Ken Barlow was amazing impression, but Debras Pat from east Enders was beyond amazing and utterly inspired with every twitch and flick. I’ve watched this many times and now laugh when eastenders is on as I think Debras impression. Debra is amazingly beautiful. Both cute and foxy at the same time, a very rare combination. I love her.
The woman playing the make up artist in the Paul O'Grady sketch was a regular in Channel 4's Star Stories (she played Scary Spice, Naomi Campbell and loads of other characters). Fuckin' beautiful as well as a very talented actor*. PS, Debra Stephenson as the female co-host of the One Show in a tight blue mini-dress - hubba hubba!!!! *Rosalyn Wright.
This show is a good example of what can happen to a style of comedy when the characters are considered more important than the scripts. It's not a new problem. Impressions never need to be bang on, they just need to capture elements of the subjects, in order for an audience to recognise them, then heighten those elements. Then you can go in a number of directions, including putting the character in an incongruous 'fish out of water' situation, or pair them with another, unlikely character. The potential pitfalls, in terms of actual quality, are significant. Picking out a bunch of characters for stars and/or an ensemble to perform and then writing to fit almost always leads to sloppy material. And if the material is bad, the only saving grace, if there is one, is that the characterizations are _so_ good that they can make a terrible sketch slightly less terrible. With that in mind, when you strap yourself for a few mins just to see what it's like, there are a few red flags you don't want to see waved. The main one: characters announcing who they are at the top. That is poison. If a show is predicated on the fact that the stars will be doing impressions of real people, any sketch in which we have to be told who the character is is more than a fucking red flag, it's a death knell. Announcing a character automatically means that character shouldn't be in the show. That it _is_ in the show means they're struggling to fill. I saw Simon Greenall's name in the credits. It's quite sad, really. He's more talented than the stars combined.
It makes sense for some these tho. Her saying "I'm Nancy delalio" is kinda part of the joke. With the "I'm Fiona Bruce" one, she's playing a news reader, they always announce who they are
It's a good thing Culshaw does. You wouldn't know otherwise. Culshaw just sounds like Culshaw. Even his make up doesn't do it. I'd never have guessed Schofield for starters.
@@Anonymous-or4ru think he works much better on radio when you can't see him. his bojo in this lockdown series of dead ringers is pretty good, but maybe it's easier to think kinder of him when there's a bigger team helping getting laughs in and it's not just him and Stephenson
They weren't wrong about Schofield were they 🤣
Spot on .
Her Katie price was spot in to a tee even in 2023 lol
Debra Stephenson is so fucking fit.
"Welcome to the News At Ten. I'm Fiona Bruce, and you're not. But I won't rub it in."
Debra Stephenson's "Davina" is brilliant!
Absolutely brilliant! Both Culshaw and Stephenson are superb impressionists. Pity the BBC can't show more stuff of this quality.
I love that Debra Stephenson plays Hammond 😂
The Pat Butcher impression was absolutely spot on!

Debra is amazing actress!
Damn I used to love these shows
Top Gear 1910. What a brilliant idea.
The Davina impression is my fave, spot on
Ken Barlow and Pat Butcher were great. The makeup was outstanding.
The facial movement jerks are funny 🤣
Best Boris ever!
Debra Stephenson is superb as....Debra Stephenson ❤️
I had my back to the screen when the first impression came on, and I was 100% confident it was the real person!
debras impression of that silly posh tart off location etc is uncanny! plus shes fit
21st December 2011 - Best of Series 3 compilation
Quite fitting that Phillip Schofield is in the men's toilets presenting The Cube as he came out as gay today.
I know yeah lol
Maybe they knew....
How the fuck is that fitting? 😂 a MAN using a MENS toilet? What’s he supposed to do? Piss in his cereal?
I miss impression shows. They seem to have died out in the 10s.
Tomos Burton I
Do you remember Dead Ringers with Jon Culshaw??
The Imitation Game has brought them back and it's hilarious!
It's because you aren't allowed to take the piss out of anyone now
The teenies
He does a good version of London mayor Boris Johnson here.
Michael McIntyre
good impression of him very hyperactive
Seein Debra Stephenson as Alex Jones , Kirstie Allsopp an Fiona Bruce turned me on big stile , mmmwah
Alan Carr was awesome.
Debra Stephenson is hot
The ken is actually very clever
The Pat Butcher one, though 😂.
Gordon brown sounds more like a Scottish tom baker
Love the HBC and Burton sketch!
Even if Debra Stephenson was done up as Pat Butcher, I would faint at her feet....
🤣🤣🤣 I have the box set fortunately

