- S06E1, Desperate Doings in the Graveyard
At the chateau, Helga announces general Von Klinkerhoffen. He is dissatisfied with the way the colonel is running the town and lately, he has found out about the strange doings in the graveyard. Therefore, he has arrested Monsieur Alfonse, the undertaker, and intends to let the colonel and the lieutenant interrogate him. After making a few lame attempts, which the general is not satisfied with, lieutenant Gruber manages to get an answer from Monsieur Alfonse about the mounds of earth in the graveyard; the graves are being dug in the summer, when business is "slack", to be prepared for winter, when people will fall of the perch. As the general says he is satisfied with this answer, they let Monsieur Alfonse go. After this, the general urges the colonel and the lieutenant to keep an eye on him, since he is not at all satisfied with the answer and suspects the gravediggers are up to something.

"In that case, can I go?" is the most underrated reply in the history of British Comedy xD
Incredibly good acting by Guy Siner. He goes from smooth questioning straight to complete anger, followed by laughing about the interrogation steps and then turning around to the general smiling and realizing it was wrong to do so and getting worried and ashamed. All within 5-6 seconds.
2022 and "We ask the questions" still makes me laugh! Epic series!
The bit where Gruber shows the instructions to Alfonse is so cute, like they are sharing a little joke.
Still cracks me up after so long
hahahahahhaha same!
It’s his face afterwards!! 😂😂😂😂😂 brilliant acting!!
I never thought of that. It actually DOES make sense to dig graves in the summertime, when the soil is soft. Digging a grave when the ground is frozen solid is a pain.
True. At my mother's burial in February 1986 it had been hard frost for weeks on end. The guy digging the grave had to borrow a jackhammer from somewhere to break the top soil. It was simply hard as concrete.
Even though the burial naturally was a sad occasion, the anekdote later broke out a few smiles, people imagining a sweating employee breaking out a solid sweat in -20 degrees Centigrade, trying to operate a huge pneumatic tool.
My father was a boy in The Netherlands during the occupation, and most things that referenced ww2 upset him, but this show had him in stitches laughing. English humour at it’s very best!
A national embarrassment .
@@bobgibb2781 On the contrary, British humor is one of the few good reasons British people are admired and envied everywhere in the world.
Superb, humour. Unmatched worldwide
@@bobgibb2781 ..enlighten? WAIT! Are you Dutch or just very young?
@@dallesamllhals9161 Probably neither, just someone that cannot follow a conversation,Ive been thinking about putting together some courses called "how to talk",i think i could make millions in today's world , for example... the correct response to the OPs comment would be " Man thats great!! glad your father made it thru the war and enjoyed show like this" NOT "a national embarrassment"
I like how von Strohm & Gruber were just lounging around when Helga announced the general.
When he switched “ We ask the questions “ then switch back was brilliant 🤣🤣
Gruber is my favorite Allo Allo character. I cry laugh every scene he is in
The casting of a straight chap as gay was a masterpiece of casting.
We know everything!!
Alfonse : in that case can i go 😂
No, you can not go!
Here in Portugal Allo Allo was huge in the early 90's, well, even today a lot of people love this show. I have a neighbor and her name is Jade (yes, she has an English name), she's only 20 but she loves the show so much. Thank you for the Upload. Happy 2022.
The brilliant Kenneth Connor here as Monsieur Alfonse. Kenneth was a truly nice man according to everyone who worked with him.
1:58 - best moment ever in the history of mankind :D
Gruber face expressions are Oscar winning :D
I miss the actors so much, I'm 29 and raised with the show...
Absolutely brilliant moment.
Me too!!! 😭 They don't make this kind of humour any more... 😧
@@MrsHyde92 BLAME WOKE POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
Yeah, I'm much older and dutch but everyone watched it here on friday night, all the kids and parents too. My brother came to bring me my gymbag once in school and he opened the door saying "Good Moaning" like Crabtree and the kids thought he was the coolest funniest person they'd met for weeks, haha.
The saddest thing about this show was that half The actors passed away The moment The 9th season ended.
For instance The actor who played general von klinkenhofen passed away very quickly The show ended. Why? No idea he seems healthy enough.
"I will bury you swiftly and with style." It takes balls to say something like that to a General of an occupation army.
hahahaha!
"Especially impressive when you consider 'e is half the height of another undertaker with a similar slogan "with dignity and style"
"The Tool Man?"
As partisan I can say nothing takes balls like a land mine.
Certain people are saying it right now.
