A long departed, very popular comic actor called Kenneth Williams had a great line "I hate innuendo, whenever I see it in a script I immediately whip it out"
Hi, Amanda - just to say thank you. My wife and I love your you tube videos. We don't always catch them right away, but we haven't found one we didn't enjoy. Your enthusiasm, sense of humour and laughter all help to make our day. I have a few American friends (here in the UK) and know some English people living in the USA and it always amazes me how so much unites us and we all can laugh at most things and yet, some aspects of humour of one nation seem to pass the other by. Innuendo is one area where an (apparently) innocent comment will have most Brits smiling, if not laughing out loud, whereas some of my American friends just didn't get it. What has your experience been with irony or sarcasm? An English friend in Chicago jokingly described her somewhat impassive husband as an android and was surprised when her American listener seemed to take her entirely seriously - certainly they didn't laugh with her.
My favourite Holly and Phil moment was when they struggled to keep a straight face whilst interviewing a couple who could achieve constant climax just through hugging. At the end of the interview, they had to say what the next items were, and, upon reading the words on the prompter, "coming next", they just lost it.
A woman walks into a bar and asks for double entendre so the barman gave her one. One of my favourite one liners. Amanda I love your reactions. Holly and Phil are true legends.
Innuendos have always been part of life in the UK, just watch old sitcoms and comedy films from the 1960's, 0's and 80's as they were the main part of the comedy and you hear them ever day as part of life, even the most innocent conversation can be quickly turned into an innuendo if that is how your mind works, there are so many out there.
The US reaction to an innuendo would be to cut away to commercial, post-edit, or just look embarrassed and change the subject. The Australian version would be to drag it out further, see how far it can go, just like the Brits, perhaps more so.
We have perfected the art of innuendo over many generations. Having a strong sense of mischief is one of the traits that puzzles so many viewers and listeners form elsewhere. We like it, lol! Have you seen any of the Carry On movies? The early/mid episodes are the funniest...before they descended to pre-adolescent levels.
I was born in Nuneaton and moved to Australia when I was 2, went back to the UK in 77 for almost 2 years but we in Australia have an Aussie/Pom mix that throws everyone :)
Great to see you enjoying British innuendo humour, Amanda. It's one of my favourite types of humour - guaranteed to get me cracking up laughing. We grew up with it and was a clever way comedians and films got around the censors with risque jokes. For comedians check out Frankie Howerd and Larry Grayson, and Kenny Everett (playing Cupid Stunt). For films, the Carry On series are a must. 😂
I did a training day in Swansea, the trainer was late, she arrived and said "I've come all the way from Bristol" I said "that is a good trick if you can manage it" probably a good thing she did not hear me, a couple of the guys got what I meant, the others were oblivious. :)
Amanda cracks me up on every one of her videos. What a sheer pleasure it is to see her laughing. Thank you Amanda for the pleasure that you bring to this 87 year old guy.
I used to tell my grandma jokes, when I stopped telling her the joke she used to laugh, I used to say to her, you didn’t get that did you, she used to say no, but she was still laughing 😂
I used to import "Fishermans Friends" for my singer in my old band. I learned many English singers use them and so I figured I would get them for my friend.
You are truly fabulous when that delightful snort is uttered. Holly & Phil are legendary on TV & we never grow tired of watching them. It’s clear you are just as adorable in your reactions. 😁👍☘️
As always, a banging video from Amanda. I always love getting one in, late in the evening, it always calms me down after a day of going at things hard.
I was trying to do a voiceover in a studio and in the script was the line "About as likely as a gay Vulcan". I got some very strange images in my head involving Mr Spock and completely lost the plot. Took me 30 minutes to regain my composure. Seeing you cracking up made my day. Cheers ♥️🇬🇧
One of the best comedians of yesteryear was Max Miller. He never swore on stage but had a white book of safe jokes but also a blue book of jokes of 'unsafe' ones which relied on the filthy mind of the audience to fill in the blanks. His fame was so great 'blue jokes ' became notorious.
@Richard Waring. You may already know this. Back in the day, apparently Max Miller was banned from the BBC for telling this joke. Max said "I was walking along a narrow mountain path with a sheer drop to one side. Suddenly, there walking towards me was a beautiful naked woman. I didn't know wether to block her passage or toss myself off!" There's a funny thing! Stay safe and well.
