This is my reaction to Reaction To heute-show (Brexit: Dear Brits, please LEAVE ALREADY!) German political comedy
I have recently made a reaction to German satire and German comedy and one of the shows I reacted to was German satire political comedy heute show. In this episode they explore Brexit in more details
Original Video - • Brexit: Dear Brits, pl...
„Brits are too polite to be honest, Germans are too honest to be polite“ as they say.
Now we have to find the medium!
👍
to be fair i prefer honesty over politness if the well-being of me and my loved ones is endangered
Brittain vs Japan - who would win a battle of politenes?
@@nervsoulyopinion of a german who visited both countries for quite some time:
Japanese people win this 99/100 times. Brits are not the gentlemen of old times.
Actually brits are seen like elaborated eastern europeans.
If the Czech Republic ever leaves the EU and they don't call it the Check-Out i'm gonna be dead mad!
We´re not Hungary or Poland. We´re not leaving. Sorry.
Most, if not all countries/parties who wanted to leave have seen how fucked you are if you leave, Thus disbanding their plans/ideas.
@@Calucifer13 Hung-over?
Your suicidal example shut mouths of our own so called eurosceptics. Many thanks for that. Cheers from Czech republic.
@@Calucifer13 That's SANITY, Czech 😉
As a German this is the crossover I didn’t know I needed. :D
Haha yes! YT recommanded it and man it was good xD
I'm glad there is no voice over over the German so I can listen to it
Oh, how I love the As a german comments. so refreshing
Sprich Deutsch du Uhrensohn!
Jesus this comment blew up wtf
Watching this mess from the "outside" was really painful. Personally I would have liked the Brits to stay in the EU, but well... it is what it is.
It's not that germans are any smarter.
The mayority of peopel world wide fall for ridiculous propaganda.
It would have been enough to get a united Ireland and independet Scotland and Wales in the EU
My opinion, long before Brexit was: Stop troublemaking and No opt outs or out.
Brits chose "out" which was sad, but better then keep on scrounging.
Then, the years long Brexit-debate in Britian was only about money which told everything you need to know about the Brittish attitude.
If only we could get rid of the 2 remaining troublemakers Poland and Hungary.
@@benjamin2149 The arrogance of you
Even after the Breunion Boys? ^^°
Most europeans can distinguish between the British people and the British government. I feel sorry for the people who were against it and lost so much. At the same time I feel the politicians deserve that chaos they have created.
Brexit was the smartest thing they ever did. They saw it was a mistake and corrected it. The youngers did not know.
"Germany enters recession following economic 'collapse' - and experts predict the situation is only going to get WORSE for Europe's largest economy... as IMF sharply upgrades UK growth forecast"
@@vornamenachname906 The smartest thing they ever did? Britain is the only industrial nation that has a shrinking economy, which is a direct result of brexit. They lost a lot of trading that they are now trying to build back up. It's wasn't beneficial at all to leave the EU, even if the EU has some major flaws.
@@Dwarf2005 Haha I guess people reading the "dailymail" are also the one who voted for Brexit. They are known to be unbiased and very factual! Let's talk after you stopped reading propaganda.
Unfortunately, these politicians are the ones who generally suffer the very least. It is always the ordinary people and always the part at the bottom of the prosperity that suffers the most - and generally has very poor chances to change things for the better. Life is a bitch.
This is funny, and pretty typical of German humour.
As a Brit living in Germany, the day after Brexit, people came to us asking "will you be okay?" and "how can we help?" We got loads of assistance from individuals and the German Government so we could stay.
"... in English please..." is the most common sentence in German english classes.
I love the fact that they used „Peter Paul and Mary“ because that’s paying homage to one of Germany’s greatest comedians ever. A man named Otto Waalkes, who is a legend within German comedy at this point used these names for funny stories which he told in english and then translated to German in a way that the words used sound like their German equivalents but it created another meaning to these stories that ranged from silly and funny to straight up dark
Peter, Paul and Mary are sitting in the kitchen... 😂
@@luftpolsterfolie Peter Paul und Maria sitzen im Kittchen
And he gave her a kiss right in the middle of the face
I have great respect how well you explained that in English @saintbenny8287 :)
English for runaways 😂
When we say Brits, we mean mainly the English 😂
Everyone on this island is cool in their own way.Oonly the English are somehow very special😅
@@simonsays2774 Yes indeed 😅
Uhm, no.
