I’ve only watched the first couple of minutes, but am in awe of the way the scriptwriter (or writers) captured how people who abuse their power can distort the truth, intimidate and humiliate innocent people who pose no threat, behave unprofessionally but so self righteously that it can be extremely hard to stand up for oneself!!

@Brad Smith "Dutchman stereotypes" are about as relevant for Afrikaners as British stereotypes for Americans. Even less so since They're not even the same language anymore.
Am I the only one who thought the funniest part of this skit was when the two stewardesses suddenly went silent as the black passenger boarded the plane? lol
You are not the only one...I laughed so hard that I had to restart the video as I'd missed half the damned thing! I still laugh every time I watch this. 😂
She's definitely a nervous flyer. The wife is definitely an alcoholic. And that selfish vegetarian was definitely raising her voice. They have all upset that poor disabled child.
I think I could brew a whole pot of tea, drink it and watch this over and over until it's gone 😂 I was laughing about three seconds into it and didn't stop
That Gary Glitter detail is such an intensely accurate detail - my mother grew up in South Africa and he was known to visit where she lived and request South African girls no older than 13
***** Not all South Africans are rude & arrogant. Just like not all French people are rude towards foreigners. It's just a common stereotype far from the actual truth
I had a couple of (somewhat) lengthy visits in ZA with a very comfortable Afrikkans family in the 2000s'. My host and her family and friends and associates were the most civil and kind people I could ever hope to meet. But, they did not tolerate rudeness or suffer fools. Any of the critical remarks that I witnessed were well-deserved, delivered constructively in a very direct proper manner. However, I think I can understand how someone unfamiliar with the culture might be put off by some of the more boisterous individuals one can encounter. This was all endearing to me; they were the most genuine/authentic people I have ever had the pleasure to know.
I had an Afrikaner instructor at university. My classmates and I were terrified of her. She had zero tolerance for laziness, inattentiveness, sloppy work, or coming to class unprepared, and she was quick to let us know, in no uncertain terms.

As a childless nervous flyer (claustrophobia not flying) who is overweight and has psoriasis, (skin condition lol?) I still find this hilarious. And also take your own water on board! 😂😂😂
As a former childless and overweight nervous flyer let me tell you flying with children while still being overweight and nervous is about the 5th circle of hell 😵💫
Oh and where do they let you take your water on board? I usually (and by usually I mean every 3 years when I can't avoid it) fly from Vienna and they make you pour out all your water before security check because it might be explosive liquid, then give you the option of buying a small bottle for the price of a Magnum Dom Perignon or refill your empty bottle from the luke warm taps in the smelly windowless bathrooms
This sketch of comedy television show is a masterpiece of both script-writing and acting. It plays with elements of British nonsense literature, as the absurdity of the situations aboard, absurdity that makes a lot of sense, though, renders it hilarious. Stereotypes about Afrikaners are handled to make the audience laugh, yet at the same time Afrikaner females are portrayed as tough when handling the terrorist, albeit they are also hilariously bad-mannered and ill-tempered; and beautiful!
Don't know how i got here but this is how fly attendants are today in the US they thought it was a joke back when this show was made but today it's reality
I have never known South Afrikaners to be rude, passive aggressive, insulting or domineering. I have always found them to be warm, kind, sensitive and gentle people. They are a delight and Quaht frenklee thir kawndness shood bee sullybrahted.

They remind me of people I work with....

They did have, it was called Beehive, which is where the sketch came from back in 2008
