When i was a child i simply thought that Bert was a supernatural immortal creature just like Mary Poppins herself, just a little less powerful.
Same
Hancock?
Yes I had this same theory! I legit believed that they both grew up in some other realm where everyone has some sort of magical ability (some more powerful than others). I could write a whole fanfiction XD
That’s cool!!
That sounds nice!
Does anything else think they would have made a cute couple
nancy Chrisp the whole world my dear friend...
Well, they are a couple in the book, but no in a explicit way. In the first version of the script, Disney wanted to Bert be the Mary Poppins love interested, but P. L. Travers doesn't like the idea, because her character was created to be a independent woman
nancy Chrisp I think so too
@@lucasmartinssaraiva1162 I still don't understand why 'independent' should mean 'loveless'. That's pretty dumb to say.
Yup. I do
When she said his blood was blue she meant he was a 'true gentleman' a kind person who would never harm anyone.
lilmisstarabear
Agreed. This video is far fetched littered with holes. “Really non of your nonsense”
You don't know that for a fact.
@@wrlSivan16 theories aren't supposed to be proven facts they are just supposed to have enough evidence it could be true which makes it fun to talk about. it would be called fan fact if it was proven.
I thought Mary and Bert were childhood friends and had untold feelings for each other.
I like this theory. But I've always supported the theory that Bert and Mary are a couple. Originally, there was supposed to be a love song between them, but it was scrapped because Walt did not think it appropriate for a child's film. In the book, the chalk picture scene is actually a DATE between the two. I think they are old friends who fell in love. Bert can't travel with her because he's a muggle. So she visits him every time she has a job to do.
Also the author of the books did not want a romance in the film supposedly
If only he was accepted into Hogwarts...
IntoTheFray the book implies some sort relationship be it a friendship or family or romance
Much of the lyrics to JOLLY HOLIDAY show the flirtation!
Totally dig ur harry potter reference 💜💙
Very interesting theory! Though, I always believed these two had a bit of a romance going on. I can't help shipping them. They're too sweet!
berrypie11 i thought they were in a relationship before when i watched the movie
It's one of those relationships where they are mutually interested but understand the reality that they could never be a serious couple with their lives the way it is so they settle for a close friendship that occasionally finds them going on casual outings.
heath slater one man band
with that in thought it makes me feel like how my mom and her best friend (who's a guy) had a close enough relationship that made you think they were a couple, but in turn, they were not. So I can see it like that, they're in a close enough relationship to where it's okay to like kiss each other on the cheek, but still be good enough friends to not be an actual couple
In one of the songs he sings he mentions that "everyone's in love with Mary" which includes himself but he knows he can't keep her to himself. In a line from a song that she sings and featured in this vid she talks about "You'd never think about pressing your advantage" it could also mean that while he had several opportunities to have his way with Mary he never would and stayed a gentleman. Which would strengthen their friendship and trust with each other but ended up putting him further into the Friend Zone with her as it would seem from that song he never tried to change their friendship into anything more. Which Bert seems to hold her in a form of awe and something you can't hold onto or obtain as he describes her to the kids. But it's also obvious he has feelings for her.
I can't help but mention this. "You'd never think of pressing your advantage." Is trying to force her into a relationship with him. That's what that older term means. They used it in reference to the old belief that men were stronger than women.
You're also misinterpreting the phrase 'underneath your blood is blue'. To say that underneath is to refer to under your skin, not something that is a physical or actual attribute, but something that you have shown through personality. It means that Bert is rich in personality, or behaves like the highest class. A gentleman.
Now, I've not read the books, but if the children can float with laughter too, I don't think it has anything to do with how they're related, unless you want to suggest that they're ALL related.
Exactly what I was thinking. He never tried to force himself onto her and she respected him for it. She even praises him for it. But while praising him for being such a gentleman it's like she's reminding him harshly... but also kindly... that even though everyone's in love with Mary none can be with her... even Burt. She's reminding him he's stuck inside the "Friend Zone."
Exactly. I think the floating while laughing is a metaphor for when you laugh, your heart and soul are lighter, therefore you can float.
I agree, and the misrepresented phrases bothered me too, but the part about Van Dyke playing two characters was a good point.
Skywiz well if their father is his brother... wouldn’t they be?
