i’d like to ask everyone to refrain from being misogynistic and mean towards mel b in my comments. i would not have put her clip first or in this compilation at all if i knew it would spark such needlessly mean spirited comments. i don’t have anything against her, just thought the clip was funny.

them not teaming up always make me feel like a child of divorce

This dynamic is like when a teacher decides to sit the quiet high achieving student next to the weird disruptive kid thinking that it'll make them behave and it backfires spectacularly

Noel and Richard refusing to ask any relevant questions to the mystery guest gets me every time.

I love Noel's laid-back, almost whimsically giggly persona completely changing to being DEEPLY insulted by the sheer idea of Baby Shark that it makes him the most serious and animated I've ever seen him on this and any show.

No one can heckle with compliments like Ayoade.

" his hairs still wet from the fucking womb " Gets me every time!

8:28 Richard has that “I’ve been bullied harder by more clever people” energy

I’ve seen the “Was it your Mum?” bit a dozen times and it still makes me weep with laughter. 😂😂😂

Oh my god, the face Richard made when Jimmy mentioned Submarine. He just couldn't stifle the smile. Given his usual dry demeanor, he must've been cheering inside at that moment. This warms my heart. You can tell he was so proud and coudn't contain himself.

“These 2 ancient fucks!” Favourite line ever

Richard Ayoade making Mel B's brain explode by eating a banana was one of this show's absolute best moments. Had me on the fucking floor the first time I saw it. That whole episode was like Mel B walked into the wrong show by mistake

I love how Noel did not even HESITATE to lean in to give Richard eskimo kisses

noel being enamoured with richard's slightly off-centre word choices is why i aspire to talk funny forever

it’s “these two ancient fucks” that always gets me crying cause they didn’t do anything but he’s right they just let it happen

It always impresses me just how much Richard can make other comedians laugh.

“Yeah but is it your mum though” is such an accurate impression of that particular style of 2000s secondary school humour.

Richard’s rant is a still one of my favorite bits of all the big fat quizzes. The man is just insane 😂

How has Richard not been given the roll of the doctor. He would absolutely kill it. I would also love to see noel on doctor who as well.

Noel throwing a fit because of his intense dislike of baby shark is perfect

That Malteser thing is the most British thing I've ever seen on a TV show, that "ooh I'll have one" and then parcelling it out for everyone lmao

Accusing Jonathan Ross that he "let bullying happen in the workplace" is an underappreciated moment in Richard's sweets breakdown

“has anyone read the Da Vinci Code?” “Get fucked” 😂😂😂

“You don’t know anything! You were born 20 minutes ago!” I’m gonna integrate that into my vocabulary

if someone stole and ate my tray of malteasers I'd be FUMING

How does Richard absolutely roast Jimmy without sounding mean at all?

the "your mum" moment will always be hilarious to me

"I worked HARD in the morning" always has me rolling

My favorite thing about Mel B being on that show is that she would rather be eating broken glass.

11:50 is perhaps the most fun that they ever had there lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "use me, use me as a premise" epic line

Richard's meltdown remains to be one of the best thing to come out of this show

The iconic tray of sweets meltdown is so amazing

Richard freaked out Mel B better than Eric Andre and that is something to be proud of.

Every time they team up it’s so easy to see that they’re clearly the strongest team at the start, by the midway point they decide to go balls to walls insanity and come out with some of the most insane answers on the show, then by the end they’re both nearly asleep. It’s like watching kids on a sugar high, it’s fantastic.

this was randomly recommended to me. i have never even heard of this show. and i love it so much these two are hilarious little update: i’ve now binge watched almost all full episodes of tbfq on yt and am now falling into an obsession with taskmaster. i cannot be stopped

the "your mum" joke still kills me

Noel’s ensembles are gorgeous - and hilarious - that ruffly New Romantic poetic shirt was amazing. Also, I’ve been watching this for years, and I just noticed that Noel has lovely baby blues.

they are Britain's power couple

mel b bein confused by regular class humour is hilarious.

I love this duo so much

I feel like Noel was underused on IT Crowd. Such a funny guy.

"Every time you laugh, I can't believe that's your laugh." Seriously!

2:03 this whole bit gets me every time

Richard's very funny. I fkn love when he gets mad. "There's blood in my ears now. It's very hard to climb down from this energy"

Lol I’m watching this for the first time, loving Richard’s banter

noel's giggling works so well with a sraight edge partner, morcambe and wise eat your heart out LOL

1:34 This throws me back to film studies, cause we literally studied Submarine in class. It’s a really good film!