Absolute genius these two
This woman impersonator is hottttt
Boris, and Davina. Unbelievable.
davina one was hilarious piss take out of long lost family love that show was only up stairs haha

Jon as Gordon Brown looks much more like Robert De Niro

Bring debra back to Corrie
"It's the work of devils" 🤣🤣
"I feel like I want to kiss you all over"
"Don't be daft, that could take weeks"

Lol
Nick Robinson and that was me done!! 😂😂😂😂
Boris is so close
Excellent ! :-)
good impressions, weak material
omg that top gear one haha
More episodes please!!
His Chris Evans voice is way off - not even close. His Alan Carr and Bojo are perfect.
I hate when impressionists announce who they are...noooooo
That's when you know it's gonna be a shit impression

@@Anonymous-or4ru Well, you've certainly got the right name.
that first bloke was welsey,off 2 pints of lager
Lmao! Nice one for the post :D
My God her teeth are incredible ❤️
Her everything lol
Is that Theo Pa.... Theo Pfuff... Theo the dragon who's last name I can't pronounce?
Lol in the toilets!
Michael Macintyre lol
Ken and Pat that's so wrong.
Am I the only one who thinks he sounds like the cookie monster when he's doing michael mcintyre?
How should I know?
he does it brilliantly tho
Yes so it's perfect :)
Haha from Windsor to Slough ! It only takes 10 mins to get from Slough to Windsor.
His Chris Evans is so poor
People say this bloke Jim Meskimen is the best, but he has nothing on Jon Nothing.
"Produced with CyberLink PowerDirector 12" i don't think it was mate
I Meant The Quality
"Quality"
2:30
his impressions are ridiculous you just know immediately, hers are a little hit and miss sometimes tbh
Ridiculous? Isn't that sort of the point? I think its called humour. I don't think the object is to produce a scientifically accurate re-enactment...
well no its meant to be funny, all I'm saying is I think his are funnier because they are more realistic whereas for me hers aren't so much
I guess it's funny if you know who they're making fun of ?
rc5chi What country are you from?
where you been living? presenters,singers,politics
,comedians and other famous people from uk

His Alan Carr is perfect, but his Philip Scofield is shit. Win some, lose some.
6:55 - where's the Isle of Lewis???
Island off the north western scottish coast.
Thig ar Latha 96 I know; I live there! I meant why's it not on the friggin map?
ScottieGirl20 aw right haha. I dont know? Maybe because its an island and is kinda far out compared with other scottish islands.
Thig ar Latha 96 I hate it when TV productions like this one leave our home island out deliberately; it drives us a bit crazy!
ScottieGirl20 Next to Debenhams'
Piss poor, culshaw can only do frank bruno. Everything else is a camp himself.
@@MightyGimp give it a rest you miserable twat.
Oh meow .Your jealousy is dripping off your chin onto my screen .Stop whinging pedant !
They really need to employ better writers. This stuff is dire.
Stop moaning.
Extremely poor scripts trudged through by extremely talented comics
Schofield was a poor impression, nothing like him.
Just not funny none of it
You are drip.
Mostly a bit crap
Great impressions, dreadful scripts 🙄🙄
davina one was hilarious piss take out of long lost family love that show was only up stairs haha
