“Shirley Bassey?” “She doesn’t have the range. I’m sorry, Shirley; I love her to bits, but she doesn’t have the range.” “But that’s you.” ” I don’t care. I don’t have the range.”
I will never tire of saying 'doesn't have the range'. I do not care how few or how many people get the reference. It is the greatest line ever. You are privileged to have heard it.
''Oh, I've seen that film, pure fantasy...People aren't unemployed. There's no such place as Sheffield. It's utter rubbish.'' My ribs cracked from laughter.
Shirley: “It was very tough darling. Living in a small Welsh mining village and growing up black.” Tom: “Well it was worst for me. Living in a small Welsh mining village and growing up Welsh.”
'Yeesss I am the voice of Bond dahling. The DIAMONDS THEY ARE FOREVER SIR! THE MOONRAKER KNOOOOOWWSS!! THE GOLDFINGAAAAHH!! All the songs my dahling.' LOOOOL
I think there were a few of their rock profile characters that made it into little Britain - kind of a shame this show never really made it into the public eye even after they had such success as it is probably the funniest material they ever came up with.
@@minicheddar1287 little Britain series 1 was very funny, but it was much less so after that and ended up being pretty embarrassingly unfunny by the end
For anyone who has seen the original clips of Shirley Bassey when she is drunk, this is all the more hilarious because it is so accurate! :-D Long live Dame Shirley.
"I met Tina turner once, he said I was the best singer of my generation" Jamie Theakson: You men she, "No he, buck teeth, pink hat, hair bigger than David Tennant?" Shirley: That's Timmy Turner, dear.
This is the best inside joke between friends... my gosh-- I've been known for years of saying that nobody has the range!!! :) Thanks for uploading this so I could come back to this all these years.
“Shirley Bassey?”
“She doesn’t have the range. I’m sorry, Shirley; I love her to bits, but she doesn’t have the range.”
“But that’s you.”
” I don’t care. I don’t have the range.”
Lisa13245 I LAUGHED. SO. HARD. 😂😂😂😂😂
4:39
Still cracks me up, even though I expect it.
Lisa13245 😂😂😂 omfg I can't breathe
No one has the range. 💯😅
"Paul McCartney"
"She doesn't have the range"
Well she doesn't ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Cory Mck how long did it take for you to do that instead just using the "🤷🏻♀️" emoji
😂
Inadvertent but true. Didn’t laugh on that one. Lol
There's no such place as Sheffield
I will never tire of saying 'doesn't have the range'. I do not care how few or how many people get the reference. It is the greatest line ever. You are privileged to have heard it.
😂😂 like your style
I shoe horn it into any conversation I possibly can. "Wanna go to the gym today?" "I don't have the range."
It’s truly iconic.
You say you will never tire of it, but darling, you haven’t got the range!
You use a Welsh accent, of course?
"And... what about you, Shirley, do men throw their pants at you when you're onstage?"
"Darling, they try, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE ThE RANGE!!"
that voice has been in my head saying that... for years now
that voice has been in my head saying that... for years now
This is the greatest line the ever did. Just hilarious
I just kept cracking up because all Shirley's hits all have the same damn note, Brilliant
I know,;I do loads of Shirley songs and they usually revolve around Bb, well, when I do them they do, maybe I just don't have the range!!
@@stewartfraser2574 hahaha
she doesn't have the range lol
@@yourmomschesthair8233 whatevs
Wish I could sing like Shirley, I don't have the range😐
SuperStargazer666 no one has the range
I love you darling but you don’t have the range.
You know she made Happy Birthday 😫😫
Neither does she.
"People aren't unemployed, there's no such place as Sheffield, utter rubbish" 😂😂😂
"Dahling they try, but they don't have the RANGE!!"
The whole thing was leading up to that moment and it was glorious.
Few people know that "she doesn't have the range" is something Shirley actually said about Tina Turner around the time of Goldeneye.
There's a snippet of that show on RUclips lol. It was like a mini reality show.
I knew that
Wtf?
From 3.28
ruclips.net/video/OwaGsdESjko/видео.html
That's part of what makes it so funny, Shirley Bassey is ACTUALLY LIKE THIS!! :-D (at least when she's pissed)
"Billie Eilish?"
"She doesn't have the range. NO TIME TO DIEEEEEEAHHHH There. That's how it should be sung."
Okay this one made me cackle out loud
I'm dying!
😂😂😂
Well, it’s true though! She doesn’t have the range!
Actually she does have the range 😂 www.nme.com/news/music/dame-shirley-bassey-says-billie-eilish-did-a-good-job-on-bond-theme-2822072
Matt’s performance as Shirley is legitimately masterful.
If anyone is looking for the "doesn't have the range" part. it's 5:05-5:25
Jesus christ thank you
thanks my dude
Thanks, because this is overly long!
Good Looking Out! ✌🏽
Not all hero's wear capes
Did you manage to see each other's shows? " I didn't get a chance darling I was only there for twenty seven years"
and Tom Jones was only there for three hundred
''Oh, I've seen that film, pure fantasy...People aren't unemployed. There's no such place as Sheffield. It's utter rubbish.'' My ribs cracked from laughter.