They were only germans
This scene is absolutely brilliant :)
I deeply agree! :)
1:56 😂🤣plus the fact Gruber shows Monsieur Alfonse how he's supposed to say it in that matter from the manual Gruber's holding. I could laugh with this until my cheeks start hurting. And I'll keep on saying this: British humour, best in the world bar none. Heil Brittania! 😋
i always made a point of donating to my local PBS station (channel thirteen in NYC) in appreciation for all of the British shows they introduced me to back in the eighties and nineties. that was the 'first taste' in what has become an obsession over the years. 'Allo 'Allo is one of my absolute favorite shows of all time (except the last season with the recast Herr Flick), and this scene is the single most perfect bit of writing/acting in comedy history.
"VE ASK ZE KVESTIONS!!!" and "GO AVAY!!!" are easily my favorite quotes.
One of the greatest British humor gems.
I watched Allo Allo stage show live in Sydney in the early 90s. "Renee" had a head injury so an Australian actor (Max Gillies) stood in. Otherwise all the cast members were there on stage. The guy playing Herr Flick was quite tall and he was very nimble, doing cartwheel on stage with his long coat on. Quite an interesting experience.
Wow, I watched the stage show in London about two weeks before he had that awful accident.
I love that, Herr Flick doing cartwheels! 😂 That image will stay in my head for a while
VEE ASK ZE KVESTIONS!!
XD
1:51 - This scene is just a masterclass of comedy writing and acting. Brilliant, funny as hell and we can play it again and again, thanks to RUclips.
The BBC produced some great comedy in the 1980's and 'Allo 'Allo was arguably the best of the lot.
Yeah! in 1985 I remember I use to watch this on a Sunday evening when it was on TV, and try to get my French homework done at the same time before school on Monday, it was all very French in 1985, Simon Le Bon Roger Taylor and Nick Rhodes recorded the 'So Red the Rose' Arcadia album in Paris too, some very happy memory's for me that year, God I miss the 80's
Now - oh now.. It will be probably sued for hate-speech and shut down on episode #1
@Concrete Head I fully agree with you. The 2 Ronnies was a far superior show - ditto for Dick Emery, Benny Hill, etc etc.
Yes - I also loved “You Rang, M’Lord”, Yes Minister and Rumpole of the Bailey. I have all the ‘Allo ‘Allo episodes on DVD
Absolutely correct. Unlike the dreadful gash that the BBC produces today!
Allo Allo is brilliant even today
BRIIIIING IM IN HEEEAAAAR.... always cracks me up when Helga shouts out!
Very funny: "we ask the questions!". Great show!
Man I loved this show as a boy.
English comedy is just brilliant
“DO NOT SAY GOOD MORNING!!!” 😂😂
Allo, allo is priceless, - even after all these years.
Agreed I can honestly say this is the only show that literally has me laughing from start to finish and even when I watch the episodes more than once
Superbly written and extremely funny - not many ‘comedies’ around today that match those criteria
I’ve got this entire series on DVD. I still find it hilarious. And clips like this still pop up on my RUclips. And I’ll watch them. It’s timeless.
The algorithm is being weird again. Still, loved this show - I miss the days when comedies were funny.
Will never have fed up this fantastic series 😀
''VE ASK ZE GVESTIONS!'' Gruber showed some teeth and i almost believed it. Still makes you laugh after all these years.
Talent was something different back in a day.
I love this episode. To be completely honest, I love the entire show.
Pleaze let this serie sending on every Hospital TV ! I think everyone will quick get better !!
No with stomach problem 😂
Love this scene, but there are so many classic moments throughout the entire series, although series 6 probably is its amazing peak.
One of the best cutscenes.
'Allo 'Allo was always on the tv.
I remember this from my childhood.
Monsieur Alfonse is such a funny character
Kenneth Connor at his best.
This is the best show ever along with last of the summer wine
2:03
The laugh of Gruber
Did he fall out of character? :-)
No, he was just happy he followed the interrogation guidelines and it worked :)
No
There is a series of the outtakes and to be fair, Gruber is guilty of most of the uncontrollable laughter!
@@Hugh_Jurrection whats the series of outtakes called? can I find it anywhere?
What a lot of people didn't realise is it was sending up the tv series Secret Army, not the war or anything to do with it.
Gruber! A class act!
Very clever series and a brilliant cast 👏
General: Are you satisfied with this explanation, Colonel?
Colonel: Definitely not, general!
General: Well, I am...
xD xD I died...
