I’ve been a Slim fan for over 20 years and I’m so happy to see him finally perform on a show like this one. Well done slim.
Slim is so under rated. The best comic out on the black comedy circuit.
First time hearing about him but he smashed it. I'm gunna youtube his name now lol.

Slim is my absolute favourite comedian. Too funny 🤣
When I was little I used to play a bus game with my sisters where I had to drive them around the house and arrive on time to pick them up or drop them off. Since then I have always appreciated the efforts of drivers, cab or bus.
Having watched a bunch of his stuff, he held back way more than he needed to. He's so much funnier when he's being full-on.

Yea, he usually performs to predominantly black audiences but this audience was different so he had to adapt his delivery.
Slim is a legend 😂
i saw this last night on sky one never laughed so hard in my life
This brother should be on mainstream TV. He cracks me up LOL The brother is a legend. Where are the black representatives for black talent ?

I remember that joke I'm glad you still doing your thing for the people who have been sleeping on your talent
The birthday got me.
I've heard him mentioned as one of the best a few times off good comedians but my first encounter and he's an immediate favourite! He deserves MASSIVE recognition!! Respect to Russell as always.. a gent and a scholar ha
One if my favs. Loved finally seeing him on my telly. Smashed it as usual
Small child:mildly annoys slim Slim:gives brain hemerage Everyone:That is the law of equivalent exchange

Nice to see Slim get some mainstream attention real humble bredda

I don't get when the rules changed and adults gave their seat up for kids. When I was a kid, you had to give your seat up for an elder.

The rules haven't changed. As a "kid", I can confirm that none of us care whether we are sitting or standing. I certainly dont want or expect you to give up your seat. Its first come first serve. Youth-bashing is toxic. Stop judging us all with your narrowminded bias and perhaps we might reciprocate with some respect

Michelle Schu-blacka and there we go with the name calling. How mature. As I said, I wouldn’t want you to give up your seat and I don’t know anybody else that would. It’s all well and good expecting respect from the youth but it works both ways. You don’t just earn it by proxy. The irony is that the most entitled are the elderly, not the kids
Amazing Comic, super funny

He had to water himself down for this audience lol..

Never seen this dude before.. But can't help knowing with proper crowd (without masks) so he could vibe from reactions this would have been piss funny. . He would hVe bounced from the audience. Due the the atmosphere... This clip barly got a raised smile 😏 STAND UP TELL THE GOVERNMENT TO F📴. 🦁🦁🦁
I don’t want that punani ! 😂
In Ireland, everyone thanks the bus driver. I got weird looks when I did it in London.
Hello friends
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can't lie whenever I'm on a bus journey and I'm about to pay for my bus dayrider, sometimes I just put down the money and expect the driver to know what ticket I need 😂🤣
Honestly thought it was doc brown from the thumbnail
Those that don't find slim funny are not acknowledging the joke is about real life u just wanna see it as an act its real looool. Skin colour
I'm a postie. Everyday I sing "wade in the water"...we are a hated section of society.

Slim was basic
Have to say, I found this to be a wasted opportunity. He came across and angry and bitter, never a good approach for getting people to laugh. I thought it was a real shame, there is no point in a performance just repeatedly saying in differing ways that young people used to be more respectful than they are now - your audience is likely to largely be young adults, how I they meant to take that telling off.
