To Liam and Cheryl

'I know it's past his bedtime but is the little fella watching at home? Give him a wave just in case. [Everyone thought he meant baby Bear, until...] 'Hello Niall,' he added.

To Little Mix

Little Mix have three billion views on YouTube. Only two billion of those are people watching you try to do a Jamaican accent Jesy,' he said, referring to when the singer tried and failed to do a Jamaican accent.

To Olly Murs

'That was a controlled blaze by the way. Apparently Olly Murs was in the toilet tweeting about it.' 

About Simon Cowell 

Audience members held up masks of Kim-Jong Un and Jack said: 'Ladies, remember I said we can't wear that evil dictator's mask live on ITV.'

They then held up Simon Cowell's mask and he quipped: 'Much better. Same haircut.'   

To Sam Smith

'If you like Adele songs but find them too upbeat you're in for a treat,' he said

About Paul Cattermole

Jack said: ‘Congratulation Dua Lipa and commiserations to the losers, remember if you don’t win a Brit award tonight you can always buy one on eBay. There ain’t no auction like an S Club auction.’

Jack Whitehall's best gags at the BRITs 

To Liam and Cheryl

'I know it's past his bedtime but is the little fella watching at home? Give him a wave just in case. [Everyone thought he meant baby Bear, until...] 'Hello Niall,' he added.

To Little Mix

Little Mix have three billion views on YouTube. Only two billion of those are people watching you try to do a Jamaican accent Jesy,' he said, referring to when the singer tried and failed to do a Jamaican accent.

To Olly Murs

'That was a controlled blaze by the way. Apparently Olly Murs was in the toilet tweeting about it.' 

About Simon Cowell 

Audience members held up masks of Kim-Jong Un and Jack said: 'Ladies, remember I said we can't wear that evil dictator's mask live on ITV.'

They then held up Simon Cowell's mask and he quipped: 'Much better. Same haircut.'   

To Sam Smith

'If you like Adele songs but find them too upbeat you're in for a treat,' he said

About Paul Cattermole

Jack said: ‘Congratulation Dua Lipa and commiserations to the losers, remember if you don’t win a Brit award tonight you can always buy one on eBay. There ain’t no auction like an S Club auction.’

On Rita and Liam

'ITV hasn't seen that much sexual chemistry since the Trump-Morgan interview'
