- French and English explorers (played by Don Ferguson and John Morgan, respectively),arrive in the new world to find the real Graham Greene waiting for them. Luba Goy introduces the sketch. First broadcast on CBC-TV's Royal Canadian Air Farce on November 18, 1994.
This was truly funny. I've always liked Graham Greene, wether he's blowing things up or being serious; the man knows how to be funny.
Ok, this was genuinely funnier than I thought it would be
Man, I miss this show and over the last few years, they would have had a comedic goldmine
This is SO awesome!!!!!! So proud to be a Canadian and it is so much fun to be able to "get it" when it comes to the humour.
My all time favorite Graham Greene roll is when he played the Demoltion Specialist on The Red Green Show
Edgar Montrose 💥
May Edgar K P Montrose live forever!!!!
@@eleanorlamont7375 Ka Pow! 😂
Only Graham Greene, a dramatic actor, can do such great comedy with a straight face.
Now the native guy was ok. Should've gotten an Emmy. The rest of the show was a yawn.
@@trajan231 Edgar Montrose The Red Green Show.
"You look familiar, weren't you in that movie, Dances with Wolves?"
"Yes I was."
"What was your name?"
"Kevin Costner." LOL
"Well there goes neighbourhood"😂😂
This made me laugh out loud. Thank you.
Brilliant.
Love Graham Greene! I think my favorite role wasn't in "Dancing With Wolves". It was as Edgar "K.B." Montrose on "The Red Green Show"! My favorite character on the show! KABOOM!
It does make him difficult to watch in any somewhat serious role when you automatically imagine nitro glycerine being used as liberally as duct tape
"Reason for visit?"
"Weason?! I am here to CLAIM ZIS LAND for ze glory of LA FRANCE!"
"Well, there goes the neighborhood..." :D
Many of today's American comedians can learn something from this.
So love him! That was great thank you!
I love Graham Greene! 😂
2:25 I always get a kick out of Graham's beaming affably-pleasant smile when he "breaks the fourth wall" here :D
It reminds me a bit of bug's bunny, in that smirky way
In 1997, "The Red Green Show" moved from Global to CBC, and in 1998, CBC moved Red Green to Friday nights right after RCAF. I mention this because Graham Greene played Edgar K.B. Montrose on RGS.
He's edgar montrose?
I heard the RGS was the lead in for Air Farce
My favourite Air Farce skit! Love it!
Don't claim the land, Cartier. Edgar K. B. Montrose wants to blow it up!
Thank you for posting one of my favourite bits!
2:49 LOL I love Graham's casually-sarcastic and totally-unimpressed facial-expression as "Cartier" blusters through his lengthy-spiel tirade about how important and "high-toned high-society" he is :P :D
❤️ Graham Green... 😂😂😂
This is incredibly awesome! Made me laugh, hoot, and cheer. The lines are great and the meaning heartfelt. Sweet nectar for my soul.
This was one of many I saw live when they taped it I was 11 years old
Saw two Mike from canmore sketches
One chicken cannon episode( the maple leaf gardens target)
One episode where Jean Chretien appeared
One episode I remember where Chretien appeared was the same sketch where Pamela Wallin also happened to pop up.
@bluebear1985 that was the one . They also filmed a Mike from Canmore sketch there too but it never aired cause it wasn't that funny
@pbabuik One thing I remember is that at one point, the real Chretien told Roger Abbott (who was still in character as Chretien at that moment) that he actually sounded a bit more like Preston Manning with his impression.😁
1:00 I love how the actor who plays Cartier contemptuously looks Graham Greene's character up and down with a show of deep disdain :P :D
Lord have mercy if this had actually been a thing back then 😂😂😂😂
HAHA I am Dogrib, Dene. Good ol Graham Greene :-D
2:26 "I love this job." 😏
Me: I love this man. 😁
Magic!
2:50 LOL --- I love how Graham Greene just stands by emotionless and sarcastically stoic while Cartier does his indignant rant. :D :P
Omg Roger Abbott had a “Billy Two Willies” First Nations character lol
When Graham Said "I love this job." Did he mean being an immigration officer or being an indian actor playing an indian customs agent?
How about just being a mighty manly man?
Yes.
Both XD
Go Natives!
Very funny.
I love the implication that bureaucracy is so set in its ways and unchanging that even during the european colonization of the great white north the natives would have used that exact font, kerning, and color on an immigration department sign🤣🤣🤣
Luv it!
love it
It’s been a long time since the channel had anything to do with learning!
dude, this is funny
Greene better mind he doesn't get lead poisoning, licking that pencil!
+MaskedMan66 lol... yeah, and he is using the "native tongue" that he speaks about to lick the pencil, too :D
(Now, actually, of course, pencil-cores are no longer made of the heavy-metal lead; they are made from a less toxic "graphite mixed with a clay binder" [thanks, wikipedia!], which is probably not all that toxic, but still should not be ingested)
Quacks0
Yes, funny that they're both speaking English...
Eating rocks in general isn't really a good idea.
Pencils are made of GRAPHITE, you ignoramus.
dude, this is funny! 😊😊😊
Please discover us for us!,
First one arrogant dude comes up with a FRENCH flag, and then another eager-to-take-over dude bustles up with a BRITISH flag :P :D
2:57 Same here
I claim ? Lol
The beginning of metis....
You are are you?
Indigenous People or Native Americans. The Indians are from India.
Best Graham Greene moment ever
French people have never been accused of bravery or intelligence.
