So, so, so much respect for the IT crowd knowledge!!
Why thank you!
I was so impressed with that.
Same
Yep, when you didn't think you could respect her more, she throws that sublime IT-Crowd gauntlet at you. It also means she instantly gets the Richard Ayoade awkward humor. :)
You guys give me too much credit, it's a pretty catchy tune😊
I'm Welsh and we make fun of ourselves with sheep jokes ( cause we got a great sense of humor) My personal fav is "you know it's really hard to get to sleep while counting sheep cause of the hard-on"
For our family it was when me dad found salt n pepper containers that were 2 sheep shaggin n gave em to me grandparents as a prezzie 🤣
Haven't heard that one. Will be using it regularly. Diolch.
Probably heard it. What to you call a sheep tied to a lamp-post in Wales, open for business 😁.
@@zebedeemadness2672 That one I knew, though my answer to the question was "A leisure centre".
@@zebedeemadness2672 Nope not heard it before, which is very rare as I've lived in England for the past 45 years lol ( I can't sing so it was decided I'd try to bring some culture to the English)
Absolutely NAILED the IT crowd emergency number 😂
Loved her comment about "Was it the best tent on the inside too?" so funny
3:32. He is American, and he basically is a real life Simpsons character.
He's Rich Hall, a comedian who generally works more in the UK than in his home country but he's pretty famous in both places And when he was younger, he was friends with some of the original collaborators on the Simpsons show back in the 80s, and when it came time to create the Simpsons characters, they modelled Moe Syzlak on him, both on his looks and gravelly voice. Moe even had black hair originally aswell
one of the only characters in the show to be entirely modelled on one real life person.
Oh my god, I knew Rich Hall reminded me of someone.
Countdown has been running since 1982 - it was the first show on Channel 4 which was launched in November of that year. It's popular with retired folks but also students.
Def remember watching it as a student, which it's odd to things was some 20 years ago now.
Johnny Vegas is a comedic genius you need to watch more of him
The PG adverts alone. Though more recently Taskmaster oh god.
Okay I just love him.
Johnny Vegas at the Tsunami benefit show was insane.
Link to the tsunami relief comic aid czcams.com/video/6LT8BNp5iW4/video.html
The show ideal with Johnny Vegas was AMAZING
Johnny Vegas messing with Adam on The Last Leg was beautiful.
You just blew my mind when you recited the IT crowd's emergency number. Amazing!
I really enjoy finding some other midwesterners who enjoy British comedy as much as I do! Keep it up both of ya!
How did you discover British comedy as an American?
@@skyebates246 I think it started with the IT Crowd on Netflix, which led me down a YT rabbit hole of British comedians.
Nailing the IT emergency number gotta be worth a like.
Nailing everything, she has gained an encyclopaedic knowledge of almost all things British!
In the UK for broadcast TV we have the “Watershed”. Certain programmes cannot be shown before the 9:00 p.m. watershed time. 8 out of 10 cats is one of them, the original Countdown is a stalwart of the afternoon TV schedules on UK’s Channel 4. when I was a child we only had one TV channel, the BBC (known as the Beeb or affectionately Auntie). I can remember when our TV had to be taken away for a switch to be installed that allowed the TV to be tuned to either BBC or the new ITV. BBC was government funded, so just TV shows, ITV was funded by advertising. In the late 60’s the BBC started a new channel, called BBC2. This was more “high brow” and heralded the start of Colour TV. So we now had 3 channels.
Along came a fourth channel, so it was called Channel 4. this was in 1982 and again funded by commercials/advertising. This new channel allowed for the inception of S4C, a Welsh language version of Channel 4. In 1997 another channel and called it expectedly Channel 5, again another funded by commercials.
This millennium we changed over to Digital Broadcasting and the previous system was scrapped. We had to either get a set-top adapter for a few pounds, or get a new TV. These were all terrestrial TV and we also have satellite broadcasting. We also used to have Cable TV many years ago in the poor reception areas like the mining valleys, more wooden poles and loads of cables.
The US and Canada have a watershed of 10pm as well, but in the states it isn't a widely known thing, probably because the networks are beholden to the advertisers and rarely run any programing that would be controversial to them.
Another problem is the many time zones, it would be possible to broadcast something to NY, that would also be simulcast across 3 time zones, meaning they could get a fine even though the target market is hours after the watershed.
My dad when he was a kid had the tv's that you had to put money in, he thought it would be clever to them take the money out as he found a way of getting inside it. As you can guess all hell broke loose when it was collection time 😂😂
I was gobsmacked when you started reciting the IT Crowd emergency helpline number. Amazing haha
Loved this reaction and the fact that your missus has such a great knowledge of British pop culture. She's super-smart and picks up on the smallest cultural references. You certainly landed on your feet there, mate. Cheers from the UK.
