Hey! I'm Alanna - a thirty-something documenting my life as a Canadian living in England.
I share the ups and downs of an expat living abroad and what it's really like living in the UK. It's not always easy, but there's been so many wonderful experiences, too. I post a TH-cam video every Tuesday plus an additional video every Saturday on Patreon + YT Memberships. I also livestream every Wednesday and Sunday at 5:30pm GMT/BST on Twitch.
Alanna x
Jimmy Carr’s no fail pick-up line: ‘does this rag smell like chloroform to you?’
Ross Noble, not one for short clips but well worth it if you can follow his tenuous "thread"!
Feankie Boyle "Michael Jacksons children's hospital" is the benchmark x
Bill Bailey's "In Britain we process happiness... differently" skit. You'll love it.
Dave Allen was a fantastic comedian with the perfect sense of timing. His "Telling your child how to tell time", or his "aeroplanes", or his religious jokes compilations are epic.
Classic
was just about to type Dave Allen when I saw your post!
Heck, yes.
Dave Allen was a master.
Sean locks best bits from countdown are brilliant. He was one of a kind, so funny
His rectum of the year bit was amazing on cats does countdown.
@@AxR558plus his skit for 'the tiger who came for a pint', a take on the children's book 'the tiger who came to tea' 😂
The most shocking thing in the video is that you can Google “Scottish Comedian” and Billy Connolly is not one of the six that appears, but Des fkn Clarke is 😂
Stewart Francis is another popular Canadian comedian who has worked a lot in the UK. I think he has given up doing standup now, but there are lots of recordings of his acts. He does snappy one-liner jokes.
one of the funniest Jimmy Carr game shows was "I literally just told you" the second episode of which the contestents were so bad at remembering things Jimmy nearly has a breakdown its really worth a watch (the premiss of the show is that apart from the starter rounds most of the questions are about anything that happens during the show as written by question writers on a panel.
Micky Flanagan 👌🏻
Jimmy occasionally throws in a joke that takes 1 or 2 minutes to set up, but it's usually the rapid fire one liners.
Joe Wilkinson's poem on '8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown' gets me everytime.
If you're wondering about other comedians then for sure I can suggest Lee Evans. It's impossible to choose any absolute favourites, but check out "Talking About The Wife | Lee Evans", and "Flying Economy Is A Grueling Experience | Lee Evans".
Lee Evans is not funny anyway
@@bonvoyage5377 To you he may not be, it isn't compulsory to like the same things.
Billy Connolly wildebeest sketch. a must watch.
If you're after a classic Scottish comedian then Billy Connolly is your man. Possibly the greatest UK comedian ever.
Dave Allen is another great one.
@@thesnep4757 Albeit Irish, not Scottish.... She was talking specifically about Scottish comedians.
@@thesnep4757Kevin bridges
best ever
Billy Connolly is the one I grew up with and still the best, but there are so many good ones these days.
I'm with you on James Acaster - his Repertoire set is my favourite of all time! After that, for just stand-up; Ricky Gervais, Kevin Bridges, Frankie Boyle, Dara O'Briain (very underrated - highly recommend) and Peter Kay. For American comedians, I'd have to say George Carlin and Dave Chappelle 😄
@easterdeer A friend went to see Dara in concert and he was going along the front row talking to people and he got to one guy
"And what do you do sir?"
"Food technologist",
"Been involved in anything interesting ?"
"I developed the Magnum".
"Okay the rest of you can just go home now".
My favourite British comedian is probably Lee Evans. So brilliant, active, so physical, so talented, great singer. Real shame he retired but fair play for being happy with life with his family
Black Adder on the BBC staring Rowan Atkinson, Tony Robinson, the guy who playsl House... Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry! There is 4 seasons and a few specials
Rowan Atkinson Live Naughty School Register
I went to see Jimmy Carr a month ago and it was one of the best stand up shows I've been to. I've run comedy clubs in the past so I've seen a lot of comedians! Yes he can be close to the bone but they are JOKES, but that's made obvious and they always come from a good place.
