Nadia Shireen Siddiqi - Scotland isn’t significant enough to even register on the Richter scale in the EU, if it does it’s only because of the slight provocation to Spain, with respect to a small region breaking away from a larger union.

I know, right. Me: Yank Summer visitor to the land of some ancestors. Chilled to the bone in a July morning rain in Edinburgh a few years ago. I know why Carnegie and so many other Scots emigrated: opportunity first, better climate second.
@@replicativeimpact1574 One thing is reality, another thing is parody. Try to look at this as parody about a character you know, in silly situations. Normally the only thing parody and reality match is names and places. The rest is ridiculous, that is the whole point of parody.
@@replicativeimpact1574 youre right, it doesnt make fun of merkel at all. Rather it makes fun of stereotypes familiar to british people. Im not from britain but i get the jokes about germany, but not jokes about scotland because im not familiar with their culture. I dont even know what the fried fudge is about. All in good fun. Edit: check out death to 2020. Ullman does similar jokes while playing elizabeth ii that make fun of commom peoples views on royalty but not about the real queen.
I laughed, too. Someone spent ages putting that together just for a second or two on screen. But it shows the quality, as there's so much to unpack about the meaning of a deep fried Highland fudge Ferrero Roche-style pyramid. Class.
@Isabella Bird Are you stupid? It is just a nick, I dont usw my real name in the net. Secondly according to your logic: Why can you write? Your name ist not human.
The actress playing Brigert... she is spectacular. Really, she is off-the-map good. The overall feel of course, but the details, details, details, sketch after sketch. Highland fudge or skyping with the US Pres. ... I suspect she and Ullman get along like a house ... thoroughly enjoying itself.
She IS Nicola Sturgeon!!? I had to take a double-take! Uncanny (no pun intended) how she morphs into the personality she imitates. Genius! Ullman is a comedic mastermind.
I remember Tracey Ullman from 30+ years ago.. I never understood her humor although I always respected her. I may be late to the party but I'm so grateful to finally arrive. Kudos to Tracey and her fans through the years.. lots to catch up on !!
”She wanted independence, I'll make her head independent from her body." That is an absolutely hilarious line. In all seriousness though, if Scotland had of become independent, it would have been interesting to see Sturgeon and Merkel together on the European stage. It's such a shame that Sturgeon's departure from politics was followed by allegations of embezzlement and corruption. Even if one didn't agree with her policies, she was one of the better leaders in the UK at the time. At least she appeared that way. Disappointing really. Nevertheless, Tracy Ullman's brilliance in imitating both Merkel and Sturgeon is excellent and very, very funny.
Has there been a Hilary version yet? I thought the Sturgeon and Merkel take offs were brilliant. Every time I now see the First Minister of Scotland in a red outfit.. I will think of Tracey Ullman !!!
I wish Angela wold make a guest appearance after her last day in office next year. Having her play a comedian that imitates the "real" Angela would be so freaking epic
I wouldn't put it past her. Not that she would ever show it in public, but Merkel has a sublime sense of humour. When she has her military farewell parade this week, she asked the army band to play an East German punk song for her.
For a minute I honesty thought that was actually Nicola Sturgeon. I was thinking 'she's laying on her accent a bit'. I thought it must be comic relief.
"If she wants independence i'll make her head independent from her body"

@@nadiashireensiddiqi It's called satire. Also, advertising your facebook profile? Who the hell cares!

Oh, I thought she said Glasgow.....thanks!
Yeah I'm Scottish and I always assumed everyone was cold around that time lol

@@danielstewart8631 August is one of the hottest months in California
This is genius. Between the makeup, the writing and the actors. Genius. I could watch a whole series based solely on the Merkel sketches.
AGREE 100%
I sincerely hope Angela Merkel watches these parodies XD
I live in Germany and the parody has nothing to do with how Merkel really is or what she talks about. Not funny
@@replicativeimpact1574 That's the point, they poke fun at politicians and celebrities.

