Except Celtic isn't Scottish, it's Irish. It was started by Irish immigrants who came over during the potato famine and didn't want to support the existing, Scottish teams so created their own, Irish teams, instead. The entire point of Celtic is that it's not Scottish. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been created in the first place. The real Scottish club would probably be Rangers or Hearts.
During the 'Africa' part, I was initially laughing, then thought it was serious and felt guilty and finally got to breathe a sigh of relief at the punchline
I'm african myself and i ve never trusted in such appeals as these precisely because of the '' africa'' thing. It s too vague and too big and also offensive. Africa is a huge continent with dozens of countries, each with its different situations. So those generic pictures of suffering and the vague labeling always felt like a scam to me. Why not name a country in need, instead of the evasiveness. Fishy if you ask me
@@salwaaj1356 I would assume it's because the vast majority of the target audience know absolutely nothing about Africa. I like to refer to Egypt as Africa just to confuse people. Mention the great pyramids of Africa and people get a bit confused.
@@salwaaj1356 Indeed, also the money doesn't really help. Africa is a huge continent rich in land and resources and it's perfectly capable of producing its own wealth. What many African nations need is stable, uncorrupt governance and the rule of law in order to foster economic activity and investment. Don't get me wrong, funding a well in some poor village does help some people. But ideally these countries should be building their own infrastructure. The question has to be asked why their governments are not building wells, roads, power grids etc. Where is all the money going. And if they don't have the money to begin with... you have to ask why the societies they govern are not producing it. It's almost always down to bad policy and corruption. Charity cannot fix that, at best it just patches over a few leaks.
Holy shit... is that Harry Partridge animation at the end teaser there?!!! I'm about to do a groupie squeal!! Here it goes... EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
i dont know, i used to work with a Celtic fan and he used to ask me to make sure i reffered to Queens Park Rangers as QPR and not rangers. I assumed it was to do with the 'old firm' thing. But the shakespearean refference is a lot more Mithcell and Webb. Thanks for the seond pair of eyes.
At the end of the tiny office sketch, David's face got dangerously close to that cake... all it would have taken was someone to open that door and he would have gotten a chocolate facial.
No. It's not a reference _to_ Blackadder, it shares the same reference _as_ Blackadder. Namely, the superstition among some theatre people that Macbeth is a cursed play and as such, saying it by name in the theatre will bring bad luck. In Blackadder it was used as a device for Edmund to mess with actors who took the superstition seriously. But here it's used as one of the gags that comes from a sketch about crossing football with theatre.
Three years after this comment HB was legally put in the public domain. I dont know if the court battles at the time affected the ability of MaW to use HB or they just said fuck it and paid the royalties tho.
@@PointsofData It actually turned out that the claim to the copyright by it's then holder was invalid and the song had actually been in the public domain since the 1920's. As part of the lawsuit the ex-copyright holders were to pay a settlement of over 14 million dollars to those who had previously licensed the song. So if MaW (or by extension the BBC) did pay the royalties it's likely they got those (partially) refunded.
So 6 people of 341 hates Coldplay so much that they couldn't even hear the jokes, because of the steam rushing out of their ears? Thank god there are only 6 people like that. But seriously, I'm not a big Coldplay fan myself, but it's a good song.

Even in a comedy sketch, David in a football shirt is just WRONG on every level
Yeah. Not to mention the dichotomy btw makeup room atmosphere and the sports shirts
"The Scottish Club"
haha, fantastic!
I honestly wouldn't have understood one bit of that sketch without that rosetta stone of a gag.
"The Scottish Club" brilliant

The first one is quite true.
"Give just 10 pounds and what the hell do you think that's going to achieve ? " 10 pounds, for god's sake!" lool
love the whispering ^^
anyone else notice he says he's 36, his cake says 38 and his badge says 40? Poor guy.
He's going to die at 76, so he's still 40 years young.
Brilliant, love this :)
"I'm actually 36" Still wears 40 badge regardless.
He's going to die at 76, so he's still 40 years young.
Thanks bro!

