"Is it contagious?"
"Yes sir, but only to people who don't want to get a real job."
Throwing stones from a glass house today, are we? (/j, edit for spelling)
Nothing like taking the piss out yourself is there? One of the best lessons to learn in life, don't take yourself too seriously 😁.
The best spot for throwing stones
Wait there's other place we can throw stones. Why did no one tell me
@@benmccarthy3177, you're supposed to throw stones AFTER stepping outside your glass house... threw me too.
There's a very funny version of this that I heard in a Bollywood movie:
Those who live in glass houses...
...have to change their clothes in the basement! 😂
I guess this sounds funnier in Hindi, but I crack up every time I think of it!
His tree performance was wooden, but then he swooshed, and I was moved.
bahahahahahahahaha
nice one ;)
How’s he swooshing?
He board me, to be honest.
Just gave you the 1000th thumbs up. ;)
"Oh my god! He's from either New Zealand or Australia" 😂 😂 😂 absolutely sent me 🤣🤣🙌🏻
agreed, such a great line😂😂👌🏼
I loved that line too. And....OMG!!! CLISARE!!! (loved you in FAH’s Hard Lads sketch!) 😁🤣😂❤️💕
Yeah, nah. He's definitely not from New Zealand with that accent.
Sorry but the accent was definitely not either Aussie or Kiwi. I could hear a very faint resemblance to Australian but no, once again, foreigners failed to imitate the Australian accent.
Heart of Dawn I mean, australia neither, c’mon
Plot twist: The actor was the general’s estranged son who went to art school!
Omg yh arts school i could see that!
And then he got rejected from art school and WW2 started
Oh yes he is!!
@@TheGerd omg lol
Le gasp! That’s why he knew about his wife 🤯
Pity they didn't know about his other weakness- handguns.
Sequel!
Omg. The weapons this guy could pretend he has and can use! 😁🤣😂
Pew pew!😅
or fingerguns
or are we saving that for the lads? 🤔
@@foilarmsandhog The Adventurous Life of Richard Chandley III - The Series
"I'll do anything - even Panto!" "Oh no you won't." "OH YES I WILL!"
Remember this time of year when panto season started.... AHH pre 2020
I'm sorry, what's Panto?
Pantomime, a family orientated musical stage comedy
@@foilarmsandhog Oh, thanks! And that's a disliked genre?
Thanks for mentioning that - I didn’t catch that word and couldn’t see it in the subtitles / captions and had wondered what they’d said. Also, it’s good that “panto” is also explained in these comments cuz that might not be caught either. But it’s sad that I actually know what that means and didn’t need that part explained! Really sad! 😜😳🤣
"Have his bones removed and examined." I'm dead. 🤣 the best drama I've ever seen! 👏 my gosh I love this 😂
The tension was palpable, I agree. 😁
rest in peace
"I'm dead" he will be too
1,200th Like!
i love how he's just grooving behind the glass as they talk
same!!!!
getting into character
@Mia Smith : omg - the real ghost is the camera and cameraman. Special effects! They’ve finally attracted the Hollywood level funding they deserve! (If only ☹️😫😭 - but seriously - the special effects!)
Of course - an actor is in always their element with an audience!
My other son went to art college, but he's no son of mine.
Aaarms, I love that line
You can just see it in a bad movie
Omg! That’s the most surreal Foil Arms and Hog! Love it!
How Hog can look like a middle aged woman in one video and a military officer in another never ceases to amaze me. You guys' versatility is amazing
I‘m under the impression that Hog really enjoys these General Hogson characters
He definately does it well, it's a great character.
He’s a born military man! (And/or crazy military dictator!) 😁❤️💕 (what?! I like crazy military dictators. - if they’re Hog) 😁
😂
Great American midwest accent!
As a specialist in tree-impersonations, I must say that is some very complex, nuanced swooshing. Top notch. I'm getting oak... or pine tree
And the swooshing sounds! Seemed like a medium crisp autumn morning to me, 2, maybe 3 days after a rain...
The angle of the branches and the speed of the swooshing wind, he's clearly a poplar or wattle.
Now that is interesting as I had it more down as birch.
Of course he woud have played a most convincing tree. His "wooden" performance in Othello already spoke for itself, no? =D
He's going back to his roots 🌳 before he has to leaf 🌿
I love the dark theme and the metal sound somewhere. Reminds of interrogation of Santa Comrade lol.
thanks i spent AGES on it
Straight out of the cells on Torchwood, could’ve sworn they were on set!
