So many people watching this just don't seem to get it and take offence. It's not about laughing at foreigners. It's really about being in a european country and not knowing anything about the language or the culture (e.g. on a cheap holiday). Everything looks funny. You hear words in your own language that aren't there. Things don't make sense. I'm spanish and I think it's hilarious. It's obviously a mix of greece, portugal, spain and middle europe - places people go on holidays to. the end
Martolov Exactly! I think Whitehouse said it was about coming back to your hotel room drunk and turning on the television and not having a clue what was going on. The production values and fashions are ripping the kind of TV they had abroad though.
I remember watching the BBC news in a hotel I was staying in in the UK years ago with a Canadian who was also staying there. She kept bursting into laughter and told me that it was because the stiff upper lip presenters and their deadpan delivery reminded her of every parody of Britain she had seen on North American comedy shows and also Monty Python. It was the seriousness with which even trivial news items were presented that really made her laugh. She apologised for laughing. But then I started laughing too because I could suddenly see how strange and amusing it must have seemed through the eyes of a foreigner.
Absolutely right! I'm portuguese and I find it hilarious. One of them clearly says «obrigado» (portuguese for thank you) completely out of context... When I watch bulgarian or romanian channels they have this strange and hilarious feeling that they caprtured quite well. Bouthros Bouthros Ghali
Does anyone remember the episode where the weather girl causes panic whan she sticks a cloud on the map and says "Cumulus!"? Absolute classic. Brilliant show.
The channel they were ripping up was a free Mexican channel on British sky in the early nineties called 'Galavision' which was channel 44 - I watched it often to practice my Spanish.
Good to know the inspiration for it. Cracked me up when I first saw it years ago. I always refer to hot weather as scorchio in a Paula voice and watch people who don't know this sketch look at like I'm weird 🤣🤣🤣
Mexico does have a channel 9 that was called "Galavision" as well, though it looks like they now call it "Nueve". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nueve_(Mexican_TV_network)
There's definitely some italian in there. I'm italian myself, and whenever I say "molto molto" (meaning "very very") I can't help but add "kinagrophos" in my mind. Molto molto kinagrophos! Tefaselos action-pumpo.
THE best comedy skit show ever. The jokes on politics, society, economy and the world at large are fantastic and very true. Wish they had continued with more seasons... And yes some Americans do get British humor.
Bunch of plastics. Some of us still support the real teams. AFC Silence will thrash you all next season. We won the Copa del El Presidente last year and we’ll do the double this year.
Actually I hate to say this, but Chanel 9 actually does exist. When I was in Las Vegas last year I used to watch a channel called "Telemundo" which was the Spanish Language station. Telemundo actually sounded EXACTLY like Chanel 9. All that was needed was a woman to go around saying "Scorchio!"
America technically has a number of Spanish language channels on the air, mostly in the south and in larger cities. The two big networks are Univision and Telemundo. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Univision en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telemundo
The guys were always funny. But the best bit for me was always Caroline Aherne's weather girl Poula Fisch. Remember the episode when she presented it by jumping onto floating pontoons?
That was a reference to Fred Thompson, who used to do the ITV weather on floating pontoons in the shape of Britain and Ireland in Albert Dock, Liverpool, jumping between the two and hopefully not into the water. Unfortunately, he was found to have had been a "wrong 'un" in his previous career as a teacher in a boys' school, so that's what he's known for.
@Rexel2828 it is funny if you were around in the 90s and can remember analogue sky TV which had other European channels mixed in amongst the English ones and those are what they are parodying here. Funny then but it is dated now
El ScorchioooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooo god I love that show
@@ShaunTheCHB She died 2nd of July 2016 of Lung Cancer, she was also going blind from a rare form of Retinal Cancer too. She was a very sick lady sadly.
The best joke about the “Gizmo” is its price (displayed at 1:20): ₵5,600,750,398:99. (Or, knowing the Chanel 9 universe, in sterling terms, about 99p.)
Today, I am mainly watching Chanel 9 after a 9-year break.

It's a bit about laughing at foreigners. Which is fine. Foreigners are welcome to laugh at us. Everyone laughs.

Well, you have to give credit to Interupter Bastardo. Their team was strong that season.
Really? I'm a fan of Sporting Club Bang.
The Gizmo gag is something that I will never understand how I can keep laughing over and over again.
It’s about watching adverts in a language you don’t speak and not getting any context clues as to what is being advertised.
I'm always laughing while simultaneously trying to work out what possible use it could have.
My subconscious just doesn't seem that it's a comedy. lol

I pissed myself laughing when that one was aired.

I always use "Bono estente!" as a greeting. People usualy ask, am I learning Portuguese or something...

I ought to say, your nickname in portuguese sounds like a very dirty word . Not making this up.

I do that too :D
I sometimes say "Boutros-Boutros Ghali" instead of "bye"
Its Esperanto
This was, in my opinion, the best bit about the Fast Show! Mentale! Boutros-Boutros Ghali.
