Being from America I have no idea who these people are (other than Jimmy Carr) or what the show is, but after having a clip pop up on my YT recommendations I sought out some more Sean Hook videos. The man is a comedy genius! I say IS because after some comments that he has passed his brilliant humour IS still alive for new fans like me. RIP sir and thank you. The gentleman's poem at the end had me crying (literally) with laughter and that was partly due to Sean Hook's reaction. We got the reruns in America of Monty Python back in the early 70's and I own most of what they ever did (including the scripts from the show). Forty years later I am finding this, and I'm having the same feelings of ecstasy and surprise that there are humans THIS funny in the world. It gives me hope. You Brits don't know how lucky you are!

The poem by Joe had Sean laughing like Jimmy and Jimmy laughing normally.

The brilliant thing about Joe's poem, is its a poem about violating the number one rule of the guy code. Which is: "when at the public urinal, thou shalt not look neither to the right, nor to the left, thou shalt only look straight down." Not only does it violate that sacred rule, but it goes so far as to give them a name.

I was waiting for the "What have you been looking into..." clip to show up. Joe of all people losing his composure and attempting to say "the most unnecessary..." through his laugher makes it even funnier. I think I remember Jimmy saying in an interview that early in the series run he wouldn't lay into Suzy since she was seen as a more serious person than the rotating pannel of mostly commedians, but Suzy told him to go for it... and it seems he did.