@@jotwee63 Uhm, yes…
Aber wehe a german say's Sieg Heil...🤣🤣🤣
Love it when people can have a laugh at their own country's cost. It shows a level of maturity and skepticism.
I followed and follow the UK's politics and Brexit closely - it is a bit like an entertaining soap opera. 😅
It is amazing how opinionated british media is, they keep mentioning "new EU rules" that may piss of brits (travel woes, commerce), yet these are in no way new EU rules, just things slowy coming effect because the UK is ouside the EU and the grace periods of tariffs and border checks are expiring.
Right. While in the EU, the UK was pushing for those rules against "Third Countries" and now they've become one of those countries themselves. And keep complaining ...
@@JblackSupportTeam No we don't, stop putting words in our mouths
@@Bertie22222Stop pretending, your newspapers are still available outside the UK, and we can read English.
The end of the show is a bit anticlimactic.
@@SirHaviland Show proof
As a German who really enjoys the heute show it's nice to see it's also appreciated by you guys. It's a really great combination of satire and updates on what's happening on the world and in Germany.
The "cleaning woman" Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer was Merkel's successor as leader of the CDU. She had been Minister-President (aka Prime Minister) of the very small federal state of Saarland before, and she was thought to be the next chancellor candidate of the CDU to succeed Merkel, but she already resigned after only one year as the head of the party.
The "cleaning woman" was her custome for a political carnival show, which became infamous because she made jokes about transgender toilets and people wanting to have another gender on stage in that custome.
Just to add to that, the Saarlafisten joke was a pun on Saarland and Salafisten (extreme Islamic sect).
Not to forget her having been defence minister under merkel
Ach jaa, die Zeit mit Annegret Kramp-K(n)arrenbauer xD
@@the_washingmachine1295 The best part was foreign journalists trying to pronounce her name.
You know these people are disgusting
10:25
The sail boat is the "Gorch Fock", a historic marine ship used for training of new cadets. It needed an overhaul which got so costly a new sailboat would've been cheaper.
the point of tradition and history, really, is that it is tradition and history, as in old. building a new sailboat would be just dumb regardless of price. like building a brandnew dome in cologne. because it would be cheaper.... in the end the Gorch Fock got repaired. and rightfully so.
But what if you had to replace every plank on the sailboat, is it still the same sailboat 🤔
@@connectingthedots100 pretty much. nothing wrong with commissioning a new sail boat, it will just be boat. not the historic Gorch Fock. plain and simple, really
@@uliwehner The Gorch Fock is from 1958. Not really historic imo. And for the costs you could have built three brandnew ones.
For the UK people in this chat, we should explain the desaster:
- The sailing ship Gorch Fock was originally built in 1958 for the costs of 8.5 Million D-Mark (roughly 4.3 million Euro, not considering inflation);
- In 2015, it was decided to work it over for an estimated total of 10 million Euro; given the history of the ship and the loss in purchasing power a reasonable price;
- In 2017 the estimated costs skyrocketed to 75 million Euro;
- A few months later, in March 2018, the estimated costs were already at 135 million euro;
- the wharf wich had taken the contract went bankrupt over this renovation;
- In September 2021 the restauration was completed and the ship was handed over again to the Bundesmarine for the costs of 135 million Euro.
0:56 No, its not stereotypical, and im pretty sure its also not supposed to be. Its part of the pun. Its kinda hard to explain tho. Its pretty much calling this brexit thing and brits lethargic. and the word they used for it rhymes with 'Hängetit*en', being 'baggy b**bs'. Hence the pic combining the two.

The Italian "Ciao, Stronzi!" was left untranslated! XD
it means: hi tourist, i am italian, and i want your money.
Love you're Reactions and Accent much love from Germany 🙌
4:53 it’s also cool that they found an English translation for the joke! That’s not always possible as some puns can’t be translated.
I really like how you take German satire and German humor. Usually, Germans have a reputation of being quite humorless and stiff among many people from other countries. Spoiler: this is not true ;)
Anyway, the "heute-show" is a gem of a political satire. The host and all the other comedians who appear on the show are, in my opinion, the best in our country. I, as a German, am really pleased that this show and the satire in it, which fluctuates between subtle and brutal, is also well received outside Germany.