Nobody walked out of this show. And I've never seen anybody better than him when talking with the audience - he actually ENCOURAGED heckles and I've barely seen anyone respond with better off the cuff one liners than him. Seriously, go and see him
Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. Can't beat the classics 😁
you should watch his Cumbacks against hecklers , it's a brave person to heckle Jimmy
I enjoy Sarah Millican's story telling comedy. She's more light hearted and makes me smile when I'm sick or down.
We've known Jimmy Carr so long, he wasn't even paying tax 🤣
Jethro
He was just how much the government wanted
Try watching Jethro he was cornish
A tv series, called Bottom - ultra violence, its a compilation
As an Aussie I get British humour more than other countries humour, we have a similar style here, maybe a little rougher. I've never been offended by comedy, not even the terribly "inappropriate". As for people walking out, I've seen a few clips, maybe 1-2 actually left and Jimmy acknowledged them doing so.
Yanks just don't get sarcasm and irony
I haven't watched your videos in years. Good to see you doing well
His best material is when he does podcasts promoting his book or his stand-ups when he talks about his life and life in general.
Having been born and bred as a Londoner I love Micky Flanagan and as my Mum was Scottish I also love Kevin Bridges and can understand both. I then moved to Australia and luckily their sense of humour is very British.
Dave Allen (I had to watch re-runs as I was only a nipper when his original TV series were on). As a teenager I was introduced to the classics by Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor, so maybe I've been lucky generation-wise.
Growing up there were plenty of British comedians who were trying to emulate their sort of humour, but they were always unbroadcastable until they released their shows on VHS/DVD. Which ended up with a glut of them on the DVD shelves around Xmas time.
There's also Viz magazine which has been going around for 35+ years. All in all, far too many to choose from. Their Profanisaurus is a good book to acquire (no longer updated). I've bought and donated a few copies to friends of mine in Germany over the years :)
My throat hurts from laughing. Even though it's somewhat impolite, the context switches, surprises, twists and turns are so... unexpected, and funny.
I would recommend Miles Jupp for classic English humour and Kevin Bridges for Scotland. For Ireland you have to go back to the late, great Dave Allen and for Wales it's hard to choose between Rhod Gilbert and Milton Jones.
Loved this, British comedy is so rich and diverse. For me it's one of our best attributes - that deprecating humour, our ability to look at ourselves and make fun. So many classic British comendy series as well. Definately recommend an Audiance with Billy Connolly, 1985.
I've been to his shows three times and never seen anyone leave.
Even in the early years everyone knew what you were paying to see.
Five minutes of Jimmy Carr is enough for me. Frankie Boyle adds more to the same formula and takes it new places. Eddie Izzard was great in his prime, a Stewart Lee show is a whole comedic adventure, Sara Pascoe and James Acaster for their wit and charm, and Lucy Beaumont for sheer open-hearted daftness. Going back a bit French and Saunders, Dame Edna and the late great Victoria Wood.
roy chubby brown and bernard manning (You are not going to find his greatest materials on the internet).
Check out Jimmy talking about how he would publicly apologise for a career ending joke. Makes a good point. Best stand up however... Bill Hicks.
Monty Python " Life of Brian, often voted as the best comedic film ever. Full of cultural references
Jack Dee, very deadpan, very observational, very funny. Saw him on my 30th birthday in York... 😂😂😂
Gary Delaney operates in a similar vein,the subversion of expectations no matter how controversial the subject. For pathos,Johnny Vegas reciting a poem written for John Cooper Clark’s,(notable British punk poet) judgement during an episode of 8 out of 10 cats does countdown. Johnny,whose stage persona was an aggressive drunkard,took the brief seriously and can up with real heartfelt poetry. Amazing.
Gary Delaney Ruthless one liners are incredible
Billy Connolly, incontinence pants story, is a classic bit of Scottish comedy
in the 90s in the Montreal comedy festival comedy like this was quite common (tbh comedy like this was common everywhere in the 90s)
Love Jimmy Carr, also Bill Bailey and Jason Manford never fail to make me laugh
It won’t get taken down, there’s dozens of reactions to this so don’t worry
I've been fortunate enough to watch a few stand-ups live, and my favourite was Rhod Gilbert by an absolute country mile. His "Book of John" show was hilarious but also heartbreaking, touching and poignant.
