00:00To talk to you. This is lovely. Hello. How are you? I'm good. Okay. I love what you're wearing. Thank
00:06you. I love what you're wearing. No, have it. Shall we swap? Let's swap. At the end of the night,
00:12it's all yours. Okay. I mean it.
00:33Hello, hello. Thank you. You are very fun. Hello and welcome to the show. Thank you so much for joining
00:44us. I've just met a woman who has eight pet cats. One is called Malcolm. We have a lovely audience.
00:52Thank you very much.
00:53A lovely audience and some truly excellent guests are joining us on the sofa. So let us begin. One of
01:00the country's finest comics. He's back with a new series of Last One Laughing. It's Jimmy Carr.
01:16She's in the six-time Oscar-winning film One Battle After Another and is here to tell us about her
01:22new series, The Testaments. It's Chase Infinity.
01:34We know him from the fall and the Oscar-winning Belfast. His this week's host of Saturday Night Live UK
01:41is Jamie Dornan.
01:51And she is the star of Friends and is here as actor, writer, and producer of her show, The Comeback.
01:58It's Lisa Kudrow.
02:03Thank you. Thank you so much. Have a seat.
02:14I know we have to be casual about it and cool, but Lisa Kudrow.
02:25Thank you all so much for coming because many of you have quite bad jet lag. I mean, Jimmy, you
02:32got in from Australia literally this morning.
02:34Well, I flew from Australia but via Los Angeles. Oh. So it was... I went... I'm basically trying to prove
02:41flat earthers wrong.
02:44How do you deal with it? What's the answer? Lisa, what's your... Do you have an answer? You get on
02:49the plane...
02:50Drugs.
02:53But what are you supposed to eat? I can't travel anywhere. I can't go to Manchester. I get jet lag.
02:58I've never... Yeah.
02:59It's true. I've never moved. But I don't think you're supposed to eat. I think you're not supposed to eat.
03:04You know when to eat on the plane, right? Right. I don't eat plane food.
03:07You don't? I do if I'm hungry.
03:10LAUGHTER
03:12LAUGHTER
03:12That's how food works.
03:14LAUGHTER
03:16Is it true I read once that you love meat?
03:19I always... No, I always travel with, like, biltong. It's, like, a cured sort of...
03:24Beef?
03:25Dead animals, yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:27And when you say, like, do you take a slither or are you taking a bag?
03:29I take, like, a big... a big bag, uh, just to get me through, yeah.
03:34A big, sort of, fatty bag of, sort of, old meat.
03:38LAUGHTER
03:39As fatty?
03:40Well, I... You can ask for it many different ways, but I ask for the wettest, fattiest stuff.
03:44What's... What's happening?
03:45LAUGHTER
03:45You can get, like, pre-packaged stuff in supermarkets. It's terrible.
03:48I feel like I need a visual of it. No, I go... I go to, like, a South Africa...
03:52It's the store. Like, it's the South Africa themed store.
03:55But does the meat... Is it odiferous? Like, does it smell really bad?
04:00I don't think it smells bad, but I think other people might think it's...
04:04It smells bad. I don't know.
04:05Just curious. It smells good. You know.
04:07Yeah. It smells good?
04:08Do you... Are you a meat eater?
04:09I love meat, yeah.
04:11Listen, I'll bring you to the South Africa themed shop.
04:14LAUGHTER
04:15OK.
04:15This is the worst episode of First Dates ever.
04:18LAUGHTER
04:19Um, Chase Infinity. The best name on the sofa.
04:23Yeah. The best name I think I've ever heard.
04:26Hey!
04:26Um, your parents are very clever. How did they put it together?
04:29And I'm so sorry if you're bored of answering the question.
04:32No, I will answer it as many times,
04:33because I love the story of my parents coming up with my name.
04:37But pretty much both movies came out in 1995,
04:40which was, I believe, the year that my parents got married.
04:42But, um, they had watched Batman Forever
04:46and Nicole Kidman played a character named Chase Meridian.
04:48And they were like, regardless of anything, her name was going to be Chase
04:51because they were obsessed with Nicole Kidman in that movie.
04:54And then Infinity comes from Toy Story to Infinity and beyond.
04:58Oh!
04:58And I've just gone by Chase Infinity since I was ten.
05:01So...
05:02I love that.
05:02They sort of decided what you were going to do
05:04before they even met you.
05:06Kind of crazy.
05:07Literally crazy how that happened, but yeah.
05:09I love it.
05:10And what's your sister called?
05:11Her name is Dolce, and she's into fashion.
05:13She went to school for fashion.
05:16Is that all you have to do with your kids?
05:18Yeah!
05:19My parents kind of were like, wait a minute, hold on a second.
05:22Movies, fashion, this is where we're going.
05:25I wish I'd known.
05:26Yeah.
05:26I would have given my kids different names.
05:29Um, I don't want anyone to panic, because we will talk about
05:33Friends, because I know you three are obsessed.
05:35But first of all, can we, uh, talk about the comeback, please?