She put's laddo to shame, Gig. Do'nt think that would be too hard though, he's a bit of a thick cxxt alright.
Well, looks like someone in that family has a great memory. Still remembering the phone number from that show, even after 3 times watching is still impressive.
15:57... Credit given when due... Well done to the missus.... You got it spot on
She is so adorable! And midwest kindness oozes out of both you. Just bang on sweethearts.
Got so excited when you started reciting that number, tons of respect
In terms of joking about the Welsh having an affinity for shagging sheep. It’s origins came from the fact a few hundred years ago it was a capital crime to be caught sheep rustling in wales and if caught you would be executed. So the rustlers who were caught in the fields at night trying to steal the sheep had to come up with another reason to be in the field. And being caught having “sex” with the sheep didn’t end in a death sentence so everyone who was caught used it as an excuse. Which is why in wales and Ireland they have the stereotype of shagging sheep.
In England and I think Scotland it wasn’t a capital crime to steal sheep so those caught stealing the sheep didn’t need to come up with an excuse to escape execution.
There must've been at least one person who used that as an excuse, except that it was true 😃
Think "The Moonrakers", (strong bow" supreme ? ) Look it up, it's fab. Also, allegedly, a young lass got 5 years "penal sevitude" in van Damens land (Tasmania) for nicking some linen.
There were a couple of clips of Bob Mortimer, you really should check him out on Would I Lie to you.
Genuinely some of the funniest videos I've ever seen.
What an amazing life Bob Mortimer has led his stories on wilty are amazing
Remembering that emergency number from IT Crowd is seriously impressive
14:44 Richard Ayoade is a legend, he has a very unique style of comedy if how he portrays himself and you should definately do a reaction video to some of his stuff
When she rattled off the IT Crowd emergency number I have to say I was very impressed!
Great show, Joe is awesome, RIP Sean Locke - what a loss😪
I'm from Scotland & we are, along with the Welsh & New Zealanders, victims of sheep shagging jokes. I say victims but we're more than happy to have our private lives laid bare, so to speak.
Oh-no you missed it, laid barrr 😂😒😁.
Great Reaction Guys.
The hilarious thing is that the original Daytime Programme: Countdown has been going for 39 successive years now since 1982. long b4 this format :)
Your watching our comedy and laughing 😂 and I watch you two making me laugh 😂 great reaction as always Love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👍👏👏👏👏🥰👋
OMG!! Epic IT Crowd recall, a-mazing!! Very cool 😍😂👍🇬🇧
Very entertaining watching this with you two. Thank you from England.
Even if I already saw some of those jokes, it was a really good compilation. Love the contrast of how you react to British comedy now, to a few months ago.
Fun fact: The original 'Countdown' was the first programme to be shown at the launch of Britain's 4th TV channel 'Channel 4' - which launched in 1982). Prior to that we only had 3 TV channels. So the new '8 out of 10 cats' version has definitely breathed life into a very old TV show.
You guys are annoyingly likeable. Love it👍
Regarding the real Countdown show, it has been going every weekday for 40 years ( 1982 ). The comedy version was originally a one off show for charity, but people liked it and it carried on for many series/seasons.
18:40 - the hotel Alan talks about is part of the SkyCity complex, and the tower is the SkyTower. The SkyTower has restaurants at the top (one of the revolves) as well as the bungy jumping thing. The complex also has a casino, more restaurants, a theatre, etc.
Hey guys, there are a shitton of episodes for a panel show special called Big Fat Quiz. There's BFQ of the year (2004-2020); BFQ of Everything; and BFQ of the Decade for the 80s (two episodes), 90s (two episodes), 00s, and 10s. In fact, on Boxing Day (Dec. 26), there will be a BFQ of 2021. All these episodes are on CZcams. You should react to them, bet you'd enjoy them. Jimmy hosts them all, with three teams of two celebrities.
All the nations in the British Isles 'rake' each other when they are separated but enjoy each others company...in my opinion.
Wow! She knows the emergency number from the IT Crowd!
That bunji jumping scetch got me howling. You guys are so right, because I fell for something like that at work when I first started.
Nobody told me that the electricity pilons next to our facility are fake. They aren't concerned to the power grid and are used for training.
Well... Imagine my surprise when I saw a man HANGED from the tower by their neck!!! Turns out they regularly leave the rescue dummy up there while they go on break.
I am not kidding when I say my soul left my body through my arsehole 😂😂😂 It looked like a real person.
