    If you watch a full show, you'll really appreciate how he interacts with the audience, a few years ago many companies transferred their call centres to India because of the cheaper labour costs, the phone prefix was 118, hence, 118,dia! I enjoy your reactions, you seem both genuine and nice.

    The Bear from Peru joke is a reference to "paddington Bear" which is a children's story about an orphaned bear from Peru who is left at paddington station in London, hence the name. ✌️♥️🇬🇧

  • @AndyNightingale
    @AndyNightingale ปีที่แล้ว +10

    A very British reference was about the bear from Peru, given his documents; a shabby old suitcase; a shabby old coat; and a sign saying "please look after this bear".
    He is Paddington Bear, a very famous British story (a book) about a bear who arrives in London; and his adventures.
    They recently made two movies called "Paddington". Great fun.
    And his favourite food is marmalade sandwiches.

    Hi guys, cool channel. The joke he made about India calling it 118dia is because the UK outsourced its telephone support/helplines to India. Whenever you get in touch with a company's help and support line you were always put through to a call center in India. Not so much these days, but it was that way for a while. You would call 118, hence 118dia. And the joke about the bear was Paddington Bear. 🐻 You have a new subscriber. 👍🍻

    I'm from Australia, but I know that the first joke about India was referring to the fact that so many call centres are based there. In England, I think a lot of the call centres are based around Newcastle where the Geordies live. He was saying that they're asking for too much money, so they're losing out on the work to India.

    One of the funniest things watching The Pub Landlord do these live bits is, as he's doing a character who is a nationalistic, misogynistic little Englander is that there are certain people in the audience who don't realise what the joke is and will clap at some of the racist bits (esp. about Ireland, France, Germany) without realising the joke is about them, the type of people they are...
    India/118dia is a joke about how a lot of call centres for multinationals are based in the sub continent (when the phone lines first opened in the UK a lot of them started with 118) . The Geordies asking for too much money is that in the UK this work used to be done by working class people from Newcastle (geordies) and graduates in Scotland (where they could be paid less than in the South of England) whereas now a lot of it is done by people with multiple degress in India.
    The Peru bear bit is about Paddington Bear who is supposed to be from deepest darkest Peru.

    118-ia = India because of all the call centres. 118 118 used to be a big call centre you would ring to get someone’s telephone number (back before modern tech) and has become a joke synonym for call centres in general. He says “the Geordies asked for too much money”. So Geordies are people in Newcastle. If a call centre is based in UK, it’s normally in Newcastle (because the accent is seen as friendly). However, most call centres that serve the UK moved over to India because it was cheaper. These days, however, many have moved back to the UK for a bunch of reasons.