I think the fun thing about theories and analysis is that it is open to interpretation. It’s by no means a stretch to think that the writer of the song wrote it with dual meaning in mind.
Julie Andrews is so beautiful 😍😍😍
jessey. She still is, pity she can't sing anymore though. Heard of the Polyps in her throat incident? She had surgery to remove them which caused her to permanently lose her singing voice. But she wouldn't let that interfere with her acting or her life.
I always viewed them as a couple myself.
if Mary was Bert's nanny in the past, would that make her immortal? in the movie they appear to be the same age
Perhaps it was just when she started to do the nanny gig? Or that she's just a little bit older than him?
...or maybe she's some kinda goddess or curious kind spirit of some sort?
Maybe apart of her immortality makes her ageless?!
I would think she's like Nanny McPhee. In my mind, that means she'll be around whenever she's needed.
Yes! I agree!
Agreed!
also there is the joke Bert tells uncle Albert. "I once knew a man with a wooden leg named Smith, really what's the name of his other leg." which Jane and Michael tell to Mr Banks , which he tells to the owner of the bank. who laughed himself to death . so in a kind of morbid way. Bert made his father the happiest he had ever been.
I always thought of the whole "underneath your blood is blue" really meant something along the lines of, although you may be poor, really you're a gentleman at heart, that sort of thing. More metaphorical than fact. I think he is poor, always has been really, and Mary and Bert were supposed to be romantically involved with one another, but P.L. Travers didn't like the idea so it was cut. :-) I like to think they're secretly married or something XD
How would he have "traveled all around the world" if he was poor?
I really enjoy the idea of the banker owner being Bert's father, but I don't know if I like Mary being Bert's nanny. What if Bert overcame his bad childhood and met Mary during his travels.
Unit Jax. I theorised in another comment that Mary & Bert may possibly be Mother & Son in secret. In my theory Mary is the Estranged Wife of the Old Bank Manager, It was rare even for the rich to get a Divorce in those days because it was an extremely costly process so Mary did the next best thing. She leaves him taking Bert with her & sending him to live with another relative on her side of the family rather than leave him with his dad to be miserable. She left her husband because he loved his job more than his own family, we know that the Bank Manager had a Son who worked in the office with him & would no doubt take over 1 day, no doubt the old man had brainwashed him from an early age as it was expected for the eldest son to follow in the father's footsteps & also if that was the case it would have hurt Mary extremely to leave him behind. Why does Mary look young while 'her husband' is haggard looking? Well, doesn't work pressure affect one's mental state? Stress causes people to look older than they really are, which means Mary actually LOVES the job she does meaning she hardly shows her actual age.
Another superfan and myself have a theory that they were children together, Mary Poppins “discovering her powers” and helping Bert with his home life.
Actually David Tomlinson who is George Banks is uncredited as the voice of Mary Poppins Parrot on her Umbrella.
I always felt he sorta grew up with her and not under her. Since "Pressing one's advances" could also mean that while he had several chances of getting romantic with her he instead played a gentleman and didn't take advantage of her. Because of this she respects him but it seems she placed him into the 'Friend's Zone' even if he'd rather there was something more... cus Everyone's in Love with Mary... after all.
KitsuneNeko she says advantage not advances
I think that the main character and source of everything is actually Bert. he is like the conscience of life in London as is the setting of the story. He draws and creates stories and characters as he sees fit. He knows the children all too well, as well. Therefore, he sees that they are in trouble and creates Mary as the help to come and rescue their unbecoming behavior. We see some evidence of this when she stand before him and he draws her shadow/silhouette on chalk. Also at the beginning of the story, Bert says that he feels something is about to happen that has happened before. Why does he know every bit of facet of people's lives? He goes around the plaza telling everyone's story through song. He is also the conscience sorta speak of Mr. Banks towards the end, when he makes Banks realize what he ought to do. Then, we finally see Bert again selling the kites. This is the happy ending to the story. The main character, in depth, is Bert. the true story of wind beneath my wings. Bert stands in the shadow of his imagination.
SuperRoy I love this comment. I’ve always thought this! Although Mary has a very magical essence, I almost feel like Bert’s magic is even more prominent.
Love Mary Poppins. My favorite song is supercalifragilisticexpealidocious. This theory was awesome.
I'm happy you enjoyed it! I love that song, but my favorite is "A Spoon Full Of Sugar Go Down." Thanks for watching!