05:39Yes.
05:39Yes.
05:40It's the best.
05:44Because...
05:45You know it?
05:46Who knows the show?
05:48Also, you said, uh, the comeback is the greatest show of all time.
05:51I think it might be honestly.
05:52Oh.
05:53Friends a second.
05:54OK.
05:54I'll go to the meat shop with you.
05:57I'll go to the meat shop with you.
05:59I'll go to everyone.
05:59Now it sounds rude.
06:01Um, but before Friends, before Phoebe was created,
06:06you had this idea, right?
06:08You were...
06:10Oh.
06:10There was a character that you created, you couldn't let go.
06:13At the Groundlings, which is a sketch, comedy, improv,
06:17theatre company, and I wrote a character monologue
06:21called Your Favourite Actress on a Talk Show.
06:23And she had a short red wig, and she was really phony,
06:26and I just, you know, it was funny.
06:29I won't do the whole thing for you.
06:31Um...
06:32But we're on a talk show.
06:34This feels like the perfect time.
06:36To do something funny.
06:38Yeah.
06:38No, it's not the right place.
06:40No, but I...
06:41I mean, I do remember one...
06:46But I do remember one sort of thing.
06:48She was just so phony that she would say, you know,
06:51like, actors who can be really self-important.
06:53And she just said, um, no, you know, it's funny,
06:56because what's really important to me now is, um,
06:59you know, the planet...
07:00LAUGHTER
07:01..we need to save the planet, everybody, OK?
07:05Please, please, as a favour to me.
07:08LAUGHTER
07:08I love you for it, I will.
07:11You know, so that was my funny thing.
07:15LAUGHTER
07:15It certainly was.
07:16Pretty funny.
07:18Pretty damn funny.
07:21You were so advanced.
07:23You were miles ahead of everybody else doing a mockumentary
07:29or a fly in the wall, however you would describe it.
07:31Of reality shows.
07:31Of reality shows.
07:32Yeah.
07:33And you made it, and it then had a cult following,
07:35but lots of people were like, what?
07:36Yeah, what's happening?
07:37What are these cameras moving around that I hate?
07:40You know, and, um, yeah,
07:42there were no housewives of anywhere yet.
07:45Well...
07:45We're gonna have a clip.
07:46This is from series three.
07:47This is just as Valerie gets offered a big job.
07:50Yeah.
07:51Have a look.
07:52And they are offering Valerie Cherish...
07:54Uh-huh.
07:55Please note that I said offer, not audition.
07:58Noted.
07:59Yeah.
08:00A starring role in their new multi-camera comedy.
08:04Wow.
08:04Right.
08:05It's been thrilling.
08:06I could cry.
08:08Um...
08:08In a multi-cam.
08:09So sitcoms are making a comeback.
08:11Yeah.
08:12Knew they would.
08:13You know, people need a laugh.
08:15Now more than ever.
08:17Yeah.
08:18Oh.
08:20Okay.
08:21What's it about?
08:22I don't know.
08:23Oh, okay.
08:24What's the part?
08:25I don't know.
08:26Well, what do you know?
08:29Well, I know that you're not gonna have to deal
08:31with any asshole writers.
08:33It's being written by A.I.
08:37Uh-huh.
08:38Now, is that allowed?
08:47It's so fantastic.
08:50Was there a little bit of you, or was it slightly inspired by The Office at all?
08:55Oh, I loved The Office.
08:57Yeah.
08:57Yeah, yeah.
08:58And when I saw these reality shows, I went, oh, gotta do this.
09:04Because I have a lovely fact.
09:06Is it true, Jimmy, that you took Ricky and Steven on a tour of Slough?
09:11You said, do it here.
09:14Yeah, I took them on a tour of Slough, yeah.
09:17Because when they were writing that, we were all hanging out.
09:19We did like our first Edinburgh Fringe together.
09:22Yes.
09:22Me and Ricky and Steve.
09:23And then we, yeah, they wanted to know, because Reading wasn't quite shit enough.
09:28LAUGHTER
09:31But Slough, which is where I'm from, is, it's legit shit.
09:36LAUGHTER
09:36And then, and then I, uh, and if anyone's watching this in Slough, stand by that.
09:42LAUGHTER
09:43And I kind of, I took them round and then, and then was just explaining,
09:47oh, yeah, there was, this was where the nightclub was,
09:49and then told them that the nightclub was called Henry's.
09:52It was a Henry VIII-themed nightclub.
09:54LAUGHTER
09:55I mean, yeah, sort of writes itself, doesn't it?
09:59Yeah.
09:59Oh, my God.
10:00Also, in the comeback, and this is weird that I say that,
10:03because I'm part of the UK version, your character, Valerie,
10:07takes part in Traitors.
10:08Uh-huh.
10:10And...
10:10I know.
10:11And...
10:13And Valerie's, uh, stint on Traitors was inspired a little bit
10:17by somebody on the UK Traitors.
10:19Yes, it was.
10:21On Linda.
