As a catholic doing repairs in a protestant bar in Belfast I remember phoning my boss and saying
"come and get me before they kill me"
Really?
Was those repairs needed in the bar after another IRA atrocity ? And you and I both know you either lied about your religion ( a sin if I recall ) to be working there in the first place or your talking utter b@llocks.
@@MegaSpideyman Don't be a dick.
How would they know you are a catholic? 😮
@@archaeoPeter They know
Cany believe the lobster was a IRA assassin
His name is Larry. The IRA promised to buy him a weight set so he didn't have to use anchor arms anymore.
What a twist
A very unshelfish act
Can’y
Gross
The cinematography, the score, the editing, the sound mixing, the subtle use of visual effects - God, this show had a strong crew!
My understanding is that Mountbatten was a bad guy and a bad officer as well.
@@RichardTLDR Even if that was true (and even if that tells you that the man, his children, grandchildren... all deserved to die in a horrible terrorist attack), what does that have to do with any of what I said about the work of the show's crew?
@@RichardTLDR Yes, all of them were bad. The whole system is and was bad. We're all bad.... bad bad bad bad..... seems the left has its act together, bedsheets and gutteral chanting.... no bad people in that system.
@@RichardTLDR Actually he was well liked and lead from the front! (The portrayal of him in "The Longest Day" is spot on according to the veterans who say him that day!!!)
alright Nigel - yeah i enjoyed working on this with you mate ;-) see ya Wednesday
I love how the queen sees the vehicles coming and just knows it can't be good news.
Well sadly, she had a history of getting bad news on vacation!
It was in the script 🤷🏼♂️
They wouldn’t disturb her otherwise
The monarch is allowed to go on planned excursions I’m sure some security was with her, but mainly she was spending time with her family. She should have been having a nice peaceful day. With so many people rushing to get that can only mean something happened and they are bringing her LOADS more protection or dignitaries to speak to her IMMEDIATELY. That can never be good. Otherwise they could just wait until she returns
Likely MI5 did it, Mountbatten had a very shameful personal life that would have destroyed the British establishment.
Sadly, the female lobster was not, in fact, able to go have her babies in peace.
Your attempt at humor is disgustingly in poor taste.
@@johndoerner8790 I disagree, for I am hiiiiighly amused.
High IQ level comedy 😂
Cynical humor is the laziest of all humor; Apparently that describes your taste, and intelligence.
@chrishamblett945 . Actually very low level. Maybe you laugh at " Fart " jokes. You probably do.
I remember living in London at this time. Every lone backpack was treated as if it were a bomb. It's always a good time to be young; that was true for us, but it was also a very frightening time to be young.
The conflicts at the periphery of empire always make their way to the imperial core eventually
Did you have no Blacks no Irish no dogs sigh?
Well for us in Ireland ,it wasn't every backpack ,but every foreign soldier with guns ,that frightened us.
Those and the sadistic loyalist death squads ,who with Intel and weapons from the RUC ,would roam the country looking for innocent Catholics to murder.
Maybe u shouldn't have attacked the Irish people and give them independence and freedom huh? Don't u think it's a better option?
I remember. We were taught never to set a shopping bag or anything down and take a step away even just to look at something just in case someone thought you were leaving a bomb.
Charles Dance is like 0-2 against the Irish.
800 year lead kidda lmao
0-3 if you count Eddie Murphy taking out Sardo Numpsa in The Golden Child. I mean, he is named Murphy...right?

Let’s not forget that on the same day Mountbatten was murdered the British Army also lost a total of 18 men in the Warrenpoint Massacre, the largest number of soldiers killed in a single incident during the entirety of the Troubles.