I work at a comedy venue and we've had Jimmy Carr several times. I can tell you that not that many people walk out. Tickets are expensive and if you're going to pay a lot of money for something, then you will almost certainly know what you're going to get. Maybe 4 people in a thousand will walk out, but that's pretty much the same as with many other comedians. And, yes, pretty much all his set is the same type of material!
Hi from England. You should check out Milton Jones.
Definitely. He's a master of one liners.
You didn't even get one of his most offensive ones: “If only Africa had more mosquito nets, then every year we could save millions of mosquitoes from dying needlessly of AIDS”.
My favourite Jimmy Carr joke was actually on 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. Talking to Suzie Dent, who is a learned etymoligist, respected and respectable, "So, Suzie, what have you been looking into this week? Other than gloryholes?"
Helped by the way it made Joe Wilkinson insensible for a good couple of minutes.
According to Rachel Riley, away from the camera, Suzie Dent is quite a different person. Much more fun and wild than her screen persona.
Going to a Jimmy Carr gig & then getting offended is like going to a Black Sabbath gig & walking out because you don't like rock music.
Try Frankie Boyle "Audience Annihilation". It's split into 2 parts but I have no idea why. It's not so long that you can't play both together.
Carr is quite ruthless with hecklers. Maybe try one of those?
One for the Patreon: Canadian reacts to Manning at the Embassy Club.
If you think these jokes are extreme and require a reaction video, watch Jimmy Carr's holocaust jokes, which he overtly states at his gigs are experiments to see how far a performer and audience can jointly go. Then definitely do Frankie Boyle next. Some of his jokes are pretty harsh. Or the Australian, Jim Jeffries, who occasionally pushes it even harder.
Spike Millican. Genius that never fails. Very British. Looking at him you can see his mind enjoying himself.
For me Sarah Millican is a must, one of my favourite comedians
Ahh I love her!
She used to be great, observational stuff and storytelling, now she's just fanny jokes and vulgarity!
I think Jimmy Carr's a genius. My friend and his wife walked out of one of his concerts. It's horses for courses...
11:57 Jimmy Carr in jest
1) "They say each child with Down's Syndrome is different - so how come they all look the same?"
2) doing a gig in Dublin:
"I believe in a united Ireland" audience *hurrah*
"I believe in Ireland for the Irish" audience *hurrah*
"Under British rule" audience ----------
Dara O’Brien, Ed burns and Bill Bailey are all worth a watch
If you're looking for more wholesome comedy, Tim Vine is a master of puns and very silly. For more comedy of this type, Frankie Boyle rinsing his audience is pretty brutal. And, for well crafted wit and a fairly unique take on life, Al Murray (in his character of The Pub Landlord) is a fun journey.
Slough's greatest export - just don't send him back to us.
They are so tame for Jimmy
Since you asked: The Two Ronnies for their wordplay and invention, Dylan Moran for his turn of phrase, Chris Rock for his consistency, Tim Minchin and middle period Bo Burnham for the sheer entertainment, and Bill Bailey's Part Troll is my favourite set.
I love Jimmy Carr. Just his face as he says the jokes - and how straight he keeps it 😂😂😂
Al Murray, "Global finance", it's the funniest thing I've ever seen and it has so many cultural references, not just British one's.
Stewart Lee-Braveheart stand-up in Scotland. If you want to see people walking out and sitting looking angry.That's the one to react to.
You should watch Ricky Gervais at the Oscars.
Golden Globes.
Jimmy is the Jesus Christ of comedy. They both got hammered with tacks.
