Editor's Pick

Once you've sent out your last personal and business messages and taken the umpteenth airplane selfie, it's finally time for some serious YouTube surfing: here are three of our top picks for maximum entertainment

America’s Got Talent - The Mayyas dance crew

James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke with Paul McCartney All has been said about James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke”. And yet the one with Paul McCartney is one of the best, and dare I say, even the best. If you still haven’t seen it, now’s the time to do just that. The two Brits drive around Liverpool, singing along to some of Paul’s greatest hits, like two carefree youngsters. It’s impossible not to join in, even if you don’t know all the lyrics. They visit McCartney’s childhood neighborhood, as well as all the places he and John Lennon wrote about in their songs, before arriving at a local pub, surprising patrons with a live show, to everyone’s utter delight. You’re more than welcome to add to the video’s 66 million views.

Kupa Rashit (“Checkout”) - all the seasons

Not sure I'd manage a whole ATG show, but thankfully YouTube has gone to the trouble of concocting numerous highlights compilations which include many brilliant clips. One of them is of the Lebanese dance crew Mayyas (Mayyas means "the proud gait of the lioness" in Arabic). While Lebanon may not seem like the easiest place to establish an all female dance crew, neither artistically nor financially, choreographer Nadim Cherfan and his dancers have succeeded in developing an enchanting blend of East and West, winning over the ATG judges with a mesmerizing dance routine (and that's as far as I'll go spoiler-wise). I guarantee you'll be watching it on repeat and searching for more Mayyas' clips once you're done - they are simply amazing.

The first three seasons of this Israeli hit TV show have garnered more than 16 million views. Kupa Rashit gets time to whizz by on even the longest flights. The brilliant cast (Noa Koler, Keren Mor, Dov Navon, Amir Shoresh, Yaniv Swissa and Daniel Styopin) 300% delivers the goods in this legendary Israeli sitcom. The writing is superb, the directing brilliant, and the aforementioned actors, utterly hilarious, notably Dov Navon, who plays the obnoxious stingy customer Titinski, to sheer perfection. I particularly enjoyed him in the first episode of the third season (“15 minutes”) but don’t go jumping straight to that one - you’d be missing out. Start from the beginning and enjoy the binge