Never forget the word that sends all actors into blind panic:
Macbeth!
*pinches nose HOT POTATO, ORCHESTRA STALLS, PUCK WILL MAKE AMENDS!!!
@@celinathommesen-kahler2142 I'd wondered WTF those two were saying. Thanks for letting me know.
AH! How dare you say the name you've doomed us all!
that's only in the context of the play and not the name.
And "good luck" tbf they are actually actors on set. They'd be crazy to utter those words just for comedy value
6am: It’s the middle of the night.
Me, a german: no it’s time to get to work?
haha
@Bigfoot Exactly! That’s the rule... 😃
Work's already started, dear neighbour!
In Germany if you are bang on time you are already late, you have to be a minute or two early
In Ireland time is relative and flexible. They even say things like we'll meet at 2.30 for 2 We are meeting at 2 but everyone knows it means more like 2.30. Or thereabouts.
"His acting was so wooden he should have been credited as part of the set"
I'm wheezing!
(Also, don't be so harsh, maybe he was just going through a creative BLOCK, eh?) 😂
The tree, maybe?
@@ericpraline yeah, at least he'd have a done a pretty good job with the BOUGH at the end!
@@shravani.a what a pun!
GROAN!!! 😁🤣😂
@@thealbanianlorg6542 this is the ultimate reaction I aspire to for my puns! 😂
I’m always struck by the writing, or relatable situations in these sketches, but today that changed. While those continue to be on point, today it is about something more. For me, it’s Arms’ and Hog’s reactions that MAKE this sketch. I laughed the hardest at their horror and awe at the Actor’s power.
Foil is, of course, very on point as well. Such power!! And the fact they address him as Actor slays me for some reason.
so well said. What makes me come back is their joy and sheer enjoyment of life. A good example to follow
Omg yes I love this sketch, the costumes, the edits, the moody lighting....the doomdah
I love how Hog doomdahed in character. Now THAT'S dedication.😅
And the sound design/editing!
“Mamma Mia imma so sad, looka what you made a-me do!” 🤣🤣🤣 a brilliant Sketch. I eagerly await Foil’s Oscar nomination.
Gosh... It’s this bad already and they haven’t even caught ’An Intellectual’
No... Not the intellectual! Anything but that
Any intellectual can be constrained via flattery and requests to explain things, especially from a person they’d be into.
Not to mention a scientist; a politician or, Heaven forbid, a teacher!
Probably their best sketch, ever.
I love how Foil is being all shy and silent in the outro.
“I’ll do anything... even panto”
“No you wont”
“Oh yes I will”
Best
Joke
Ever 😂😂
I liked, "I don't know what time the show ended but my watch said it was amateur hour."
Is that Foil or Benedict Cumberbatch? I really can't tell.
Benefict Crumblesponge*
benefoil cumberhog*
Bandersnatch Crumblebum
Battlefield Counterstrike*
It's Blackmirror Bandersnatch
I feel like Foil never gets to be this much of a ham, this was a complete delight.
1:38
Foil is a true actor, he has the "darling" down cold. 🤣🤣
This was one of foils best performances, he really is a great actor irl
Love the impressive reflections in the glass. The swooshing! “Oh yes, I will. “ Foil in a polo neck! And the reappearance of General Anaesthetic!
True! forgot about the general
Oh my god, I‘m so happy, this sketch cracked me up so bad in the live show, I was so sad I might never see it again😍😍
Oh you will, don't worry
I loved this one in the live show!
Omg - it WAS a live show sketch! Felt like one. Huh! 😳😁
Which live show was it in? I have to look for it!
@@dgsquare it's part of their Craicling show in 2018/2019. You can purchase it from their website or get free access by supporting them on Patreon
I love foil's reflection when we see the guard and the doctor. the whole sketch is brilliant though 😂😂😂
"He's swooshing in there!" Hilarious.
Reasons to leave TH-cam:
-Numerous issues that are never fixed
-Increasingly unappealing content
-Bad treatment of its users
Reasons to stay on TH-cam:
-Foil
-Arms
-Hog
Yeah, I think I'll stay.