"I'm going to give that woman a Glasgow Kiss."
I'm still giggling. That's funny.
I was laughing so much i couldn't hear what she said in the background while giving her a glasgow kiss haha
John Smith omg hahhahaa
A Glasgow kiss means a quick head but to the nose to break it.
@@nitrocatgaming1748 Rather is just an outright head butt haha
She wants independence I'll make her head independent from her body haha

"If this is how Scotland treats its summers, it doesn't deserve any". Oscar Wilde.
That's probably why oscar desided to be born bread and buttered in Ireland
And somehow Sturgeon's make-up person is stuck in a snowdrift in August.
Deep fried Highland fudge, arranged in a ferro Rocher style pyramid 😂

@@jamesmcinnis208 oh scared of therapy huh? don't want to delve to deep to find there's nothing there?
Tracey Ullman is one of the funniest comediennes ever. I adore her take on Angela.
"That is perfect for a human rights conference in Inverness. Nothing too sex machine".
'I have enough trouble with Hillary Clinton'
Don't we all
She should do Hilary Clinton
She should do Hilary Clinton
Seriously, Ullman's German accent is perfect, it's even better than mine ;).

It’s far from being „perfect“.
@@Celisar1 exactly, it sounds east european. I am German and it doesnt sound like german accent to me, her assistant is much better.

And now she's under arrest. Sturgeon's journey from hero to zero is now complete. As always, Tracey Ullman impersonates her mannerisms very well 😉
Even worse, the SNP went from 48 to 9 seats in the British House of Commons after the 2024 general election.

@MichaelKingsfordGray 🏇 Loser
The name is actually "Birgit" :D Very common here in Germany for women of her age.
Samantha Spiro plays Birgit.
@MichaelKingsfordGray you horrible twat
She IS Nicola Sturgeon!!? I had to take a double-take! Uncanny (no pun intended) how she morphs into the personality she imitates. Genius! Ullman is a comedic mastermind.
The Loch Ness monster fridge magnet!!! Im dying
The assistant lady is very good too. I love seeing her do the touch up on Angela’s face
Ze German accent is really good, greetings from Berlin Germany 🇩🇪
Hello from England 👋
You'll live in the best part of Glasgow and drink the finest Irn bru.
That's a contradiction in terms.
@@jamestinsley3110 two? perhaps
Actualy there are good parts of Glasgow.

Tracey was always hilarious plus she's a very good singer had a few good songs and done well in both the UK and Irish charts.
She had a couple of pretty decent songs in the charts too.
These are priceless! as a Canadian watching these years later... "Stuck in a Schnow drift!" Tracey and her writers are brilliant!.
Tracy’s Nicola Sturgeon is hysterical (both in the literal and figurative senses of the word)
Ok, that is Tracy, right? The resemblance to Nicola is scary..
she's got them spot on ,absolutely brilliant
Gar nicht schlecht gemacht, muss ich zugeben! With greetings from Germany 😊
"i'm going to give that woman a Glasgow kiss"
What is that? A Glasgow kiss? I think I can guess...ha ha ha ha ha ha!
"Deep fried Highland fudge?" LOL 😄😄
And what a treat to get Tracey playing two parts!
Hello stephanie hope you're okay?
Tracey still hasn't lost it after all those years.
The INCREDIBLE Tracey Ullman. The master of imitation. Love her.
Sorry lavinia but Tracey proved that shes all woman along time ago so shes the mistress of imitation.
The "Meryl Streep of Comedy"
Great German accents, great Scottish accent!
Scottish vorrrrld))))))) Priceless!!))))))))))))))))
SuperSmile2004 She's even more convincing than the real thing😂
@John Smith Que? Which planet are you from?

