His spoken German is right on point!! It was perfect. As for his upper class Brit voice (as a Brit myself) was astoundingly good! ("we own Cirencester" and "my family own the north east of Scotland") And the New York drone!! I nearly wet myself laughing... best NY accent I have ever heard.
Although Germany often bears the brunt of Al Murray's routines as as a serious historian he has a fascination for the real Germany. He did a two part documentary a few years back (Al Murray's German Adventure) where he sets out to discover the truth behind the wartime jokes and banter that still plague all things German. Well worth a watch if you can find it.
@@raistormrs Couldn't agree more my friend. Unfortunately with Brexit we are a country that increasingly looks backwards to the past for our self esteem and self image.
@@Mk1Male What's your point mate? Why so angry? What part of my innocuous statement of facts triggered you? Let's hear it? Or is mouthing off incoherently about the total limit of your intellectual prowess. Seems like you may have issues. I'd get help for that if I were you or lie down in a darkened room for a bit. You'll feel better. Enjoy the rest of your evening and chill out man.
The internet went out - how bloody rude - you didn't even get invited. We're not racist, we take the piss out of everyone including ourselves🇬🇧 As for teaching, we walked in to our school science lab, to find our teacher swinging from a rope yelling "I'm a Pendulum", Al reminds me of him so much.
Not all. The other guys on the Frankfurt trading floor were all named after famous ww2 german bombers or fighter planes (to fit in with Fritz Messerschmitt), but that seemingly passed them by.
@@revbenf6870 and the dog name reference, from the same era, but more obscure. From Dambusters, was the actual name of one of the pilots (squadron leaders?) dogs, and a call sign I think for the successful raid on one of the dams.
I think this is his best sketch and is probably very close to what actually happens on the markets. Al Murray is brilliant and his caricatures are what makes his act so good. Very clever guy.
Al loves history, he has done a fantastic couple of series called "why does everyone hate the English" & "Why does England win every war" . If you can get either of them they are definitely worth a watch
I really enjoy seeing you guys getting such a kick out of Al's stuff. I hope some day you get round to watching Al Murray National Anthems, I think you may have quite an experience with it.
I work on the London global financial markers in IT not real trading, this is actually pretty accurate, especially the not very clever London Essex barrow boys! Hilarious!
This is just awesome. I'm a walking sack of misery living here in London, UK. This had me in hysterics.. Al Murray's delivery is just so so good. He has comic timing down to a fine art. It was funny enough; But to see the reaction from these two American guys is the icing-on-the-cake.
The joke about the black Labrador is a reference to the Classic British war movie The Dam busters. The crew of the plane had a black Labrador. The dogs name in the film was that word. It’s now been overdubbed for modern times. Loved this!
@@jamesrawlings5781 Yes, so...!? 'The name of The Dam Busters’ dog will not be altered when a restored version of the 1955 film is screened in cinemas across the country to mark the 75th anniversary of the mission it was based on, it has been confirmed.'
The German guy is talking about football result where they won - and starts singing "You're shit, and you know you are". It's was a common chant at football grounds in England from the fans of the winning team. Said in German it's particularly true as Germany have a VASTLY better football history than England. As The Guv' would say "war history, not so f**kin' good"
Hi gents i hope you are well? I finally got to see Al live in April! He is so good throughout his show, i got my bf to come as well, whos lived in the middle east for the last 20+ years and didnt know Als work. He howled through out the show, as did the rest of us. It was a 2hr show and he spent the first half taking the piss out of the front 8 rows and he is so good at that. He did his homework to given he was here for 1 night only. Weve become a logistics hub due to the good road links we have. He also talked about brexit, not surprising as our area is a large brexit supporting area. It was a great night and something ive wanted to do ever since i first saw Al all those years ago. Ps id recommend looking up an interview with Al done by a gentleman called Rob Bryden, who is also a good comic/actor. He talks about how he created the pub landlord character. I think you may enjoy it.
Awesome vid as always, please keep the Al Murray stuff coming........... I dont know much about global finance.. just that we are f*****d! Laughed my ass off!xxxx
Al Murray portrays 'The British Pub Landlord' his earlier show Al Murray's pub quiz was hilarious and also full of general knowledge. Also saw this live at Edinburgh Fringe Festival...embarrassingly came last in the pub quiz he gave me a Pop Tart. Fun guy by far!!
He's the guy behind the bar who's remained sober for every overhead conversation in the hundred different pubs in the hundred different areas over a lifetime of regretting not getting further with the history degree that he kept quiet. He's the man who has also remembered and analysed the drunken chat and found his own cynical philosophy that mirrors the vast percentage of the British working class . Also a well constructed caricature of himself😊
I can answer that Spencer, I live in Mallorca and if there is one thing we have here, is Germans, as all the British holiday makers know. And the answer is Yes, AL's Germans impresion is spot on👌perfect, they love to think they're always right about everything. Sorry Germans, don't get angry but that bit is true.
As someone that has played online games with many random germans, I can say they are that excited and talkative, it can take a little getting used to :D
The accents he uses for the London traders are a play on cockneys (who burn stuff down) while the boss is a posh person who goes shooting. The black lab is a reference to a famous WW2 bomber pilot's dog called N***er who was killed the night of the famous raid (Guy Gibson of Dambusters ). Before 1988 the people who worked in finance were generally posh people but after deregulation allowed a lot of ordinary London lads to get in on the game.
We are justifiably proud of Al Murray - I am deeply impressed that you can follow his rapid-fire humour - and even laugh when he has a go at the US! He is an equal opportunities satirist!