@@JimJam8008well earned hate.
@@DiscopediaTheBoogieManhow's that working out for you 😂. Remember its called ulster
@@JimJam8008 Because the brits are colonizers.
I remember watching this episode, despite knowing what was going to happen, and just feeling shocked all the same. What a way to open the fourth series.
If it’s really true to history it would mention that Mountbatten was a pervert
It was an explosive season opener, for sure. I wonder if they were worried the series was starting to bomb?
I met the boat handler (captain) in Donegal once and he told me he should of been on that boat that day. Thankfully he wasn’t on that boat. His brother lived in England and was getting married and wanted him to be best man. Unfortunately he couldn’t afford the tickets to England but on the day of the explosion he headed to catch his flight as he be out her paid.
I’ve also stood where the IRA was most likely watching the boat from the sore. Was a eerie feeling.
From the perspective of the lobster, this was a comedy.
Except that all but one of the lobsters was blown up and even that one may not have been far enough away to survive.
Studies have shown lobsters have sentience. They mate for life, enjoy holding claws with their mate, and can live more than a 100 years. For the lobsters perspective, it’s probably horrifying.
Apart from the tinnitus it suffered the rest of its life.
I heard lord Mountbatten was a pedo
lobster died from the pressure wave
"oh dear, it's never good when they come in packs like this."
Such a well acted line and for some reason weirdly funny
Brits travelling in jeeps was always bad news ... mostly for them
British establishment has yet to officially acknowledge mountbattens connection with children
Care to elaborate for us Yanks who don't keep up with the Royals.
Look up mountbatton and kincora boys home.
@@Robert-sg1mi literally one reporter made a claim with zero evidence. Most likely a load of bullshit.
@@kirkwhite8600 I thought you guys could read English. He had a connection to children. You think you can work that out?
@@morerobotwarscontent1476my gosh.. it was an honest question.. calm the f down girlfriend
One of the most perfectly paced scenes I have ever seen.
I remember when this happened, and reading that Mountbatten, who still loathed the Japanese for their methods and treatment of British prisoners in Burma and Asia in WW2, had insisted that no Japanese officals be in attendance at his funeral. In another story, I think he was the British Raj top dog at the time of Indian independence in 1947, and its civil war leading to the creation of Pakistan. Some time after, he and Lady Mountbatten went to Pakistan to visit its first independent ruler, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who was known to be a massive stiff. Jinnah had prepared a cute little line to say with them in front of the cameras, expecting that LM would stand between himself and Lord Mountbatten for an official photo. Instead, they positioned Jinnah between themselves, but being a stiff, he said the line anyway, which was, "Ha ha, a rose between two thorns." And there was general discomfort all around. 😂
Japanese stay smoking that Mountbatten pack
@@totoroidJapanese stay getting melted by fat man 🌬️
I wonder did any of his "boys" from Kincora Boys School attend his funeral.
@@TH3CAPN that wasnt even from the brits. yall had to sit on the sidelines while the yanks won the war
@@totoroid sounds like cope lad
I remember this happening when I was a child, with my parents watching it on the news
Me too, I was 11.
A woman I worked with spent nearly two days being questioned by the Irish police about this incident. On the two nights before she had been drinking in a bar with two of the suspected culprits. The fact that she was a young naive Australian woman initially did not cut any mustard. She was eventually released.
Ouch don't mention children and Mountbatten...

