    “Ya know what, I didn’t know her.” Craig’s on screen for 2 seconds, steals the segment. Please have him back.
  • @NewMessage
    If there was an Emmy for 'best appearance on another guy's show', he'd win that too.
  • @mxg75
    It's not an interview, it's two comedian friends hanging out in front of a camera and an audience for 10 minutes, and I'm here for it.
  • @kaiasmith5404
    I love that the minute Oliver gets on the show they both giggle for 9 minutes straight
  • @spameranne
    John Oliver letting loose on other late night shows is always a treat :)
  • And sure enough, football fans did end up chanting/singing "LIZZIE'S IN A BOX" at a game lol.
  • This whole segment had me in tears. Even Craig's "You know what? I didn't know her" killed me
  • @Pilot_air_on
    I always like watching John Oliver on other talk shows. He always feels like he’s there to cause trouble
  • @nihilisthetic
    Craig only getting 5 seconds of screen time but proving just by being himself that he needs to be the permanent drummer for Seth 😂
  • The idea of a drunk John Oliver being kicked out of Buckingham Palace for humping the metal knight armors is just hilarious to me
  • "Please don't tell anybody" "I'm going to tell everybody" Lol, John is the best
  • @putrii4450
    "whenever a senior royal dies, I will be here to give it the disrespect it deserves" this is one of the many reasons why you're brilliant, John!!!
  • "The question in their mind is always 'Will they behave?' not 'Why might they not?' There's no introspection..." I really like that and think it could be applied in a lot of contexts
  • Y'know how crazy the queen's funeral was? It nearly caused my PhD defense IN CANADA to be cancelled. It went ahead. Barely. With much administrative begging and pleading. But the pubs were closed afterward. Wtf. Friggin' Brits.
  • @biddnoro2736
    I love Johns wife. Every story he tells of her is just golden.
  • @kaelrsmith
    "Mourning the shocking loss of a 96 year-old woman from natural causes" was my favorite part of that LWT episode. 😂
  • @fredbrewer796
    I can understand the "forced mourning" from when I was stationed in Okinawa when Emperor Hirohito died and we were required to wear dark colors, be quiet etc even as Shinto Monks were dancing in the streets wearing red. Okinawa is technically part of Japan but the native Okinawans suffered greatly through the years under Japanese's rule.

    I’m English and I endorse this message. They still played football in Scotland and there were some hilarious acts of rebellion! Good on ‘em.