Underlying a lot of British dialogue is a shared understanding of outrageous crudity that breaks through from time time but, more often, is silently understood. BBC programmes of the 50s and 60s often had an outrageously rude sub-text.
Far more difficult than innuendo is irony - because even the English have difficulty spotting it. Irony combined with cold politeness can be devastating. If you were to reply "How interesting! You must tell me all about it sometime." I would probably have to go into therapy to recover.
@@howardchambers9679 Round the Horne was indeed the very best example. I love the idea that it was so rude that even the BBC senior management didn't officially understand what was actually being said (or at least, didn't admit it!) trusting that it couldn't be that bad if Kenneth Horne was involved. Some of the lines Kenneth Williams came up with were biblically rude, considering it was supposed to be a family show on the radio. Still brilliant today 😂
Good evening Amanda 😀 I think your best ever videos for pure laughter 😂🤣 plus it was great to hear your infectious laugh 🤣😂 if that doesn't cheer anyone up nothing will 😀😉❤️
As people have pointed out, innuendo is one of the bedrocks of British humour. A lot of music hall songs are based on that (e.g. She Sits Among The Cabbages And Peas). It was also used to get round strict BBC radio rules so often punchlines from dirty jokes were used rather than the whole joke, which is why there are so many "your turn in the barrel" gags in The Goon Show and is also where the TV programme Ever Decreasing Circles got its name from. Then there were the Julian & Sandy sketches in Round The Horne, like this one... ruclips.net/video/kE_hIcSF3GA/видео.html
I still remember Jimmy Edwards playing off (oops) Dick Bentley with the line under emphasis "Al-A-Bas-Ter!!" in one long-ago radio episode of "The Glums".
Ahh well for the absolute classic innuendo you have to go for the carry on films! Oooh Matron!!! 😆 the thing I loved about those was as a child it was funny but innocent and then you get older and you realise just how Not innocent they are 😆
I remember watching a documentary of sorts from the people who made the Carry On movies, the creators, writers and directors. They were a live action version of the saucy postcards you used to get in seaside resorts, that were a little bit risqué and rude, but seemingly innocent at the same time. That is literally what they did, created a moving version of the postcards.
No one TV couple has ever matched Phil and Holly, it's such a shame they are not working together anymore. Keep 'em coming Amanda and thank you. Love watching your videos. Michael.
The British were brought up on puns and innuendo because of the prudish BBC and censorship and before it was acceptable to swear on television or radio. If you want to see how subtle innuendo (Italian for suppository)can be, search for episodes of (among others) “Round the Horne” or “Captain Pugwash” - a childrens’ program featuring Seaman Stains, Roger the Cabin Boy and Master Bates. No infectious laughter to let you know there’s a joke you have to work it out for yourself.
Oh yes! Back in the days when homosexuality was illegal, the stuff that "Julian and Sandy" got away with was hysterical. And Rambling Sid Rumpo was a treasure.
British humour is absolutely brutal but it's all in good fun. We have double entendres innuendos and insults all the way through the English language in the UK
Innuendo, along with sarcasm is a true measure of BritWit (I may patent that saying) if you get it (ooer missus) then you are a Brit through and through. Nice vid Amanda, more please.
@@LADYRAEUK Amanda, are you au fait with the radio programme "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue"? If not, you might want to check out "The Complete Samantha" and "The Complete Lionel Blair". And to think this FILTH is broadcast on the BBC Home Service (aka Radio 4) at Sunday lunchtimes...
I live abroad and I haven't seen British daytime TV in years. I completely forgot how dirty minded we all are. Thank you, just spat tea across the screen 😆
Those innuendos were unscripted and helped along by fits of the giggles which are infectious and part of the fun. Older British comedy programs had to get past the prudish censors such as those at the BBC. An innuendo (an Italian suppository ?) and mischievous puns would be often carefully scripted in to get past the censor. Check out the old radio programs such as “The Goons”, “Round the Horne” with comedians such as Spike Milligan and Kenneth Williams singing folk songs as Rambling Sid Rumpo. Innuendos would even appear in childrens’ programs such as “Captain Pugwash” with characters such as Seaman Stains, Master Bates and Roger the Cabin Boy. Something of a rarity now that the media considers it acceptable for comedians to swear they are able to get an easy laugh. Humour has become more obvious as a consequence.