I think Mary Poppins was his Nanny when he was younger it makes sense why him and her know each other so well
John Panda maybe but weren't it be strange that the nanny falls in love with the man who she used to babysit when he was younger?
John Panda. I have a theory too. What if they were actually MOTHER & SON? Picture this, Mary was the estranged wife of the Bank Manager & was miserable being married to a guy who loved his work better than his family. Plus he was installing the beliefs he went by into his eldest son, practically brainwashing him while the younger son who we know as Bert was left to his own devices & was regarded as somewhat of a tearaway by his dad. Mary walks out of the family home taking Bert with her, she leaves Bert with relatives on her side of the family while she goes off to hunt for a job as a Governess or Nanny. You see, although you could divorce back then it was rare to do so because it was far too expensive even for rich people. In case you're thinking why Mary is young looking while her 'husband' (if he is that) is old & haggard looking, what do you think many years of toiling in a job you actually may not like does to you? The only reason he doesn't give it up is that it was a family run business passed down from father to eldest son for who knows how long.
LaBelleDame DuManor ....and this gave her special powers and abilities how?
"Because I was afraid to speak when I was just a lad, My Father gave me nose a tweak and told me I was bad."
He was being punished for not speaking up, probably when he was spoken to. This has nothing to do with punishing an attitude of positivity.
I really think you're taking the song too literally. It's kind of a nonsense song even though it does encourage that same positivity and social engagement. Burt's lines about meeting with heads of state sound to me like flights of fancy.
Daffy Stardust *Bert
I think Mary Poppins is a fairy godmother
Here's the Question for you. How did Mary Poppins got her powers?
Daniel Grubberg hogwart’s
Please do a full story of gaston!! I would love that!
Yes! Please!
I have a few I want to do first, but it definitely is coming! Thanks for watching!
We did this musical my freshman year at college, when the guy who played Bert gave his character's backstory he had said something like this, given research he also did,
Bert did come to his home when he was a child and he did grow up in a higher class home. When Mary Poppins was at his home he developed a crush, similarly to how Michael does in the musical version. Mary didn't save his father as she does Mr. Banks, which causes Bert to run away. Bert then goes on to learn different things in life, as he sings in the transition from "Lets Hope She Will Stay" to "Spoonful of Sugar"
"Me, I was told, when I was small, just learn a trade, so I learned 'em all"
Another theory we, as a cast, came up with was that Mary Poppins is a Time Lord, could you maybe do a video on that?
But Mary Poppins is a Time Lord confirmed!
Please explain
@@katherinkeegan8601 bag bigger on the inside, looks like they never age (or if you want you can class Emily Blunt as a regeneration), plus in one episode of Classic DW in Terror Of The Autons, a Time Lord appears in the sky using a cane, much like Mary Poppins (although this movie came before the episode) and her umbrella
@@me-dc8pj I have noticed over the last year that people have been connecting different genres that don't seem to be connected. No doubt as a result of the lockdowns.
I recently saw one connecting Mary to Pennywise. I didn't watch the video since I am not into horror. I did see A review of the movie that said Pennywise was an alien that could only be destroyed by an alien magic turtle (?). Not sure how that would connect to Mary.
I have always connected Mary to Nanny McPhee. Both use magic to teach children life lessons. Both teach lessons to the parents as well. Both stay young as their charges age. These ladies seem to prove there's a group/race with the same function of trying to educate the human race into better decision-making/life skills.
My understanding is the time lords protect the world from invaders. What other function do they fulfill that would include Mary and other nannies?
@@katherinkeegan8601 well it isn't particularly about "function" besides the Doctor is one of the only Time Lords who does anything to do with protecting anywhere from invasion. It's just a fun little theory that's been circling for a few years with some reasons that make it seem plausible. The Pennywise thing is strange but if people wanna say that then its fine
@@me-dc8pj I agree to each his own. Some people just get too intense for comfort over things. Have a good day.🙂
When I was little I always thought that they grew up together and were kind of romantic but he wouldn't "press his advantage" being a gentleman because she was magical and held to some rules of moving with the wind. But I guess the connection could be interpreted lots of different ways. No matter what the real story is I love it and I love the characters.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THEORY TO BE TALKED ABOUT
WELL DONE WOTSO VIDEOS
I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
I ship them they are PRACTICALLY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY
Perhaps the sequel that Disney is doing for Mary Poppins will answer some questions. Our practically perfect nanny returns with a colorful sidekick who supposedly was trained by Bert. 2018!
