I'm rubbish at stuff like that, and if I'd been there I probably could have had a better shot at that with an anecdote.
I don't dislike Joel, he's okay. But how, how is he classed as a "comedian"? None of what he's said in the telegraph has been funny either. Even when he's intended it to be. |

I'd heard his joke before, I don't think it's even his material.

A few episodes ago she was saying something about not seeing ghosts of cavemen or modern figures. That is most definitely a well-known observation that I've seen discussed on the internet or from another source prior to this programme. It may have even been discussed on a panel show or QI or something, struggling to rack my memory, but it was very familiar, including the ghosts with jeans lines, it's not "hers". |

What I found most interesting about that was that his observations on the responses of the campmates in the bush telegraph afterwards were very, very funny - much funnier than the actual stand-up itself.

I thought the bit of his stand up we saw as very good and I'm genuinely bemused that there are people in this thread who didn't find it funny. He's also funny in his pieces to camera. Maybe his humour is wasted on the sort of people who find I'm A Celebrity... entertaining.

Yep, not his material. Can't remember where I heard that joke first, but it definitely wasn't from Joel.

Sorry for not appreciating the pinnacle of humour that is Joel talking about changing the channel on his television.
My sense of humour is obviously not as refined as yours and Adumbs ![]() (It was about changing a DVD to another film with the same actor) |

I've seen Joel live and he was pretty good. But comedy is very subjective so not everyone will find him funny.