I went to see Al Murray in February. 1st tour back from COVID. Did not disappoint. Wasn’t the best but it was a smaller tour testing new material. Was great.
The stereotype of the London traders is that they're all working class market porters (we call them 'barrow boys') who are gambling with other people's money on the Stock Exchange. Their boss though is upper class, he owns the company.
Easy lads, hope you've had a good Monday, he was absolutely talking about the football chant Daniel, it was Englands World Cup tune and it was so good that even the Germans nicked it and started singing it, however when you scrutinise it's actually nice that our song was sung by World Cup Winners becuse I don't see England winning it anytime soon. We've got closer but we just haven't got that killer instinct and know-how to see a game out that the Germans, Italians and Spanish have.
You should also check out "Al Murray's Happy Hour". A TV chat show he did as Pub Landlord. He had celebrity guests, including lots of Americans. Would be good for reaction.
The black Labrador joke is a reference to the WW2 film about the dambusters raid where the squadron mascot was a black Lab called Niger which can no longer be broadcast without dubbing despite this being a historical fact.
If you want to see something a big different with Al Murray the look up taskmaster. Season 3 with dave Gorman rob Beckett Paul choudhrey and Sara Pascoe. To be fair all 13 seasons have great British comedians and is well worth it. You would enjoy joe Wilkinson and the hole in one potato
Hi guys, brilliant video. Just wondering how Al Murry would go down at the Oscars as the host !!. Now, wouldn't that be something, I for one would love it !!.
For the record incase it was missed, the german guy shouting "wo ist steiner" and then shooting himself is a reference to the most famous scene from the film downfall, where hitler blows up when he finds out that the planned counter attack by general steiner, on which he had placed all his hopes, wasnt going to happen because steiners forces were nowhere near as strong as hitler thought they were when he gave the order. The shooting is obv a reference to hitlers suicide.
Genius! And one of the main reasons he's loved around the world , they all know, he's taking the piss out of those upper echelons of English society that think they're better than the rest of us. And that's fine by us, coz we've been shafted by our own country since Noah was a boy
1:00... His first comments are digs at members of the audience that he had interacted with before this clip. Generally about their jobs or where they came from or live. 4:22... There must be a banker in the audience. 22:25... Old people also. 26:40... You don't want to sit in the front row when you do go. He always asks questions of the audience sitting in the front rows and then makes reference to them during the rest of the show.
As a humble chef at a Hotel, an hour and a half away by the Motorway, or 40 my Minutes away by Helicopter! These “ Gentlemen “, would frequently run up DRINKS (Not Food) bills of £500 for lunch!!!
He's not portraying Goblins, but the traders, many are Essex geezers. That side of London and into Essex it was easy to access the City and the London Stock Exchange, stations like the terminus of Fenchurch Street being not far away. The call about wanting the money back is from Ireland. During the late 90's and up to the stock market crash in 2007/8 the economy and investment in the Republic of Ireland went bananas. The phenomenon was called the Celtic Tiger. Banks were falling over themselves to lend money, that was until the stock market crash, then strangely they wanted it all back even more quickly.
The London traders' voice is Essex wideboy. A lot of them really are like that. Flash cars, designer gear and common as muck. The boss is Old Etonian. Very posh.
For those who struggle with the intricacies that Mr Murray gets into with the German language, a rough translation (based off of some pretty basic German I learnt, about 15 years ago, so apologies if it’s not 100%) Sketchy Translation: “Hello England! This is Frankfurt here, Frankfurt calling you, calling you, England! Hello England, this is Frankfurt here, my little English friend. This is Frankfurt! Germany, Germany calling you! Germany calling you, England! I want to speak with England please! Please, England! England, This is Germany here! Germany, I want to speak with England, with the London Stock Exchange please! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello?! Germany here! Germany calling you my friend! I want to speak with England!” Addition: ‘Fritz’ Is obviously a stereotypical German name, popularly used as a derogatory catch-all for Germans during and after WW2 ‘Messerschmitt’ is a manufacturer of, among other things, German military airplanes of the same era, and the ‘109’ refers to a fighter plane made by Messerschmitt, the ‘Bf 109’. Sketchy Translation: “Ah, Hello England, my friend England! How are you this morning, it is a nice morning in Frankfurt and the sun is shining etc… Very good! Hey, the World Cup was very good, yeah? Hahahaha, we have won, yeah! Germany, we are the champions of the world! And you were out in the first round! England out in the first round!! You are shit at football! 🎶 You are shit, and you know you are! You are shit, and you know you are You are shit, and you know you are! You are shit, and you know you are!! Yoooooouuu are shit! 🎶 🎶 It’s coming home, it’s coming home! Footballs coming home, it’s coming home!🎶 Hey, and in the final, we have given a good ass-fucking! Yeah, we have given them a good ass-fucking to Argentina…” “Ah very good, over here in Germany, we want to know whether …. is going higher this morning, or it’s going lower, what do you think? Higher or lower, what do you think my English friend, higher or lower?” “Yes, that’s very good England, thank you very much! Hey, Brazil, 7-1?! That was unbelievable eh? We have given them a good ass-fucking hey? Goodbye Pele! Goodbye, bye bye, bye, bye bye. … Germany, Germany, the best at football. Bye!” My Japanese lip-reading isn’t very good I’m afraid...
I was lipreading the Japanese. While the oral translations were really brief and compact he actually had an incredible, nuanced dialogue in Japanese that was so native, so authentic it brought tears to my eyes. I can't be bothered to type all of it so you'll just have to trust me.
His spoken German is right on point!! It was perfect. As for his upper class Brit voice (as a Brit myself) was astoundingly good! ("we own Cirencester" and "my family own the north east of Scotland") And the New York drone!! I nearly wet myself laughing... best NY accent I have ever heard.