Can someone explain that joke?
Shirley Bassey is a bit eccentric or doolaly.
it plays on the joke that Shirley is a diva and is pretty far removed from reality.
as the song goes..."they who have nothiiiiiiiing"
This interview is iconic. It’s so iconic that I don’t have the range to express just how iconic it is.
😂😂😂😂
I've finished the Internet and this is my favourite video,
i love how the camera drifts eerily towards Tom's crotch all the time
+snelopy it does doesn't it...i noticed at the end, but then going back it's sometimes resting there when they cut back to him. lol
as it should
Shirley literally did the entire interview lying down. That’s a diva.
So true 😭😭😭
She saw a darling film darling! 😀
She's not here to make friends. 🤣
"He's putting me off darling, I've had so many hits...Happy Birthday to you..."
I cant decide whether that ones my favorite or "Tomorrow Never DIIIIIEEES, there thats how it should be sung"
Probably their best ever sketch. Love it.
I love it when Matt plays sassy women. XD
"I LAV TO MAKE LAV TO YOU DAHLING."
XD
You again!
Nice to see you too XD
"You're a wicked boy dahling trying to seduce me dahling" 😂😂😂
LMAO You can see where Bubbles came from xDDD
"OOO take your hands of meeeeh!!" 😂😂
Shirley: “It was very tough darling. Living in a small Welsh mining village and growing up black.”
Tom: “Well it was worst for me. Living in a small Welsh mining village and growing up Welsh.”
Best line ever
Shirley actually grew up in Tiger Bay in Cardiff’s docklands. Very diverse even back then.
'Yeesss I am the voice of Bond dahling. The DIAMONDS THEY ARE FOREVER SIR! THE MOONRAKER KNOOOOOWWSS!! THE GOLDFINGAAAAHH!! All the songs my dahling.'
LOOOOL
You didnt do em all, I did Thunderball.
I think youre mistaken dahling thats one of mine. THE THUNDERBALLS ARE FOREVER SIIIRRRR!!!
darling?
I don't care, I don't have the range
I crack up every time. I've rewatched it so many times lmfao
dickpigging101 me too
Ha ha ha brilliant
"All the hits darling."
Just perfect and never gets old even after watching repeatedly over the years.
Bubbles was obviously inspired by Matt's portrayal of Shirley ;)
I think you are quite correct.
Congratulations !
Tap water for everyone !

@@TyrannosaurusCHEX stfu, little Britain is better. Stop trying to be more ‘cultured’
@@minicheddar1287 little Britain series 1 was very funny, but it was much less so after that and ended up being pretty embarrassingly unfunny by the end
"The diamonds they are forevarsarrrhhh.....the goldfingarrrhhh". She sings like that LOL.
as an American from Chicago, I just found this show and this is basically my everything rn
Can I also recommend Star Stories
cool, welcome to britain!
"You're a wicked boy trying to seduce me!" 🤣
I wish I could be as self-assured as Shirley Bassey is in this sketch
Yes! It is the dream to have this much self-awareness and this little self-consciousness.
Maybe you could be... If you had the range
What a masterpiece
Am I allowed to say that, because I don't have the range!?
I’ve got to say, Jamie Theakston is brilliant in this. His horrified and baffled reactions are spot-on.
Jamie Squeakston* 😉😂
'THE THUNDERBALLS ARE FOREVER SIRRR!'
2:40 Ferrrerro Rocherr schhocolat, my dahling. lol My god... this skit is hilarious!!
31 people just dont have the range!!!!
Bill Proud 52 people now. i love them i adore them but they dont have the range, darlings
yaspaige6 61 Now
Bill Proud 62 people don't have the range

*in the tune of Diamonds Are Forever* "TOMORROW NEVER DIIIIES"
"There, that's how it should be sung."
He? Tina turner ?
Gets me in stitches every time.
You mean Dickie Turpin, darling.
Hes putting off dahling I've had so many hits, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOOOU...
Shaka KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
I love how every song Shirley demonstrates sounds exactly the same. 😂
She does bring Thunderball up a key or two to show versatility lol
...and with the insistence "That's how it should be sung." lol
I showed this to my dad and now he won’t stop saying “SHE DOESN’T HAVE THE RANGE”
Hahahaha "....but that's you." "I don't care I don't have the range!"
“I’ll meet you around the back, by the bins. Uhh take your hands off me!” 😹😹😹😹😹
Jamie theakstone was stunning here. Those closeups don’t take any prisoners!
For anyone who has seen the original clips of Shirley Bassey when she is drunk, this is all the more hilarious because it is so accurate! :-D
Long live Dame Shirley.
I sought it out and am FASCINATED with that documentary now! Awful drunken jokes about the Bishop Said To The Actress etc!
The green, green grass of home...
Florida.