I'm sure that job is why I have bad anxiety, as it was also two buildings over from the nuclear research and development factory... and those test alarms scared the shit out of me as well 😂,
That IT Crowd reference, perfection.
The 'other' Countdown was the first programme to be show on the new Channel 4 television station in the UK
I watched Johnny Vegas (aka Mike Pennington) do the Hawaiian tune on his nose at a school talent show in 1989. Of course he won.
Hi Folks Still loving your reactions! Now you've mentioned the I.T Crowd perhaps you could react to some of the best bits like "The Works Outing" & "Are We Not Men" ? All the best Jim, Surrey, UK X
Oh, wow! Your recall from the 'IT Crowd' emergency telephone number :D Great!
Such a sad loss when we lost Sean…such a funny bloke
19:04 Not sure if you got the reference here, but "Carry On" was a series of 30 British comedy movies, from the 50s to the 70s, starring a regular, rotating cast. The movies got increasingly saucy as the series progressed. I'd say the best ones are Sergeant (first in the series), Cleo, Cowboy, Doctor, Camping, At your Convenience, and Girls.
Also Screaming
Man, you guys would REALLY love Shooting Stars. Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer just...being surreal in amazing ways on a quiz show. Matt Lucas keeping the scores, too, so it's really got everything from Jazz Pancakes to the Sweaty Fox.
Countdown, which the 8 out of 10 Cats Does is based on, was the very first show broadcast on Channel 4 when the channel started in 1982. Up until then, there were only three TV channels available to watch.
Rest In Peace Sean Lock, he really made that programme... 😔
Really impressed you know the IT crowd emergency number! 🤣🤣🤣
The guy in the checked/chequed shirt (3:29) who threw his pen at Jimmy after the Americans are a 'bunch or arsehole' joke is Rich Hall, from Montana. Check out his alter ego, the country singer, Otis Lee Crenshaw. Possibly my favourite American comedian.
love fae S.W.Scotland to you and yours ,have a great Christmas , a fantastic HOGMANAY & a fan dabbie dozzie 2022
so impressed you remembered the IT crowd number!
Comedy in the UK has no boundaries and that's why we produce great comedians. Americans and others have this idea that the British are from the early 20th century, we're all incredibly polite, we're very stuffy and straight laced and are overly serious. WRONG!! We are very self deprecating and are savage with our friends. No insult is taken seriously unless given by either a stranger or someone you don't know too well. There's no such thing as too far for British comedians and it's up to the individual watching to gauge their own limit.
That said I'm assuming that ur hubby was glad u were on hand to interpret some of the jokes.😂 Loved the reactions, especially from mud westerners as I know u guys are a lot more conservative than ur East of West coast countrymen. That was fun to watch guys.👍❤
One Jimmy's best joke ever was still. "Heard a New York cop say, we'll never forget 9/11... I said, I hope not, it's your bloody phone number"
How you can remember the it crowd emergency phone number Is awesome.
You need to watch a full episode to appreciate the comedy. There was originally 2 series, '8 out of 10 cats' and 'countdown' - 8 out of 10 cats is a comedy quiz show, Countdown is a nerdy afternoon math and word quiz show, the producers decided to make a funny version of countdown, hence '8 out of 10 cats does countdown'
Great IT Crowd emergency number recall. Impressive
Vicar of Dibley was one of the comedy sitcom where there was plenty of innuendo jokes. If you get a chance watch it.
there is also split shifts that are 6 - 2, 2-10, 10-6. so morning shift can catch it, plus now theres also catchup and recording options
If there are any Americans reading this for the record 911 still works as the emergency phone number in the U.K. the same as our 999 number, just thought it was worth noting also so does the European 112 emergency number.
Good to know, thanks for sharing.
First time on this video and I already subscribed because she can get the IT crowed emergency number. And I love it.
IT Crowd Knowledge....Very impressive to see from someone across the pond....
They did a Countdown version too which is side splittingly funny....Hope you saw that one.
great stuff guys
I T CROWD! Oh, that was so sweet! I myself haven't ever memorized that number, so my hat is off to you. (Although I easily remember the last four digits, because by some *VERY* strange coincidence, those are the area code of where I grew up).
My late wife and I enjoyed humour. One quip Louise had was that one reason she married me was that she knew I must have a great sense of humour. When I asked her how she knew this, her reply was, "Well, I knew because, after all, you do have to look at yourself in the bathroom mirror every morning." One I have used with my kids and am now doing so with my grandsons, I utilise after sitting with them while they are doing their prep/homework. "Bastien (or Archer, or Giichi, etc), you know you're not as dumb as you look", while looking over his work. "Thanks gramps (or mzee)". "Yes, but then you couldn't possibly be"!!