10:22Linda.
10:22Oh!
10:29Because, for those who haven't, um, seen, and they...
10:33I'll just explain, Linda was the person who, and I said,
10:36Traitors will meet each other later, and looked at me and nodded.
10:40LAUGHTER
10:41And there was a bit of Linda in it, wasn't there?
10:43A bit?
10:44Yeah.
10:44Oh, my God!
10:46Yeah, we had Valerie, someone saying, like,
10:48well, I think he's a traitor, and she's,
10:50oh, no, I can tell you 100%, he's a faithful.
10:53LAUGHTER
10:54How do you know?
10:55Just, I have a... I have a feeling.
10:57I mean, you know, I don't...
10:59Don't you wish we knew who the traitor was?
11:01I do.
11:02Something so stressful.
11:04Yeah.
11:04I love the fact that it was based on Linda,
11:06and I think it's only right that you meet her.
11:08But...
11:08Oh, yes!
11:09Linda!
11:11Hi.
11:11Oh, way!
11:12CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
11:28I love seeing you.
11:31I just somehow wanted Linda and Lisa together,
11:36even just for a minute.
11:38But, Linda, in your wildest dreams, when that happened
11:41and you looked at me and went, got it!
11:44LAUGHTER
11:45Did you ever think that then the mighty Lisa Kudrow
11:50would use you as inspiration in her amazing show?
11:53No!
11:54LAUGHTER
11:56Crazy.
11:57Absolutely.
11:58On our show, she was voted out, like, that night.
12:03No.
12:03What was wrong with your group?
12:05Seven.
12:05Yes!
12:06Episode seven.
12:07They took a very long time.
12:09They took a very long time.
12:11Because you're very charming.
12:12Ladies and gentlemen, Linda.
12:15Thank you, darling.
12:18Thank you, darling.
12:20Oh, my God.
12:25That was thrilling.
12:27That was true.
12:28That was thrilling.
12:28What the...?
12:29We're all still alive, though, yeah?
12:32Yes, we are.
12:33I just...
12:33I just...
12:34I couldn't help it.
12:35When I watched, I was like,
12:36Oh, hold on a minute!
12:38Yeah.
12:39I know, but they didn't vote her out.
12:40Sorry, none of them are here.
12:42So I can say, not bright.
12:44No.
12:48She basically held up a sign.
12:51Yeah.
12:51Like you said, so traitors.
12:53That's me.
12:53Yeah.
12:54I'm right here, nodded.
12:57We absolutely love the comeback.
12:59It's on HBO Max with new episodes airing weekly.
13:04Yeah.
13:04Um, Jamie, we're going to talk about SNL,
13:06but first of all, slightly friends-related.
13:09Everything is friends-related.
13:10Let's talk about flat shares.
13:12Because didn't you share a flat with Eddie Redmayne?
13:15I did, yeah.
13:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:17A long, long time ago.
13:18That's Eddie there, yeah.
13:20Conveniently on the TV.
13:22Yeah.
13:22He'd prefer if you used a picture he's holding his Academy Award.
13:25Oh!
13:27I get that.
13:28Yeah.
13:28Um, what was he like as a flatmate?
13:30Or what are you like?
13:31I'm a real, like, OCD, neat, freaky person.
13:34And so is Eddie.
13:35I mean, Eddie, it's not like we shared a flat and then haven't seen...
13:38Like, he's one of my best mates still.
13:40Oh, right.
13:40But this is, like, 2018 years ago, I think, in LA.
13:43Uh, no, we were really, um, tidy for, like, you know,
13:46a couple of guys sharing a house together in Laurel Canyon.
13:49Uh, Chase, you live with your best friend from college, I think.
13:53I do.
13:54And how is that?
13:55Because it must be lovely when you're, you know, Oscars,
13:58all of this, like, busy and then you go back.
14:00Is it lovely to live with her?
14:02Well, it is, but I haven't been home, like, in probably,
14:06I don't know, six months.
14:08So I go home for, like, maybe three days at a time.
14:11And I'm like, hey, change my luggage.
14:13And I'm like, OK, bye.
14:14Thank you for being here.
14:15I love you very much.
14:17But, yeah, but it is nice.
14:19And, like, getting to go home and kind of ground myself
14:21and then she's my best friend in the entire world
14:24and I love her very much.
14:26Aw.
14:27And she gets her own apartment.
14:29She does.
14:29She gets a completely empty apartment.
14:31Yeah, sublet.
14:32Why is there someone in my room?
14:35Um, Jimmy, talk to me about, what's it like sharing?
14:38Have you...
14:39I used to live with a couple, yeah.
14:41And?
14:41Come on.
14:42Well, then my mum and dad.
14:44LAUGHTER
14:46Um, Lisa, didn't you meet your husband through your flatmate?
14:49Yes.
14:50I was living with a French woman, Isabelle,
14:52and he had just moved to the US
14:56and was told to look up this French girl
14:57and so he came to take her out and I just went, no.
15:01He's for me.
15:03This isn't going to work.
