I was already excited about Richard and James causing chaos together but the fact that there is also Ed Gamble is also there is incredibly delightful

That was hilarious especially the end and when Ed said 'if it's invisible how do they know it's hairy' 😂😂😂 amazing

there is literally a big shoe right behind her ...

Really freaky to imagine a body being found in a dry river bed with lungs full of water.

Big shoe sells big issue

aspect ratio is killing me

I've seen it!! It's a magazine being sold by homeless people.

The other foot is small. Killed me. 😂

What’s with the strange noise gate they have on either the laugh track or the live audience?

Sittingbourne in Kent? Lol small world

James and Richard create isane comedic moments together, wow love them both immensely, wish there was more content of the duo

between 2:12 - 2:25 all three pairs are sat in the same way...

You need Ed Byrne with Ed gamble and Rhys James with Richard

You know what they say about men with big shoes... This mythical creature looks like Nessie

Is the Hairy Hand of Dartmoor invisible? That’s a detail I’ve never heard.

@Melissah B No, but I haven’t seen Brazil and I’m sure it’s not invisible!

Have you ever seen it?

I've introduced so many friends to the genius of The Acaster I feel I should be hired as a promotions consultant;)

Took me two years to realize that Chloe wasn't a Matt Lucas character.

The faces 🤣🤣🤣🤦🤦 they make life bearable rn 🤣

sooooooo.. Richard on Off Menu when?

I really like the dynamic between James and Richard. Its very hard to find someone whos on Richards ...vibe...shall we say. Itd be great to see these two in something together.

Matt Lucas looks good in yellow

When they eventually remake the odd couple, I hear rumor even now, here are your leading men.

Think Richard has a touch of the shoe horn

James and Richard are awesome. They should have a show together

Does that laughing track bug anyone else?

Lockdown's got us messed up! "You need to look after yourself and practice self care" okay thanks why am I crying now?

If the hand wasn’t hairy how on Earth would anybody have seen it? Stupid question!

Big shoe is a whole lot funnier when your Scottish and seen the viral vid ...

:30 no Josh the fact is that everyone that "believes" in made up dibble, such as "the invisible hairy hand" or a magic skyman or astrology etc IS A BRAINdead moron in urgent need of composting.

Who was that woman with the mystery river?

@Kate Olivia thanks! I'll go look for more of her, now.

That's Chloe Petts

Ah, James and Richard are both immensely sweet boys.

I lived in kettering from 78 to 86 . I listen ving in denver CO usa . I went to Isebrook school nr Weakstead park .

I love everything about this show except the ‘CLIFF!’ moments. They’re a little bit too forced and cringeworthy. Best moments are definitely with Richard

This sounds like a you problem.

They're supposed to be forced. That's the whole point. It's called a running gag.

There’s only one big shoe. https://youtu.be/oQgkYvkJouw

What’s Honey G doing on this

Who is Ed Gamble's partner here, and did they know they were going to be on television?

The chemistry and appreciation between these two calls for a new format which will have to be the no-format of their chemistry and appreciation.

The James Acaster x Jonathan VanNess crossover I didn't know I needed

It took me a minute to place that he was talking about Queer Eye because the advice to practice self care was ... not really reminiscent of how JVN does it. Still I loved the reference.

he’s truly a treasure😭❤️

He made a queer eye reference and people have just let that slide? He becomes more iconic by the minute!

James and Richard need to cohost a show together.

Any Lovecraft fans thinking of the Ipswich monsters?

Sidhu Vee AND Richard Ayoade? Is there a way to watch the full episode?

I LOVE James and Richard ❤❤❤❤❤

I didn't take to this show when it first came out - wow - have I got a lot of catching up to do. Brilliant.

That's because it's a bad premise for a show. But it will work and we will like it because it has the British comedians we love appearing in it, and honestly, that's all a show really needs to be good.

The television in this country is so foreign and magical. I love the happy chaos

There appears to be some kind of mythical monster in the panel on the right already.

why is this cropped like this?

So far... 7 people don't like joy.

ive never been more personally offended by someone elses haircut

Will Josh please just keep his hands away from his face. I don't know why it bothers me so much but I can't unnotice it 🙈🤦🏼‍♂️

HANDS FACE SPACE

You know what they say about Bigfoot, Big Shoe.

