Never cease to amaze me how both Brit’s and Americans, when attempting to have fun with Scandinavians, always bring on people who speak English with a heavy German accent, and in this case also have one of them dressed in an Austrian costume! Whatever it is none of the figures has the slightest resemblance to anything Swedish!
Another great one from the Two Ronnies is a Ronnie Barker solo sketch "Mispronunciation". Ronnie Barker wrote most of the material for the show and he loved language and word play which is why it crops up a lot in the sketches.
This is a memorable sketch , it only works if you think of a Scandinavian person speaking English and very clever - probably an inspiration when text messaging came along . It did end a little abruptly but this was a part of a longer show and it was just right . If it had got a bit more complicated they would have lost the audience . It's another example of how good the two Ronnies were and how well they complimented each other . Loved your reactions to this one .

The ones you mentioned you didn't get: X was Eggs, M was Ham and V was 'We' but pronounced as if said by a German where the 'W' is said as a 'V' so pronounced 'Ve'
I was a bit surprised you didn't get MNX. It wasn't that long ago when you reacted to My Blackberry Won't Work and their "Xbox". Also, the waitress was literally carrying ham as others have pointed out.
"Two Rooneys" is a terrifying or awesome concept to a Brit depending on which camp you are in. Look up Wayne Rooney, the football supporters love or hate equivalent of 'Marmite.'
Been looking through your reactions to c if u have watched this I've only just seen this have a look at the top 15 iron bru adda I laughed my socks off
I get that it's old and that it's comedy, but as a Swede it gets really tiredsome and annoying when it's suppose to be a Swedish accent but it's frickin ALWAYS a very clear German accent. I mean, at least do your homework for once!
I think they are making fun of the way some people confuse the Swedes with the Swiss. That's why customer-Ronnie is dressed in a more typical Alpine fashion.
@@andywatts8654 there's a reason most comedians have their time on television then disappear, as comedy moves on and most comedians routines become dated and not relevant. i remember loving the two ronnies as a kid especially the phantom raspberry blower sketches but nowadays it's just a bit cringe, nostalgia has a lot to do with clouding peoples perception of memories of years gone by... jist like cars from the 70's and 80's, they were mostly unreliable rust buckets but people keep looking back and think they where amazing pieces of engineering. party food of vol-au-vents and cocktail sticks with pickled onion cheese and ham fashioned into a hedgehog display.... try putting that out a party nowadays to see the laughs
The woman was carrying Ham on the plate, so when he said 9 (“No” in German. It’s “Nay” in Swedish, but using a bit of comedic license) V.F.N.10.E.M (we haven’t any Ham) the other Ronnie said I.F.C.D.M (I have seen the Ham).

X = eggs and M = Ham
I saw this sketch when it was originally shown in the mid 70’s. So pleased you have found this. One of my favourites.
Me too, fell on the floor at the last comment and still do to this day LMFAO!
Can’t believe you can’t expand your minds to this sketch

Ham and EGGS! Lol!! And she says that there are no EGGS because she has eaten them! Lol! Hope that helps? x

Was he Richard Wiley was that Barker's pseudonym?
@@maudeboggins9834 Gerald Wiley was his main one among others
@@mossyman65 Of course Gerald. Thank you.
You should do some of their musical numbers. They’re legendary.
Especially The Short And Fat Minstrel Show.

You probably aren't wrong , especially with the 9 .
At school, the week after, we were trying all this out.
Ham and eggs.
X is Eggs 😊😊😊❤
Jodi gets more gorgeous every time I log in. xx Bravo, excellent pick!! You might like Mispronunciation with Ronnie Barker.
Fun fact. Ombudsmann is a word used in English, German, Swedish, Norwegian & Danish. Maybe even Icelandic.
WATCHING AMERICANS STRUGGLE WITH BRITISH 🇬🇧 ACCENTS🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😵💫😵💫😵💫🙋♂️🤷♂️
The joke is the Norwegian accent. So We sounds like V, Eggs sounds like X, Ham sounds like M etc
It was fun watching two teachers figuring it out I enjoyed that one.
V F X = we have eggs F U N E X = have you any eggs
The beginning of text speak.
This reminds me of a little ditty we learned as kids ... YYUR, YYUB, ICUR, YY4Me
YY = Too wise ;o)
In the same vein ... ABCD Goldfish, MNO Goldfish, OSAR, CDBDIIIIIIIIII, ORMR Goldfish.
X N M = Egga and Ham.
I think you'd enjoy their Mastermind sketch or their Mispronunciation sketch.
Not Mastermind. It requires too much local knowledge.
@@helenwood8482 Americans that I've seen watching have really enjoyed it, depsite the local details. I think Nick & Jodie will enjoy it too.
Didn't realise that was how Swedish works
Well that was irritating! 😆

It's really simple M = ham x = eggs
The M should have been easy because she had the ham on the plate.
X = eggs
As a Swede i can say that was not what i expected......
MNX- ham and eggs
You also have to remember that in the UK we pronounce Z as Z, rather than Z.
3rd picture is Gina Lollobrigida Italian Beauty.
See how you get on with there nudge wink musical comedies ,
high light of there shows
The ones you mentioned you didn't get: X was Eggs, M was Ham and V was 'We' but pronounced as if said by a German where the 'W' is said as a 'V' so pronounced 'Ve'
Omg. M N X ham and eggs. F U N E. have you any.
I was a bit surprised you didn't get MNX. It wasn't that long ago when you reacted to My Blackberry Won't Work and their "Xbox". Also, the waitress was literally carrying ham as others have pointed out.
How can you say you enjoyed it and do not understand HAM (M) and EGGS(X)?
Lol I find that a lot with Americans reacting to British comedy. They laugh... But don't get it
ham and Eggs
S V F X yes we have eggs
Excellent. Do you suppose you could start doing full episodes of QI?

G.R.8, V.D.O. 😁
Can’t believe you didn’t get it. Ham and Eggs.
Eggs and ham

The irony is, most Scandinavians speak better, clearer English than a lot of Brits!! 🤣
I'd love to see you trying one letter phrases. C.U.🧸🧸
Maybe react to it again now that everyone has explained what M.N.X ham.n.eggs is.
Ronnie C sounds more Scottish than Swedish
Good,but the 'Arab with a shopping list' sketch is better.
V.F.X. we have eggs.
Thank you
X is Eggs
V = we many people can't correctly say the English letter W they say it as V.
Do you have any ham and eggs
please react to this hilarious and funny sketch "Russian comedy sketch Uralskie Pelmeni "Supermarket" with English subtitles"
How can you get this wrong, they literally have an ham when saying m.
x was eggs. m was ham.
I get that it's old and that it's comedy, but as a Swede it gets really tiredsome and annoying when it's suppose to be a Swedish accent but it's frickin ALWAYS a very clear German accent. I mean, at least do your homework for once!

Guys, please react to Foil Arms and Hog's immigration interviews. Love from Karachi
Don't need an accent to understand eggs was X
I didn't pick up on it. Good on you for picking up on it so easy.
M N X Ham and eggs
They were in Restaurant if you didnt get X 🥚 and M 🐖 what did you get. The waitress literally had the Ham on the tray🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The accent was german and not even remotely close to swedish or norwegian.. :-)
No disrespect, but only one of you gets this funny video & can follow the use of letters. I will leave it to you to decide who gets it & who does not.
Good God no! You can hardly handle English now you're having a knock at Swedish. My condolences to Sweden.
