We call all vacuum cleaners "Hoovers."
😁👍
Henry the hoover, if you know you know lol. I have one.
That we do!!
😂😂😂
@@VampireGirlxbest of the best
Me to reliable Henry hoover
Lorry driver is a truck driver.
We don't do onion powder. A pasty has real onion.
Be thankful you weren't exposed to the horrors of Mr Blobby until now, that creature terrorised generations
Like how Americans call plasters bandaids we call vacuums hoovers. Brand names being used as product names is one of the major differences in how we all speak English
We do that with some things here in the US, but it's usually "Demographic Based," like people who didn't grow up playing video games, calling every console a Nintendo. Down in some southern states, instead of saying soda or pop, they just call all softdrinks Coke.
Those are the only two examples I can think of off the top of my head, but my guess is that it probably has something to do with the abundance of choice we have over here.
Hoovers, for example, idk for sure, but I'm guessing that is like "The Brand" over there? Whereas here in the States, we use the generic word Vacuum, due to the fact that there are SOOOO many brands. 100% I would not know what a hoover is, if my Grandmother didn't have one when I was growing up. Here, I could probably knock on each neighbor's door and ask, "What kind of Vacuum do you have?" And get very few repeating answers... I think we have 3 different brands of Vacuums in this house alone, lol 😅
We use a lot of "Catchall Words" that represent entire categories instead of a specific brand.
Zip or zipper is a brand name. If you call the think on your coat or a zip or zipper you are using a brand name that has become commonplace.
@samhilton4173 Yeah, I found out that apparently Velcro is a version of "Hook and Loop" but everybody calls that stuff Velcro.
There's a Cornish Pasty museum in Mexico, because of all the Cornish miners who went there mining for silver
Our version of root beer would be Dandelion and Burdock.
Swede is a relative of cabbage farmed for its large edible root.
In the US its a rutabaga.
15 shillings, old UK money, went decimal in 1971, would be about 75 cents
12:18 Mr. Blobby: I never thought is was possible to find something that disturbed me more than Teletubbies...
A CLOSE call though don't you think? 😂
The House of Lords have actually protected the people FROM their government’s law on numerous occasions by amending legislation that could be unfair or even unlawful.
There are many “Lords” in there now who have been politicians and have been placed in there (by their political party) as they retire, nothing to do with Royalty more political nepotism, also there are successful businessmen, doctors and sportsmen amongst the members.
At least it’s better than having our public voting in a similar manner to how they vote our MPs. If they did we’d likely have lost a lot of rights in the last 14 years of Conservative rule.
Not sure if your aware of the old chant "Oggi Oggi Oggi".."Oi Oi Oi"...well its said to come from Cornwall and the Cornish pasty...The baker used to arrive at the mines in Cornwall and shout "Oggi Oggi Oggi" to let the miners know its was lunchtime and he had arrived with fresh pasties and the miners would call back "Oi Oi Oi" to show they'd heard him and were on their way up to get them
I never knew that! Thanks for sharing.
We have frozen pasty’s in are grocery stores here in Wisconsin. In America the miners here would take them down in the mines for their dinner. They are very well known in the USA for decades now.
Pasty: meat potato rutebega and lard baked in a crust. It was a favorite of old miners. The pasty would be wrapped up in cloth, and was still warm when the minor ate lunch. High in protein and carbs, and cheap to make.
Swede In the US is a rutabaga.
I agree wholeheartedly with all of your sentiments about Mr. Blobby
I also deeply dislike the way that creature walks and moves and interacts with it's environment
I really think in spite of the fact that I am a grown-ass woman, I might actually have nightmares about Mr. Blobby
Didn't know LIttle Chef has closed. On my two road trips to the UK on my moped at the starting of the century they were a convenient and affordable place to get pretty good food on the way. Not the best name but I don't mind lorry drivers, because they gave me big respect on the road. 🙃
Mr. Blobby seems like the marketing dept gave up after an all nighter.
