makes me desperately want a Lion Bar?

It's unfortunate, because I've never seen one, can't get them, and don't know what would make a good substitute.

[ronoc9]

@MajikkaniHand ....you've never had a lion bar? you poor soul! what hell your life must be! u dont know what ur missing!

[EnzoDisgraziato]

@MajikkaniHand If you're in the US you can sometimes get Lion Bars at import shops. Resse's NutRageous are a bit like Peanut Lion Bars, except with less wafer in them. Lion Bars are great.

PS: Lion Bars.

[blenderpanzi]

How many Lion Bars did they get for this sketch? lol

[ronoc9]

@blenderpanzi it doesn't matter, they were free. lion bars sponsored them.

[fattymattyweasel]

I hope lion bars paid them for this cos i desperately# want a lion bar

[hunkyzombie]

1:22 i love the sudden explosion of enthusiasm :D

[way2tehdawn]

I'd sell out free speech and democracy for treats. Vote for me in the next election!!

[squreshi10]

I have a sudden craving for chocolate.

[Quentinsama]

lol I wonder how much Lion Bar paid to be mentioned in this sketch

[koolyman]

@Quentinsama probably a whole load of lion bars...

[RakshasaCat]

@Quentinsama you see the payment laid out on the table there... and once those are gone they can jst go back to the Lion Bar building... and get a load more Lion Bars!

[yourverysilly]

I really want a Lion Bar now.

[gradgurl2007]

I want to join this theatre if they accept the Lion Bars deal.

[eratosphenes]

hah, when i was a kid and my dad said he would buy me one chocolate bar after school, I always asked for a lion bar!.... or a yorkie bar hehe.

[Caseus]

I think i'd only had one lion bar as a child, i didn't like it much. I watch this sketch and i'm now addicted to them...i love lion bars...

[robertmbishop]

I have just eaten I lion bar, and it reminded me of this. :D

[MandaOwl]

They mentioned "Lion Bars" 23 times. I counted.

[Truthiness231]

They're next to impossible to find in the States, but I have had a few. They're not bad, but just too rare here to bother trying to acquire...

[tugnori]

I don't think I had ever heard anyone actually say "lion bars" before I watched this sketch. . .but by the end the words had lost all meaning. Also great sketch as always from Mitchell and Webb

[MrBuch169169]

Roooooarrr!

[LukeGeoDude]

I've had only one lion bar in my lifetime and it was awesome.

[SethWreckLollis]

I wonder if Lion Bars gave them something as a thank you for this sketch. It must have upped the sales.

Oh, wait a second- Of course. They supplied the lion bars.

[bigheadblue]

"not money... LION BARS!"

[ectaste]

You know what’d make this sketch brillianter? Lion Bars.

[westr5000]

In Soviet Russia Lion Bars eat you.

[Maksymaxi]

oh man what wouldnt i give for a lion bar right now...

[seandahornet]

RAWR!!! oh.

[thelexus]

Lion Bars? LION BARS?!

[TheMikeyReilly]

So much for the BBC's no advertising thing.

Watching this made me go out to specifically buy a Lion Bar.

[prostreet572]

@TheMikeyReilly 

i've been like that every time i've seen some much so i bought two in the same day,but you have to admit they are nice.

[Outlander1138]

I hope they got a big case of lion bars for doing that sketch.

[tuberculin]

i am eating a lion bar at this very moment.

[mastershake400]

no, not money. lion bars.

[hello7854]

CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG BUT ITS 23 TIMES THEY SAY IT :D

[ingofreak]

someone count how many times they say lion bar

[crazymurdav]

I really want a Lion Bar now. Wonder if Mitchell and Webb were sponsored for this sketch lol

[zabycx2]

I feel ashamed that this makes me want to go find a shop that sells Lion Bars in the US.

[RudiThePrudi]

LION BARS.

[TwiSagaFan14]

This is AMAZING! I watched this on the live show, and I just love this sketch so much - Brilliant!

[Komsomoletz]

I wish we had Lion Bars in the States... They're so good!

[dicko2525]

"I could just go back to the Lion Bar building..... and get a load more Lion Bars.... they've got so many!" 2:43

[Spellchec]

I liked it when they mentioned lion bars

[Cakerolled]

@Spellchec

Shut the fuck up.

[Spellchec]

@Cakerolled I posted that 5 months ago you prick. What's your problem? Oh, you're Australian. Never mind.

[thedoctorand]

I suppose they'll have to stop eating anything else because they'll only be eating... LION BARS!

~Tim Prince

[MattickShock]

RAAAAAAR.

[mattyork84]

RAH! See, that one worked! GENIUS!!!
