I miss Karl on the TV but totally understand why he stepped back. He’s a regular guy. All the very best to Karl and Susanne.

Karl doesn't know that there are probably thousands of people listening the old xfm shows and/or re-watching an idiot abroad on a daily basis. Karl is a big part of many people's lives.

Karl is a genius. The anologies he comes up with on the spot are actually quite profound. The assumption that Ricky and Stephen are more intelligent is only because of their more varied vocabulary. Karl is so quick witted.

I love and respect Karl. He got in, did his thing, and left on a “high.” More entertainers should do this. Brilliant.

[Flammper]

I can just hear Ricky laughing hysterically at everything he says while watching this 🤣

Ohhhh. .how I miss karl in my life! He single handedly got me through the worst time in my life. Literally the only thing that could make me laugh.
Forever grateful Karl❤

Crazy how much he's changed. He looked lost when he was 30, now he looks confident. Crazy what can happen to you over the years.

"Karl, what's the plural of a mongoose?"
"Mongs..."

[manxpuss]

Gotta love Karl. Would love to see him back on screen but wish him all the best.

[DmacDomage]

He's not an idiot at all. His back reference to getting his name wrong at about 5:38 shows that Karl has a capacity to hide "comic bombs" inside an interview. There are few a funny a human being than Karl Pilkington.

grateful I lived a life where xfm and Karl were a part of it

[RayTheomo]

Pinkleton. I always love rewatching old plinklton clips. Never get enough of the ol Dilkington😂

[TheVeiledCollective]

You've said it 3 different ways, I don't know how you've managed it 😂

[moaningpheromones]

I love Carl Dildingman. He's a riot.

[cloudymatch]

He is overthinking so much. People absolutely love this guy.

I hope RSK knows that they have made a lot of people happy with their stuff over the years. Karl's right, the people want the nostalgia kick and it won't be as good as the radio and podcast days because of the culture today. But I still wouldn't mind seeing them together in an odd picture one of these days.

[DrVonChilla]

Mr. K. Dilkington is as ABSOLUTE LEGEND. God Bless Him in his withdrawal from the world. 😄

[darrenj.griffiths]

I love Karl Pilkington... I think he's great

[Gallo_.]

Its ironic that Lorraine agrees that we are given too much news.