I mean,to start with I think he was a prank character to make fun of celebrities with, under the pretence that they were making a kids show… I think after one series worth of the segment they repurposed him… Naturally, once well known, it’s harder to trick people with him
I've had a jamaican beef patty , it was spicy. I'm pretty sure the Cornish pasty is not spicy
No they are not… but they are tasty and proper fill you up!
Two completely different things …..both very nice and tasty …….i make them both
@@kimtopp5984 I can no longer eat spicy. I would love to try the Cornish pasty.
The house of lords is needed, not in the format that it is, we have the house of commons, which want to pass laws, the people in the house of lords, are specialist, in law, ex judges, solictiors and the likes, what they do, when the governement wants to pass a law, it goes to the house of lords, where they look over the legal stuff, will it work, are there things maybe wrong, and not within the law, its then goes back to the government, to be adjusted, them back to the house of lords, for fianl review, if this was not done, law suit law suit, but us british are not happy the way they get in, but very much needed, for expert stuff and knowledge
But most are not. Ex priminster mates. Or just entitled rich who some do not attend.
Did Boris Johnson sort a place for his brother. Thats how it works
Yeah, pasties are what we (in the US) call meat pies.
It’s closer to an Empanada
Nope,meat pies are entirely different things to pasties…. For you yanks the closest thing would be an Empanada just with different seasoning.
@@mubbles1066 well those pasties in the video look exactly like the meat pies my great grandmother made when I was growing up. And I know she made them with the same ingredients, including the suet. 🤷🏻♀️
@@RileyRunsWithScissors would you call them “hand pies”? I’ve heard Americans call their “pasties” that….outside of the US a meat pie is circular or square and deep filled with various meats and will come with beer added or Stilton cheese etc.
@@mubbles1066 I’ve never heard any of my family call them that…but it’s possible. I think the term “hand pie” is used more often in the Deep South. My mom got a craving for them a few years back (and great grandma passed years ago), so she attempted to make them, and it was nearly impossible to find suet in our local stores. Finally got some from a butchers shop. So we tried making them, and they looked right, but they were hard as rocks and completely inedible. 🤦🏻♀️🤣
As far as what we call them in the US, that may be down to the regional vernacular. Folks from the south may have a different name for an object than someone from the east coast. Just like with fruit-filled pastries…we might call them empanadas, fried pies, fruit pies, turnovers or hand pies. But ultimately, they are all flaky pastry crusts filled with gooey fruit and sugar, and then fried. But all of the old women in my family make/made both their sweet fried pies and their meat pies in the same half moon shape as the pasty.
My favorite British tv shows were Benny Hill and the Young Ones
Hoover became so popular, that now any vacuum cleaner is called a Hoover.
You know? You nearly lost me with House of Lords comments. I feel the same about foreigner criticism of our government: Not your concern.
When you denigrate Fawlty Towers? In the words of Popeye: I can't stand no more.
This is my childhood.😂
Try 'Only Fools and Horses' for UK comedy too.
I am in the UK and I love greggs when I am out and about and when I need a snack.
Pasties have meat and vegetables some have just meat with a gravy incase in pastry, essentially it's like a folded pie and very delicious, you can take them where ever you go, you can take them to work for you lunch break, on a day out etc. Onions are not poison, but it won't be onion powder in the pasties it will be actual fresh onions.
Little Chef was kind of like Denny's. Cheap diner food.
I think Waffle House would be a closer equivalent to Little Chef.
Swede is the English word for rutabaga.
Little chef turned in to little thief when the prices shot up that's why it died
Finally I met some one who also dislikes onions, but not the taste.