Good spot on the "football is coming home".

Just wondering how Al Murry would go down at the Oscars as the host !!.
Now, wouldn't that be something, I for one would love it !!.
For the record incase it was missed, the german guy shouting "wo ist steiner" and then shooting himself is a reference to the most famous scene from the film downfall, where hitler blows up when he finds out that the planned counter attack by general steiner, on which he had placed all his hopes, wasnt going to happen because steiners forces were nowhere near as strong as hitler thought they were when he gave the order. The shooting is obv a reference to hitlers suicide.
Great stuff mate, glad I wasn't the only one to get it

British humour at its best guys, he is truly educated in history and has a face even a mother could hate 😂 god bless America 🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
Have you ever watched any of his documentaries with Henning Wehn (a German comedian) both have great mutual respect and extremely funny
1:00... His first comments are digs at members of the audience that he had interacted with before this clip.
Generally about their jobs or where they came from or live.
4:22... There must be a banker in the audience.
22:25... Old people also.
26:40... You don't want to sit in the front row when you do go. He always asks questions of the audience sitting in the front rows and then makes reference to them during the rest of the show.

For those who struggle with the intricacies that Mr Murray gets into with the German language, a rough translation (based off of some pretty basic German I learnt, about 15 years ago, so apologies if it’s not 100%)

Please, England!
England, This is Germany here! Germany, I want to speak with England, with the London Stock Exchange please!
Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello?!
Germany here!
Germany calling you my friend! I want to speak with England!”
Addition:
‘Fritz’ Is obviously a stereotypical German name, popularly used as a derogatory catch-all for Germans during and after WW2
‘Messerschmitt’ is a manufacturer of, among other things, German military airplanes of the same era, and the ‘109’ refers to a fighter plane made by Messerschmitt, the ‘Bf 109’.
Sketchy Translation:
“Ah, Hello England, my friend England!

Other than misspelling aeroplane and arse fucking, pretty good! 👍👍
I was lipreading the Japanese. While the oral translations were really brief and compact he actually had an incredible, nuanced dialogue in Japanese that was so native, so authentic it brought tears to my eyes.
I can't be bothered to type all of it so you'll just have to trust me.
