Wayne goes fishing

Wayne goes fishing in an unconventional way, instead of using a fishing rod, he just swims out into the loch to grab the ball. Remember this is in Scotland, where its damn cold!
That's how to play the audience! Great set. Although, ELO definitely deserve to be in that list.
In your face XFactor
Depeche Mode should be included in there too.
Never a truer word was said, and for once, it wasn’t us pointing out how good we are
Any other Englishmen out there get choked up hearing that list of artists? Makes you proud of our little island.
Never gets old Brilliant Truth always makes for the best comedy,especially when the delivery is world class 😆😆
100%
Simon Evans, the educated man's comic.
Brain open ?
Probably THE best stand-up comedian in the country at the moment. And has been for some years, now.
Best..... social commentary.....ever
Totally agree But it is good for a soft core wank
Saw him live a couple of years ago. First half was very witty but after the interval he delivered a rather condescending set about how modern society had dumbed down. A key plank of his argument was the "fact" that John Ruskin is now remembered for his inability (or disinclination) to consummate his marriage. A pretty dubious assertion in itself but compounded when he threw out a few nasty insults about Ruskin's wife for making this public. He might've been on thin ice with that line anyway but it got worse as he praised Ruskin as a great intellectual and her as some nonentity who had forever blackened his memory. This was the climax of the show and, in fact, the penultimate date of a long tour using the same material - and in this last 30 minutes he "died the death", and not just as it involved reading and commenting on a long excerpt from John Stuart Mill's 'On Liberty'. I was duty manager at the venue and commiserated over a drink afterwards. He just couldn't understand what went wrong. What went wrong Simon, I explained, is that you didn't know your audience. Ruskin's wife - whose name you affected not to know - was Effie Gray and she was born and raised not three miles from this building. She later married John Everett Millais but was ostracised and decried by Victorian society for exposing Ruskin's shortcomings, though she had begged him for a divorce for nearly ten years. In other words, he'd dissed a local girl who was in fact a very intelligent, brave and determined woman. I think if you're going to put yourself up on stage as an intellectual it behoves you to at least know what - and who - you are talking about. And maybe a little bit about where you are and who you're talking to.
You do realise it was a comedy show don't you? If it wasn't for your obvious dislike for him with quotes such as 'long tour using the same material' and the admission that you didn't even attend as a paying member of the public, then the criticism could at least be taken as a genuine comment. It's a bit like if I were working at a venue where Michael McIntyre was performing. Lots of people like him, but I'd never find anything good to say about him as I can't stand him. If you think Simon Evans is condescending, I suggest you never go and see Lee Mack live.
@@stevewalton3932 People working at venues are allowed opinions. I saw all but the first five minutes of the first half of the show, indeed made a point of sitting at the back because I was interested to see him. And my comment reported facts - he did lose the room, no question about it. He admitted it himself when I had a drink with him afterwards, as I mentioned. Also, it's a undeniably a high risk strategy to set yourself up as an intellectual - not to say arrogant. A bit like your comment.
@@drewcampbell8555 You probably saw the same show as I did. I never said you weren't entitled to an opinion but I reiterate, remember, it was a comedy show. it wasn't a lecture. I've no doubt repeating, in your words 'the same material' unscripted on a long tour, then some facts may change and be moved around slightly. You then note several facts about Ruskin and his relationship with his wife which you could have looked up, and present them as though its a history lesson, in what some might say in an intellectual fashion, and you have the nerve to call me arrogant. One fact you're obviously not aware of. When you start throwing insults, you've lost the argument.
@@stevewalton3932 Hi Steve - You were certainly arrogant enough to ascribe opinions to me I do not have - and you certainly implied that as I was a paid employee my comment should not be taken as "genuine" - a ludicrous point. Moreover, you say I didn't like him - in fact I said the first half of his show was witty, and I when I went for a drink afterwards I found him very personable. As regards the facts about Effie Gray, I didn't have to look them up - they are common knowledge to everyone who lives in this area, her home, hence the audience reaction. Did you not understand that? And Effie Gray is far from an obscure figure. A Hollywood film on her relationships with Ruskin and Millais starred Dakota Fanning and Emma Thompson and Millais' paintings of her, her sisters and local scenery are quite famous. So he died during the last portion of his act that night. Fact. Deal with it.
@@drewcampbell8555 Sorry Drew but for me your arrogance shows through, as with your final comment. I said you presented a list of facts of the history of Ruskin as though it was a lecture which I'm sure most will take as a comment on what is essentially a comedy show, as in an intellectual fashion. If you take a while to read it, my comment on your dislike of him was based on the comment 'penultimate date of a long tour using the same material' I suggest you look up the words 'comedy' and 'tour' Your first comment is a bit like someone saying 'I'm more intellectual that Evans is'. You need to relax more. Good luck with the job.
Simon is a brilliant comic, always been superb love his style, clever guy
The X Factor is finally dead at long last and I’m satisfied by this.
How the fuck did he forget CREAM?!
Cream is always fresh in my eyes.
America you're too far gone :D :D :D