It's funny how people call all noodles Ramen all markers Sharpies and all electric craft tools Dremels but they say we can't call a vacuum cleaner a Hover because it's a brand name. Guess what people Ramen Sharpie and Dremel are also brand names. 🤣😂.
a shiiling is 5p two bob is 10p 10 bob is 50p, see where its going, its multipied, its not used much these days, it was a 70's thing and bit earlier, but diied out through the 80's
You have jumped to the wrong conclusion based upon a name “The House of Lords” is a traditional name for the place but it now has appointed members ex politicians, doctors, lawyers, experts and some peers all of whom do not make laws but simply ensure that any presented legislation is not going to do harm, they make sure it has covered all the bases and if they choose to suggest amendments it can be sent back for review after which it comes back they can only delay but cannot stop the government from passing the laws decided by the representatives of the people.
Most are now life peers not hereditary , after a bit of digging there’s 426 seats in the House of Lords, 26 are the Lords Spiritual arch-bishops and bishops from the Church of England and only 91 hereditary seats of which 76 are ‘elected ‘seats voted by the other hereditary peers. The entitlement of hereditary peers to sit and vote in the House of Lords was abolished in 1999.
The house of lords isn't like hereditary nobles anymore, it's more people given the title lord or lady for their government or charity work, unlike a medal though this is a paid legal position that basically reads all the laws parliament proposes and sends them back with a list of suggested alterations. It's like proofreading laws.
Originally Cornish pasties had a savoury side and a sweet side and you didn't know which is which.
The sweet half had fruit jam in it.
I've had a Henry hoover for 18 years and it still works better than every brand new hoover brand my family and friends have ever bought, I swear by Henry
😂 "Why Do you call it Henry HooveWhat the hell is that thing?" Most people's reaction to Mr Blobby.
Little Chef, or as my dad used to say "Little Thief", as it was so expensive.
Colin the caterpillar is a rolled sponge cake filled with cream and strawberry jam.
Blobby looks like what happens when a parent decides clowns didn't scare the kids enough and they can do better.
I am so with you about onions! I HATE the taste I HATE the texture I HATE the SMELL! I HATE the idea of onions crunching in my teeth! DOWN with onions! (Ringo Starr hates onions,, too. He is 84 today)
I love hearing that you keeping up appearances. Such a great show.
A swede is known as neeps in Scotland and rutabaga in the USA
Colin the caterpillar is a sponge cake rolled around a buttercream filling then coated in chocolate and decorated with jelly sweets
No that is not correct. A swede is know as a rutabaga in the USA, however a swede is different from a turnip and it is a turnip not a swede that is known as neeps in Scotland.
@@marcusmurphy1481 erm I am Scottish. Swede is the yellow fleshed turnip and that is what we call neeps the white fleshed turnip is just that a turnip. If you have haggis neeps and tatties it is swede you will get the yellow fleshed turnip. We call the white/purple ones wee turnip.
@@flushedphoenix81 I apologize you are absolutely correct. When I was growing up in Scotland we always had the yellow ones and we always called it turnip, turns out that was wrong!
@@marcusmurphy1481 that one was called turnip in England and some of the Scottish lowlands. I know that when I worked in Tesco we where told to watch which we put the neep through as due to the computers being English named and proces being different. The number of people who complained about turnip being on the receipt instead of what they expected was not small that was until they figured out it was called different things in different countries.
lol little chef was not a steal lol it was very very expensive
Mr Blobby is one of the old pre-Roman druidic gods.
We worship him so we don't submerge into the North Sea, like was the fate of Doggerland.
full on board with your assessment of onions everyone says I'm weird but I don't care
Get rid of royalty and have to elect someone like Trump or Biden as head of state, No thanks I will keep the King
Seconded.
Greg's is heaven and should be protected
I like them but really miss them selling loaves and rolls.
Im british, and i didn't know the lords in the house of lords wasnt elected 😳
Tbf, I think lots of people don't really understand what the House of Lords is, how it works or what it's for.
I trust now you will research it, no that would be too much trouble.
Swede in USA is called a rutebega.
Greggs should branch out abroad under their real name of Geordies, lol.
How you love keeping up appearances 😂👊🏻👌🏻🔥
I love that you love Hyacinth! 🤣🤣🤣
Mr bloppy was originally a prank for celebrities, 8nto thinking they were making a kids show.