Awesome video! One of my favorite movies!!!
I really like it as well! Thanks for watching!
I kind of feel like Burt is a male counterpart to Mary. Sort of like her equal opposite and he basically does the same thing she does . He goes from place to place , job to job and meets people and tries to help them and fix their lives. Mary can be a bit snobby and abrasive but Burt is her opposite and is warm and comforting. Together they drive home the lessons the family needs to learn. Mr banks needed Burt in the movie to really see the truth as Burt said it in a quiet , simple and kind way.
I fee that Mary and Burt have a sort of friendship that has been going on for many years and it verges on the romantic but they never commit because they have a duty to help others
can you do a theory about how Mary Poppins can fly?
Yeah sure! I would love to explain the magic of Mary! Thanks for watching!
Wotso Videos thank you so so much!!!!!
The answer is simple *MAGIC*
This was beautiful thank you for this Wotso. I think Mary looked after Bert but they fell in love when he grew up but they couldn't be together which is really sad.
I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Mary Poppins was a student at Hogwarts
And Bert is a Squib.
No Mary is a timelord and Bert is the campanion
SO SHE BROKE THE STATUTE OF SECRECY
She was?
Oh my word I love this movie and I've been wondering about this theory for a while!! I love you Isaac, never stop theorizing!!!!!
Mary was a witch. Bert was her step brother? She taught him about magic and taught him to be positive?
MARY WASNT NO WITCH HOW DARE YOU
@spoonfedtwice 91 like she went to Hogwarts!?
I think the line "Underneath your blood is blue" means he has natural elegance and nobility.
He knows who she is because he never lost the child in himself. As in the second movie all the adults will forget all the magic, but the children won't...
True Thelma. I would love to go into that idea more: how does one keep their childhood alive to remember Mary Poppins?
I always thought that Mary was Bert's nanny when he was young. It's really clear that Mary is some magical creature, so I think she can live at least almost forever.
You just made me so happy!
I loved this video! Mary Poppins is my favourite movie of all time, I'm glad to see it get talked about!
I liked this theory, very heartwarming but a bit sad. Thanks for another great video! AND YOU have a magical day as well!
I like the theory, but why would he have a distinctly Cockney accent (or what is supposed to be) if he were from a wealthy family?
OR it explains why it's so bad :O
thank you for making this awesome vid❤❤❤
My pleasure! I'm happy you liked it. Thanks for watching!
I think Mary Poppins is immortal.
Nice theory! Bert was great. I can remember when I was a child (I'm almost 30 now) my grandmother played the Mary Poppins record. This beloved movie will most definitely be a part of my future children's lives. Both Bert and Mary are very inspiring, beyond wonderful people. Perhaps this is why I sought to ger along with so many adults growing up, I secretly imagined some were like the two of them. Actually, grandma was a lot like Mary. I'm grateful that she introduced them into my life as well!
Another great theory, Watso!
Thanks! I really grew an appreciation of this movie making this video! Thanks for watching!
OMG! You commented back *cries out of joy*
What I find interesting is how Mary Poppins always knows when to show up and help.
Thank u for explaining this.
Good video! I loved it! Absolutely amazing!
So how about Mary Poppins origin. I personally think she comes from Halloweentown. because in the Halloweentown movies there's a lot of similarities to Mary herself. such as Grandma Aggy having a simular bag to Mary and the fact that one of the ways to enter our world from Halloweentown is through the sky, and it would explain how Mary Poppins stays young before time almost doesn't exist in this parallel world. and who knows maybe Grandma Aggy and Mary Poppins even know each other
Could you possibly do a video on Nannyy McPhee's amazing abilities and her past?
Well thought out theory. Love it
Awesome video!!!
I'm happy you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
could you do something about the princess and the frog
Maybe he could do one about Tiana's mother, or the girl she's friends with.
11thShadowDragon yeah totally
I really love Princess and the Frog. I will definitely do something again on it. Thanks for watching!
