It really helps that they made the brain surgeon character insufferable, so there's an emotional satisfaction to seeing him one-upped.

Yeah, it's really perfectly made. It's not one where the punch line is hidden from you either, which definitely takes talent to pull off. You can see what happening as soon as the hostess asks Mitchell about the space center, and the way they dance around what we all know before finally delivering the final line is just perfect.

@martinashwoodsmith7674

This sketch maybe unique in the annals of comedy. As others have pointed out, when David Mitchell enters at the end, you can see the punchline coming a mile away. And they deliberately do this. And yet the sketch is still utterly hilarious.

It's just so simple and clever. I think we are all primed to want the loathsome (Webb) blowhard brain-surgeon character to get his ass handed to him.

I dunno, but it just works. Such is the genius of Mitchell and Webb.

@Picnicl

Try the Cake / Broth sketch on Big Train from the mid to late 90s.

@cr10001

14w

Yes. I think it's unique. I can't think of any other sketch or joke where the whole joke hinges on the punchline that everyone knows is coming. In fact the punchline only works because 'rocket science' is a well-known meme for difficulty, and because everyone is expecting exactly that phrase.

Shout out to David Mitchell: you have a devoted Yank fan in Southern California.

The way he says "complex" is exactly how brain surgeons say it.

As a neurosurgeon, I never tell people about my job in face to face settings.

I'm glad I really discovered this show, I've seen the main actors in several other actors and other shows before

That's the beauty of it. For the last ten seconds or so, you KNOW exactly what's the punchline is going to be, and so you take extra satisfaction in actually finally hearing it.

The great thing about the sketch is how shocking and unpredictable the punchline is. I've watched this sketch many times, and it always surprises me!

Let me guess, you are not exactly brain scientist.

Almost as funny as the sketch were these 3 viewer comments in a thread… I am sure the first is almost certainly a 'tongue-in-cheek' job which has achieved an amazing 40 thumbs-up at the time of me writing this… and it is rightly trumped by Ron Rozen's witty rejoinder. But hats off to RyanPazz for a zinger of a line.
I am still laughing now… ten minutes after I first read it. (Dai Woosnam, Grimsby, UK.)

Numberwang's fairly easy once you get used to it. The new edition's got me stumped though. Can't get over how we lost 4.

I love these guys, they're the best in British comedy at the moment. They never fail to cheer me up and make me laugh. They're so genuinely clever and funny

@final_mile_music9713

The timing is just perfect on this. The ‘space centre’ comment is the perfect primer for the punchline to come.

My TAG teacher showed us this a few years ago and I wish I could see her but she’s teaching in Japan now
:(
She was the best teacher ever and I feel bad for anyone that didn’t get to have her as a teacher