There’s no choice I’m afraid! That pretty much settles it. 😁😫
I mainly just hate hate HATE the absurd ad count and length these days. Its practically making me think its the olden days of Yahoo and GEOCITIES website popups
That shot of the military men through the glass that lets you see the reflection of the actor between them is brilliant
Foil is missing one thing, he doesn’t have a moustache, what’s up with that?
He can't be too powerful
@@foilarmsandhog but he already is! 🤯
He’s to dangerous to be left alive
He does have one, he's just acting clean shaven
It is so nice that you and Hog agreed to be part of Foil's acting show reel. 😉
Well done. Pulling this off is harder than it looks. Great work!
Haha
Oh the tree brings back some old memories 💚 I got the part of a pine-tree in a Christmas school play (I wore a pointy hat & a layered green cloak) but I couldn't stand still so I would swing my arms around, do spins and squats during a particularily serious song. The audience later said that the pointy hat girl's "green batman" impression saved the play. Good times.
Very good Franciska - they wouldn't cast you as a tree a second time!
@@foilarmsandhog indeed - they actually casted me as an orangutan next
You’re a hero. 😁❤️💕 (and I would’ve definitely casted you again as a tree - anyone can play an orangutan - except probably not everyone can play a good one like you surely were). 😁
Almost choked on my drink at Hog's 'Never be afraid of a silence' line. Whole sketch is brilliant. I have been looking forward to this all day. Am telling everyone who will listen about Foil, Arms and Hog. Brilliant!
That one's clearly classically trained, you'll never break him.
Oh my god. This was one of my favourite sketches in Swines and I'm so happy to see it again! Thankyou so much ❤❤
It was always really a film sketch desperately trying to work on stage
@@foilarmsandhog well it works in both settings really well! 👏👏👏
I love how you know exactly what hats to use for each character.
The tree and swooshing! I’ve had to replay that portion 10 times at least. So silly but your clever writing, serious acting and dead on atmosphere make it so,so brilliantly funny!
One thing is the extremely great sketch, but do take one moment to appreciate Arms hair at the end, there.
Well done, guys! With both.
Lockdown has given the curls another six weeks. Longest its ever been now.
Thank you, Lockdown, for this. Hopefully it doesn’t get too much longer, though.
I predicted "He shall return with even longer and fabulous curly hair" 🔮
And now he has.
I'm kinda jealous he's pulling it off so well, lockdown and winter-hat-time just made me cut mine and dye green
I want his hair!!!!!!!
I always have to watch back to look at Arms because I always end up staring at Foil in outros. Especially in this one. He opened my long lost love for blonde men. xD Also, when not in character, Hoggy. He's just such a sweetie.
Well done making that car insurance ad. 🤣 🤣🤣 🤣just the type of thing to embarrass an actor
“Have his bones removed and examined”
It's a veritable Conorcopia! ❤️
Also Hog throwing shade at Foil's accent 😂
"NEVER BE AFRAID OF SILENCE, SON!"
This is my favorite line and it's not even part of the sketch.😂😂😂
That's just genius!!! The characters, the set, the costumes... (your getting your monie's worth out of that perspex screen aren't you?)
Absolutely, and some day we plan to clean it
@@foilarmsandhog the dirty screen was critical to the cinema veritas. But y’all knew that. 😁
@@foilarmsandhog It's more authentic if it's mucky... I ain't seen a clean one once!!
It looks like the inside of most people's visors when they catch the sun at a certain angle .
I love the final minute of this vid (3.35-4.35). It's great how they still clearly get on so well and make each other laugh, even after years of living/working together.
You know if that trap door had a floorbell, the General would be alerted every time a prisoner is trying to escape. Especially if it played Crazy Frog at 150 decibel 🤔
Thunder bell 😂😂
@@karinalee7314 That's the one! 😄 The greatest invention of all time. So useful!
@@mutrunen 🤣🤣 Though The Actor is smart, couldn't he mimic The Thunder bell, cause some misdirection and slip out the main cell door when they check the trap door??
@@karinalee7314 That would be an Oscar worthy performance. If anyone can do it, Richard can. 🏆
@@mutrunen 🔥🤣
“MAMMA mia , IMA SO sad, uh-LOOK ATA WHATA YOU MAKEAH ME do!”
Yet another splendid, original sketch, one of the best parts about watching your videos is seeing the title, thinking what the heck did they come up with now? and watching you nail it every time
"his performance was so wooden, he should have been part of the set"
Ah man I just spat out so much food
This should have won best sketch. 2020. Absolutely brilliant.