"The Scottish Club." XD
Trouble by Coldplay. From the album Parachutes.
i wish footballers were like this...
The Scottish club XD
I never even heard of that despicable stain on the map but HOORAY FOR DARLINGTON!
"Wanker."
Good Atkinson, they are brilliant. xD
Both the Blackadder episode and this sketch are a reference to a long-standing acting suspicion about Macbeth
Which bit in here refers to MacBeth?
@@andrewa9694 "The Scottish Club"
it's an encore.
Did anyone else notice that David's shirt had an ad for Cleanlinol on it?
If only Robert's had had an ad for Godlinol
Next to Godlinol
@@oliverholmes-gunning5372 Nah, it’d be probably for diddldidi...
Reader's Digest "Into the Unknown"
Much better than newspaper or litterbin
It is, they used it in a "Get me henimore" Sketch
8:26. best reaction ever!
8:25 sent me, that scream is hilarious
Anyone else notice the 'cleanlinol' advert on david mitchell's football shirt?
Hooray indeed. Nice and woody too, isn't it. Daaaarrlington.
DarLING TIN...tinny!
@Alfalotter Yes! And you can find it next to Godlinol!
They do when talking about the Stockton to Darlington railway
Watching David Mitchell at 2:30 with long hair.... I think he would make a good Lord Of The Rings character in The Hobbit
Holy shit... is that Harry Partridge animation at the end teaser there?!!! I'm about to do a groupie squeal!! Here it goes...
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
@Greenless001 That "Recorded laughter" is a studio audience. It's isn't just edited in later like your are kinda implying.
the interior of the church hall sketch is the same set they filmed horrible histories in!!!
Happy birthday to your legs!
Robert W. Mitchell and John Webb
Harry Partridge animated for them? Nice
i dont know, i used to work with a Celtic fan and he used to ask me to make sure i reffered to Queens Park Rangers as QPR and not rangers. I assumed it was to do with the 'old firm' thing.
But the shakespearean refference is a lot more Mithcell and Webb.
Thanks for the seond pair of eyes.
I wish the footballers were in the main series lol
I forgot the red button existed
sponsored by clenlinol!
@Greenless001 It is later played in to an audience, though.
so where do I click to see the animations?
i think davi m must be a footie fan to be a part of the great scethc
Whao whao whao, one of those animations at the end, was that Harry Partridge!?
I actually worked on the animation so sorry it's not Harry! But I do know him, he's since moved to newsnight .
is that a juventus badge on his shirt?
They are describing tiktok/youtube shorts.
Or just video on demand in general, a little bit.
I'm from Hartlepool and I agree with this comment
Vic Reeves is from Darlington. Well, Leeds first, but then definitely Darlington. GO LEEDS! :D
am I the only one who thinks that painting of the pope looks like David Mitchell in costume?!
Why that would be Stand Up by The Prodigy, from their 2009 album Invaders Must Die.
Anyone know the tune that starts at 10:00?
Calm down darling (ton). See what I did there? Do you? Do you? Validate me!
No, it's probably just the name they chose to use
What book is David reading?
Ours not to reason why, ours but to do and die.
At the end of the tiny office sketch, David's face got dangerously close to that cake... all it would have taken was someone to open that door and he would have gotten a chocolate facial.
Sounds like something you might know about 🤔
I was so sure that sketch was going to conclude with them realising they were now crammed so tight they couldn't open the door to get out!
This is personal i just can only see Jez and mark lol
"the scottish club" is that a Blackadder reference to "the scottish play" skit?

@Greenless001 I think it works well in a sketch show.
@Greenless001 Fair enough.

Sarah Hadland is the most beautiful woman that has ever lived. Marry me, Sarah. Marry me...
The name of the song at 4:17-4:45?
Bit late lol, but it's Trouble by Coldplay
@Greenless001 Have you considered peep show?
that explains the dislikes...
I'm really surprised they sang Happy Birthday. You have to pay a substantial royalty to do that. Most tv shows substitute something else.

look up "the Scottish play"

Kinda hard to hear, but what's the song playing in the background at the very end when they're advertising their cartoon?
Stand Up by The Prodigy. Great song.

4:18
Coldplay!!!
lol, was the "Where's Muhammad" a joke on Muslims?
They are joking about footballers being like actors, and you aren't supposed to say Macbeth in a theatre. You have to call it the Scottish Play.
Ding! That is correct! 10 points.
More comedy = obesity LOL!
240p! LoL!
but you could not see Muhammad
