this guy seems weirdly familiar?
Yeah, i also think so
niice
Do you know him? 🤔
i thought that too
I thought that hmmm
You are the one person that actually crushed the meme: "Oh, so you've studied Shakespeare. Name all the plays he wrote." 😂
YES
And then he did most of them IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER
Name them. Easy. But he did them folio order and I have to just gracefully bow down
I expected it to be one of those videos 🤣
He definitely looked them all up before though
"Oh I don't have to do it in chronological order" - proceeds to continue doing it in chronological order
excuse me WHAT - he just casually named ALL of the Shakespeare plays - WHAT AN ABSOLUTE ICON.
I doubt he has read them all though. And he had time to prepare this before filming. No reason to be impressed.
@@ericaabawe8038 or maybe he has read them all and can actually remember them ... idk just a thought 🤯
@@tarynrebe I very much doubt it. I think you are giving him credit for being much better read than he actually is.
@@ericaabawe8038 Why are you assuming so much about him. I studied English Literature in Uni and did a whole semster on Shakespeare (just like him) and I have read almost all plays (probably finish all of them this year) and i could name about 93% of them.. It’s not impossible
@@Sara-kq8qb My assumptions about him not being well read are based on evidence. He hasn't heard of James Kelman, he hasn't heard of Anita Brookner - these are hardly obscure writers.
You naming all Shakespeare’s plays was wildly impressive!!!!!
i don't know what part of my brain that came from honestly
Even more so in order. I’ve done these type before and knew it didn’t have to be in order.
I know right!!!
Can’t believe Merchant of Venice was the last one he got! It was the first one I ever studied, and I’ve always loved it because I got to play Portia
@@jack_in_the_books I’m confused at how you remembered how they were all spelled 😂
Referring his degree as a 'long term investment for pub quizzes' is jokes hahah
Yes. When he said that about his degree it reminded me of Machado De Assis. In Epitaph of a Small Winner the character says something like "University wasn't a complete waste of time. I got 3 lines from Virgil and 2 lines from Horace which I can remember for the rest of my life".
Jack has surpassed himself, again... He has just created a channel to remind us that he has a Literature degree 😝😝
😂😂
Literally lol. And I’m loving every second of it. 🤩
@@andresbecerra1183 totally 😆
Lol 😆
Lmaoo
"Look at Homer there like Beyonce" he said while in the middle of a crisis😂 oh, I've never laughed this much
LOL, when your worlds collide 😂😂 I will never look at or study Homer's works the same again 😂 #HomerBeyoncé
I'm weirdly annoyed that he failed the quiz because he was busy making this comment
Me either 😂😂😂
"The now's not the time" bit legit killed me and I'm questioning my sexuality rn xD
I don’t think Homer and Beyoncé have ever been named in the same sentence before lmao
YOU JUST CASUALLY NAMED ALMOST ALL THE SHAKSPERE’S WORKS IN ORDER
seeing you write all of shakespeare's plays in order from memory was somehow weirdly kind of a turnon??
Wow this has a lot of likes
I completely agree! I came into the comments to see if anyone else said it 😂
@@gangplaysminecraft9039 i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought that but it fucking was
@@gangplaysminecraft9039 right ??? I just realized hahahah wasn't expecting this
Sapiosexual they say it's called. Nice
"Hopefully you can see whats on my screen right now?" Literally all of my uni lecturers this year lmao hahahha
Aha that’s what I was thinking😂
It’s even more fun when you have to walk your ancient professor through how to work with all these programs..
It’s kinda annoying but I also feel so bad for all of them, they just got thrown into the deep end.. Honestly schools should give their teachers like an I.T.101 instead of just expecting them to figure everything out themselves at their age..
This is so wholesome because he is not vain or cockey he genuinely impressed with his results :)
He comes across as a really cool dude and like someone who would make a genuinely good friend lmao
No one:
Jack: tHeYrE hAviNg a GigGle
cracked me up xD
You naming all Shakespeare’s plays has got to be one of the sexiest things I have ever witnessed!
that is a very... unique choice of adjective
@@rapizer3427 ikr 🤣
I agree Ioana.
Wtf ur weird
Low key I agree
i’m so here for this corner of the internet
he named 11 plays in order in 1 minute and proceeded to say “oh this is hard”... I-
The way you did them in order, not realising you didn't have to, was a little stessful - not going to lie 🤣😭
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Sounds like a taylor swift song
She used that reference in the song getaway car one rep, it was the best of times the worst of Crimes. I stroke a match and blew your mind
i started singing it 😭
Lol I was about to comment this
I thought of panic at the disco
No. Taylor Swift sounds like The quote. Probably influenced her and she loves the quote
i just realized that taylor swift used these references:
"it was the best of times, worst of crimes" in getaway car
"all's well that ends well to end up with you" in lover
and my head exploded
Yesssss hi fellow swiftieeee. I was looking for the same comment!!!