I love that she knows the IT crowd emergency number.
8oo10CDC is always a hoot to watch, I Love the show, RIP Sean Locke
The Auckland Hotel is called the Sky Hotel and the Sky jump is fantastic.
Highly recommended.
Dang, that was 50!? Time flies when you're having fun, I hate myself for saying that. But yeah 😊
Something obliviable is something easy to forget. Oblivious is someone unaware of something. They’re not synonyms. The former describes the object, the latter describes the subject. It’s the difference between someone employable and someone employing.
Countdown is a serious quiz show. 8 out 10 cats is a comedy panel show. A few years ago channel 4 experimented with mixing comedy shows with quiz shows. This was the most successful of them . Ironically 8 out of 10 cats in it’s original format has pretty much finished. Countdown is still really popular in it’s original format
Q: what's the most common owl in the UK.
A: The teet (there's one in every kitchen)
awesome IT crowd reference! :)
Johnny Vegas my favot. His show murder on the Blackpool express is a joy.
14:09 he looks like he crushes turtles in his spare time 😁
Quality stuff. It took me years to understand some accents and humour, despite having dual Aus/British citizenship. (I have the same National Geographic poster on my wall, BTW.)
Countdown is based on the French game "letters and numbers" the first program on channel 4 when it launched was countdown.
Nice one about the sheep joke! True about the Brits and their sheep, there are more 24 breeds, purposely breed for the varying weather conditions throughout the UK. My family were famous for one of them, the Border Leister, which hail from the Border between England and Scotland!
The It crowd side note was quality(british slang for very good).
That IT crowd recital was incredible
Fun fact, Moe the bartender from The Simpsons is based on the American comedian that throws the pen at Jimmy 3:30
I love your bluesy opening music
I love how a lot of the content went over his head 🤣🤣
Thumbs up for reciting the holy IT Crowd code.
When Kevin starts speaking, you both glaze over not understanding a single thing.
Tis a beautiful moment.
Damn, remembering the IT Crowd number is impressive!
Ricky gervais said it perfectly dont be offended by it, its just jokes. Same with jimmy, i never heard him go to far, its just jokes.
The Welsh sheep shagging thing comes from a time when stealing a sheep was punishable by death, having sexual relations with a sheep brought a lower sentence, so anyone caught with a sheep that wasn't theirs would plead guilty to sexual relations rather than theft.
That's amusing, but I don't know that it follows. Even if you stole the sheep to rape it, you still stole it. Seems like claiming bestiality would just earn you a second charge, though that's kinda moot with a death penalty on the first.
@@michaelccozens the plea, I assume meant they intended to return the sheep afterward, to its rightful owner.
Love watching you two
The story I have heard for the Welsh stereotype is that when caught with a farmer's sheep by the border they would say they where having sex with it instead of stealing it as it came with a lesser punishment
Yes. Stealing sheep was a hanging offence, but bestiality was a fine. Of course, they could pay the fine from the sale of the sheep from the time before, when they didn't get caught. :)
At that point though, it might be best to change career. If it's bestiality, you don't want to be known as a repeat offender.
Have you seen any 'Would I lie to you' quiz clips? Bob Mortimer 8:38 is hilarious (and surreal) on it
Uhuh, and usually the stories turn out to be true!
@@TukikoTroy Don't spoil it for them!
@@TukikoTroy Except for the ones that are not true 😉
@@dave_h_8742 ... that's why I said 'usually'. But the thing is, Bob's true stories are SOOOOO outrageous that they all sound false anyway.
Is that Olivia Colman as QE2 in the background, on the map?
Also commenting because the lady's IT Crowd knowledge made me swoon. Cute as hell.
I would love to know which US comedians you think could do a show like 8ootcdc, or if you think it could work in the US? My favourite US comedian who has been on the show has to be Michelle Wolf. As usual, well balanced reaction from you guys. Not too intrusive but some interesting observations.
Thank you and I would say Bill Burr would be pretty good on a show like that.
Great IT reference ! You know your Brit TV
👍for referencing the IT Crowd. Brilliant.
Definitely check out countdown. It's a great show.
Nice One Guys 👍 thanks 🤗
Real countdown is a gameshow that's run for many years. It's a bit of an institution but yeah it's a daytime tv game show.
It was always liked as anyone can play but the people/champions on it are incredible. 8/10 cats is a comedy on panel show about statistics.
I'm not sure it it started out as a special but they mixed the two and it really worked and now we are many seasons in.
THE FUCKING IT CROWD NUMBER. AMAZING!
RIP Sean Lock
I sung the IT crowd number in time. 😆🤦♂