Very interesting theory especially with Burt's up bring . I like it however o have to disagree with that Mary Poppins was Burts nanny. For starters the are both about the same age. But I do propose that instead Burt and Mary Grew up together. That he's the only one who recognized her coming back because he was there when she herself discovered it herself. It'll also explains why he recognizes her hat from her shadow. She's always worn it. I propose she loved him but then discovered with her powers she has to leave when the wind changes. That is why she's practically perfect, because she loves Butt and the children she cares for. That when she has a chance. She goes back when the wind changes.... at least those are my thoughts.
What a brilliant theory! When I first sad this movie as a kid I thought it was sad that Bert was so poor (with so many jobs) and yet so genuinely happy that I'd often wished for a sequel so that we could learn the secret of his happiness. Come on Disney Studios!!!!!
Who is Evangeline from Princess and the frog? Why is she a star? Why does Ray love her so much? Please do a video about it, thanks!
I have a theory all about that here: ruclips.net/video/vna2brE_WCk/видео.html You have to wait to get to the Evangeline reveal, but it's there! Thanks for watching!
Wotso Videos Thanks so much! I saw it, and it makes more sense already. Love your videos!! 😊😊😊
I enjoyed this video a lot.
Thank you! I'm happy you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
My theory always was that they were of the same kind/species/talent/purpose, but while Mary only pops up now and then, Bert stays on earth among the lower class, brightening their days while faking a really bad cockney accent, but since he's nice and popular, everybody goes along with it.
This makes me wish for a Mary Poppins prequel movie all about her and bert
Awesome vid!😃
Thanks! It was the first live action Disney theory I've ever done.
Wotso Videos It was really cool👍
Wotso Videos You should do more!
Without giving away any spoilers, one of your theories about Bert's life is further solidified in MARY POPPINS RETURNS
Poor bert he have a coldhearted father and brother
GREAT JOB
When I was in school every elementary school as "The Spring Musical Movie".
That is a very interesting concept.
So Mary turns Bert into a homeless drifter?
I have a new Harry Potter and the cursed child theory: Delphini is a horcrux.
Delphi is not Bellatrix' daughter, because she was 47 when she died and it would be unlikely if she gave birth with 47. Furthermore Delphini said that she was born in Malfoy Manor a few days/weeks before the battle of Hogwarts, which means that Draco must have known that Bellatrix was pregnant and he most likely knew that Voldemort is the father. But if this is true Draco would have told someone after the battle of Hogwarts.
I think that Delphi isn't the daughter of Bellatrix and she isn't the daugther of Voldemort either, because she is another Horcrux. That's why she can fly and speak parseltongue.
I have no idea who her real parents could be, but I have a theory about when and why Voldemort created this Horcrux.
It was on May 2, a few hours before the battle of Hogwarts and shortly after Voldemort realized that Harry was searching for his Horcruxes.
After he looked for the ring and realized that it was destroyed, he created a new Horcrux. Voldemort didn't know that Harry was a Horcrux and he thought that Harry would be thinking that a person can't be a Horcrux and he knew that Harry would never kill someone (except Voldemort himself) especially a little baby, so he made Delphini his new Horcrux. Maybe she was the daughter of a different Deatheater, but she wasn't Bellatrix' daughter or Voldemort's. That's why Delphi has the ability to fly and to speak parseltongue, because a part of Voldemort lives inside of her and this part made Harry's scar hurt. And since Delphini didn't die at the end of CC this means that Voldemort could still come back.
And being a Horcrux would make her a cursed child.
That's so cool!
Whoa! Great theory! Thanks for watching!
Wotso Videos Thanks, I really like you're channel :)
Laura that's a brilliant theory
Maybe. I've not read the Cursed Child myself, but it strikes me that making a child into a Horcrux is the exact sort of thing he might do when faced with the possibility Harry might find all of the Horcruxes. Think about it. This is a guy who split his soul seven ways to ensure he could continue to survive. While he is arrogant enough to believe he could live forever, he is also a planner, he takes precautions, hence the six intentional horcruxes. He prepared for the possibility that someone might learn of the secret and succeed in destroying them. Furthermore, at one point he says "I, who have walked further along the path towards immortality than any other" At first this statement seems like pure arrogance until you look at it more closely. "Walked further along" would seem to indicate that he recognizes he is still mortal, if difficult to kill permanently. Upon realizing Harry not only knew about the horcruxes but had destroyed not one but three of them, I think it perfectly plausible he might have taken steps to protect himself in the event Harry succeeded in getting at the others.