“Go’on boy, go’on. Fetch us a point”

I have never seen Jimmy roasted this hard. I laughed so hard at how really good it was xD

Noel and richard are a perfect team

"The F*cking Crow Boy!" 🤣

I tried to play this in the background while trying to be productive and all I can say is...mission failed, we'll get 'em next time 😭

Felt genuinely sorry for Richard when they stole his sweets 😩

Roses are red, Violets are blue, Ghost Toast - Noel Fielding

"It wasn't just that the sex had gone wrong" HAHA lol

12:24 this part kills me EVERY time

Mel was clearly not used to being out gunned by a totally not star struck Geeky Richard

ah yes, glad to see we were all raised by these two :)

The your mum bit is so funny

nice compilation :) i gotta say the substitute teacher bit is one of my favorites, glad to see it on here

Submarine is actually a really good film

Watching Richard's explosive mental pong at each of them, again, made me recapture how damn funny it was. Then, the brief breath, &"comedown," when he takes that cola bottle. Splendid. Noel's random outbursts kill me. 😅

The "your mum" rabbit hole Richard and Noel go down is my favorite. Simple, funny, and effective

I love Richard and Noel 😂😂

If they ever need to replace Statler and Waldorf these two would make pretty good looking Muppets.

Something about Richard interrogating that guy on Jesus is killing me

Morten Harket wants his jacket back! 🤣😂🤣😂

I couldnt belive how funnier Richard is as a person than Moss from IT Crowd when i first saw him on a panel show.

Adam Buxton is a hero of mine, but I can't help laughing when Richard calls him an ancient fuck.

5:27 I don’t know why but Rob throwing sweets over his shoulder is hilarious to me

God this is 1 of the funniest things I've ever watched

This is what happens when the nerd and the goth sit together at the start of the school year

The smug smile Rob has as he's eating Richard's chocolate is the expression of a man who is entirely unaware that he's about to be verbally eviscerated later in the compilation

Someone needs to make tshirts of richard eating a banana

04:30. And the LEGENDARY Meltdown at 12:05. Amazing. 😂👍🎉

0:18 Mel B you come at the king you best not miss.

16:48 I think that's the most genuine laugh I've heard for him omfg

Richard Ayoade and Mel B is the rom-com you never knew you needed. At the start of the film it seems like their differences are insurmountable, but somehow the film takes you on the journey of a lifetime to true love.

These two have made me laugh so hard

19:44 it's like they're eating in class 😂😂😂

Richard Ayoade is incredibly funny. He's like a real-life Sheldon Cooper except not incredibly annoying to watch/listen to.

Noel had me dying at 9:20... that just came out of nowhere XD

I've made a fool of myself, on 2 separate occasions when meeting Noel and Richard. I became a starstruck mumbling fool. They seemed nice.

everything from 8:50 to 9:57 was priceless 👏 I love british humour

This video was almost 30 minutes and I didn’t notice how fast it went!

Shout out to Aisling Bea accidentally dropping chocolate down her shirt...

Rixhard is surprisingly hot, and its the charisma that really clenches it

They have the best dynamic, they really do fit the description of ‘niche corner’ incredibly well. They have the dynamic of longtime friends that end up married but they’ve been together so long that they’re kind of sick of each other but they vibe really well. Like a pair of gay dads/husbands that never get along but just work together. I could just imagine them getting up to all kinds of trouble as like school friends. Which would be a really cool book/show, just the small town’s goth kid and nerdy kid (the kind of nerd that’s into really obscure stuff, probably doesn’t do well in school but could tell you loads about the most random subjects) getting up to all kinds of stuff, like fighting cryptids or solving murders

The " Your Mum" bit kills me every time! 🤣

Just remember if you can't stand Mel b, there is a Mel b-free edit of The big fat quiz of 2015. And the only thing you'll miss is the joke at the very beginning of this particular clip.

Rob Beckett summed up beautifully as the school bully

Chelsea Peretti is sitting in front of a picture of Napoleon. The likeness is striking.

“She was getting the real cheap shit as well” absolutely sent me

thank you for introducing these two to me pookie

Mel B was killing the vibes at the start honestly

I love this show

they are the perfect example of gemini besties

ill be real every month or so I will come back and rewatch this and I get the same dopamine rush everytime :)

This was always me and my best mate sat together in school. The nerdy Art Kid, and me the arty Nerd Kid. Matching each other’s weird energy. Them with the emo hair, sketch book full of really good anime art and carrying around the ukulele they would be playing Green Day and MCR covers on at break time, dressing like a crow at any given opportunity, and me with my impeccable school uniform caring a lot about the quality of my education but hating every bit of it, top of the class but could never finish a test because I was neurodivergent and smart enough that SEN felt me struggling to complete any assignments wasn’t a good enough reason to support me because who needs extra time if you know the answers but can’t finish a test to save your life and consistently underperform despite knowing the content. They were really quite weird, but loved and matched my equally niche energy and understood my jokes that would end in shit like ‘naval policy’. Them recovering from self harm and schizophrenia and never judged by me and my undiagnosed autism and ADHD and my subsequent burnout and depression. We’d talk about politics and Pokémon and music and art and niche comedy and anime and mental illness and our experiences as the queer and trans kids our bad acne making our faces hurt all of the time and listening to other friends freak out about the ONE barely visible spot they had on the weekend that NO ONE EVER EVEN SAW until they realised why we sat in silence making no move to offer condolences. When we met in year 7 I had enamel pins of Pokémon gym badges pinned to the inside of my school blazer above the useful inside pocket and they thought it was cool and showed me their fan art of Cynthia and Garchomp. Good times.

19:05 😂 honestly this has got to be one of the most underrated deliveries. The fact that Roisin just said three shoes like this is normal...and then doubled down.