I like your videos and how you react to German comedy.
I think, besides Heute Show we also have Extra3, die Anstalt and, of course, Jan Böhmermann. ;-)
But I must admit all your other points.
We have great sense of humor here in germany, but we also have Mario Barth.
@@bobbygoestoabyss6624 And Pocher...
heute show exists, so that German citizens know about what they are allowed to laugh. It is a German govt. friendly propaganda show, which teaches spineless creatures mindless propaganda. Whoever finds that show funny has sacrificed his last working brain cells. The same goes with Extra3 and Jan Böhmermann.
Yeah right, only a German needs to be warned if a joke should be told in his dull life! You are like robots.. Just make sure programming are correct and the rest is predictable 😴🍻
A few months ago I was in the studio when they were filming the show, it was so good. You have to apply for tickets because the seats are so popular 😅
Also, don’t be ashamed of your country, our politicians are pretty embarrassing too. making fun of them is the main topic of the show 😂
lots of them can’t even speak proper English like you just saw.
He's Scottish, not English, so it's not really his country. It might be called the United Kingdom, but England is very much calling all the shots.
@@beardiemomyeah that democratic union of four countries were they can only do what england decides
Greetings from Germany 🤗 Very enjoyed your video and how you percieve our Heute Show! It would be very difficult to explain to foreigners how Heute Show works, but you're doing so good in understanding and explaining it!
It's really a pity that the puns they made in this episode (where they translated German sayings into English) are hard to understand by foreigners - you guys would love it 😂
And just in case some viewers need to hear it: We like British people very much, you are welcome here and we hope that we are still welcome in your country ☺️ We just brag about the Brexit itself, because it's honestly very chaotic and - in my opinion - a little bit unneccessary, so we want it to be over (but it's taking so long, thanks to British and EU politics). Germans express feelings like these by a kind of "humoristic/satiric shittalking" against everybody who is involved, but in reality we don't mean it that way 🤗 (Well, some of the Germans sadly do, and they say that very loudly, which makes it look like many people don't like you, but in Germany we say "Nicht geschimpft ist genug gelobt" which means "Not being criticized is enough appraisal" - so, since the vast majority of Germans don't criticize you, they like you very much 😂)
agree ^^
"Tina Hausten" is one of the character roles of the german female comedian Martina Hill.
... who just happens to be one of the greatest comedians in Germany in my opinion. :)
Gernot Haßknecht schlägt sie alle...
Its very funny to see you react to this. Im from Germany and have seen this episode (and most others) live on tv when they were published. Half of the jokes are also side-punshes to german things, like our millitary is quite famous here for not working - at all - and the "saarland" is a tiny part germany that is like - lets just say it does not exist.
I don't think germans are so direct, but german commedy definitely is. Thats the fun about commedy, this in-your-face mentallity. We also have this stupid commedy, but we also have this amazing "politisches Kabarett", which uses commedy as a way to spread education. My personal favourite is "die anstalt", but its very difficult to understand the meta-layer, even speaking german.
Overall, keep doing this, and keep spreading the contents to a international public. Have a nice day ❤
And "Salafisten" were a very conservative current of Islam that were active in Germany at the time and were heavily discussed in the media.
From a German: thank you for your refreshing perspective on the German sense of humour! Much appreciated :-)
2:23 I don’t think lack of education was the problem. It was the expert PR that exacerbated deep seated insecurity.
In my eyes it was clearly both.
"... deep-seated insecurity." - rather deep-seated resentment and self-glorification
Fun fact: a big part of education is to prepare you for eating propaganda - plus being propaganda itself often enough.
But yes: the majority of people falls for propaganda, no just the Brits by the way.

Man stupid people will never admit they are stupid because they know people who are even more stupid. But in the end both are stupid.
The "Saarlafisten" joke referred to the salafi movement which gained some attention in germany a while ago. However radical they appeared to be it seems they kinda faded away into insignificance. I guess that's kinda what they were aming at with this joke making it a word play connecting it to the home state (Saarland) of our former minister of defence. Might be that i just didn't get the point here though 😂
Has it _really_ faded away? Islamist endangerment numbers are quite high, according to the official state publications
@@celticwinter just my perception from following the news. Didn't read anything for a while about this particular group.
