the fact they actually pitched the idea to all three of them ruins the moment, since he acted as if he didn't know the game and jon 'so called' got trapped in that thought, yet, it was pitched, so proving the carrot in a box scene(s) was staged

He always felt like that slightly insane uncle at a family gathering fucking with everyones mind. I mean, at the end of the day it's TV. And with nearly everybody on TV that's pretty clear. There's a clear separation. But Sean simultaniously felt like you're watching TV with that Uncle sitting next to you on a couch. Amazing skill to consistently pull that off.

Brought a tear to my eye jimmy. from sadness not laughter..

"I was sort of in a double act with [Sean]..." Jon Richardson is sitting at home watching and going, "Well, F#¢% me!" 😢🤣

Sean Lock… Although I never met him (I am not even British, never lived in UK) it felt like losing a friend, a close friend. I cried as I had lost a long-standing best friend. I find this baffling. Thank you Jimmy for sharing your feelings 🙏 RiP Sean..

Most of the clips and stuff of 8 out of 10 cats you'll find are with Jon and all of the '..does countdown' ones, but you have to remember that Sean was captain on EOOTC since the start with Jimmy for 18 seasons and it wasn't until season 10 that Jon Richardson joined as team captain.

@@jamesbutler6253 copy pasted from the internet In Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, the clacks are a series of semaphore towers loosely based on the concept of the telegraph. Invented by an artificer named Robert Dearheart, the towers could send messages "at the speed of light" using standardized codes. Three of these codes are of particular import: G: send the message on N: do not log the message U: turn the message around at the end of the line and send it back again When Dearheart's son John died due to an accident while working on a clacks tower, Dearheart inserted John's name into the overhead of the clacks with a "GNU" in front of it as a way to memorialize his son forever (or for at least as long as the clacks are standing.)

I'm impressed how Carr keeps his well-worked-on head above the parapet in such dark times, when your career can be taken in a heartbeat. He keeps things light and doesn't get too political, which at first bothered me. But I understand it's about survival.