15:04And now, oh, my God.
15:06Is that French lady still in your life?
15:09Yeah.
15:09Mm-hmm.
15:10Yeah.
15:10No, then we met again six years later at her party
15:13and started dating.
15:15Oh, cool.
15:15Yeah.
15:16And everyone said, Lisa, no.
15:18Not him.
15:19One French guy, really thick accent, he said,
15:22Lisa, Michel, he's a butterfly.
15:25He goes from flower to flower.
15:30And you were like, I'm the best flower he's ever going to make.
15:33No.
15:33No.
15:34I said, yeah, it doesn't matter.
15:35There's a rebound thing for me.
15:37LAUGHTER
15:39Been together ever since?
15:4030 years.
15:41Yeah.
15:42Congratulations.
15:43APPLAUSE
15:47I believe there is somebody here
15:49who's got the worst flatmate story.
15:52David?
15:52Yeah.
15:53Hi, David.
15:54Tell me about the flatmate.
15:55Yeah, I was an entertainer, a red coat on holiday parks
15:58and I was told I was going to share a very small caravan
16:01with the guy that was on the entertainment team,
16:03but he just never stopped.
16:06And he would be telling jokes and we wouldn't finish till 1am
16:10rehearsing shows.
16:11And then you'd just fall asleep and you'd hear some horrible noise
16:15and he was on a unicycle.
16:17Oh!
16:17He was practising.
16:18I'm not kidding.
16:19And he wasn't very good.
16:20He'd be banging on the walls.
16:22Honestly.
16:22And then you'd go and work and then you'd come back
16:24and he'd get his jumper out.
16:26LAUGHTER
16:27And he loved cooking fish.
16:29LAUGHTER
16:29Well, I enjoyed our time together.
16:32LAUGHTER
16:35APPLAUSE
16:39Very much...
16:41Very much his side of the story.
16:43LAUGHTER
16:44And you're good at the unicycle.
16:46I would have been good if someone had let me practise.
16:48LAUGHTER
16:50Thank you very much, David.
16:52So, Jamie, let's talk about SNL UK.
16:55Sure.
16:58You host tomorrow night.
17:00How are the nerves?
17:02Or should I not be asking that?
17:03Or are you feeling fine?
17:05I go through phases of feeling fine and feeling comfortable.
17:07The team are unbelievable.
17:08Like, I feel incredible support.
17:10You know, they're a very funny bunch.
17:13You know, I just feel immense support
17:15and, like, gratitude that I get to do it.
17:17It's a proper honour, you know.
17:19Yeah, huge honour.
17:20Let's have a look at a clip this was from Saturday night.
17:23Mm.
17:23I'm just here as a long-time SNL employee
17:27to help out and to answer, like, any questions anyone might have
17:32of what to...
17:33Oh, hi!
17:33Yeah, Nicola Coughlin.
17:35CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
17:39It is lovely to see you.
17:41But my question is, if this is SNL UK,
17:44then why are you the first host?
17:47Like, shouldn't it be, like, a British icon,
17:49like David Beckham or Judi Dench or, like, Shrek?
17:52Well, that is a valid question.
17:54Why an American host?
17:55And the way it was explained to me was that,
17:58for this first episode anyway,
18:01how do I put this politely,
18:03none of you fuckers would do it?
18:05LAUGHTER
18:07APPLAUSE
18:07Yeah.
18:08Who's going?
18:09Who's going?
18:11Who's going?
18:11Um...
18:12Tina Fey is amazing.
18:14Has she helped in any way with you?
18:17Yeah, well, I guess I'm the fucker who's doing it.
18:19Which is...
18:20Important to note.
18:21Yeah, Tina and I have done a movie together, so, you know,
18:25I know her and she's incredibly supportive.
18:27She's been around all this week.
18:29I mean, look, it's so iconic, you know,
18:31even from the, you know, the early days of Dan Aykroyd
18:33and Chevy Chase and Bill Murray and people,
18:36friends of mine who I've worked with since at Kristen Wiig.
18:38You know, it's...
18:39It's just incredible, but even in the sort of...
18:41that sort of company or in those conversations.
18:43Yeah.
18:44Um, Lisa, you hosted, didn't you?
18:46Yeah.
18:46How was it?
18:47I don't know.
18:49LAUGHTER
18:50Blanked it up.
18:50Yes.
18:51Was it...
18:52Was it terrifying?
18:53Terrifying?
18:53Too late to pull out.
18:56LAUGHTER
18:56I've been making jokes about that with them all week.
18:59LAUGHTER
18:59No.
19:00Saying things like I might be there,
19:01I plan to be there, but I might not be there.
19:04And, uh...
19:05What day is it on again?
19:06Yeah, exactly.
19:07LAUGHTER
19:08You're going to be utterly brilliant.
19:10Have they asked you...
19:10Yeah, yeah, yeah.
19:11..to sing?
19:12Uh, no, but I will sing, yeah.
19:15They haven't asked me, no, but it's live,
19:17I can do what the fuck I want.