@@celticwinter I certainly haven‘t seen them in the Fußgängerzone, handing out Qu‘rans anymore
@@celticwinter The number grew sharply 2013-2017, due to IS "caliphate" and associated movements and peaked in 2020. While the "Lies!" campaign is not visible anymore, there are public missons, like "Street-Da’wa". (source: BfV report)
It might also be significant that they mentioned it together with Bielefeld, the town that doesn't exist.
Another recommendation: Extra 3
It's a comedy show from northern germany, similar to the "heute show"
9:38 The point with Saalafisten was a joke. Salafisten are actually extrem pro muslims. The Salafi movement or Salafism is a revival movement within Sunni Islam. Saarland on the otherhand is a forested, southwestern German state bordered by France and Luxembourg. Named after the Saar River, a tributary of the Moselle, Saarland is considered part of the greater Moselle wine region. Thats why wrote Saarlafisten instead of Salafisten.
As a German myself I find it very amusing that the same German news shows that are upset about German politics taking ages are also upset about the Brexit taking long.
I am writing my comment as a german who lived in London as a child in the late 80s/early 90s. The Brexit was a bad day for me. I was realy sad. I think that was a bad idea, not only for Britain...it was a bad day for Europe as a Union, too. I still love Britain until today. I had one of the best times of my childhood there. I still watch british tv shows and eat british food. I love the people and the culture.
It was interesting that you mentioned that one problem were the less educated people who were missinformated by propaganda. We have the same problem here in Germany at the moment. The fascist party (anti EU as well) is around 20% now. I am affraid lookin towards the next elections.
I hope the UK will join the EU some day again. Until then lets stay friends and hope the best. 😌👍
Yeah right, blame the reaction against elitarian policy making..
How are you enjoying latest multiculti enriching phenomenon in public swimming pools?
As you sow, you reap, lousy hypocrites 🖕🏻🤮🤷🏼
The whole "German Aircraft Carrier"-thing just came at the perfect moment. The German Navy owns an old traditional sailing ship, the Gorch Fock, and it had to get maintainance - what became a total mess... in the end it took them 6 years, cost millions of tax money and was just another embaressment for the german Army and Ministry of Defense.
And while this was happening, the Secretary of Defence talked about the great idea to build a CV meanwhile they cant repair a 100y old sailing ship.
(and yes I know, the real issue was the bureaucracy bs and some corruption, not the missing skills or knowledge - but still, pure Comedy)
I'd assume you've never seen work on wooden hulls or masts in a shipyard, because it's not like replacing a wooden board in your table. It might also have played a role, that A LOT of shipyard time frames in the navy were pushed into the unknown future for decades, because too little money was allocated. Yet the ships and boats were expected to deliver very high service hours.
It doesn't take a genius to realize that this might be bad. It should also have been pointed out in ARD media, because they themselves are not exactly suffering from too little money. Now, why would you think there was this oversight in reporting for decades?
As a German, I can only agree.
and they did not reach for the low hanging fruit of calling it a swimming airport 😆
@@celticwinter Ye, u assumend right - and I couldnt care less about how complicated it is, to repair a wooden ship - the ppl who are in charge are the ones who should care. This ship is a prestige object of the military of one of the richest nations on this planet and they were not able to repair it, without trouble - what an embaressment. Pure Comedy.
@@SovermanandVioboy The point is that it was repaired in that way is because people voted that way. I wouldn't call it comedic.
There's many shipyards in serious trouble, many closed since then, this really isn't recent -- ask the workers if they're having a laugh.
Maybe you would also like "neo Magazin royal", one awesome episode is about "Thiel" an German American entrepreneur and zhe episode is really epic. One episode about the Austrian government is also amazing
I'm replying in hope that it'll make this commend more visible, as I would love to see Mert getting into neo Magazin royal. Great suggestion!

I'm from Germany and watch the Today show every week. I'm so glad to see that you can enjoy this show as much as I do, even if you're a victim of the jokes. We germans love your dark humor like little britain for example. Sad that you are no longer part of the EU, but our humor unites us!
And we can laugh about ourselves alot wich I hope makes up for the sarcastic bashing they received there XD
Dein Leben muss ja traurig sein,wenn man die Heute Show als witzig betitelt.