His design and voice is purposely ment to look and sound horrible and offputting and scary.
The original show only lasted so long before the celebrities caught on. And so they created a different show that was not a prank and was a real kids show.
Because ironically, kids actually liked him.
Theres actually a video on youtube covering the rise and fall of Mr Blobby
OOOh Im from Australia... and I love Root Beer, it reminds me of our Sarsaparilla. Although Sars is stronger.
10:41 The descriptions of Tizer I'm finding make it sound like its a lemon-lime 7-Up with some red fruits added (I'm thinking it might be cherry or strawberry.)
Missing the ability to do a bank transfer
Boiled beef is their specialty 😋
Swede is rutabaga
What is that? We'll allow you to cuss when it comes to Blobby lol
Originally was the cornish pasties for coal mine workers it was their meal in one it was 2/3 savoury mince potatoe and it could have carrots and or turnip in, the other 1/3 was sweet.. could be apple like in a apple pie or any other fruit
Tin miners, no coal seams in Cornwall
I thought those were clangers. The long sausage roll like ones rather than the semi cirlce cornish pasties.
Nobody understands Mr blobby. It's an enigma.
I miss Stucky's
Mr Noseybonk was far scarier than mr blobby who makes me shudder still
🤠🤪
Henry hoovers last forever
You dont get the house of lords, i dont get your supreme court. Both are appointed for life, and can mess with the law without retraction.
as a UK citizen trust me your really don't need that shite (Greg's) in your life....... 😂 but I can definitely clarify that you all need Henry the hoover or the sister Betty 😂😂😂❤️
blobby blobby blobby 😂😂
You’re your doesn’t need an apostrophe in the UK? Interesting 🤔 I don’t get why math needs to be plural (maths) and why do you say I’m in hospital, not I’m in the hospital. How can you guys walk on the pavement and not get run over?
Mr Blobby, many scarred for life kids over here and don’t get me started on our political system .. I’m choosing non- violence today 😂
The house of lords arent royalty. Though i agree it needs to be reformed.
🤠🍔🤪
I like the house of lord's, better than politicians.
The Royal family an example of British life are down to earth which is why that american failed. She behaved like a snob above EVERYONE else & treated the extended family of staff like dirt. Misrepresentation doesn't make you right.
Mr Blobby has many victims
greggs put all the good family bakerys out of business, not sure what they put into their pastries but it gives me heartburn so never eat in their now
I think you call swede rootabega?
ranking 'Keeping up appearances’ above 'Allo, allo' is blasphemy!
swede is rudabaga
I strongly detest the idea of royalty says mrlboyd, though not enough to leave the Kingdom of Castille and its occupied territories.
House of lords is not the royal family.
Lorry = truck
Tizer isnt a taste, its a feeling
Tizer tastes like disappointment
In terms of family, the UK is like that one really weird cousin we all have that we still love, but we don't really want to invite to family doings.
When I was a teenager my mother and I stayed with a Muslim family at a luxury hotel in Williamsburg Virginia from India who were royalty according to their family members who came from around the globe to visit them.
However you wouldn't know it by their behavior other than having plenty of wealth they wernt any different.
I loved learning their customs and met my best frind from Zimbabwe Africa named Zack why there.
We bought a car that looked like a fish aquarium in the hatchback, it was a amc pacer that cost us $75 dollars or $37.50 a piece.
There language was very different including their English. Lol
Does the u k contribute anything to the world😂
I don’t walk on the pavement, if I did I’d be dead. I use the sidewalk. I park in a driveway and drive fast on the Parkway.
Ok Somethings need to stay in the UK.
Your wife is 100 procent right root beer is disgusting and should be banned....
mr blobby is creepy
Mr Blobby soiled the programme and he was awful.
Never liked Mr Blobby , he's not funny just annoying . He got Simon Cowell covered in pink slime on BGT.
Nobody likes Mr Blobby.
Just because it's you I disagree, lol.