That joke used on air during a rock station's morning show. One of the guys was choking. The 2nd one asks if he's OK? 1st one says he was swallowing a fisherman's friend. Which prompts his partner to comnent , " Yeah. I heard that about you!" 😅😁😂
A man who was in court on a sexual charge, started choking. Judge says do you want to suck a fisherman’s friend? He replied, don’t you think I’m in enough bloody trouble as it is!
Hello Amanda this video was absolutely hilarious i haven't laughed this much in ages thank you very much i thoroughly enjoyed it im definitely looking forward to you're next video 🤣❤🤣❤🤣❤🤣
I don't watch this show at all, but Holly Willoughby always comes across as a really classy lady - the kind you'd be proud to take home to your parents - and then quickly regret. :D
I'm surprised that no-one has explained that they are called "vicar and actress" jokes. As in "that's a big one" as the actress said to the vicar, or vice versa, depending on the statement.
Check out "Are You Being Served?" Years after it ended in the UK it became something of a cult on PBS in the US. By far the best was Mrs. Slocambe's frequent references to her cat. Or at least I think that's what she meant. Absolutely hilarious!
if you want innuendos, I suggest you watch the Carry On films. I am sure you will find lots of clips on YT. Julian Clary's whole career is built around innuendos. look up his early stuff, when his act was called "the Joan Collins fan club".
I'm so glad you enjoyed this. Yes i love innuendo i use it all the time, since my early teens (i'm 42 now). On daytime tv i agree Holly is the best at it.
I've just caught on to your channel and love your reaction to the comedy videos, and they are some of the best of British. I'd like to recommend the one liner comedians Gary Delaney, Tim Vine and Milton Jones. As for TV shows, we had one called Coupling, written by Steven Moffat (Dr. Who), and in particular the episode called The Man With Two Legs. Also the 'class' sketch from The Frost Report is another favourite. Keep the videos coming, they're brilliant
Favourite has to be with Julien Clary, when he says you can ring my bell and asks Holly if she'd like to suck on a fisherman's friend! Absolute comedy genius and innuendo!! very underrated comedian. Brilliant
My wife, bless her, is the queen of double entendre, one day at the Pharmacy where she worked the delivery came in and said to my wife,"where do you want it", quite innocently she replied "up against the wall would be nice" I think he would have happily obliged!
Amanda, surely you’ve heard the Groucho Marx quip on the radio quiz You Bet Your Life. He asked one woman who had 22 children how come she had that many. She told him: ‘Because I love children, and I think that’s our purpose here on earth, and I love my husband.’ To which Groucho replied: ‘I love my cigar, too, but I take it out of my mouth once in a while.’
It looks like you've had the best time with these. It's a shame they are not on the show anymore. Frankie Howard was famous for innuendos, along with the Carry On movies. Maybe also try the Suits You tailors from the Fast Show, or any of their sketches for that matter
"If my Grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike" Gino. I'm surprised the compilation video didn't include that one, and Gino's reaction (Bless him!) when he didn't understand why they were cracking up at that :-D Thanks for uploading though, I love watching your reactions ;-)
The Italian chef is called Gino D'Acampo. He is a regular on the show and is an absolute mischief maker. He often says thing that sets Holly off giggling. He has actually appeared on the show naked as part of a bet he lost to Phillip and Holly. It was brilliantly funny.
A long departed, very popular comic actor called Kenneth Williams had a great line "I hate innuendo, whenever I see it in a script I immediately whip it out"
Kenneth Williams
He was a cult, you know
A big cult
“My muff smells of lavender…….you stick both your hands in and it’s nice and warm”. Long time since I heard “muff” but it was a good innuendo arf arf
Absolutely hilarious. Maybe because some of them were unintentional. But the best part was seeing our Amanda helpless with laughter xxxx
Amanda's snort-laugh!!

Julian Clary's whole career is built around innuendos. look up his early stuff, when his act was called "the Joan Collins fan club".
"There is nothing better than seeing someone laughing so hard and so uncontrollably" ... that's why we're here Amanda :D
Lol 🤣🤣
"I always forget to take a tissue with me when I do these videos"..... talk about an innuendo. 🤣🤣
I'm so glad you enjoyed this. Yes i love innuendo i use it all the time, since my early teens (i'm 42 now). On daytime tv i agree Holly is the best at it.
