I love your videos
Hello
Thank you for your videos, you inspired me and I made a history project using your video style. Thank you!
Hi
Finalmente un nuovo video / finaly a new video. I like this s&it, is gooooooooood
1914: where’s the rest of the platoon? Your standing on it.
1916:Where’s the army? your standing on it
1918: where’s the airforce? Well you see those burning wrecks over there
The RAF was founded on April 1st because they thought it was a joke.
1916: Is… Is that the Navy?
@@joebloggs7514 My italian great grandpa spent three months on the front lines, his stories included walking over bodies because in some sectors there was no clear ground left, everything was covered in dead soldiers.
@@me.ne.frego. then credit to him, I don’t quite know what that has to do with landships arriving on the front line of the western front, but still credit to him for what he did.
@@joebloggs7514 I accidentally replied to you, sorry.
Renting trenches ain't cheap, so do us a favour chaps. Share this video around with your chums, post it until you're banned from your favourite discords. It all helps more than you think, cheers!
Well I would, but most of my chums were the Grimsby chums...
Buy some land and I will come help build all the trenches you want
Roger sir.
But what if its your discord?
Will do, sir ! 😁
Cooper is that guy who reminds the teacher that they forgot to assign homework
I suspect Cooper would have suffered a tragic friendly fire accident
@@weldonwin Or a friendly grenade down the seat of his trousers!
One day a grenade just rolls into his tent...
@@SquireComedy Heroically shot in the back.
I will physically remove cooper from the squad ,over the dam trench cooper hes on tea duty
I got very sad when Cooper died. He was a legend!
He'll be back!
@@SquireComedy he better be or else we will steal your outfits
@@SquireComedy and your guns
Tommy Zombies? 🤔
@@AttiliusRex yes
Wow the quality of props has skyrocketed! Great videos guys!
Cheers, Fran
You almost can't tell anymore that they're made of cardboard!
@@SquireComedy were the SMLEs functioning rifles? It's really cool you guys have actual rifles in the vids
@@neonlovegalaxy saving pvt ryan old squire video yea i remember that
A new squire video, and with perfect timing too. I'm sure this video will brighten my day after such a shitty day at work!
We hope it helped, old chap. Sending our best.
Have you ever milled some lumber with your chainsaw to build a cabin or such? It might just brighten your mood.
"What is this nonsense? Just send the next wave!" the ghost of Douglas Haig.
I tried waving at them, sir, but they are still shooting at me.
These video are flawlessly realistic right down to the firing pin being back when going to shoot himself in the foot
Love it
Cheers mate!
The production quality is brilliant. We Brits always provide the best for our troops. We have the best tactics, equipments and officers 🙂
EDIT: I should be clear that my comment was purely satirical. I was making fun of the pompousness, in the same spirit as Squire. I am a Brit and even I know that our army has made plenty of costly fuckups. I am well aware. I thought it was obvious giving the context of the video
Yeah if it jams it’s just to give the others a chance
@@kestrels-in-the-sky sportsmanship indeed
Nice try Thatcher
Not this again Thatcher, get back in!
Still lost the wars
I love this new ‘Bill psychologically tortures Squire for ten minutes’ genre.
More to come very soon!
1:25 after he shoots and misses his foot his SMLE hammer is de-cocked. Now THAT'S attention to detail.
Glad that's being picked up on! :)
You guys should do more WWI videos, these are always great! Don't get me wrong the WWII ones are great too.
As a historian who is for some reason partial to ww1 as opposed to ww2 (don't know why, maybe its just less Nazi stuff to think about) yes!
Any war would provide great comedic material.
Roman: are you sure we are the good guys.
🙄
@@PaulRudd1941
You mean impartial?
@@VOTE_REFORM_UK Impartial would mean they don't have a preference or bias towards WW1.
@@TheBestGrapefruitGuy
Exactly. Isn’t that what he was trying to say? Why would anyone be partial to WW1 but not WW2? WW1 was much more black and white than WW2 was.
The attention to historical authenticity is certainly awesome! Love the pattern 1914 leather equipment, cool detail there. Just like a modern day Blackadder goes forth! Or, more like “Squire goes over the top!” Excellent video Squire! You and the lads have outdone yourselves! would love to see more WW1 themed skits 😂
Ok
A new Squire video?
I needed those laughs! Thanks for all you guys do! Keep up the hilarious work! I remember the low resolution firearms you guys used before!
Good old cardboard guns, we miss those days.
@@SquireComedy they had a certain charm!
That first 10-15 seconds reminds me a lot of the Blackadder finale, although a lot less tragic
You should do one for the Falklands War… I think your videos are put together really well. Whilst they are satirical, they also maintain a certain level of respect for the trenches of WW1
Nothing like a fresh Squire episode in the morning! (It is actually midnight here but what ever!) Wery well done
Thanks chap!