@@sergeantsalty1236 Vielleicht hat er auch einfach nur mehr Humor als du? Willst du echt jemandes Leben am Humor messen? Wie traurig muss dann dein leben erst sein wenn dein Humor so stumpf ist das du nicht mal über simple Satire lachen kannst?
@@sergeantsalty1236 alles gut, deine Mum tröstet mich manchmal 😘
and don't forget, Oliver Welke from the heute-show is a voice of little-britain in the german dubbing
The Brexit was like a pimple popping: there was something that was unpleasant, and was pushed until it hurt badly in hope for relief, but all it left was more hurt and a hole.
You said it: "We need people like this" The service people like Pispers, Welke Böhmermann, (...) are doing to German democracy can't be highlighted enough! As the majority always was and still is too stupid/uneducated to make an informed and sensible decision when voting, the "heute show" helps those who at least have their hearts in the right place to make some sense of all the conflicting views and overwhelming amount of information out there. Yes, I do speak for myself here... 😉
If you truly believe Pispers, Böhmermann or Welke are doing Germany's democracy a service then you should count yourself to the stupid/uneducated.
Why don't you ever joke about muslim or leftist fanatics? Aren't they worth your precious time or actually predictable Leftist bias?
Pathetic Krauts 🤡
Nice to see that "our" Heute-Show is so appreciated in Englisch speaking countries! Anyway, you said there was no similair covarage in the UK: I recommand checking out Jonathan Pie here on TH-cam, his rants are definitly on par with the Heute-Show, especially regarding directness and sarcasm.
Just watched a video. He is more biting and less humourous. What separates the two is, I think, that the Heute Show lightens it up from time to time with a silly joke or picture.
Definitely gonna watch more of that guy, though, he is going at it.
Nono Jonathan pie is better by far. Sadly heute Show is rly "soft" on the critics and maaaan the Jokes are so Bad nowadays. Cringes down my spine 🥴
You think so? I think Heute Show is the last trash. It's politically motivated, not funny and arrogant. All they do is bashing People who are not in their Line.
@@Fame_Rate Sorry for not being in the target audience. I heard conservative comedy is really good, too.
@@Herr_Damit I assume with "conservative comedy" you mean watching conservatives making fools of them selves? 😉😁
i like how you dont just react but also put it in perspective from the british point of view
I appreciate your attempt to get a closer view into german minds or german thinking - that's absolutely impressive. Your way via german comedians or political entertainment by comedians may be a clever move because they do also explain us germans sometimes, what we may not see, deny or refuse to see in general or in particular contexts. The view from an external position often depicts flaws you'll never see when inside the mass. The comedian from his position is also extern somehow.
You have asked for different and more performers to learn more about german minds:
If you want to get deeper in this categories of german humour, reflexions and "education via comedy", you should not miss the famous Vicco von Bülow aka "Loriot" and his views around. An oldschool comedian without the very comedyish attempt, more an academic attempt in different styles: dialogues, role plays/scenes, monologues and cartoons. His program has been famous and much-loved from the late 1970ies until 1990ies. Clearly and slowly spoken and always presented with a sympathic touch of diabolic smile in his face.
And extra3
I have lived in the Uk for 20 years and have just re-discovered my German satirical roots. Yes, Britain needs hard-hitting political comedy!!!
It is so funny and so sad at the same time. I loved our UK brothers and sisters so much. And never wanted them any bad. And they left me anyways. 😪 It is so hard to see them suffer. But they wanted to learn the hard way that living alone is worse than living together. I am so sorry for anybody who goes through this while being against it.
The UK did the right thing by leaving this union of losers and is not suffering from brexit but from their own insane regulations and money printing! Would they vote out their woke eco government the UK could surpass the rest of the EU in no time.
Brexit is the best thing that could have happened to the UK. The hell are you talking about?

John Oliver had a great piece on Brexit too.
Did he pour a lot of Olive Oil on it?
and as far as I know, he did the first brexit piece before the election.
but, does he still count as british? just because he almost married a cabbage?

I love the Heute Show! I can also recommend the show Extra 3 and Die Anstalt.
Enjoyable only with left mindset
@@derschnurlich1512if you stand on the far right, everything's feels left to you.
