Emma Pigeon this actually happened and another thing is that when the rest of it was being amputated the doctor asked if he was alright and uxbridge replied “the blade fells a bit dull”.
The Duke of Wellington pardoned a dragon in the book series Temeraire which is in an Alternate Napoleonic wars where Dragons exist and are used in the military.
Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington Pretty good, chilling in the United States of America. Which pretty much kicks the UK's ass these days except in maths, literacy, geography and all other book learning
Alright, that's interesting to hear. I hope the lads in the United States of America never say a mere racist thing about you. From all the news media I've been hearing about, the United States is full of racism nowadays. Then I've heard that Italy is already kicking out immigrants and putting them to countries where there are a lot of terrorism going on. I know for sure that the UK left the EU, but they should not kick immigrants out! In my opinion, human rights are a universal law. It shall be respected at all times!
Aww... whomever the drunk on the left is, he reminds me of my ex (because he was a drunk) husband (because he was adorable and hilarious) when we were that age. So cute! I never know who any of these people are, but they're hilarious. Thanks!
He probably spoke with a thick Irish brogue. His illocutionary teacher was also Irish who taught him to speak like the British, so I doubt his accent was all that English. He was keen to push Catholic Emancipation due to his Irish connections. His ancestors had been in Ireland for possibly 600-800 years and were intermixed with the Irish, his family being the Norman-Irish Colleys, Although, he may have had more Irish Gaelic stock than is admitted, his surname maybe anglicized from the Irish surname McColley the westmeath area where duke was born was the origin of the McCauley's, which was known as McCauley country.
The British always try to take credit for the defeat of Napoleon, but they were actually Johnny-late-comers to the battles that defeated the Grande Armee. The Duke of Wellington was indeed the chief commander at Waterloo, but even at that battle the British relied on many other allies, and it neglects all the battles and sacrifices made by other nations leading up to it. The fact that the first removal of Napoleon was precipitated by his disastrous campaign in Russia, followed by successive abandonment by his 'allies' should tell you that the British, while helpful, were not the primary heroes in defeating the tyrant.
There needs to be more duel historians doing this. Their combined drunkenness gives them more power.
agree!
I died when they started losing their shit over that leg. That moment alone added three years to my lifespan.
"By God, sir, I've lost my leg __ By God, sir, so you have".
Emma Pigeon this actually happened and another thing is that when the rest of it was being amputated the doctor asked if he was alright and uxbridge replied “the blade fells a bit dull”.
That is true, I agree with his grace, however some of the Lord’s leg still is in a museum in England.
I loved that scene in waterloo
"The whole line will advance!" In which direction, your grace?" Why straight ahead to he sure"
You love Napoleon more than you love me 😂
The lady playing his girlfriend is absolutely gorgeous. I think I drooled a little bit.
Jessie Carter *grooled FTFY
Jessie Carter Vicky Patterson
You never give me a compliment about the way I look, you just say I'm glad you're not in exile its not a compliment! 😁
"Because nobody just says I've lost my leg, they scream and cry until they're dead"
-all of history summarized
0:42 you love Napoleon more than me absolutely killed me
"You love Napoleon more than you love me" -HA!
Never knew Duke Wellington could be so relatable when it comes to relationships. Huh.
Here's another one with a really loud music bed.
The Duke of Wellington pardoned a dragon in the book series Temeraire which is in an Alternate Napoleonic wars where Dragons exist and are used in the military.
Why is the music so LOUD???
Music is waaaayy too loud
By God, sir, I don't bloody care about your bloody leg!

Just to spite you, I will say exactly that if my leg ever falls off.

probably ugly af without makeup
Never!
To be honest, Cholrus69, I don't think she is.
Stoatsta I don't think I understood any of that.
Wellinton was actually born in Ireland, though I doubt he had that accent.
He probably spoke with a thick Irish brogue. His illocutionary teacher was also Irish who taught him to speak like the British, so I doubt his accent was all that English.

Is it just me or does Duke Wellington remind anyone else of the teacher from Fairly OddParents?
FAIRYGODPARENTS = NAPOLEONISCOMING
You know, I didn't. But now, I can't not see that.
Isn't that girl Vicky from Geordie Shore ?
My history teacher showed us this
Jesus Christ you poor son of a bitch! You've lost your bastard leg!!
*appropriate reaction*😂😂
There are a lot of layers to this.
music a bit loud
This is exactly how I argued with my ex.😁
At some point during the episode they broke out the white board.
The music was way too loud
My god sir. I lost my leg.
bit of catharsis from living with Sara Pascoe coming out there
I don't have a favourite leg >_>
she sounds like how my girl talk sometimes