Absolutely bang-on!!
Automatic dislike for any video under 6 minutes. Even though I think Simon is great.
You disliked a video that you enjoyed
Jesus ... great standup but can we do without more Social Justice virtue signalling from Comedians ...
?
@@camokarzi8491 agree.
it's a shame that when he was listing the great british groups he didn't spot kerry katona in the audience and add atomic kitten. Their importance cannot be overstated.
We combined forces and created the ultimate rock group... AC/DC
Bullseye ✊🏼👏🏼 (and Genesis to add to the list)
"His eyes are too close together" - took me a while to get that.
Haha, me too, one year on
@hadz8671 OMG 'sk ii ng'. Literally only just got it! XD
So well observed. Spot on.
Genius
Nancy boi.
See you at the match ...
Simon Evans is hilarious! I'm a huge footie fan, but he couldn'tve been more spot on! Great stuff!
Most football fans are huge mate, just cut out the pies at half time!
that's not very modern. You're supposed to be offended and try to get him cancelled. (I love football, too; it's funy stuff, that's all)
Brilliant!
CLASS
Thanks for sharing! Rotaract needs more support! Greetings from RAC Ilmenau, Germany
Get Steve Hughes on Strictly! btw let me round up great British pop names to to continue his list and school metalheads there is good pop music out there... Shirley Bassey, Petula Clark, Cilla Black, Sandie Shaw, Bryan Johnson, Matt Monro, Tom Jones, Dusty Springfield, Mary Hopkin, Elton John, Billy Ocean, Phil Collins, Paul Young, Kim Wilde, Rick Astley, Annie Lennox, Alison Moyet, George Michael, Seal, Simply Red, Robbie Williams, Dido, some good current British artists include Dua Lipa, CHVRCHES + George Ezra. Adele was good when she started but then she recycled her same songs over and over and got overhyped. About X Factor... First few series were good but then it got over polished and melodramatic, still given us decent acts such as Leona Lewis, Ruth Lorenzo, Alexandra Burke, Lucie Jones, Olly Murs, Rebecca Ferguson + Little Mix. I seem to like the solo material from all One Direction members more since their split too, apparently they wanted to perform some Rock tunes but record label disagreed.
Gary Numan, Depeche Mode, Joy Division, New Order, Sisters of Mercy, Dire Straits, Portishead, Massive Attack, Tricky...
you have shit taste go away
Robbie Williams and Rick Astley in a list like that? Christ.
Olly Murs and Little Mix...dear god.
Brief and crisp!
Title was misleading lol And I'm a bit slow.
1:26 has to be the strangest applause i've ever seen.

+0liverwarren jup thanks, i realised to late. It's also Supertramp not Superchamp lol. I think now it should be right. I wish there were more bands from different countrys but i'm happy i got this list to start :P
+Jawash Asalan dude.. I did the same exact thing. if only I scrolled down to read the comments first lol

This video needs to go viral. Everybody share this on your social networks. #WhatHappenedToBritain
*England
lol wolves in the throne room
That is one hell of résumé of artists of Great Britain.
Not Great Britain.......ENGLAND
And he missed a few as well
No mate from England
Jonathan Martin exactly my problem with you English. When Andy Murray or Gareth Bale are playing well and winning things, their described as great British athletes. But whenever an English athlete or artist or band or comedian etc... starts being successful and praised, they're always described as English. Only want to play the British card when it's beneficial to you
Missed a few, Joy Division, New Order, Blur, Oasis, Doves, Kinks, ,T Rex, Specials...
Absolutely brilliant!!!!!!!
TRUTH!
I miss MSN. =(
She openly admits that she only goes on the TV shows to pay off her massive debts. And to think, 'celebrities' usually go on game shows to raise money for charity...