1:20, unreleased footage of Baldrick providing Melchett with a spare whistle whilst Blackadder looks on in horror.
Melchett was at least 35 miles behind the front. All his orders came via pssshh wrrrr a wandering minstrel... peewooo gale force 8.
What's that you want a table for 7, but the window not too near the band... no, no I think you have the wrong number?
I saw that blonde actor and thought to myself: Finally, he got an haircut and has the decency of looking presentable. Then I saw the officer. With that mustache. God damn it. Never change
It all was part of the brilliant tactical plan of climbing from the war trenches and walking very slowly towards the enemies.
*_"oi mate pass me that mag will ya?"_*

I swear every time I watch squire he just gets better and better amazing video! Keep it up!!
Wow, thanks! We're trying bloody hard.
Ever since you started doing live action vids I always wanted to be in one (being a re-enactor and all) but you guys seem to be doing just fine on your own! Really well done coming from someone who has been watching you from back when all you did was war thunder!!
The work and effort put into these videos is outstanding, i love it.
This is one of the best squire videos
Glad you guys know that rifles have recoil when fired... Netflix's All Quiet On The Western Front managed to miss this.
The result of using CGI muzzle flashes instead of firing blank rounds.
@@thatperformer3879 if that's the one criticism it isn't so bad
@@elijahcaon8094 Its not the only one, but it is there.
Dear Squire - Thank you so much for your content, I've been a huge fan ever since your War Thunder videos 7 years ago! You truly are a master of your craft and we all love you for it!
Brilliant as always Squire!
this is the best video from squire! it has information too and the way its presented is hillarius .greetings from the Czech republic! keep it going!!
Glad you liked it!
Absolute smasher. Well done, lads.
Poor Cooper. No worries about the head wound if he's from Cumbria. Looks and brains never abounded over there. He'll be fine.
Cheers.
It's always a great day when Squire uploads a brand spankin' new video, excellent work as always!
The leap in props & effects from when I first subscribed to now is quite splendid.
Many thanks, Harry.
So happy for this upload. I was missing me some Squire. You two really need to do a Q&A episode though.
Man your videos are just great.
Thank you.
Cooper's actor is funny as hell, hope we see him again
You will!
Absolutely brilliant video, very nice.
Another great video sir squire!
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers matey
New Squire vid! Jolly good
Always a good night when we get a squire upload
Top-notch quality and so very well done, as usual, you the man!
Much appreciated! Hope you're doing well dude!
Fantastic work as always!
You don't realize how much i needed some pointed comedy at this point in the day. My hats off to you're great work.
Cheers, Thomas. Hope you've had a good week!
@@SquireComedy
Oh, everything is just peachy. I am living in a country where nearly half of the people should be in a mental institution. 🙄
So how is it going in your part of the planet ?
production really improved over the days. Nice. Keep going!
Topping video Squire good sir, absolutely spiffing!
I love Bill, "i scared as shit! Been trying to get out of it all day!" I half expected the finale to Black Adder in the trenches
Can’t lie boys this is one of your best yet. Keep it up 👍.
Thanks for the lovely comment mate, really makes it worth it. Have a good one!
Ah a new Squire video, jolly good show
These Vids are FIRE. Keep doing theese types of videos
Wilco!
I love how calm they all are
HUZZAH!!! I've been waiting for another Great War skit!! Reminds me of come of your old Verdun videos!! Excellent job sir!!
Thanks very much! There'll probably be more WW1 stuff coming soon!
"Don't worry, you'll warm up from the walk over. ... And then suddenly cool right down."
That's a way to put it mildly. 😂
Ever sense 2018 it keeps just getting better and fabulous. Well done
Our Aussie Diggers tried to model ourselves on Tommy Atkins, but couldn't get the accent right. Bloody good stuff.
I love that this channel went from war thunder bits to bits in full reenactment gear, complete with scenery
A piece of art and a good laugh, as always! :)
Thanks again!
Amazing guys great video
Glad you enjoyed it. Say...you're not a German spy are you?
Amazing video - You guys are so talented, I dont know who writes these scripts but its pure gold! Made me laugh so hard!
Great stuff!!
Brilliant work as usual chaps. Very impressed with the quality of the gear you got your hands on, and the smart editing :-) Keep up the good work! Hope you're doing fine and that the CZcams algorithm is kind to you!
Thanks a ton mate, glad you enjoyed it.
POV: you get shell shock but your commanders order you back
You guys are always good for some laughs!
As always I love you guys and your war antics
I LOVE EVERYTHING THAT IS SQUIREEEE
Ah yes the Henderson family Tree serving their nation with distinction.
the last scene gave me "the passing bells " memories damn what I good show that was.
