In a recent episode of the popular talk show, Alan Carr: Chatty Man, comedian David Mitchell made quite an impression with his hilarious and opinionated remarks. The Crown Prince of the comedy panel show, Mitchell started off the show with a round of applause from the audience.
As the interview began, Carr offered Mitchell a drink, presenting him with options like Bacardi Breeze and Iron Brew vodka. Mitchell quickly dismissed the latter, calling it “disgusting.” It seems Mitchell’s beard has its own snack in mind – the Bombay mix.
Carr was quick to ask Mitchell about his ever-changing image, likening him to the Lady Gaga of the comedy world. Mitchell responded with his trademark dry humor, stating that his decision to grow a beard was simply because he had never tried it before. He revealed that having a beard has its downsides, particularly when it comes to eating, as food often gets stuck in it.
The conversation then turned to Mitchell’s annoyance with the early onset of Christmas advertisements. Mitchell expressed his dislike for being constantly reminded about Christmas so far in advance, stating that he’d rather talk about it on the 23rd of December. He humorously claimed that he needed time to do other things before Christmas, or else his life would collapse, citing various contracts he needed to fulfill.
As the interview continued, Carr playfully suggested that Mitchell and his wife, Victoria, could prank call restaurants pretending to be the Beckhams. Mitchell found the idea amusing, acknowledging that although he shares the same first name as David Beckham, he wouldn’t go to the extent of imitating him. Mitchell joked about taking innocent avenues for humor and then promptly shutting them down.
During the show, Mitchell also expressed his disinterest in participating in the dancing segment for Comic Relief, suggesting that the country might withdraw their donations if they were subjected to his dancing. He humorously compared it to asking people in their late 50s to start planning for retirement.
The conversation took a turn to TV shows, with Carr asking Mitchell’s opinion on shows like Downton Abbey and The X Factor. Mitchell professed his liking for Downton Abbey but noted that there were moments that didn’t quite make sense, particularly in relation to how they portrayed the First World War. He humorously commented on the trivial conversations happening downstairs while the war was raging.
In typical Alan Carr fashion, he managed to bring up the controversial new show, Sexbox. Carr mentioned that they had filmed something for the show, although Mitchell seemed a bit confused about the details. The conversation reached its peak when Carr humorously described an unexpected encounter in the green room involving a man in a kimono with a surprising appendage.
