It seems ironic, but Henning is developing into a British National Treasure. He was once asked why he chose to come and live in Britain, to which he replied " the lovely weather, the tasty food, and the classy women". Priceless...... And the best of it is, that it's almost a privilege to be insulted by Henning. A genuinely funny guy. I always look forward to his appearances on Would I Lie To You. That show was made for him. His (mainly true) tall stories are matched only by Bob Mortimer's Mortimerian Tales......And going back to pre-pandemic, Henning put in a very creditable performance for a comedian on BBC's Question Time.....answering questions clearly and logically, getting lots of applause in the process.
Nobody can insult a British seaside town as nicely as an adopted foreigner, and Henning does it so well :) I thought Weston super Mare was bad, its paradise compared to Bognor. Come and visit us here Henning.
At least Weston can boast it is the birthplace of Ritchie Blackmore. Bognor has a most recent claim to fame of Russ Abbott taking the mickey back in the 80's. I agree with Henning that the view was nice though.
love Henning and his tongue in cheek observations on the British. I may be wrong but TV now seems to be reverting back to "little Britain" type TV, celebrating everything British, and burying our heads in the sand again.
It's what the public wants. Some stuff from the past was genuinely funny and still is . I bet in the 70's there were people calling morecambe and wise shit but due to their being only 3 channels and no social media it was rare to hear such criticism.
I'm American and first encountered Henning on Would I Lie To You re-runs in the States. I'm so glad I found this channel! And it's good to know that he's in Britiain and not bicycling through Morocco!
Great video, I found you on QI (as many else have done I guess) and if you only get your RUclips uploading to work with a proper resolution I'll enjoy it even more👍
QI...? Oh thank you for that tip. Up to now, I've been managing only on Henning in "Would I Lie To You?" Priceless! The only comedy better than British comedy, is British comedy through German eyes!
Henning is so good natured, intelligent and witty, somebody should commission him to do a “Notes From a Small Island” Bill Bryson type travelogue. It’d be hilarious and insightful.
We went for a day trip to Bognor. When we got home the 6 o’clock News showed that the bin we sat next to and dropped our rubbish into had contained an IRA bomb…. The one the local also remembers
Reminds me of my time in Britain in the ninties, working in strange places mending animals... a police officer on retirement followed me in his car because he found it strange how I drove. I think he slightly overstepped his authority... 🤣
Went to Butlins in Bognor on a coach organised by the WI once in the early '80s. My Mum, my friend Max and my little sister. It peed down most of the day, most of the rides were closed, the swimming pool on the first floor pissed water into the lounge on the ground floor and the broken glass on the tops of all the walls by the entrance didn't glisten in the non-existent sun. Went back (to Bognor, not Butlitz) to run a training course of tree felling a few year later and have never been back. Can't think of any reason why I would.....
I can't believe Henning went to Bognor, walked down the pier and didn't mention the Birdman competition. I don't think he even knows about the Birdman competition!
Bognor really was beuatiful in the 1800's, with cosy cottages and grand, sweepingly beautiful old buildings. Most are gone, replaced by squareness, concrete and glass. Much of the pier has been allowed to fall into the sea and what's left is crumbling. The sea is still beautful.
Henning, you missed the crazy golf course. I went with friends to Bognor once, to see the Bognor Birdman event, in which people attempt to fly in home-made gliders off the tip of the pier. We arrived, only to find it was cancelled. That's when we found the crazy golf! Oh what a day we had, a bit like yours....
The only reason bognor and Brighton are popular is it is close to london. The beaches are stoney and it's an absolute ball-ache to get to from anywhere but London. Love Henning though
I’ve been to all those places! Nice to see the hotel put you in the bridal suite too! (Yep I’m another - slight local - just along the coast in Emsworth). Emsworth is famous for giving several people typhus in 1902 - and so killing the Dean of Winchester (along with several others), by feeding them oysters contaminated with raw sewage (one way of destroying the village’s main industry of the time!) “Bugger Bognor!” (George V - allegedly)
Henning Wehn was invented by Jesus. Sorry, gratuitous Unbelievable Truth reference, I am not even a christian. Wehn is probably the most consistently funny contributor to that panel show, which is very much worth a listen in general (it's on the archive shhhh).
Typical of seaside towns it seems. Been to a few over the years and they are all similar. Most shops shut down, hotels shabby and rundown and greasy food. One hotel had a sign in one town that had a selling point of having slot machines in the bar…classy. Beer was like piss. Went to a restaurant and their wine choice was basically dry, medium or sweet….

The fact the IRA chose to use some of their precious Semtex to blow up the front of Woolworths in Bognor Regis is one of the world’s great mysteries. It happened in 1994 by the way, not 10 years ago!