And "right down the rabbit hole" :)
Never forget Romeo and juliet
“tell me what are my Wordsworth” -the lakes
yessssss
*THIS CANNEL FEELS LIKE A SECRET CIRCLE*
Me having no clue about english literature and only ever read 3 Shakespeare plays
Jack: we can compete, except you will win
Me: yeah... Not sure about that mate
“I’ve been here since day one”
Specifically since 49 minutes
If I named all of Shakespeare’s plays in order I would literally be obsessed with myself,,,, like my hubris would know no bounds
I was feeling so much anxiety thinking that you weren't going to finish that first one in time..
omg same
rightt i kept thinking answer now, explain later
Only jack edwards can make Shakespeare interesting
‘chatty, fun, stupid, candid videos’, didn’t you already make those jack? so excited about this! congrats
I was SO impressed with the Shakespeare one!! And the fact that you managed to do most of them in order as well ... wtf. Genius shit. Worth the £27k
literally yelling at the screen "A TALE OF TWO CITIES" XD
"i've been here since day one"- Jack Edwards 2021.
Alice went: Right down the rabbit hole, long story short it was a bad time
OMG I FOUND A SWIFTYYY YESSSHH
@@jenicenewberry6789 omg i've been waiting for someone to recognise the lyrics!!!!
TOOK AND WRONG TURN AND WE FELL DOWN A RABBIT HOLE
As someone who loves your personality, and just you as a person, I wholeheartedly welcome this. Thank you, Jack.
“I feel like a gamer”
petition for Jack to start a stardew valley series on this channel
Jack x Elliott is canon now
Never thought I‘d be screaming “it’s merchant of venice!” at my screen but here we are...
I'm so in for more of Jack in the internet.
me watching you name shakespeare plays i didn't know existed even though i too have a literature degree: 👁👄👁
Yelling "a tale of two cities" at the screen was an adventure 😂 Thank goodness you worked it out 😂
The "subscribe to be able to say you were here from day one" really got me
Jeez, you naming all Shakespeare’s plays in chronological order was hella impressive.. I’m not even sure I could do that with marvel cinematic universe...
I love that I'm in Biology major, I should write my thesis about molecular biological analysis of viruses in a completely different language bc I'm Hungarian and I live there yet I binge-watch your videos about English literature. Procrastination at its finest
Jack saying ''that's aaaabsolutely fine'' is me everyday in real life lol
i never clicked faster
i know same !
hello first comment nice to meet you
@@Sohamsta testament to how nocturnal i am. i mean it came out around 4 am my time. HAHAHAH
@@Sohamsta and hello. nice to meet you too
@@ThatStickFromShadesmar oh wow your speed of arrival from instagram is gr8 😃
Was shouting at the screen for outlander and Lotr questions but hey I couldn’t name all of Shakespeare’s plays 😅
I can’t believe you named all the Shakespeare plays! I literally handed in my Shakespeare coursework last week and I only got 31/38! 😅Also, this is probably a stupid question but what order were you naming them in- like the order in the first folio? Because it wasn’t date order and I was so confused 😆 loving this new channel already btw!
The channel i didn't know i needed until now. I'm so excited!
as if i didnt just the other day thought about how i don't have enough content of you IM LIVING
This was actually way more entertaining than I expected and I would love to see another video like this.
okay this channel is the best thing about 2021 so far! sooo excited for all the content Jack ☺️
Had a ton of fun playing these along with you! I was entirely unfamiliar with you prior to getting your mystery box video in my suggestions, you’ve just gained a new subscriber on both channels!
love the chilled vibes of the channel already, jack just seems so much happier aha
I am obsessed with your videos... WHY DO YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN THINGS SO WELL!?
I AM EXTREMELY EXCITED FOR THIS CHANNEL
loving this channel so far
i love the idea of this channel and this video is great!!
this channel is everything i needed and more
i love this new channel!! the vibes are IMMACULATE SIR
dude yesterday i spontaneously decided to watch your youtubers' books video (the british one) and now i've somehow made it here … i'm not complaining though i always love seeing someone who has as much love for books as i do
'A long term investment into being good at pub quizzes.' I'm in stitches 😂😂
I love this, as a lit student this seems like a good view of what the future holds
OMGGG Im so excited for this channel!!!