Yeah, I remember in my english language teaching days, a pretty Brazilian student asked for example of an innuendo .. so I gave her one.
I've just caught on to your channel and love your reaction to the comedy videos, and they are some of the best of British.
I'd like to recommend the one liner comedians Gary Delaney, Tim Vine and Milton Jones. As for TV shows, we had one called Coupling, written by Steven Moffat (Dr. Who), and in particular the episode called The Man With Two Legs. Also the 'class' sketch from The Frost Report is another favourite.
Keep the videos coming, they're brilliant
Absolutely brilliant, i'm crying with laughter!!
Julian Clary is a legend. He is one of the lords of innuendo! If you check out his comedy, you'll love it!
Ill have a look, any particular bit?
@@LADYRAEUK He was great on Have I got news for you and his live at the apollo stand up is good too :)
Your laugh/snort/pig noise is so funny - love it.
Haha thank you 🤣
Favourite has to be with Julien Clary, when he says you can ring my bell and asks Holly if she'd like to suck on a fisherman's friend! Absolute comedy genius and innuendo!! very underrated comedian. Brilliant
Never seen this show before. Gonna look in to it a bit more, it really cracked me up. Thx Amanda.
Hi Amanda. Another terrific video. Have you seen the Morecambe and Wise Andre Previn sketch yet?
Not yet! 😊
Early near knuttle radio Around the horn Around the Horn took 1947 - 1960s to new horizens.
along with Kenneth Williams
ahh👍👍
We all grew up watching ""Carry on films""
so innuendo is a past time for X gens.
"" INFAMY, INFAMY they've all got it in for me ""

My wife, bless her, is the queen of double entendre, one day at the Pharmacy where she worked the delivery came in and said to my wife,"where do you want it", quite innocently she replied "up against the wall would be nice" I think he would have happily obliged!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Amanda,
surely you’ve heard the Groucho Marx quip on the radio quiz You Bet Your Life.
He asked one woman who had 22 children how come she had that many.
She told him: ‘Because I love children, and I think that’s our purpose here on earth, and I love my husband.’
To which Groucho replied: ‘I love my cigar, too, but I take it out of my mouth once in a while.’
Frankie Howard was a master of the innuendo.
Holly and Phil on this morning are national treasures. Absolutely priceless unintentional comedy
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Not any more ace
Not any more son
@@paulbrady5772 😂 i know. This aged dreadfully
I remember when Phil went grey over night and he died it for a while. He hasnt aged since...
It looks like you've had the best time with these. It's a shame they are not on the show anymore. Frankie Howard was famous for innuendos, along with the Carry On movies. Maybe also try the Suits You tailors from the Fast Show, or any of their sketches for that matter
My girlfriend asked me to give her an example of an innuendo...so I gave her one!
😂😂
Your reactions have me crying 🤣
Keep them coming!
Lol I’m so glad
I've been waiting so long for you to watch this!!
I love how Philip eggs the comments on, like "Ooohhhh, it's a strap-on" 😂😂
Great video Amanda. You must see the classic one where fern brittan asks Phil to dunk his beef! It's hilarious!
👍🏻👍🏻
@@LADYRAEUK Steve is right you should view that. Phil is her Hubby.
So that may have been arranged after the show. Lol
When Gino calls Toad in the hole something else; it sounds so naughty and explicit. Couldn't stop giggling
Did you get the 'Fisherman's Friend' one?
"If my Grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike" Gino. I'm surprised the compilation video didn't include that one, and Gino's reaction (Bless him!) when he didn't understand why they were cracking up at that :-D Thanks for uploading though, I love watching your reactions ;-)
The Italian chef is called Gino D'Acampo. He is a regular on the show and is an absolute mischief maker. He often says thing that sets Holly off giggling. He has actually appeared on the show naked as part of a bet he lost to Phillip and Holly. It was brilliantly funny.
I bet 🤣🤣
Just about anything can be a euphemism if your mind works that way. Holly's mind obviously works that way.
I try to avoid innuendos these days ... but sometimes I can't help slipping one in.
That's a bit back handed isn't it.
the more I try to avoid making innuendos, the harder it gets