I was a member of the Royal Guard when the Queen Mother was made Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports earlier in the year, we were told that if a major incident happened we would be top of the list to form whatever the ceremonial needs for that incident would be because of the training we had just completed. Subsequently we were the guard for Navy Days in Plymouth over the August Bank Holiday weekend. The news of Mountbattens murder came through on the last day of Navy Days and within an hour of marching off we were on coaches heading to HMS Excellent in Portsmouth where we began training to pull the funereal gun carriage for Mountbattens funeral.
Nobody cares
@@RobK32 Well I suppose when you make comments like that it's not surprising nobody cares what you think.
Never mind anyone else your story is fascinating! If you don’t mind answering how many hours of practice did you have to do when learning and staging out the route for the funeral gun carriage procession?
@@RobK32 i dont cos this guy served our country so hes a hero unlike you sat in mams spare room doing nothing with your life dude
@@lizziedale905 Its a pleasure to tell you about it!
We found out the news of his death on Monday 27th August and that evening we were taken by coach to HMS Excellent in Portsmouth which was the Ceremonial Training Establishment for the Navy. The following day we were split into the three teams that were required which were Gun Carriage Crew (140 men) plus the Naval escort (150 men) and the bearer parties, plus associated Officers and Senior rates which meant, all in all there were over 350 personnel. The men were brought in from all over the country but as we from Plymouth had formed the Royal Guard for the Queen Mother we were the nucleus of the gun carriage crew. Also in the GCC were senior rates who wore junior rates uniform just for the honour of participating.
After day one of sorting and sizing all the ratings we were taken every day of training to Eastney barracks in Portsmouth for the actual training - usually 9 hours a day - as Eastney had an archway the same size as Horseguards Arch which was important as the crew had to reduce ranks to pass through the arch so this was vital training for the day.
We trained in Portsmouth with a practice gun carriage for just four days before moving en masse to London, staying at Pirbright barracks, for three rehearsals on 2nd, 3rd and 4th September marching the route with the gun carriage at 5 am on the first 2 days and 3 am on the 3rd day.
Day of the funeral we were taken into London in five coaches at 6am with a full Police escort which, at some points, meant us being driven at top speed down the wrong side of dual carriageways, going through red traffic lights and even round roundabouts the wrong way. Finally being dropped off at the Royal Mews where the ceremonial gun carriage was prepared for the day. The wonderful personnel at the Royal Mews supplied us with copious quantities of tea and biscuits and opened up the mews for us to look round all the state carriages used by the Royal Family.
The memory of the day of the funeral is still etched in my mind, the most significant memory is that, except for the sound of the band preceding us, everything was silent. No noise from the thousands of public who lined the streets to watch the funeral.
After the coffin was taken into Westminster Abbey, we marched off round the corner where our coaches were waiting and were immediately whisked off back to Portsmouth.
Mountbatten had a unsavoury reputation
he was a pedo
Like many of these so called Royals in England
Unsavoury = should have been imprisoned for life!!!
Yes he was a big supporter of young sailors and was well known for happily taking a load of Able Seamen on his poop deck.
He was a paedo.
Production values were strong with this one. Done with drama and sensitivity, don’t forget two young lads died that day too.
That's one lucky Lobster!
That's GOTTA hurt!
The underwater shockwave of the explosion would have unfortunately gotten her too.
@@MemoirsofaBasketcase thank God we have a marine biologist here. I'll definitely take some TH-cam snots word for it
@@ConroyMatheson Are you ok dear?
@MemoirsofaBasketcase doubtful. It wasn't a very powerful explosion, enough to destroy a small boat? Sure 50 lbs of explosives, and was not desigened to create shockwaves (like a depth charge would), most of the blast was transmitted into the boat, people and air. Little would be transmitted directly into the watter.
During this scene, all the royals are trying to kill things. Hmmmm.
What else is there to do at
Balmoral but hunt game
and fish? Oh I suppose
they could do Scottish
dances (they do watch
the Highland games)
I love how the two IRA men make off in a car registered in Great Britain. Nobody will notice!
The attention to detail was perfect. All the Land Rovers were pre-1980s models too.
Well they’re from Northern Ireland so I would be a uk registered car
@@Kevlar10k No. I said the car was registered in Great Britain; I didn’t say the UK. The registration on that car is a huge oversight. It’s a car registered in Great Britain, not in Ireland-north or south. They also wouldn’t have a car registered in the north: it would draw immediate attention.
The horrific sideburns are a dead giveaway I’m afraid

“ Ay?”
I had the chance to visit Classiebawn Castle in County Sligo over the winter. A huge castle which sits on the edge of the cliffs. Magnificent views and sad history with the Mullaghmore village...
Just so you know Mountbatten had a taste for young boys.
Boiled with a side mint sauce ?
Allegedly, yeah.
Nothing new considering one of the Royals was Jeffrey Epstein best friend
too soon 😅
Ironic, the IRA being Catholic should’ve related to that
As a lone twin I merely feel the pain of losing your twin. Worse than losing your mother or child as you had an identity without before that. A very difficult and complex loss. May his memory be a blessing.