19:18LAUGHTER
19:22Yeah.
19:22Yeah, I do.
19:25I love the story when you went, I believe, for a singing audition
19:29Yeah.
19:29and you decided to deal with your voice in a certain way.
19:32Yeah, I did.
19:33I was first up, it was out in L.A.
19:35Around the time I was probably living with Eddie,
19:38and there was a movie called Rock of Ages,
19:41I think, like, Tom Cruise was in it,
19:43and, uh, you had to sing, and, like, I can sing
19:46as much as any other sort of douchey actor guy.
19:50But, like, I'm not, like, a great singer, but I can sing a bit.
19:53And I was first up, it was, like, 10 a.m. in the morning,
19:57which in those days, like, pre-kids was, like, an early kick-off.
20:00Yeah.
20:01And, um, I thought, I'm not really good enough to be in this room,
20:05so I thought, right, well, what I'll do is I'll drink whisky.
20:10Um, so I bought myself a little quarter bottle of, like, Jameson.
20:14Big up Ireland.
20:17And, uh, because it was so early in the morning,
20:19I hadn't had breakfast or anything, I sort of got up, brushed my teeth,
20:21had a shower, and, uh, I arrived, and I sort of opened the door
20:25of the car, and I sort of saw the whisky in the car door,
20:28and I went, that's the first thing that passed my mouth apart from
20:30Toothpaste, so I, as soon as I drank it, and I puked.
20:34LAUGHTER
20:36Like, really violently puked.
20:38Um, like, sort of down my front.
20:40No. All down thing.
20:42I didn't have, like, mouthwash, you know what?
20:43So I then walked into this audition with puke down my front,
20:48smelling of whisky and vomit.
20:51And then had to. It could change.
20:53And honestly, it was so bad.
20:54And then I had to, we were, honestly, like,
20:57the most comedy small room you've ever been.
20:59There was, like, seven people in this tiny room,
21:01and I stink, and I had to sing this song that I can't sing.
21:04LAUGHTER
21:05And I couldn't sing it, I really couldn't sing it,
21:07but directors just kept going, ah, nah, let's go get it, let's do it.
21:10You want to do it one more time?
21:11No. Honestly, no, I don't.
21:13LAUGHTER
21:14And I can't keep doing it, and this is a living nightmare.
21:17Um, and I kept, they made, I think I did it three times,
21:19and then that was it, and I never heard from them.
21:22LAUGHTER
21:24Well, you're going to be great on Saturday.
21:27Thank you. Jimmy, you are magnificent.
21:29Do you have advice for a monologue, or what, what's the key?
21:33You know, you don't have to take my advice,
21:35but I've done a lot of comedy, I've done a lot of, kind of, jokes on stage.
21:39I would buy a quarter bottle of Jameson.
21:42LAUGHTER
21:46Right before...
21:47APPLAUSE
21:50When you're watching TV, you can't smell, so...
21:52That's a good point, that's a good point, yeah.
21:54I think that's what Tina Fey does.
21:55Yeah, definitely, yeah, definitely, yeah.
21:57I got a sniff of her, it was...
21:58Yeah.
22:00LAUGHTER
22:00I didn't...
22:01LAUGHTER
22:03OK.
22:04You're hosting Saturday Night Live tomorrow night, Sky One, 10pm.
22:09APPLAUSE
22:15Chasing Timothy, you're here to talk to us about The Testament.
22:19Yes.
22:19Which is unbelievable.
22:21I cannot say this enough.
22:23They sent me one and they said,
22:25that'll do you, and I had to phone and beg.
22:27It's after The Handmaid's Tale.
22:29Yeah.
22:29It's the sequel, it's five years later.
22:31It's about, like, three to four years later,
22:34after the final season of The Handmaid's Tale, yeah.
22:36I like that already people are like...
22:39LAUGHTER
22:39It's nice and dark and meaty.
22:42Yeah, I saw The Handmaid's Tale.
22:43It wasn't as funny as I thought it was going to be.
22:45LAUGHTER
22:46Um, let's have a taste, if you will, of The Testament.
22:50I believed in this world once.
22:52It's easier to accept a story
22:54than believe that the people around you are monsters.
22:57We gather here tonight
22:59to bring women back to their rightful place.
23:03Blessed be the fruit.
23:10It was time for us to change things.
23:12CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
23:14It's so crazy to see it.
23:16Did you know too much of it?
23:17Well, I have, but, like,
23:19you know when you just don't realise,
23:20you're like,
23:20oh, my God, that's, like,
23:21that's something that I made,
23:22and it's really cool getting to see it.
23:24Yeah, yeah.
23:25It is unbelievable.
23:27Tell people a bit about the premise
23:29and who you play.
23:30OK, so I play a character named Agnes Mackenzie,
23:33and it's kind of a coming-of-age story in Gilead.