It all started with Bill's character from the end of our Saving Private Ryan. Haven't been able to let that posh family go.
@@SquireComedy lol would be cool to see the family tree again in a hoi4 sketch or cold war era idk just an idea , keep it up guys
I love these.
It's not easy to catch the spirit of the fourth season of Blackadder, but as always you did it.
Smiled when i saw the thumbnail! I love yall!
Never mind Tommy.
Verdun was more deadly.
That’s your fault froggy
You need a channel membership.
Love your content!
Great ad!
Atkins is so committed to fighting the war, I love it
That deep breathing when the gas came by killed me
Great video
Thanks!
This is fantastic. I didn't even realize the add had started until right as I was thinking....why is he on a computer...they showed the website of the product they were selling. Fucking beautiful!
Dude a Hogans Heros parody would be top tier material for this chanel,i really want to see it now lol
I love Squire's videos so much I've actually subscribed my work's account to the channel too (I'm not self employed) 🤫😂
That's the spirit! Employee of the month right here!
bro these keep gettig better and better. you should seriously try to get hired, cuz this could be its own short film
BABE WAKEUP SQUIRE JUST UPLOADED
Time to enjoy this with a ben and jerrys in the freezing cold, god bless you squire.
Oh yes! Cookie dough?
@@SquireComedy Oh aye of course! Morrisons had them on sale for 2 quid, thought I'd grab it.
Good to see that Ben and Jerrys is (as always) universally loved by everyone who has tasted it. Cookie Dough clan for the win!
@@Sirius1914 F*cking hell, which branch? We'll get down there.
@@SquireComedy I don't think you want to mate... I'm in Bolton...
You made a shitty Monday in to a cracking Monday, thank you!
And you've helped mine too mate, cheers!
You guys are the Bloody Best. Sending love and a Proper Rifle and Vest from the States! Good Luck ya Limey Bloke ;)
Thanks Yank, jolly kind.
How I needed those laughs. Cheers from Brazil
The officer is the guy that always has to do something but is like “I’ll do it later. Never mind I’m not doing it.
I've got a challenge for you see if you can make a sketch out of the grimmest battle in WW2, Stalingrad, or you could try "Every Canadian Soldier at Dieppe" if you dare attempt the accents. XD
Dieppe would be quite the fight to see
Yessss! Canadians!
"Here, do you get the feeling that the British might be... Well... Using us?"
@@satireisnotdead5804 "No, I'm sure Lord Mountbatten is right. The huns will be caught completely off guard and would never dare attack us and round us up!"
@@bumperbonnie5721 "Maybe... But, doesn't it seem just a bit odd that they've not tried this sort of landing yet, and when they do they call us first? While we're at it, I don't see any other commonwealth troops about. This all feels a bit like they're using us as Guinea pigs."
Its like a gift, a squire video! Makes your day the best, and best thing, its free, well maybe some ads.. but this random guy on youtube makes all other ads in the world look duller than they already are!
That's made me piss myself, cracking sketch fellas. Very nice work 🤣
Cheers lad!
The kit looks bang on
Cheers! It's pretty on point on this one, which is rare!
Love the vid keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Bro I used to watch this when i was 8 because I was a nerd but as soon as I saw you i subscribed 😊
I Love your Vids
Thanks!
I love these. 😍
I hate that I have caught up with all your videos. Also, the guy who creates the gas 'could' have been my great grandfather as his farts really were truly awesome
I really hope you get picked up by the Beeb or ITV or some such so you can have your own show on the telly - you’re brilliant and your humour absolutely spiffin’, lads.
Maybe one day! Cheers mate :)
@@SquireComedy A pleasure. Only recently discovered your channel and it’s been a laff a minute. Your scriptwriting is excellent. :)
This is one of your guy's best! lmao - As a studier of WW1, A+ (wonder if anybody did stick their leg over the top? I wouldn't blame em!) - Up there with Python and Blackadder ;-)
Thanks! I been feeling sick today (think it was the Swedish fish candy I ate some of), and this skit made me laugh specially the gas attack, my pops tells me its just like that! Made me laugh and got me to feel a little better... Good luck psyching yourself out to not charge gloriously into a German machine gun nest with no cover, no smoke or foliage, and swamp to slow you down, plus I forgot the snakes, and other disease carrying critters there.. Plus that old myth of Germans using a werewolf at the time... Well... Have fun!
I love the man with the Whistle
With two boys they do a video better than a film, compliment

British soldiers:*gets shot*
Also British soldier: I can still fight!
Meanwhile the pilot in the plane: Dam it! he is still alive. Well we batter strike back. Who knows how many Germans would parish because of him!
Great uniforms and kit. Very accurate
