Y comedïwr o Sir Gâr, Elis James, sy'n edrych trwy 'Lygaid y Byd' ar Gymru yn ei sioe gomedi // Tonight Elis James looks at life in Wales through the 'Eyes of the World' in his stand up show. - S4C • 28/12 - 21:30

It's the end of the series (but there will be bonus audio podcasts from the Great Yorkshire Fringe next week) and Richard is frankly astonished by the popularity of his final guest, given he has to literally check his name on a pad before introducing him, it's Elis James. Rich makes the Welshman feel at home by talking to him in his own language before discussing the famous people who've come from Carmarthen and the impact of the bridge over Blue Street. They compete to discover the worst hotel in Swansea and Elis wins by a toothbrush. Also find out how James' act has been ruined by Welsh football success, what we thought of the Ghostbusters controversy (I know that was a long time ago now) and who will have the funniest comedy hybrid child. And who is more oppressed, the Welsh or women? Or Welsh women? Plus Richard's attempt to get involved with Elis' next sitcom backfires spectacularly, but at least he has his awards speech all ready now.

The Duke of Wellington when he realised, or heard, that Napoleon was in exile, he apparently did the Flamenco dance. So, he’d be like... “That’s the best news I’ve heard all day! Thrilled to bits!”

A sneak peek of Elis and John on Drunk History.

Rhacs Jibiders - Elis’ 1st stand-up show entirely in Welsh, is now available on the iPlayer. And don’t worry, English subtitles are available!

The pilot episode will be recorded at the BBC Radio Theatre on Saturday 17th October. You can go here to apply for tickets to the recording!