23:35So The Handmaid's Tale was sold
23:37from the perspective of a handmaid,
23:38but this follows a group of girls
23:41who are the daughters of high-ranking commanders,
23:43so you're kind of seeing the nobility,
23:45in a sense, going to school
23:46and training to become wives in Gilead.
23:50So you're kind of having that new perspective
23:52around a 14-year-old girl, so...
23:54And it's Margaret Atwood,
23:55and it's quite dark.
23:57A lot of it is really dark.
23:59How do you come out of that,
24:02if that's not a weird question?
24:04It's not a weird question,
24:05but, like, I feel very grateful
24:06because our entire cast and crew
24:08was so, so sweet,
24:10where you felt very supported the entire time.
24:12So even if you had an unexpectedly difficult day
24:15with the material on set,
24:17you felt...
24:17You felt like you were, um...
24:19You were cared for in a way.
24:21And I really am...
24:22I owe a lot of my hard days
24:23to my entire cast and crew
24:25because we really had each other
24:27on those dark moments.
24:28I mean, Jamie, you played a real baddie.
24:32I have, yeah.
24:32In the fall.
24:34How did you do that and then go,
24:35yeah, I'm going to make some pasta now,
24:38or however it works.
24:39I just honestly think you need, like,
24:41levity in those moments
24:42because it's just not a healthy place
24:45to keep your head.
24:46I'd talk about, like, crisps or something.
24:49I'd say, like, I could talk about crisps all day.
24:52So could I.
24:53I honestly do think, take after take,
24:56coming at it totally fresh
24:58is a better energy, I personally find.
25:01And we've been talking about hula hoops
25:03for five minutes.
25:04Beef, obviously.
25:05Obviously.
25:06Obviously.
25:07Just have to say that out loud.
25:08Yeah.
25:09We usually have about 48 packets
25:11at any point in my house.
25:13Yeah, same as me.
25:14Do you?
25:15I'm just...
25:16And then we'll go back.
25:17I promise.
25:17Don't panic.
25:18Chase's agent is like,
25:20get her out of there.
25:21Have you tried the large hoop?
25:24Not as big a fan of it.
25:26Yeah.
25:26Too much.
25:27No.
25:28Never.
25:29What's happened?
25:30I just...
25:30I don't know where Margaret Atwood stands
25:34on the hula hoop, but we were...
25:37We were on that.
25:38So maybe...
25:40Just...
25:41Get back in?
25:41Just a modicum of professionalism.
25:44I'm so sorry.
25:46He said crisps.
25:47I went with it.
25:49With the hula hoops, the toy?
25:51No, the crisps.
25:53The chip.
25:53I don't know what you're talking about.
25:54Fine.
25:54I'm sorry.
25:55We'll move on.
25:57So.
25:58The Testaments is available on Disney Plus from April the 8th.

26:19When you went for the audition, they asked you to get quite close to Leonardo DiCaprio, didn't they?
26:25Yeah, they...
26:26I know exactly where this is going.
26:29Yes, definitely.
26:30My first camera test that I had, I was asked to shave his face.
26:36And I didn't know what I was doing.
26:38And I was shaking the entire time because it was with an electric razor.
26:41And I was like, I don't know what I'm doing.

30:20Search your car sometimes every

30:31I took something
30:33Did they do that to every no
30:37Why I don't know
30:40You can tell us was it because you stole someone's French boyfriend
30:46Yeah

30:54at the end?
30:58I did at the end
31:00I did I took the rings I took Phoebe's rings is that is that because out of everything because I
31:06think

31:15The cookie jar that was on Monica's refrigerator
31:19Well, yes, it is nice. Yeah, it's really sweet your character

31:32Just to illuminate
31:34Okay to our audience if you are called Phoebe, please stand up
31:39What?
31:53I hope Nicole Kidman's watching this
31:58You've got one
32:02Wow, thank you so much Lisa, thank you
32:08Okay, Jimmy the time has come to talk about your show which is I feel like I've won a competition
32:14to be here. I'm quite happy not
32:18This is lovely last one laughing it was the biggest hit of last year and it is was it or
32:24was it the traitors? No
32:33No
32:34No, we can arm wrestle I'm obsessed by your show
32:37Let's discuss it before we have a clip tell everybody the premise so the premise is
32:42We get ten comedians. They're all very funny
32:45They go into a house and they're allowed to try and make each other laugh and they're not allowed to
32:50laugh
32:50It's it's that it's that simple and somehow it works
32:55It's a perfect lineup before they come in you know them all really well
33:00Do you say to Roisin do you say to anybody going this person's gonna smash it and do people surprise
33:06you?
33:06Yeah, I was very I was surprised people did people take it so seriously and everyone gets weirdly competitive about
33:13well
33:14No, we're here. We might as well win it
33:15Yeah, and then you're you're performing these guys are doing bits on stage and they're giving it there all to
33:22be funny and just 11
33:24people are just
33:27Stony-faced just nothing it's killing them inside. Can we have a clip?