Sweden was an EU country that did have 15% of our total EU trade with the UK. We felt slightly betrayed by it. Big companies like Volvo and Kopparberg have now started to talk to the media about how much money they have lost as the result of Brexit.
I'd recommend that you react to John Oliver covering Brexit, which was shown in the US, but not in the UK.
Some of the images can't be understood without context and good translations. "Hängebritten" was translated as indecisive brits. But it was a wordplay on "Hängetitten" / hanging tits. That should make the image more ... telling.
Its very sad for British young people and No-Brexit Voters that BRexit happened. However it fills me with very much Schadenfreude to watch British Pensioneers that voted Pro-Brexit be all baffled by the fact, that they now need Visas to enjoy their Retirement Houses in Spain. Thats just one of those "leopards ate their face" moments i really enjoy.
Wunderbar. Ich weiß zwar immer noch nicht wer Mert ist, aber die Reaction war sehr lustig.
While i rarely watch TV nowadays, this guy from the "heute-Show" you just watched is just great, he sprinkles comedy in serious topics, makes them interesting and fun to listen to, and mostly he talks plain and simply facts.
And yeah, Germans are pretty direct but it also varies from are to area: lets say you messed up at work, your supervisor or someone else will say to you "Hey man, you meesed up there", while in the area i grew up in its more like this "hey, you f*cked up!"
It varies from "calm to Severe seriousness" xD
nice reaction.

Never think that what is shown in our media is what we typically think of a people
I think some of the jokes were so harsh because they were fueled by bitterness. Deep down even when Germans and other Europeans said they were just fed up with brexit taking so long and Britain should just get it over with everyone (at least the ones who support the EU) still wished they'd somehow change their minds about the whole thing. It was quite painful to watch a powerful trading partner and "cultural ally" leave, especially during times in which only a unified Europe can hope to still be seen as a global player. There have been multiple forces, many of which supported by foreign powers, who only want to cause friction among Europes nations to ultimately "divide and conquer" and it was worrying to see their tactics work.
Industry and trademanagement in the EU may be bitter, population not so much ;) All people I know just said "Why don't they leave already and stop whining?". What would a single person in the EU would've gained, if the British stayed in? We just felt sorry for the nearly 50% that would've wanted to stay. Everyone in the EU knew, that Britain didn't pull they weight in the EU. They mainly took. That's not how it works. That's why the owned a huge amount of money to the EU.
(Oh well, we were sorry, Scotland left)
Typical woke nonsense. No ordinary EU citizens cared about those clowns finally sailing their preferred course... Quit that universal crying by any chance, except for extreme occasions, then you are cowardly silent! 🥱🤮
I love your Scottish language! And couldn't imagine that foreigners watch "Heute Show". Incredible!
The self depreciation reminds me when the multimational NATO maneuver "Air Defender" was on in June.... We had British helicopters over (amongst all sorts of foreign forces) and they were practicing formation flying.
Two colleagues watched them when one said:
"Aren't they flying a bit too close together? ...Our pilots don't do that."
The other one responded bluntly:
"That's actual military right there, you know."
for my family and me its a tradition since years: watching „Heute Show“ every saturday morning at breakfast. sometimes we get stuck in our throats for laughing. sometimes you can't believe the absurdity that daily and world politics brings out again.
in every respect, our absolute favorite show on television!
Of course you love it. Predictable and harmless. Eating and drinking while having your preferred prejudices confirmed.. 🥱🥱
You have to watch the video in which Lutz van der Horst tries to sell some products in the UK. It's from the Heute Show too and even most of the time in english. The topic is also the Brexit. Btw nice video!
I am so sad about Brexit. Sad for the young People.
small sidenote for 4:16
he says "Billionen" while the subtitles say "trillions"
this is NOT a mistake, since in german we have Milliones->Milliarden->Billionen->Billiarden and so on while the english language just has millions->billions->trillions->quadrillions and so on
I don't actually know where that comes from (never taught in school and never really cared enough to Google) but it's a weird little source of potential misunderstanding related to very big numbers specifically
The segment towards the end was btw. also a parodie of the way english was taught for way too long in German schools. Complete with tapes where you could listen to those awkward texts. Also very similiar to the lessons on the "telecollege" (since TV is supposed to be educational, they acutally tried to do lessons over it).