@@vangroover1903 I gotta go back and rewatch the series just because.
It was a bank holiday Monday. The whole family had got together for a picnic. I was a kid and had never heard of Mountbatten. My cousin arrived and announced what had happened. Everyone went very quiet. First bit of news I remember really. This and Warrenpoint.
Cinematography is top notch
I have Philip Zieglers book on Mountbatten with one chapter on it. Had read it a couple of times but now watching it is different !
Did it mention in the book that he had a thing for kids?

Any links to that please?
Have come across similar reports concerning Mountbatten..he was a pedo. Those boys shouldn't have been on that boat, not a clean or honorable operation by the IRA. Do not involve civilians
Smh. Sick
Exactly
Was the brothel at least called Malteasers????
I remember that day well. I was part of a Royal Navy ship refit. An officer walked up to my friend and i and told us about the assassination. He turned around…no more convo… walked away. Seems like yesterday.
Boy, it must have felt like he had just dropped a bomb........
My mom visited England shortly after this happened and when she arrived at the airport in london and was going through customes two British police officers stripped searched her because she had an Irish surname. It didnt matter that she was American or that she was only half irish all that mattered is that she had an irish last name.

It's why she missed.
Well lots of little boys and guardsmen were saved from abuse, allegedly.
Cannot believe they had Charles Damce play Mountbatten.
He was also Sardo Numspa in The Golden Child, so many did not tears shed.
I remember the Joke in Belfast at the time about Mountbatten definitely having Dandruff because they found his Head and Shoulders on the Beach. We never thought about that Dad who lost his precious innocent Son on that Boat that Day. So sad.
Scum of the earth.

Paul Maxwell, aged 14. Still, the family loyalty to that shampoo brand is remarkable. It turns out Diana used it, too.
Yes
My father had a picture of himself included in a whole group of school boys who had their picture taken with Lord Mountbatten when he visited Australia. Having met him first hand, he told me how sad it made him when this happened.
Picture with a paedophile?
Guess they were safe around Mountbatten as long as the cameras were rolling…
Pity they ignore the poor children who were sexually and physically abused by the prick!!!
There's always one comment. Super pathetic
@@ConroyMathesonwhich comment ?
People who harm children ,should receive no sympathy
Maybe just fucking maybe the British shouldn't have forced their rule on people then. I DON'T see you crying for 1 million people that died as reult the British Genocidal Famine of the Irish. Payback is a bitch. We owe perfidious Albion more payback.
Like the royals?
Yup ,in this case ,both the IRA and Royals are guilty.
The Royals don't intend to harm people but like nearly all of us, sometimes they do.
The IRA intended to kill, which included the 'children' on the boat.
There is a night and day difference between people who intend ill and those who fail to prevent it. It is what distinguishes civilization from anarchy and anybody who can't make that distinction has nothing useful to teach the world.