I have enjoyed so many older and present sketches by FAH now, and have come to enjoy them all. But there are just some so gleefully funny that I find myself watching them over and over again. This one is golden. Each of you is so freakin' talented! Thank you so much for the many laughs and dedication to all your posts every Thursday. We certainly appreciate it here-even out her in Alberta, Canada.
My dad is a general and he's the sweetest guy ever.
I cannot stop watching it and laughing - the set, the make-up, a crying Foil, it has everything!
A crying Foil - that’s a feature i imagine Arms and Hog enjoy. 😁
Foil always completely nails the crying, I don't know how he does it but omg, it is brilliant!
@@thealbanianlorg6542 Reminded me of Gri8 from Celebrity Lock-Up
lovely sudocrem gray on Hog there 😂
It really is the most graceful way to age
Have you ever seen that sudocrem in Dealz? .... Pseudo Sudocrem. Sorry ... I've been waiting years for the right time to make that joke and I think this is as near as I'm going to get 😁.
This was just fantastic! Loved the live sketch. So great to see the return of Richard the Actor.
He will never be restrained. As long as he has a scarf, a hat and a script someone else has written he is free
Plot twist : the general and the doctor are also actors, and they are just trying to stay entertained in jail.
Props to the Hungarian and Spanish subbers for taking the time to write out localized tongue-twisters!
Hog looks very realistic! Props on the costume and face hair!
So much awesomeness!
- #Fingo’sAussie(orKiwi?!)Lingo
- Return of Richard Chandley and General Anasthetic
- We get to see Arms IN the sketch this week!!
Are you happy now Arms? You made Foil cry again!😂
Very formally instructs: “Have his bones removed and examined.”
Love this sketch, you've really raised the bar with this one. 👏
The bar will be lowered for next week, we can't sustain this level of production
@@foilarmsandhog I don't think you need to, that sketch was more than enough. For the newer fans it's just a glimpse of your capabilities. You've managed to capture the energy of your live shows and that was amazing to see.
Take a bow, Richard Chandley III! Just absolutely top notch!
Although the review of Othello may have made me laugh the most... who wrote that?!? 🤣🤣🤣
we had another line that got cut "To call him ham, would be an insult to the much loved pork product"
@@foilarmsandhog That's GOLD!!
Oh this was just lovely.. enjoyed watching this so much. You guys clever as ever.👍🏼
Thanks Namrata
You know you're in for a great time when Foil plays an actor. Great job guys, and the set looks fantastic!
"He's either from Australia or New Zealand" hahahaha🇦🇺
The grieving Italian man just about killed me 😂 Great sketch guys, absolutely hilarious!
Man, the audio and the editing on this is really great - and those eyebrows on Hog! You guys are really upping your game...
That was HILARIOUS! Just all of it was pure brilliance!! Cannot wait to see the out-takes!!!
Best Foils performance ever! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Standing ovation!
This gives a whole new meaning to a ‘ military theatre of operation’.
I wouldn't have guessed this sketch in a million years , that's why I love this channel lol
Foil trying to join the banter at the end, so cute😂 the return and the rising of Arms is upon us
The SCP foundation will have a field day with this one
Bloody brilliant once again! My father is actually a Colonel and "he is such a sweet guy"!! HAHA! He's actually getting softer with age but the video is an accurate depiction of his younger years I must say
Loved Hog's beard + Arms' hair + Foil's Aussie accent + Hog's part in the doomdah + Arms' HAIR + Foils extra double "mmm-hmm!" (should name a company after that)
Omg I can see your comment!!!!! Hooray!!!!
@@genfisher2456 Whoohoo! :D
@@gimmethatplease2224 :))))
Foil is an SCP confirmed, and the AU Foundation is incompetent as all hell could offer lol. Loved the craziness of this one.
Is nobody going to talk about the set for this sketch. It's insane, every week they seem to have a totally new set
*furiously scrubbing my phone screen, because even the prison window is giving a stellar performance*
I can't name a favorite part, the whole thing is so hilarious! Kudos to the writer(s)!
Love how well the lighting works, the costumes, the review of the play, the sad Italian, the wife! And General Hog could have his own movie, if Hog can stay in character long enough 😉
Great to see you back on screen, Arms! You make for a good scientist, you'll probably figure out that his weakness might be Handguns! 👉
Best regards to _Fabulous Foil_ 🌹 Tommy Wiseau is proud of you!