Me as a german am really happy you know and enjoy the heute show 🙌🏻🤗
6:28 In my experience with Brits, most would dismiss and mock the show out of hand because it’s German.
10:24 That ship is the Gorch Fock, German Navy training ship. It's mentioned here because they made plans to renovate it - with the original cost estimate totally blown.
After they started renovations, they found a lot more problems with it - making the total renovation more expensive then a completely new build.
Inbetween, the company filed for bankrupcy. A total desaster on every level.
What you probably don't get: he came from "Hängepartie" (cliff hanger) to "Hängebritten", which in German triggers your mind to "Hängetitten" (saggy tits).
So he basically called you guys the latter, but without saying so.
I love how it works on english too
saggy brits - saggy tits 😂
As a German who boycotts German television great thanks for giving me the opportunity to see this with your additional comment which made something funny but onn point even better. And yes we Germans can be that honeest that others might think we forgot our politeness, which is sometimes really true. But don't be sad Brits from all over the island, with our new "ampel" traffic light lol government, making one stupid counter productive decision after the other you have all the opportunities to fight back in revenge. 😂
09:27: Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer was Minister President of Saarland, Secretary of Defense, Federal Chairwoman of the CDU, and possible successor to Angela Merkel. The picture comes from the carnival.
Of course, the inhabitants of Saarland are not called Salafists. 🤣
I‘m from Germany and I can‘t believe you don‘t have a handling like this with the Brexit in TV Shows. I‘m watching the Heute Show for more than a decade now and feel really enthusiastic about you liking and appreciate it. You‘ll surely find more episodes whitch interest you. For example Scholz, the CDU or the german minister of transport.
I‘m also recommend Till Reiners in „Till to Go“ about the church and the „german way“ with the church like Kirchensteuer.
Keep moving on an and I have to admit I really like your northern accent👍
Good Job💪
9:38 It's a pun. Of course people from the Saarland (one of germanies 16 federal states) are called "Saarländer". But Oliver calls them "Saarlafisten" which sounds similar to salfists (which is a radical muslim movenent, which is partially under surveillance by our secret service of the interior ).
The Scottish Akzent given water to my eyes. Beautiful. ❤
It's really hard to watch - I am still so sorry this happened and I feel for all the ordinary people who now suffer for it.
Look for Till Rainers! He is my favourite German Comedian 😉
Or Jan Böhmermann
0:41 About your question wether that is how we imagine Brits to be: No, not really. They chose that specific image, because it is a visualization to a play of words, that they didn’t even try to translate. „Hängebrittten“ is half way brits, half way breasts that gave in to age and gravity. Because it’s at the same time a comment on the Brits not making up their mind, it fits what he wanted to say, while being a play of words. 😅
the Show "Die Anstalt" is a satire show sometimes like a musical and very informativ.
wanted to do Erasmus in Scotland, but Englond took them down alongside themselves
Austrian here :) I love the Heute Show. I always hoped to get at least Scotland back into the EU
I just realise how different perception can be. I'm german. I am a sucker for our comedy and satire... and being used to it the "Heute Show" is really mainstream and ... soft. rather simplified in contrast to "Die Anstalt" and tame compared to the solo programms of some political satirists. but I really apreciate it because it's a weekly show. it's a nice thing to watch on a friday evenening. and I'm surprised that the UK doesn't seem to have anything like it.
und das ist alles normi-comedy gegen rantertainment wie "die vulgäre analyse""kasperkast""Honigwabe" "gabbagandalf" und "clownie" viel spaß damit, wenn du anstalt gut fandest ist das n ganz neues level. volker pisper wirkt gegen die jungs wie mario barth
@@harambo88 dann zieh ich mir das mal rein. mal kucken wie ichs finde.
@@karowolkenschaufler7659 hoffe dir bringts soviel gaudi wie mir^^
@hakimmohamad6216wenigstens einer der das genauso sieht hier. Thematik und Narrativ sind eindeutig rauszuhören, oft einfach dem Trend folgend. Finde das garnicht so lustig, aber jeder sucht nach Bestätigung und Antworten, also kann ich es den meisten nicht mal verübeln.
Well... That picture in beginning is kind of stereotypical for the english people you meet on vacation. Only thing missing is the sunburn😅
love your channel!