11:05 i ADORE measure for measure and it's so nice to hear other folks like it too!
Loved this Jack!! Chatty and fun, really cheered me up in these not so fun times😅❤️
I loved watching this, can’t wait for part 2.
omg what??? wow you are good at this!! obsessed with the new channel!
Woah in the first quiz I was like: I don’t know much about literature at all but coincidentally I happened to read or have knowledge about many of these particular questions HAHA. Like from all of the British literature i’ve read, this test had questions about exactly those books (like the first sentence in a Tale of Two Cities haha). Anyway, love the idea for a new channel Jack!! Hope it doesn’t give you much pressure to only deliver high quality content based on your level of quality (what you know you’re able to make I mean). Anyway, looking forward to new vids!💥📺🎉
Looking forward to all things random!! Love the channel idea, can't wait for the puns😂
Oh man, you just took me back like six years. My friends and I were obsessed with Sporcle quizzes in high school
Its the way that i love these kinds of videos, such a niche but its soo cool to see someone be knowlegable about things
the second channel has just MADE MY DAY. jack you're an absolute saviour.
This is my comfort vid. Thank you :)
This is the library corner I never knew I needed, but I’m totally living for it.😉👍👍
these are exactly the vibes i needed going into second term of uni:)
Love how he did the Shakespeare plays chronologically, found out he didn't have to, and then was able to do the next four in order anyway!
JACK I AM PRACTICALLY BEGGING YOU TO DO A VIDEO ON PLAYS YOU HAVE ENJOYED!!!
The theatre student in me is screaming for this
“Look at Homer out here like Beyoncé- now’s not the time.”
LOVED THIS VIDEO!!! Something about this made me feel so happy, was like being on a facetime with friends! ❤️
Jack's content has been the best thing about 2020-21, fite me
I mean this is the best way physically possible: you naming all of the Shakespeare plays correctly in order is incredibly sexy of you, I'm falling in love right now
I am so incredibly stunned that you were able to name all of the Shakespeare plays in date order, and in like 4 minutes. Wtf Jack 😂 a well earned literature degree that's for sure and I think I just fell in love.
Totally here for this content.
Also dunno if taking a level lit with art, math and physics is a good idea, but you have somehow convinced me
Omggg I loved thiss video, I’m getting more into ur content hope u continue 😭😭✨
Just found your channel from a youtube recommendation and this is wildly entertaining!
I already love this channel
WE NEEDED THIS THANK YOU
Im so excited for this second channel!!!!
absl loved this jack!! the Shakespeare quiz was great x
“felt like Zoella saying that😭”
does this mean you’re officially a booktuber now? nice
This is content I didn’t know I needed - love it! 🤩✨🙏
Mate I just wanna say, I so often slap myself that this is the same little guy I watched all those years back, when he was moving out to Durham for the first time, with his thiccc glasses and Lorde tickets 😭😭😭 seeing u hold up ur degree weirdly gave me the feels and a quick rapid flashback of ur entire Uni journey
Keep at it gee 🥰❤💖
This is the quality content I need 😂 also me screaming ITS TALE OF THE TWO CITIES at the screen 😂😂
loving this new channel
I cannot wait for what this channel is going to bring Jack!!!! I would love an unpopular book opinion video! Love ya Jedward :)
I had an exceptional literature teacher in high school and loved reading so it was fun watching this video also.. Great refresher and love your channels! I just found them
This video was so entertaining. Can’t wait for more content here ✨
I just started watching your videos recently and right now you are my favorite RUclipsr you seriously are so funny and seem so niceeee
I’m going back after having found your channel and looking at this very first video on it, and I have to note that that was not a chronological listing of Shakespeare’s plays, since “The Tempest“ was one of his last comedies, not his first, and “Titus Andronicus” was his first tragedy, not whatever was listed on there. Still, you got them all, and even though I know them all, my brain probably would’ve shut down when I was trying to remember the last one.
I love your personality.
Your videos are fun
Jack: lists all the plays written by Shakespear except for one
Me, who had to memorize the entire "A pound of flesh" monologue for my English class in HS:
* screams at the screen * YOU HAVEN'T WRITTEN MERCHANT OF VENICE YET! THAT HAS TO BE MERCHANT OF VENICE
Zomg you put in all those Shakespeare plays in order! I mean, most of them, except for the last few comedies. Way to go! Degree was totes worth it I feel.