Thanks for commenting, we're delighted people seem to like it.
@@foilarmsandhog Okay guys, you've charmed and entertained me during this horrible year. I have much to thank you for. 💚
What part of your merch gives you the most amount to keep?
Probably the shows to download? Is next up the USB? Additionally I just got a "what do you want for Christmas" and I'm not going to be shy about answering this time.
Sadly my bank account won't let me use patreon and I don't wanna buy a shirt, if half the money ends up elsewhere. (also you refused colourways that are not gray or black. I'm trying hard to shake that Emo-vibe I seen to be giving off).
So, what way to support you *best* with a few bucks while buying myself something fun?
I checked to see if it was my phone that was dirty, too!
Production value is so good 😊 Really makes the video. They need more credit for the effort that they put into these videos
Cheers Zoe, helps if we have a dramatic idea
This-is-pre-cious!!! Please, make sequels!! It could be the same characters, or the actor facing other persons. We need to see The Mighty Actor again!!
I'm realizing that my idea of the actor emulating an admiral was way off the mark, you exceeded the expectations - again!
This one was so funny this channel is underrated for the content
Thanks Scott
This may have been the best thing I've ever watched! Genuinely subverted my expectations! Rock on lads!
Great!
😁😂Hilarious lads!...Thank you!...My little toddler kept asking "what he say?...what he say?"....Sooo intrigued as to what the hell I was cracking up about.
That was so well produced...No end to what that office can become...Your creativity is endless.
“He’s either from Australia or New Zealand!” Aussies and kiwis - How dare you... how dare you.. 🤣🤣🤣
Was a tad bit disappointed that he didn't pull a full outback accent :p Since they're generally pretty handy with accents
They missed out “or South African” 😂
Absolutely brilliant, Hog seems to really enjoy the general character, he is very good at it, as all of you were at each. Thank you!
Hog looks good with grey hair.
Distinguished
@@foilarmsandhog self confidence and happiness are great ways to look good (:
@@foilarmsandhog Did I see some scruff underneath? I hope that means Hog is doing Movember, we need the comeback of The mustaches!
I still regularly quote the final live version lines with my sister, so so funny lads.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh
But why is there a tree.. IN A SUBMARINE??😂😂
So this is why Hog looks like Jürgen Prochnow in "Das Boot"!
Gonna keep that for the live show
😁🤣😂
Love, love, LOVE Richard, so pleased to finally see him live in Swines, hope you'll write more for him, he deserves more screen/stage time, Foil really hams him up to perfection and his run off stage is just 🤣🤣🤣
In choreography and dance production class, the professor actually made us do the tree impression. I thought she was joking at first, but she wasn't. That exercise was also a handy way of figuring out who was majoring in theater and who wasn't.
Ahhh I've been trying to find this sketch again for ages since seeing it live! Excited to see what the actor gets up to next ;)
The banter at the end was great! You looked like you were throughly enjoying yourselves!
Oh that was marvellous.
Like being given a big bowl of porridge and a mug of cocoa and a snuggly blanket and a teddy bear, and then being tickled by someone you love until you snort for the sheer joy of it.
I was today years old when I learned that this sketch was originally written for the stage.
That explains a lot honestly. It's so utterly brilliant and original, of course it's going to make the set list!
I'm not sure how you'd make this better or even as good live, but I trust you guys completely when it comes to quality comedy.
The outro is.... Well, it's FAHn heaven 😂
"My other son went to art college but he's no son of mine" - 🤣 Just pure GOLD 🤣
I quote "My god" all the time haha!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For Foil, he really did a superb job.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For Arms, his acting was fantastic.
And ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for Hog, he nailed it, like he always does.
I mean, how could I ever have another favourite channel, when this video exists here? It's impossible! Impossible I tell ya!
I’ve watched this 5 times and counting. I’m still cracking up! 😂
The grieving Italian gets me. Every. Time.
I’m running out of superlatives to describe your work Gents. Brilliant
Brilliant - utter genius!
Favourite line - "I don't know what time the show finished, but when I checked my watch it was Amateur Hour!"
That final gag being an anti-joke was brilliant. I was expecting him to actually disappear, and then come back for an encore.