When I served in the army our colonel while issuing some orders used to ask our captain :"Is it all clear to you?" -"Yes, sir!" - "Then now do quite the opposite and everything will be right!"
How can you not laugh at every line? We have to admit that it's hilarious, even for French people. Too bad they won't show it in France. The production of French comedies has nothing comparable to offer these days. Long live England and long live the King.😍
Oscar for this scene :)
Swiftly and with style! 😂
VEE ASK ZE QVESTIONS!
See it says so here in ze book lol
Kim Hart, I love your Helga.
Kim Hartman...
general: HH
colonel: HH
luitenant: Klap!
hahaha makes me laugh everytime!
@Certyfikowany Przewracacz Hulajnóg Elektrycznych it is actually the way he explained it when asked what he was saying.
That was typical of captain Hans Geering...
"I will bury you swiftly and in style" that is if you not stocked for winter kkkkkkkkkkkkk
Gruber standing behind you is going to make any man nervous.
Not if he'd be in The Blue Oyster Bar. 😉😎😃
😂😂
Best scene in Allo Allo. Good comedy.
There wont be better seria ever
Absolutely Brilliant.
We know everything...
In that case can I go....hahahaha
This comedy stand alone
Excellent job
"Bring him in here! " :-D
My late dad always loved it when Monsieur Alfonze said: "I will bury you swiftly and with style." He would burst out laughing everytime😅
"we ask the question" priceless
Lieutenant Gruber reminds me of Lieutenant Barclay fromStar Trek: TNG.
I swear everyone has a dad or grandpa that watched this
I was told the Germans French Italians all enjoyed this show
Who would’ve guess French enjoy being depicted as bald wall eyed fatty, constantly preoccupied with his little business in the war time and yet known as “the bravest man in all France”, while accidentally of course his wife, utterly poor with talent half deaf singer-wannabe is named Édith.
It was unconditionally & universally loved all over Western Europe.
@@Gliese380 The Eastern one as well
They’re all good sports despite their history, old fruit.
Gruber is the best!!! 😃
I never know how Allo Allo worked. It' s always the same jokes, i see it thousands of times in the last 40 years almost, i know always whats coming, there are no surprises, nothing. And yet... It's hilarious any single time I watch it. I never get tired of it. Never! Allo allo should have lost his appeal decades ago. But no. Still amazing, still hilarious, a show with the same jokes in every episode!
Agree
Ohhh Helga!
I wish this show comes to Netflix love it
It’s on Netflix in the U.S.!!
It's on PRIME
@@nyakinyuan1005 thx
We know everything!
-In that case can I go 😂
"My ticky tickeeerrr... !"
😂
When I had to go to the headmaster's office back in school...
Along with it Ain’t Half Hot Mum two of the funnier WW2 comedies ever made with Dads Army os number one. So a top three!
1:52 Simply legendary comedy moment!
Just superb comedy! 😂😂
Why don't we make comedies like this anymore, lol :)
I wonder what Herr Flick would say if he witnessed this "professional" interrogation. :D
Kíváncsi vagyok mit szólna Herr Flick, ha ezt látná. :D
Helga can interrogate me anytime. 😉😆😅
A little bit more torture, von Schmallhausen...
This show took the p*ss out of the French, the Germans and the British without mercy but everyone loves it. Brilliant comedy!
Love this scene! :D
I expect that many Germans in uniform in WWII were just civilians at heart expected to be tough and ruthless, and it is these Germans that Allo Allo portrays. They just didn't have the 'tough, ruthless' in them, even when they tried. And that always makes for great comedy.
brilliant!!!
I love Gruber
Is he one of us?
Same :)
We ask ze questions! ....swiftly and with style!
Helga: go avay
Mr. Alfonse: go avay....
lmao
This show beats back any and all comedy
I’m half-Austrian so I ask ze qvestions! 🇦🇹😂
"Vat is your favourite month?'
'June General.'
'You lie.'
Ve ask the qvestions! - tears
I laughed so hard with my tears
Vee azk zie questions!
In that case can i go?
Yes, you may.
No
but, how come that general salutes first??? he is a superior officer.
I was pissing by the door.
I love `Allo `Allo :)
Genius !
My 14 years old nephew described Allo Allo as, and I quote, "boomer humour". Apparently teenagers this days have different sources of entertainment. I get it, it's their life.
1:59 is my favorite moment in while of allo allo
Goodbye the 80s
So funny! Happy times
Magic.
Vee ask ze kveshchuns!!! 🤣😁