James and Richard can have a regular conversation and make it seem like it's related to the show~

The hell is with this cropping?

I think “Big Shoe” isn’t just a local issue....I often hear homeless people shouting this around the whole country....And they all seem to have a magazine to back up their claims....It’s just usually hidden and coded in music articles and interviews 🤔🤫🤭😏….!x=o}

On further evidence “Big Shoe” may not be national....These homeless people may be claiming it’s slightly smaller than big....So just a “Big-ish Shoe”....!x=o}

is there anything sexier than an ayoade/acaster duo? swooooon.

I want Richard's shirt.

James you are the king of awkward comedy ... Unfortunately Richard is God at it

@Joshua Watts A restlessly working, creative mind with a hint of nervosity & you want to cheer him on for it, whereas Richard radiates an Awkward Calmness that just freaks you out (in a good way).

I feel Richard is funnier in situations whereas James is funnier at stand up. Not that either is bad at the other.. theyre 2 of my absolute favourites.

I honestly feel like Richard is more of a pure awkward, and James is a more "awkward if awkward were awkward at being awkward and so wasn't quite purely awkward because it had a dash of something else as well but no one is quite sure what that other thing is" kind of person.

This show is great.

Who is the one that asked "how did they know it's hairy?" What's his name

Listen to Ed & James podcast ‘off menu’

If you liked him, he and James have a small YouTube series they do called just puddings, where James tries fancy desserts and has to describe them in detail to Ed, who is diabetic. It’s weirdly funny.

Thx guys

Furthermore, Ed Gamble.

Ed Gamble

I am so into Richard’s whole deal in this video— especially his spectacular outfit

I can't believe they got the fourteenth Doctor on the show.

???

@TheMultiGamer huh

From your lips to God's ears.

Wow, that was racist.

“How do they know it’s hairy if it’s invisible?” Where’ve I heard that one before 😉

i cannot express how quickly i clicked on this once i realized it was another james x richard clip

I live on Dartmoor and have never heard of the hairy hand .... I've only heard of the Dartmoor beast :/ could be different parts of the moor tho

I grew up in Plymouth and we learnt about the Hairy Hands at school

@millie whatttt thats so close and i don't even know that! I'm acc embarrassed

I think the hairy hands around postbridge/two bridges

0:37 dating-near.online

Who else is still waiting for James Acaster’s version of the bible from Mock the Week?

🤞 For his book deal!

@m c "beware the wrath of the chocolate vicar of Dibley!" i love nish so much hahahaha

Just us and Nish apparently

Forget about Big hat, small hat - what about Big shoe small shoe?

Thanks, bye

Epic sock game all round

The most awkward combo and I love it

yo why we in the cinema

Why is no one taking about the big shoe literally sat behind them as they’re talking about big shoe

Nah man, that's Tall Shoe. It's different.

@kcolloran Agreed; I was looking for a bigger shoe.

@kcolloran Hi there, BigFoot!!

Those are pretty normal size shoes, mate.

The 90's were a cool time full of weird and big shoes.

Richard and James are a dynamic duo of low-key chaos

@Tliltocatl Albopilosa interesting. Yeah it's not unofficial too. It's uploaded by the Taskmaster official channel in USA. I tried logging on to the channel 4 site before it switched to Dave but the channel 4 site won't let me watch any videos at all because USA. Maybe I should get a VPN so I can get more UK content in my life. You all are just so much better at comedy.

@Ananno Myss You might be surprised to learn that we here in the UK actually can't watch Taskmaster on YouTube! It's odd that you can get it in the States but we can't haha.

Subtle and deceptively intellectual. My two favorite comedians by far. And I'm in the USA. It's not easy getting their content here. Taskmaster is my favorite show ever though which they have up to season 8 on YouTube so I'm blessed with that.

There needs to be more of these two, everywhere.

You guys spelt "high-key" wrong

My favourites ❤️

Is that his shoe in the display jar?

I like scratching things

what a rapscallion!

you cheeky fella you

James Acaster... that is all ❤️

What a babe

James what’s going on with the quality

It's a cropped image, seemingly to hide the TV station's logo.

they filmed this episode in 2002