And why would he tell anyone? Voldemort never truly trusted anyone but himself after all. He never told Lucius what the Diary really was. The only one who half-way understood was Wormtail, and only because Voldemort needed his help to perform the ritual of resurrection. Crafting the impossible to confirm story that Delphini was in fact his daughter would have disguised her true purpose, while simultaneously setting her on a path that might lead her to him someday. When it was safe to return. When no one was watching or expecting it.
Hey Wotso, do you think that there is connection between the flights in Peter Pan that are powered by happy thoughts and the flights in Mary Poppins that are powered by laughter?
I love all your video and you or Good at them 😣
I've been wanting to know about this since I was little when I saw this movie
The theory of Old man Doss being Bert’s dad would then make the song Bert sings to Mr. Banks toward the end seem like he is talking about what happened to himself when he was a kid. “You gotta grind grind grind at that grindstone, though childhood slips like sand through a sieve. And all too soon they’ve up and grown and then they’ve flown. And it’s too late for you to give.”
I'm gonna cry
Great vid
Nice try, but the reason why Mary is only practically perfect is because of her vanity.
Thinking of Bert's life and how Marry Poppins probably tried really hard to help him in the past makes me think there was something more between the two
I think that Mary Poppins is the daughter of a Time Lord and a witch. I have a theory that connects her with Doctor Who, Harry Potter and of course Disney.
I love this movie 😍it holds up so well.
My school and I are doing Mary Poppins the musical and we just had our opening night. This popped up and I was like "that's convenient!" 😋
My fave disney movie of all time
Perhaps:
- Bert is a Herald (like Silver Surfer) for Mary Poppins (Galactus)
- Mary Poppins is the Doctor (carpet bag bigger on the inside etc) and Bert is a companion
I thought she meant he's a noble kind of guy? Like she didn't mean he was literally a blue-blood? Like saying he has a heart of gold.
I rewatched Mary Poppins and there is a brief moment when Bert walks with Mary while on his knees in the stroll in "Jolly Holiday" that may have been for comedic purposes but it gave me a quick thought that Mary Poppins was Bert's nanny when he was a child but I do love the subtle romantic connection the two have.
Hogwarts... They met at hogwarts... Bert was a squib basically a happier version of filch before he left, Mary Poppins was a Ravenclaw.
👏 spot on 😂
LOL! That is JUST so funny...I'm floating on the ceiling! I must be related! HA!
Hmm, i never broke down the lyrics to the song to hear his backstory or piece it together. i do believe he may have been one of the kids she nanny ed, cause that would explain quite a lot. cool about his parents though and how there connected! lol
Now I'm even more curious about the direction of the books.
Wow, I haven't seen that movie in forever- I'd never even thought about that! I think Burt was one of her charges at one point! it all seems to fit! Awesome investigation skills there!
Do you have any theory's on bedknobes and broomsticks any for Ms. Price ?
i didn't think i'd see the day there would be a mary poppins theory.
I always thought that Mary knew Bert when he was a child but listening to your theory I'm more inclined to think now that Bert and Mary were very distant cousins with uncle Albert being their uncle from different sides of the family and that's how they knew each other but not Dawes snr being Bert's father
I always got the impression that they grew up together. And that they cross paths anytime she is in town. And there seems to be a bit of a romance between them (he has a thing for her she likes him back but because she never stays they can't be together and he has reluctantly respected that and not pushed the issues).
Poppins is a Ravenclaw graduate that visits and test the magic of potential wizards and witches to come by disguising herself as a nanny. That's why the children were able to snap their fingers and cause the room to clean. She put her wand into an enchanted walking stick and has a bag of holding. She happened to be in the area where her old squib friend Bert and her elder wizard Uncle Albert who could very well be an ex professor of Hogwarts. She does get in a bit of trouble revealing her magic to the Muggles ( aka All of the Chimney Sweepers or the Banks parents) but seems to be overlooked by the ministry quite a bit.
Love this
i love this theory and i love this movie
I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
I knew it! Yes, she once was his nanny when he was younger :)
Love the outtro music from kerbal. ;)
There’s friend-zone, and then there’s Bert and Mary Poppins friend-zone.
Mary Poppins is so MAGICAL.. almost timeless.. I almost wonder if BERT was one of her children that she used to be a nanny too..
I do feel it's a timeless story. It's so great! Thanks for watching!
