1:23:05 Willy Wonka mentions snozzwangers and whangdoodles. The same names the centipede was accused of being by the police in "James and the giant peach". Roald Dahl shared book universe confirmed???
2:41:09 What if this happened?: Mr. Teavee: Here, give him to me. (Takes Mike Teavee and puts him in his coat pocket and stuffs and handkerchief on top) Charlie Bucket: (To Mr. Teavee) Excuse me, but I don't think he could breath in your pocket.
It’s really depends on the Quality of the Audio including the Quality of the the Cassette Tape too. These days there’ Editiing and mixing Tools to Enanced the Quality of Audio Recordings yeah even for Audio Cassettes Tapes to. Never the less this is still a great Audio Book Nattation though and i also had this when i was a Kid. The Mongky Grainder is a fantastic Channel with lots of great Audio Books on it that will entertain many people no matter what there ages is.
An interesting observation (not originally mine) on the moral lesson or code in this book. At 54:17 Charlie is actually rewarded (by fate/Dahl) for his only act of selfish decadence. Perhaps this teaches that however much you want to help others, you do sometimes have to look after yourself... or am I making excuses for a blunder?
Kerry Shale Also Played The Voice Of Chuck From The 1994 ITV Studios Children's Animated Cartoon Television Series Budgie The Little Helicopter The Original Series. Thanks Mate. X
I used to have this on cassette as a child and I loved Kerry Shale’s voice, it’s so cool, and I think it really works well on this story, and I like his voice just as much as David Tennant’s voice on audiobooks in this day and age, and I love how he does his different voices on all the characters and he did it all very well. It’s a shame that they never were reissued on CD or whatever nowadays, but I really did love this tape back in the day.
I checked who Kerry Shale is, and to my surprise, it’s the same guy who voices Gordon, Henry, James and Sir Topham Hatt in the CGI series. I thought he sounded familiar when he was doing Grandpa Joe’s voice in this audiobook.
A new subscriber. This channel is a treasure. Brings me back to my childhood devouring books both paper and via audio cassette. It has continued into adulthood. I love revisiting classics from my youth. Much appreciated!
I utterly adore this version of the story. I had this audiobook as a child and certain aspects of Kerry Shale's performance is burned into my memory. I love his Austrian Willy Wonka. Crazy that he reads the prose in an English accent. I really also love Kerry Shale's readings of Bill Bryson books.
Exceptionally well read, very enjoyable and more entertaining than both film attempts of Roald Dahl's Story. The 1971 film musical adaptation still remains very magical and heartwarming, especially Charlie Bucket's loyalty & good natured deed.
Gordon, you have made me smile! Everything on TH-cam is free to listen/watch unless specified so just press play and enjoy this excellent presentation of the Dahl classic.
um why did the narrator make grandpa joe sound like mr popo from dragonball z abridged? a bunch of the voices are really weird willy wonka is german but augustus gloop is british violet sounds like shane dawson and Mr salt has a new york accent that makes him sound like a bad donald trumpp impression I'm so confused
This made me laugh! When Grandpa Joe says early on in the book, "What's wrong with me?" I said, "I think you're drunk." I reckon the other grandparents sound borderline insane. Still a fun listen though. I don't suppose there was much logic in the choice of voices, after all few little children would think about it much. Interestingly I had the sequel on cassette when I was little, also read by Shale, but not this book. I had a different version, an abridgement but actually read by Roald Dahl. I think it was this, having two books about the same characters voiced by different readers, that introduced me to the idea that characters could be interpreted differently... and of course to the idea of sequels.
@@ninjabunnywholivesinsideaw8216 Maybe we can, but his Wonka was definitely his own character. Gene Wilder was more closer to the story in terms of Wonka's personality. Depp is more of a badshit psychotic man-child as supposed to the perky fatherly wizard character Gene Wilder went for.
@Random Guy Gene's portrayal of Willy Wonka is the only thing that was a bit closer to the book than Johnny Depp's. But even Roald Dhal didn't like Gene Wilder's performance as Willy Wonka aside from his psychotic scene during the boat ride through the nightmare tunnel thing. I think Roald Dhal really would have preferred Depp's portrayal, along with the rest of the movie. Don't get me wrong, Gene Wilder was a good actor and I miss him, but it would be interesting to hear Johnny Depp read the book in his Willy Wonka voice.

2:06:43 Instantly The Voice Of Mr Willy Wonka Echoed Though The Chamber. X
Why does Veruca Salt sound like a Jersey Shore wife?

Thanks for this audio book
Is this the same Kerry Shale who voiced Gordon, Henry, James, Devious Diesel, and other _Thomas the Tank Engine_ characters?
I have only seen the old Thomas shows with Ringo Starr, but apparently yes Kerry Shale does voices on both the US and UK Thomas and Friends shows :)
@@TheMonkeyGrinder He was also a great Joker on BBC Radio's version of Batman Knightfall

Narrator: Kerry Shale
I LOVE the different voices of the kids.
I completely lost it when I heard the voice of Mike Teavee.
😂
Willy Wonka sounds like Dr. Nick from The Simpsons if you fed him a diet of Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans

omg! this was the one i had in childhood!

I remember this book and this is my favorite book.
Do we have to pay to listen to and enjoy this - or is it free?
It's free. At the very worst, an advert might occasionally appear depending on the original copyright holders' agreements with youtube. Enjoy!
It’s. On. TH-cam.
Gordon, you have made me smile! Everything on TH-cam is free to listen/watch unless specified so just press play and enjoy this excellent presentation of the Dahl classic.
I love chocolate 🍫

I'm so confused

@@dan4lau the audiobook of this that i had as a kid was the harper audio version read by Eric Idle.
@@hurricanefury439 Don't believe I've heard that one. Will have to look for it.
I would've loved an audiobook of this story read by Gene Wilder. That would've been awesome.
Unfortunately, we're far too late to ask for that. 😔😔😔
Maybe we can still get Johnny Depp to read the book.
@@ninjabunnywholivesinsideaw8216 Maybe we can, but his Wonka was definitely his own character. Gene Wilder was more closer to the story in terms of Wonka's personality. Depp is more of a badshit psychotic man-child as supposed to the perky fatherly wizard character Gene Wilder went for.

@@ninjabunnywholivesinsideaw8216 Oh it would be a fun experience. Maybe Johnny will someday, he has done his Wonka voice a lot since the trials.
@Random guy yes, that's true.
Is Wonka Indian or German in this version?
30:38 Mr. Salt sounds like Peter Griffin.
Barney Rubble
@@thefonzkiss “Barney! My Pebbles!”
Peter's way more nasal, and he has a hint of Boston to his speech. Mr. Salt seems a New Yorker.
he actually sounds like a brooklyn gangster than Peter Griffin to me
Why that accent? Never stated the guy is not British.
This is def 1989...
hi
Hi l love reading please can you help me about reading 🥺 I have a lots of problems with reading...?
Hola🏴
Ttttttttttooooooooooootttttttttttttttttt
I think the voice is weird.
Everything is great about this audio book , except the sound of Willy Wonka. It sounds very very annoying.
Can't lie, super disappointed with narrators voice of Willy Wonka. Did he really have to use the accent?
Agreed, why is he German?
i agree
he sounds like a sasha baron cohen character
E luv choclat🏴