6:43 You had "Screenwipe"/"Newswipe" with Charlie Brooker, which is on par, sometimes even better than German Kabarett. When I asked a ZDF Kabarett writer whether they knew Charlie Brooker, the answer was: "Of course!"
Oliver Welke and Martina Hill (she did the English lesson) are legends in German comedy shows. Love this sense of humour and the sarcasm and criticism behind almost every single statement...
Schön, dass du dir deutsche Comedy gibs mag ich aus deutscher Sicht
I like that you like german comedy (from a gemran perspective)
No, we dont think Brits look like the guy at the beginning, its just a parody. Germans dont run around with Picklehaube helmets either, but are often depicted like that in sensationalist British newspapers. A stereotypical Brit would be someone with either pale skin oder a bright red sunburn ;). Actually if i had to picture typical Brits, i think of Rowan Atkinson and John Cleese, i guess they formed my expectations.
You forgot to mention that a typical Brit gets sunburn in the shadow.
@@rainerziehtkatapultenachgo9001 Ease on down tiger, i've seen plenty of sunburnt, beer bellied Germans.
@@Buckets1000 you’ll be a bog ape then.
@@Bertie22222 I know, but the question was how we imagine Brits. Also, you forgot tennis socks and sandals in your summary.
@@rainerziehtkatapultenachgo9001 I wasn't summarising Germans, i was saying that i have seen fat, sunburnt, badly dressed Germans too. The difference is that the Brits are demonised if we generalise about Europeans but the other way around is acceptable.
Not only did the UK take the EU hostage. England took Scotland hostage as well.
Don't worry this is not the typical british stereotype which comes to my mind
About your question... We have multiple stereotypes. First there is the distinguished Gent in a suit with a bowler, then the snobbish nobles and third the bringe drinking football fan at Mallorca. 😊
At the beginning, when he called you "indecisive brits" he said "Hänge-Briten", which is an innuendo to "Hänge-Titten", meaning "sagging tits". That's why that image of a brit they used, is one of an overweight man with said sagging bits.
(I used hyphens in the german words to show the parts of the composite nouns.)
Also, the subtitles didn't translate the last bit from the Italian woman, the "ciao stronzi!". It means "Bye, assholes!"
Also, also:
The german TV station ZDF is one of the stations funded by Germanys mandatory TV tax. The regular news show of the ZDF is called "heute" (meaning "today"), and airs daily at 7 p.m.
The "heute show" airs weekly, fridays at 10:30 p.m.
Just found your channel, love it! 😂 Greetings from Germany! ✌️
The funniest thing I saw,was the german comedian bringing brexit care-packages to the UK,perhaps someone in the cs could help out with more details,please
You mean this?

@@MitmachGaming yes,thanks!!!
It's cool that you like our humor! Die Heute Show started off as the German version of The Daily Show -- I'm surprised that there was not British equivalent.
As a German, I'm not sure German comedians are more direct than British comedians. Like, we've got NOBODY on the level of Jimmy Carr :D
One of the strengths of British "stand-up" comedians like Jimmy Carr is their repartee. They encourage audience members to heckle and come back with fast responses (etwa: eine Schlagfertigkeitsprüfung vor gesammelter Mannschaft).
There's always your home boy John Oliver. His show _Last Week Tonight_ has basically the same format and the same kind of humour. Since he wasn't well received in the Home Islands, he went to America, where he found the same kind of mainstream media making people dumb, but also found an audience appreciating his satire on the establishment and other international issues.
11:13 - Tina Hausten = Martina Hill → th-cam.com/video/_oowxXsAi7c/w-d-xo.html 🙈😇
This Guy is Oliver Welke and befor like this he was a Sportsmoderator by ran.... ;) lovly greetz from Berlin Germany
I am a native german from germany, i have seen all the Heute-Show Brexit things years ago.
Iat this point at English for Brexiteers i have to apologize for the language niveau of the show.
The main viewer of ZDF is above 50. And often only learned english in school, never used it afterwards and forgot 90% of it.
So the creators use a very simple and basic english for those. The germans, who grew up in the 80s and 90s learned english with games and other media.
Hello from Germany! If you like shows like that, we have also ˋextra 3´ its also a great satire show. 😂❤