What about the dozen and a half queens own that got blown away that very day
From India🇮🇳
Shout out to Assassins Indirectly you take Revenge for India too.
For those who don't know Mountbatten was the same Guy who ordered to destroyed Indian National Army Memorial in Singapore.
And we don't forget he and his Wife Role in India's Partition in 1947.
Mountbatten had nothing to do with the savage warfare of Muslim v. Hindu just after Partition, nor the dire poverty, pollution, and overpopulation for which India is now famous. Find something else to whinge about.
If children were on a boat with that man i seriously doubt they were enjoying themselves.
:(
There were other adults on the boat, including Mountbattens daughter with her husband and their child. Even if the allegations are true, nothing of that sort happened on that trip.
Poor boys.
The chick with the scoped rifle missed because her barrel was placed right on the log, which affect the barrel whip.
It shoud be pointed out btw that Martin Charteris was no longer the Queen's private secretary when Lord Mountbatten died. He hadn't been her private secretary for nearly two years by that point.
Well said. The Queen's staff famously had to phone Whitehall to find out what had happened Mountbatten, her footman had heard the news on the radio before anyone at balmoral knew anything.
Now do one about all the Irish that the British exterminated over the centuries
I would find it funny if it wasn't so deplorable to excuse terrorism. People like you believe in the ideology of "it's fine depending on who's doing it" and always say "b-but he-he did it first!"

I'm fairly sure that, when the boat explodes, you can see one of the characters' truncated torso sinking away to the right of the screen with one arm outstretched.
I'm not from the UK or Ireland but Mountbatten really should not have been there. He knew what was going on with the Troubles and should have stayed away. The poor kids though - inexcusable.

Good ol Mountbatten because of whom South Asia have been unstable for more than 70 years. I wonder how he is regarded in England.
Don’t know about England but I know how most people in Ireland think of him.
Whatever you think of him, he was not responsible for Muslims wanting a separate state where they would be a majority. Or do you think things would have been better if they had been forced to accept Hindu rule? There was never a whole state called India until the British made it one. Why then should it remain so when they left?
@@wingnut71 Please educate yourself, India is a secular state, not a Hindu rule. India is home to 3rd largest muslim population at 176 million meanwhile UK is crying about muslims when they only have 3 million muslim population. Your argument would have made sense if all muslim population would have relocated to Pakistan, but most of them stayed, Why? Because partition was dumb. Today every muslim benefits from the policies of the government of India, rather they benefit more because of high % of them being in poverty level. Similarly, muslims in pakistan would have enjoyed this privilege rather than suffering financial and security crisis that is happening in present day pakistan and India would have had one less conflict to worry about, acting as a stronger counterweight to China. Despite the online propaganda stirred by the political parties, let me tell you that muslims live in peace, they practise their faith with full freedom and a very small minority of people from both religion hate each other which probable given such huge population, rest live in harmony. Unlike UK where such little population have made the Englishmen wary, given the current trend muslims will partition England eventually. I wonder what mountbatten would have thought about that.
@@killuazoldyck.4809 Dude, it is a fact that the Muslims wanted a separate state of their own. There may well be Muslims in India, an awful lot decided to move to Pakistan on partition, presumably because they felt safer in a Muslim majority country. It is human nature, and I am not criticising India or Hindus. I am from Ireland and we had our own partition to solve a similar problem. Sometimes it is better to live apart if you cannot agree to live together. My point still stands, Lord MB was not responsible for the partition, the Muslims insisted on a separate state. To try and force them into a single Indian state would have caused much bloodshed. As it turned out this happened anyway, but it was something he was trying to avoid.
@@wingnut71 Bro you should read about how much bloodshed happened and still happening due to partition. Partition gave the green light to religious fanatics to attack the other sect. And how is living separately benefitted either country? Pakistan has been suffering economic and security issues for so many years, India is also suffering a security issues. If an average muslim is more prosperous and safe in India then it defeats the purpose of partition, doesn't it? Just because someone insist for a separate state does not automatically mean you just give it to them. If that was the case why did IRA fight? Also why don't you give a separate state in Ireland for the muslims asking for sharia in Ireland, rather Ireland is showing increased islamophobia. Even in India Sikhs have been asking for separate state, yet current government is not giving in, because they know it will be a disaster which apparently DumbLord MB did not understand, only if he had given as much thought to it as he did for lil boys. Britain has a track record of creating conflicts by doing these, whether it be IND and pak, Israel or Ireland. Tell me one good example where a separate state actually worked.