33:32This is David Mitchell's Joker which gone before we show it
33:35I mean, this is so David Mitchell is like I mean, he's a wonderfully funny comedic actor, but also like
33:41a serious actor
33:42Yeah, he's a serious guy. I mean he writes columns in the papers. He's he's a dear friend. He's quite
33:47the tone. This blew my mind
33:48I mean, maybe this is how you were thinking of David Mitchell. This is not how I see him at
33:55all
33:55This is David Mitchell's Joker
33:57You've read it in a folio or seen in a Shakespeare play
34:02How Juliet fell for Romeo in the merry month of May
34:05And as he climbed the orchard wall to reach his lady fair
34:10As he stumbled she began to bawl as he traveled through the air
34:15Oh dear, flashbang wallop, what a picture, what a picture
34:19What a funny girl, poor young cat, why now you spend tights all torn and his rabia band clap hands
34:25Stabbing your feet, banging on the big bass drum
34:29What a picture, what a picture, rum tiddly hum pum pum pum pum pum
34:33Stabbing your feet, you're in your family
34:34Oh bum
34:37He's amazing
34:38He's amazing
34:39I mean, he's amazing
34:44Talking through the psychology of that which you touched on before is
34:48These are the funniest people in the land
34:52And nobody's lot, everyone's like that
34:55And they come out
34:57David does something like that
34:58There are others
34:59People just go
35:00Yeah, well done
35:01What is that?
35:02What?
35:03Yeah, they're dying inside
35:05And that's why it's like
35:06I think it's I think the reason it's a here is kind of
35:08It's people everyone's experienced that
35:10Yeah
35:11Whether it's a family funeral
35:18A nativity play anywhere that I think I shouldn't be making jokes and laughing
35:21That's when I want to laugh
35:23And I've got I can never hide it
35:25No
35:25Because I have the audit
35:26I've got a weird laugh
35:28I laugh on an in not an out
35:29So instead of laughing like ha ha
35:31I know I laugh on a ha ha ha ha ha ha
35:34Mmm
35:36It's not great
35:37Could you do it?
35:39What this?
35:39Yeah
35:40Could you?
35:41You'd
35:42I think I think I could
35:44I've got my game plan
35:45I know what I would do
35:46Because they all get to do a performance piece
35:48Yeah
35:48And I would just wear what I normally wear
35:51Normally three-piece and a tie
35:53And I would just full magic mic
35:57Full Monty it
35:59And just
35:59And grind
36:03And lots of eye contact
36:05Super sexy
36:06Yeah
36:09Is there anyone
36:10Anyone
36:10You've mentioned David
36:11Anyone else that you were impressed by
36:13Because I imagine for the
36:15We don't know who's won
36:16I'm not giving any spoilers out
36:17Bob Mortimer walks in
36:19And you go
36:20All right, never mind
36:21I can't do it
36:22Is he the only one that has come back from the first series?
36:25Yeah, he's the only one still alive
36:29Have you seen Final Destination?
36:31A weird thing happened with our cast
36:34They're all gone
36:36No, he came back to defend his title
36:38So that was kind of fun
36:39And he
36:40Romesh's face
36:42Because Bob went in last
36:43Yeah
36:43And Romesh's face just
36:45Drops
36:45I mean, I say drops
36:46Drops further
36:50He always looks pretty grumpy
36:51But he's like
36:52Oh
36:52Extra grump
36:54It's an awful lot of fun
36:55And it does feel like
36:56You know
36:57The right show for now
36:59Because
37:00I don't know
37:01The world's
37:02In turmoil
37:03You know the guy that used to present
37:05You probably saw it
37:06You know The Apprentice in the States
37:07Mm-hmm
37:08There was a
37:09There's a guy called Donald Trump
37:11Used to present that
37:11And he's now got a new show
37:13Oh
37:14It's called The News
37:16It is fucking terrifying
37:19I like The Apprentice
37:21So I'm going to try the new one
37:31So people can watch Last One Laughing on Prime Video
37:34Available now
37:35Correct
37:36Jimmy, here's the thing
37:37You've started making whiskey
37:39Yeah, I've got a weird whiskey company
37:42Go on
37:42With some friends
37:44There's
37:44So there's a town outside
37:45Um
37:46Derry called Muff
37:48And so
37:52Please
37:54Get your minds out of the gutter
37:55It's
37:57You know Muff?
37:58I didn't
37:58Because I thought you were a big meat guy
38:03So I
38:04I own the Muff Liquor Company
38:09It only gets weirder
38:10It's like me and Russell Crowe and Ed Sheeran
38:12I own a whiskey, gin and vodka company
38:15Called Muff Liquor
38:18It was recently
38:19And this is
38:19This is a fun fact
38:21It was recently brought to my attention
38:23That that is actually a double entendre
38:26So watch out for that
38:28So watch out for that
38:30You are still on tour
38:32You're going all over the world
38:34How many countries?
38:3548
38:3548?
38:37What?
