Hmmm, I reckon Jeremy Irons would have made a great Snape. Not that Alan Rickman wasn't sensational, I loved him as Snape, but Irons would have been pretty awesome too.
I agree everytime I see this scene I'm laughing myself silly; I didn't know he was the director of the F&S Titanic spoof because that 's funny as well; I agree with other poters that Jeremy Irons would have been a really good Snape as well though I loved Alan Rickman in the role
oh man i love Jeremy Irons' voice!! so cultured and sexy!!!! i remember him from the lion king as mufasa i would just listen to his voice and wouldnt care what he said hehe!!!
"the film is very technical, they have used quite a lot of computers and um I uh I don't understand it I still don't really use computer for writing I still use wet wipes."
"I haven't read them either, I haven't got the time. I've been so terribly busy! I've been listen once to the tapes, but that is maybe cross, because I haven't done it!" LOL Jeremy Irons is just damn funny and brilliant!
So great to see Nigel Planer and Adrian Edmondson. They should do another "the Comic Strip presents" with French, Saunders, Edmondson, Mayall, Richardson and Planer
The one playing Hermione reminds me of Rita Skeeter in the real movie...lol, the way she talks and all =D but I love French and Saunders, they're the funniest people ever. Really good at acting too.
lol he's speaking parcelforce!! XD best line ever lol! i love F+S the lord of the rings one was hilarious too lol!! brit comedy is the best mwahahahaha
And Julia Sawalha, who played Saffy on Ab Fab with Jen Saunders, of course. They're all connected. That's one of the things I love about British TV. You always see great collaborations again and again. French and Saunders are utterly brilliant and I bow to them
McGonagall: Hat, rabbit, rabbit, hat, and that's the rabbit! Is this my thumb? Hermione? Hermione: Yes!! McGonagall: Correct. Is this still my thumb? All: *nods* McGonagall: Abracadabra. *blows on hand* And that's magic! Best part of the video!^
Snape: I didn't readthe either, I just haven't had the time.......LOL Actor: "Am I behind the King?" Director: "What King?" Actor: "King Arthur, Gandalf, Oh who are you darling?" Actor 2: "Erm, who am I?"
That "lady" playing the Maggie Smith part is another great actress, Alison Steadman. Did you ever see the excellent play "Abigail's Party"on television? She played the part of Beverly.
French and Saunders do the best parodies. There's no competition.
ROFL no matter how many times i re-watch this over the years, the dumbledore "erm.. who am I?" still cracks me up!
Jeremy irons looks awesome in Severus snape outfit
Hmmm, I reckon Jeremy Irons would have made a great Snape. Not that Alan Rickman wasn't sensational, I loved him as Snape, but Irons would have been pretty awesome too.
I love the thumb trick... "And that's magic!"
Omg The J.K. Rowling parts are HYSTERICAL!
"But im behind the king!"
"What king?"
"King Arthur or Gandalf oh who are you darling?"
"Um who am i?"
"ACTION!"
LMFAO
J.K.'s imitation is right on the money! Amazing!
"But I'm behind the king!"
"What king?"
"King Arthur. Or, Gandalf. Oh, who are you, darling?"
"Um...who am I?"
"....ACTION!!" XD Freaking hilarious!
"I don't understand it... I still don't use a computer for writing. I still use wet wipes." I spit out my drink LOL
"I still use wetwipes" LOL!!! Jennifer is HILARIOUS!!!
How this hasn't gone viral is beyond me!
"I think he's speaking Parcel Force!"
Saunders' expressions are SPOT ON to rupert's in the CoS. it's frikkin' hilarious!
"Another wideshot of the great hall"
XD
lol Snape,McGonagall and Dumbledore confused over the Hagrid situation
3:22 - Ade Edmondson (E.g Jennifer Saunders's husband and comedy legend) ^_^
Yes u are correct
I agree everytime I see this scene I'm laughing myself silly; I didn't know he was the director of the F&S Titanic spoof because that 's funny as well; I agree with other poters that Jeremy Irons would have been a really good Snape as well though I loved Alan Rickman in the role
"Is this still my thumb?"... and that's magic!
Is Hermione played by the actress who played Rita Skeeter??
Yes, it's Miranda Richardson doing a brilliant job.
And Harry's being played by the Fat Lady.
mcgonagall's magic was hilarious hahaha
dumbledore sounds stupid when he said :"who am i?' hahahaha

"But I'm behind the KING!" cracks me up everytime :D!!
"You've got to be polite, especially when your talent is limited. You don't want to end up like Charlotte Church."
I personally appreciated that.
LMAO...her entire magic lecture was hilarious. I spat coffee from my mouth & nose during that bit.
This is like the best spoof ever.
"The chamberpot has been emptied"

The Dumbledore in this should've been the real Dumbledore in the movies after 2 LOL Seriously
ThreadstoTwelve I know, right?!
"the film is very technical, they have used quite a lot of computers and um I uh I don't understand it I still don't really use computer for writing I still use wet wipes."
Dumbledore: I think J.K. as we call her, is a good writer. Not great, but good. Very workman-like. I haven't read the books myself. XD