Got them both to a T, many a true word said in jest.
When will they start imitating Theresa May? "I don't know why people vote for me!"
"if she wants to be Independent, I'll make her head independent from her body" 🤣🤣🤣
@MichaelKingsfordGray lol I know Nicola sturgeon is a complete moron lol
i stumbled upon this and I have tears laughing !!! nice watch for the lockdown!! this woman is just too good.
“MERKEL IS FINISHED!”
Oh Nicola, you’re 4 years to early to say that.
Outstanding comedy.. what a talent Tracey ullman is ..
LOL....love the plaid lampshade.
Has there been a Hilary version yet?
I thought the Sturgeon and Merkel take offs were brilliant.
Every time I now see the First Minister of Scotland in a red outfit.. I will think of Tracey Ullman !!!
Love her . She's pure talent
Wicked Scottish accent! 😂
Great on the accents! As a German, I can tell, that these two have it down!!! Superb comedy!
I have watched this.at.least.a.dozen times.and I will watch it some dozen times more...I just.can't get enough of them!!
"She wants independence? I'll give her independence from her body" xD
Not correctly quoted. Thumbs down.
This is brilliant - funny but yet so true.
I love it when Angela goes banging at Nicola's door
This should be a weekly show of its own. Just that good
2:32 Ohh Frau Sturgeon... hahaha
I just LOVE her Scottish accent!!
It’s spot on
These are wonderful! I need more of this in my life!
This is so funny absolutely love Tracy
The Merkel episodes are the best
Hello Pamela hope you're okay?
Tracey Ullman is so good!
Deep fried highland fudge hahaha
Tracey Ullman is simply a genius
" ...you saw what I did to Alex Salmond". Talk about topical!

Tracy Ullman...genius.
Tracey Ulman is very good, most comedians die out after they peak, our Tracey just gets better, like a fine wine 👍👍👍
Tracey's makeup artist is so professional and correct he also gave Tracy blue contact lenses
Like "if we copy Angela, we'll do it properly!"
I can't live Angela!
Ich auch nicht!!!!!
Perfekt!
Selten so gelacht!!!
Deep fried Highland fudge, anyone?
50 shades of beige.
"You saw wit I did to Alex Salmond...". 😂
ahh man absolutely brilliant,
Tracey's accents are so perfect.
She’s been doing this for a fair while.
And look at how Nicola Sturgeon turned out to be........ Did Tracey know something we all didn't?
Deep fried fudge, yum, and all the Irn Bru, I'd be sold, lol 🤣
Tracy Ullman is AMAZING!!!
Großartig 👍🏽
To think both of them are gone now...
But only one of them will be missed.
Damn this is gold....
Deep-fried Highland Fudge sounds delicious.
It was also my drag and name in high school.
Ew.
"shtuck in the shnow"
A snow drift in August no less!
Her “Sturgeon” just eerily comes across like a female Billy Connolly ...
Tracey's Scots accent ... would love to see her enact Maggie Smith as Miss Jean Brodie.
A Glasgow Kiss.
Lmao.
I love Tracey Ullman!!! She is just awesome no matter what she does.
Hello Linda hope you're okay?
I just realized the three-in-one magnet metaphor, so funny!!
That's awesome.
Excellent! Stupendously hilarious. BEIGE😂
For a minute I honesty thought that was actually Nicola Sturgeon. I was thinking 'she's laying on her accent a bit'. I thought it must be comic relief.
Omg that Nicola sturgeon is spot on haha
merkel dragged in to scotland against her will.
Merkel did some really bad things in her 12 year reign but she really didn't deserve this.
I wish someone brought me to Scotland :(
Beautiful country.
Merkel is Poland's Daughter ...
Bonnie Prince Charlie was Poland's Son too.
go poland.
''You'll live in only the nicest parts of Glasgow and drink the finest Irn-Bru''
always brilliant
The finest Iron bru. You know, I don't know why ppl hate Iron Bru, when I'm in the UK its my non alcoholic fav :)
its always either IRA or IRN wir you guys, right? ^^
Dylan Carter It's Irn Bru. Not "iron". And it's pronounced "Glasgae" not "Glarsgow"
Back when I was a child I was visiting my aunt and they had Irn Bru chewing candy and it pulled two of my teeth out. Never drank the stuff again :P
... I cant stop with laughing... best, best, best....
Truly remarkable! This woman is obviously mad 😂😂
this Birgit is great and looks really good with the haircut!
Wonderful, and i'm shure, Angela laughs her arse off, watching this!
It's funny but it's very true!Sturgeon has said that the Merkel vision for Europe is the best one!
C.J. Johnson shows the whole left wing vaneer with SNP is BS.
"You and I both know that nothing lasts forever. Merkel is finished. She's yesterday's woman!"
And in 2023 ....
Incredible!
She is so good. Forgot how good she can be 🤣😂otf
Is this a documentary ?
Five stars for the accents.
I was thinking that, but they have stuck some wierd laughing tracks over it 🤷🏼♂️.
Herrlich...
Just found this video and literally made my day!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