38:37Yeah, I think 48 countries
38:39Yeah
38:39I'm just doing sort of Australia, New Zealand
38:41At the moment
38:41I think Canada later in the year
38:43Yeah, it's a lot
38:44It is a lot
38:45It's a lot
38:46But you've got to remember
38:46I've got young kids
38:47So it's nice to be away
38:53Jimmy, where can we get tickets for your talk?
38:55I've got a website
38:56You could go to that
38:57I guess
38:57People will figure it out
39:01I think
39:02If you're not
39:03If you're not smart enough
39:04To figure out where to get tickets
39:05I don't want you on my show
39:14We're nearing the end
39:15But before we go
39:16Jimmy
39:17You've become an advice guru
39:19When you say you've put a lot out there
39:21The crowd work is exceptional
39:24My kids are like
39:25If I have a problem
39:25Can you ask Jimmy?
39:27I was like
39:28That's super weird
39:29But you
39:30I also do know your kids quite well
39:32I know
39:33So that's weird
39:34Yeah
39:35But how
39:36How did that start?
39:38People ask questions
39:39As a comedian
39:40I think you
39:41If you think about
39:42Who's your best friend in the world
39:43I'll tell you who your best friend in the world is
39:44It's the person you have the least filter
39:47Right
39:47If you sit next to someone on a plane
39:49And go
39:49Oh the weather
39:50It's been cold hasn't it
39:51It's like
39:51That's a lot of filter
39:52Right
39:53And if it's like your best friend in the world
39:54You go
39:55Oh my god
39:55You have to see these hemorrhoids
39:59Seriously
40:00It's like a bunch of grapes
40:01Like
40:01That
40:02That
40:03Zero filter
40:04If you treat an audience
40:05As if you have no filter with them
40:07Then people open up
40:09Audience
40:09Would you like to feel involved?
40:11Yeah
40:12Would you
40:13Would we like some advice from Jimmy?
40:15Yeah
40:16I think we would too
40:18Okay
40:18Yes
40:19Here we go
40:20Go on Don
40:20Hi
40:21Yeah
40:21I'm Phoebe
40:24One of many
40:25It's like Spartacus
40:26I know
40:27It was like me and my army
40:28When I stood up
40:29It was great
40:31My question is
40:32My question is
40:33I want to tell people
40:34When they're being annoying
40:36To help them be less annoying
40:38But then I look like a bitch
40:42So what's the best way to handle this?
40:45When you say people
40:48How many people are we talking about?
40:49I mean
40:50I mean it happens every day
40:51Like there's a lot of
40:52There's a lot of people I would like
40:53To tell that to
40:56Well the adage would be
40:58If you meet three arseholes before noon
41:00You're the arsehole
41:01Oh
41:11It's tough love
41:14I didn't know
41:15I didn't know it was going to go this way
41:19Would you like a gentler piece of advice?
41:22No it's alright
41:25I think you've learned something
41:28Me too
41:29And that's what life's about
41:33I mainly do dick jokes
41:35Okay
41:36No I like this Jimmy as well
41:38Wow
41:39What do you do?
41:40I feel like I should
41:41What do you do?
41:42My best
41:43Oh
41:45That's right
41:46That's right
41:47Thank you
41:53Alright what
41:53What do you do for living?
41:55I'm training to be a therapist
41:59I mean
42:02I mean
42:03I'm not sure if it's the job for you
42:09I love Chase's face throughout all of that
42:12And then I believe we have
42:14Phoebe number two
42:16Yes?
42:17Are you also Phoebe?
42:18Hello
42:18Hello I'm also Phoebe
42:20Yay
42:21I'm dating at the moment and I'm just wondering how can I figure out the difference between a red flag
42:25and just a floor
42:28Oh that's a good question
42:30Do you like the guy?
42:31This is just sort of in general
42:34In general red flags
42:35Yeah and like
42:36And sort of like icky things
42:38And like so I've got a specific example if it helps
42:41Yes
42:41Yes
42:42Yeah
42:42Men who
42:45Specifically only grow an underbeard
42:48Oh
42:49That's the worst
42:50Thank you
42:50Thank you
42:51What is that?
42:52Thank you
42:54It's just hair here
42:56Oh like Lincoln?
42:57Yeah
42:58Yeah
42:58Yeah
42:58Okay
42:59Or they just have like the sort of the straps like a helmet strap
43:02Yeah
43:03Oh yeah
43:04Okay
43:05I think I might have the answer for this
43:07Go ahead
43:08Tell him
43:09I think if you just are open and you go hey I don't like that that's gotta go
43:14But he should know that
43:15LAUGHTER
43:18But then
43:19How much
43:21Like
43:22There's no
43:23Like
43:23He's not
43:24Yeah but you're Jamie Donovan
43:26He said the same thing as everything
43:27Like he's not
43:27There's not articles in magazines going this is a great look
43:32No one's telling him to do it
43:34Like
43:34No offence but you're an Adonis
43:39Yeah but
43:39This is just the
43:40I'd look worse if I had a half beard
43:42Maybe not
43:43You would still turn heads
43:47I don't know
43:48I think
43:48I think tell him