@@angelapietras1235 There are things I miss about Australia of course. But I missed the greenness, the history, the birdsong, the seasons, the pubs, the footpaths throughout the countryside, the old houses,. the castles, the easy access to other countries, the canals, the culture, the radio, BBC radio 4, the differences within a shorter distance, the ability people have to look beyond our shores, the fact that where I live I rub shoulders with rich and poor, educated and not, professional and workman, even titled and not. We came home because my teaching qualifications were not recognised in WA, and my husband wanted to start a business and the UK is more of a hub for customers than Australia. I got a job within a couple of months of arrival and a year on, we had a village house with a fantastic view, a business and a baby. My sons are Australian by descent, and have been several times, but they do not want to live there. We arrived back by boat at Harwich, and were greeted by a couple of policemen at the end of the gangplank with a cheery Good evening, then train into Liverpool street where the London architecture I had lived in previously hit me with something akin to love. I love this place, whatever the politics of the time, whatever the annoying tacky yobbos say.
Oh I love him - his mangled English is still better than most of ours and gives him such a funny character - he plays the hapless foreigner so well and he uses that to take the piss out of the English nearly as much as he does himself and the Chherrrrmans😃 Mind you, those two little kids he chanced upon on the pier that he told the joke to and the smaller one thought it was hilarious but was simultaneously a bit shocked and the other one almost slightly offended and effecting that ever-so-slightly affronted, almost prissy sort of King's Scholar and Head Boy tone, who clearly couldn't quite believe this German comedian would tell such a vulgar joke to two small children just gave the scene a marvellously amateur, non-repeatable and UTTERLY English sort of wonkiness which was a real delight!!
@@stigkrakpants3052 what do you suggest - I have re read what I wrote and find there to be nothing amiss with the spelling, grammar, syntax, punctuation or "sense".

He lives in London, not Britain 😝
He lives near me in North London. I told him I thought he was very funny. 'Ya for a German' he replied.
So he came to live in Britain but couldn't give a good reason why he wanted to live in the greatest country in the world.
Very classy.

@@Lily-BravoHow on earth can any British person like the UK after living in beautiful Australia,I’m British left there 44 years ago to live in Newzealand ,even though our country is going downhill it’s 💯 better than the UK.
@@angelapietras1235 There are things I miss about Australia of course. But I missed the greenness, the history, the birdsong, the seasons, the pubs, the footpaths throughout the countryside, the old houses,. the castles, the easy access to other countries, the canals, the culture, the radio, BBC radio 4, the differences within a shorter distance, the ability people have to look beyond our shores, the fact that where I live I rub shoulders with rich and poor, educated and not, professional and workman, even titled and not. We came home because my teaching qualifications were not recognised in WA, and my husband wanted to start a business and the UK is more of a hub for customers than Australia. I got a job within a couple of months of arrival and a year on, we had a village house with a fantastic view, a business and a baby. My sons are Australian by descent, and have been several times, but they do not want to live there. We arrived back by boat at Harwich, and were greeted by a couple of policemen at the end of the gangplank with a cheery Good evening, then train into Liverpool street where the London architecture I had lived in previously hit me with something akin to love. I love this place, whatever the politics of the time, whatever the annoying tacky yobbos say.
Oh I love him - his mangled English is still better than most of ours and gives him such a funny character - he plays the hapless foreigner so well and he uses that to take the piss out of the English nearly as much as he does himself and the Chherrrrmans😃 Mind you, those two little kids he chanced upon on the pier that he told the joke to and the smaller one thought it was hilarious but was simultaneously a bit shocked and the other one almost slightly offended and effecting that ever-so-slightly affronted, almost prissy sort of King's Scholar and Head Boy tone, who clearly couldn't quite believe this German comedian would tell such a vulgar joke to two small children just gave the scene a marvellously amateur, non-repeatable and UTTERLY English sort of wonkiness which was a real delight!!
well improve your english skills then
@@stigkrakpants3052 what do you suggest - I have re read what I wrote and find there to be nothing amiss with the spelling, grammar, syntax, punctuation or "sense". So, perhaps you could edit it and show us all how it's done - I am genuinely curious!
Edit: especially as you fail to capitalise either the first word ("well") and "English" - or finish the sentence with a full stop. That's three basic errors in six words😆 So yeah, really looking forward to your suggestions - or should I say "improvements"?
Sir, your long sentence is marvelous!
he's great. but "mangled English?" He has perfect grammar. There's only his strong accent.
Bad English? Somebody obviously has never heard of dialects.
I'm British and the best holiday I've ever had was (drum roll 🥁) in Germany. 🤣.
I came to Stuttgart for a visit,loved it and spent the next 18 flying back and forth every few months and then 5 years ago moved over to live here. Stuggitown is an awesome city to live in, Germany itself is awesome.
Just found the Channel. So glad Henning stayed in UK. He's such a giggle.
It's along along the South Coast. How did you lose it?
@@Lily-Bravo 😁 very droll
"Most Sunshine Hours!"
Whatever you do, don't let Eastbourne know you said that! 😱😄
You forgot the small print "on mainland Britain" Isle of wight will be out for blood!
