The panel game show Argumental ran from 2008-12 on British channel Dave (now called U&Dave). Teams were given a topic to argue the case for, whether they agreed with it or not. See more detail on Comedy.co.uk.

Series 1-3 (2008-10) had the regulars:

  • John Sergeant (Host, chair)
  • Marcus Brigstocke (Captain)
  • Rufus Hound (Captain)

Series 4 (2011-12):

  • Sean Lock (Host, chair)
  • Robert Webb (Captain)
  • Seann Walsh (Captain)

Jimmy Carr was one of the 3 comics to make 6 appearances, across all series, and the other two were Sean Lock and Mark Watson.

Jimmy’s 3rd appearance (see other episodes under this tag) was S3 Ep2, broadcast on February 9th 2010. He was on the red team, with Marcus, and Rufus (blue team) was accompanied by Sarah Millican.

Sarah was arguing as above and Marcus against it

Round2 – Flip Flop

Where each person has to switch their argument the other way, each time John presses his buzzer.

Jimmy – Brits abroad are excellent cultural ambassadors

Rufus – it’s better to live fast and die young

Round3

Marcus – God will not forgive Richard Dawkins

Sarah – God will forgive Richard Dawkins

Round4 – Sexual Fantasies

2 blonde ladies in underwear and high heels are brought on stage

Jimmy – a threesome is better in the imagination than in real life

And then Rufus has to argue the other way

The first video is the infamous “blondes” clip – below it is the full episode.