She just doesn't have the range x
"I think you're mistaken, darling, that's one of mine...THE THUNDERBALL'S ARE FOREVER SIRRRRRRRR!!!!"
One of the funniest sketches period.
This would have been the greatest snatch game performance of ALL TIME!
💯👐👏👏🤣🤣🤣 the snatch game we all need to see!!
The casual roasting to each other is killing me inside XD
shirley bassey?
she doesn't have the range!
that's you...
i don't care i don't have the range
David Walliams looks like Fred West here!😱
That's quite frightening eek!
ha! ha! ha! Magic!!!
omg!lol
dvdredmond haha he does as well he should of played him instead of Dominic west.
But then he'd have to murder people!
5:24 "I don't care... I don't have the range." I'm dead.
“Paul McCartney?” “She doesn’t have the range”
LOL I don't care I don't have the range
"Well it was worse for me; living in a small Welsh mining village and growing up Welsh!" xD Gets me every time.
Matt's reaction at 0:56 - laser-focused vapid look with dead eyes, and the eye roll! LOLS!!
Watching David’s welsh accent go from Welsh to Indian cracks me up
"I met Tina turner once, he said I was the best singer of my generation" Jamie Theakson: You men she, "No he, buck teeth, pink hat, hair bigger than David Tennant?" Shirley: That's Timmy Turner, dear.
Still, Turner! 😉
One of my favorite bits in this-that I haven't seen brought up-is that she choose where to live from a Herbie film.
"Shirley, do the men throw their underwear at you too?"
"They try, but they don't have the range!"
I love Matt Lucas’ mannerisms, esp. in this sketch! :p
"The diamonds are forever sir!" Send flowers to my family, because I died.
i cracked up laughing so hard !! "i don´t care i don´t have the range" bit was so funny
Yes, we all come here over and over again for the "She doesn't have the range" moment... but it's best version is at the end. "Darling, they try !"
😭😂 “I hope it’s chips, it’s chip” lol. This was so much fun to watch.
I love how Lucas’ impersonation of Dame Shirley Bassey was just an early Bubbles Devere! 😂😂
They did that with a couple of their characters. Lou and Andy were basically just Lou Reed and Andy Warhol from rock profiles.
This is the best inside joke between friends... my gosh-- I've been known for years of saying that nobody has the range!!! :) Thanks for uploading this so I could come back to this all these years.
4:18 = Skyfaaaaaaaaaaaaall
I love it when a joke actually gets fresher years after it was written!
Their timing is perfect and their reaction looks so real lol makes it the best sketch ever. Perfect example 7:00 to 7:45
omg i love this "shirley"
One of the greatest videos on RUclips. What a tonic. Cmon 🏴
"Have you ever stayed in a trusthouse fortay travel lodge my darling?"
"Yes I have"
"You're a very wicked boy trying to seduce me"
i laughed so much, i am welsh,
i nearly went hysterically insane...
i'd never have guessed you were welsh with a last name like _jones_ :)
Lmao she said ive had so many hits and started singing happy birthday to u.
She Doesn’t have the range
She doesn’t have the range
Doesnt have the range .. but that’s you .. I don’t care I don’t have the range 😂😂😂😂
I keep returning to this over and over. Love it.
You don't have the range.
@@TomRipley7350 Still, Turpin.
Am I the only one who thinks the host is hot? 😘😜😂
Yes.
No. Everyone thought he was hot at the time. Then he disappeared for a bit. These days, he's, like a 7/10-tops dad-bod type.
What is his name?
Jamie Theakston. I think he presents some daytime game show or something.
Obviously not. Shirley Bassey thinks he's hot too.
We hope it's chips it's chips! *Serious face* Still kills me to this day
The Brits have always been great at impersonation... but this is another level.. best comedy in the world...
“But that’s you”
“I don’t care she doesn’t have the range!”
When she yells " take your hands off me" I about died
LMAO,, HIS show had to be on in the afternoon so the audience could get back to the nursing home
7:52 The Face of the Interviewer is so perfect, So much bewilderment causes these strange inhabitants, the man deserves a BAFTA!
“They try, but they don’t have the range!” Such amazing payoff for that joke
The man who broke the bank of Monte carlooooooooaahhh 1:17
i came for one line but stayed for all nine and a half minutes of joy
As a Welsh person this is hilarious!
This makes me soooo happy, thank you for uploading😘
"Paul McCartney?" "SHE doesn't have the range" im DYING
"The green green grass of home!!....Florida."
They wanted to include this as part of BBC2's Christmas Day broadcast. But BBC2 doesn't have the range.
You cannot get better! Hilarious. xx
I tried to watch this on my broadband but I didn't have the range...
I don't care I don't have the range!
Tom Jones pissed on my friend's nan's doorstep once.
Was that in Wales?
the two are hilariously funny
AWESOME XD
Legendary....Shes right - they dont have the range....
these are all hilarious but this one in particular makes me laugh like some dog with mange. these two were so destined to do comedy together.
I watch this video at least once a week. it's so much more than the meme. every moment a perfection
