The best of Hignfy series 51

My favorite thing about political criticism these days is how it rarely ever acknowledges one's own side's short-comings. Drives me nuts. The debate would have so much more meaning and credibility, be so much more productive in informing voters, if we just admitted we were human. Doing it the way we've been just seems to always cast a person in the light of a liar, endlessly providing fodder for the opposing side-- a convenient excuse for evading subjects, ensuring they don't actually get discussed. Hence, wonderful shows like HIGNFY. (There. Tied it in so it wasn't so off-topic. Yay. Told you I was nuts.)

Very funny, allegedly

Gyles is a treasure

You left out the bit where ian at the start of s51e09 says " Im loosing my voice, it sounds very odd, and erm, I've brought with me some liquid cocaine..."🤣

'Libel damages £680 million' 🤣🤣😂

Thanks for posting.

Richard Coles is always great fun.

I think the host in EP01 is one of the better, even one of the best hosts this show has had.
Of the men that is...I'm a regular bloke as they say so may favorite is Kirsty.....I can't even miss-spell her name
without feeling like a 13yr old.

You can't use a mobile phone in space folks! If you still believe in NASA and all that,,,,, good luck!

Here's a lovely place name in New Zealand for the ones paying attention 🙂 Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu which is situated in the North Island.

Can anyone explain to me why The Communards (Jimmy Somerville & Richard Coles) dedicated a song on the sleeve notes of their first album to Margaret Thatcher??? This was in 1986, four years before her stint as PM ended.

LovetheReverend...

for some reason I find it hilarious whenever frankie says wolf, it rarely comes up as a word from him yet I always laugh

Oh my gosh Brrrriiinnnnnng

What couple were they speaking about at the start of episode 2?

Confession: I started watching this show because the first episode I accidentally came across had Victoria Mitchell as the host, and I found her incredibly sexy. I decided that day to find everything she's ever done, and then I discovered the brilliance of the show as well as others like WILTY, MTW, Taskmaster, and others. I've been hooked ever since.

Love the show henink is funny

I love Richard cole

Surely a record being broken in space is not a world record

to be fair to victorias optician, he served the porno librarian vibe immaculately. the woman is absolutely delicious in her glasses LOL

Giles is always so freaking funny even though I am diammetrically opposed to nearly all of his political beliefs he always has me in stitches.

I love it when Ian's facade cracks and you can feel his genuine resentment bubbling out.

And KING CHARLES WAS ON THE LIST

Thanks for posting.