Jimmy makes it very clear these are jokes, and he is also interested in finding out exactly how far the audience will go, telling them that’s what he is going to do and it’s set up in a way that he isn’t challenging the audience, but everyone who goes understands this is going to happen. He wrote a great book about comedy btw, which isn’t funny, but does have a joke on the bottom of each page
Jimmy Car vs hecklers is hilarious
I have seen him do a set at the Montreal comedy festival and it was really toned down for the Canadian audience
Yes, Jimmy Carr's shows are definitely the same type of thing one after another - that's why I prefer just 5-15 minutes of Jimmy Carr at a time
Frank Skinner (UK 90s comedian) once was approached after a show by a frumpy-looking lady, and she angrily informed him that his act was verging on the offensive. He replied: "Darling, there's only one virgin on the offensive in THIS room".
Harry Hill and his TV Burps.
Try Scottish sitcom 'Still Game'. Actor Greg Hemphill (Victor Mcdade) was born in Scotland but moved to Canada when he was young and grew up there.
✌️🤟🤘
I always think Jimmy Carr has an uncanny resemblance to Slappy from Goosebumps!
Now there's an idea Alanna, how about taking your mum to a Jimmy Carr gig when she comes over this Christmas. 🤣🤣🤣
😂
I second that
Seen Jimmy several times live, he’s brilliant. Had a chance to meet him after the shows too and he’s actually a lovely bloke.
Thanks for making me chuckle 😂😂😂
Billy connolly "old Lady on a bus", is a classic! (Not to be confused with "dwarf on the bus".)
I've seen Jimmy live, and he was hilarious. At the meet n greet after the show, he was very nice and humble. It's just a persona on stage.
I think my favourite most memorable comedy watch has to be Lee Evans XL Tour. I watched that DVD so many times haha! He's so funny and just gets absolutely drenched in his own sweat XD
Lee Evans miming Bohemian Rhapsody for the French.
My favourite Jimmy Carr video is called “Improvised Comedy”, I remember crying with laughter the first time I saw it.
an audience with bill connolly is always a classic and so funny
My real intro to uk comedy was ray peacock and young ed gamble interviewing Edinburgh comedy comedians. Was called the peacock and gamble show
As soon as I saw the video title, I thought, "Yep, this is gonna be a spicy one." 😂
Jason Rouse is Canadian, and he’s pretty brutal lol
As you rightly say, humour is specific to the individual, Morecambe and Wise will always be up there. Richard Osman said it best. If you are on TV, you have gone to their house, behave but if you are doing a show, they have come to you and the rules are relaxed (well paraphrasing anyway) A good example would be Jim Davidson. on TV, say Big Break, he was very family orientated but I watched a video of his live show, well about 5-10 mins and switched off.
Some Funny British TV shows that I recommend reacting to, include Phoenix nights, Harry and Paul, Little Britain and Horrible Histories. That last one was ordinally an educational sketch show aimed at kids, but was widely watch by adults, because of how funny it was. Horrible Histories has won many awards for best comedy, which is insane considering it was competing with well know shows and was restricted by being historically accurate and needing to be child friendly.
That was extremely offensive, Well done.😁😁
You should try Jerry Sadowitz....
Fankie Boyle roasting crowds.
My favourite is franky Boyle or Roy chubby brown
Most of my Brit comedian familiarity comes from Catsdown and Taskmaster. I also didn't realize 8OO10C was its own show at first.
I saw Jimmy in Tunbridge Wells this year . I absolutely love him !
There's two Steve Hughes sets from Live at the Apollo that are amazing. Definitely worth checking out.
Micky Flanagan is one of the best UK comedians of all time. I don't think many people could exclude him from their top 5 list. 😊
I love jimmy Carr, its my sense of humour exactly. Its an artform but sadly I can only see its dying out. I would be in tears watching this 🤣
russell howard is my fav comedian love how he takes the piss out of his family
The late, great Sean Lock.
Kevin Bridges.
Me - Mickey Flanagan. Love that cockney wiseguy. But I have to agree with Jimmy - he is brutal, but offence is in the ear of the listener.
Jimmy Carr is very much about one-liners which usually isn't my thing. I prefer the story-telling format, generally.
Joe Wilkinson cracks me up, Joe Lycett, Tim Key, Katherine Ryan... usual suspects really.
A lot of people hate him, but I also think Jack Whitehall is a very funny man.
And just as a general thing; Taskmaster is my favourite show and I basically love 95% of the contestants.
