@@camronconners878 As an American trying to figure out if that's an idiom since it's not capitalized as if it were a bar or something, I imagined "have the keys to go to" as someone spinning around ferociously, throwing their keys into the air, spinning a bit more to make sure that they don't know where anything is, and then crawling around on the ground trying to "go to their keys" while their friends drink, laugh, and point until it's their turn. The fastest person wins a free pint and the slowest person wins a free, safe ride home. So is it a bar or something?
Sitting in a St Andrews restaurant around fifteen years ago, having escaped the North Sea's attempt to move a mile inland we were amazed to see two students enter, dressed head to toe in tweed. They looked like they'd escaped from a Sherlock Holmes movie complete with plus fours, capes, deerstalker hats and curved pipes in their mouths. When told there were no tables available they simply turned round and set off out into the mini monsoon. It must have taken them a week to dry everything out when the got back to their accommodation!
A memorable moment and a great story. Thanks for sharing it. I just hope the students had a good bottle of Glenfiddich waiting at their lodging…to warm their hearts and souls! Cheers…JT
I was there when they filmed that bit from Chariots of Fire, there was a big group of students hanging around behind the camera line trying to spot anyone famous. Then we got too cold and went to the pub. Exciting times.

The essence of stand-up comedy is just a person with a microphone, creating a full night of entertainment with just talking. I've seen a few masters of the craft over the decades, including most recently Hannah Gadsby, who made commanding the attention of a thousand people seem absolutely effortless. But stand-up gets really lazy, not just for the comedians, but for the audience too. Audiences often don't like that awkward moment while the comedian sets up a specific scene like this just to make such specific jokes. So comedians rarely go into such obscure territory. It kind of reminds me of old fifties comedians who take a moment to announce the premise of the joke: "ladies and gentlemen, this is Feeding Spaghetti To an Elephant," or something like that. Rowen Atkinson was able to do one-man sketches like this, where he created a whole scenario by himself, but his scenarios were chosen to be very broad and accessible. What's impressive about Morton is that she doesn't care how few people get it, because those who do enjoy it all the more. Personally, I've never gotten further into Scotland than Edinburgh, and have no idea what any of these jokes refer to. But after watching, I feel like I've gotten an little education AND some great laughs, while also enjoying the primary point, a really well-done Scottish accent.
@@rottensquid Really good point about the essence of stand-up. I guess the thing is, with TH-cam, what you don't have is the energy between the comic and the crowd, so just SITTING in front of a white wall is kinda daring.... Very against the grain of TH-cam. Respect from me for sure....
Scotland is about the only place in the world where I'd pay to take the tour. I've done a few there over the years and the guides have all had pretty much this tone. It helps that my grandparents were from Glasgow and I could have had similar commentary without leaving home.
I hope you had a chance to get to know your grandparents 😁 if they came from Glasgow im sure they were a pair of characters! …Hopefully they weren’t Celtic fans though 😷
You touched on what was wrong with St. Andrews. I watched a couple of other videos about that, but none spoke about the elephant in the room. Back in the 80s, Thatcher cut back on student grants, so universities had to fill empty seats with overseas-fee-paying students. In those days, there were 100-200 American students ("Yanks") in St A, a little over 50% English students, and a little under 50% Scottish students. Today, there are almost 1600 American students. The number of English students is about the same as before, and the number of Scottish students is way down, displaced by the American students. You could say that St A is no longer a Scottish university, and is certainly not what I remember. Most of my friends at the time were Scottish, mainly because the English students would not talk to the Scottish students, nor the American students.
sorry but what youre saying isnt even unique to St Andrews. welcome to the privatization of all universities - this has been happening at hundreds if not thousands of universities. And it's not just overseas students either, postgraduate degrees are huge cash cows for unis as well hence huge uptakes there too. Also your info on 'displacing' Scottish students is wrong. Scottish unis are limited in the offers they can make to Scottish students - they're not limited in offers for students from the 'rest of UK' or international students - ergo why they're diluted by large numbers of both. Corporatization of the university is the issue - not international students. Please don't pedal this misinformation that sows division.
Is it/was it all down to £?Does the Uni get more money per head for overseas students,or is it that the English and Scottish students are less keen on learning,and more keen on drinking in the local spoons?
@@johngellard1187 it's everything to do with money. UK universities are measured by research output (look up research excellence framework) and the easiest way to get more research staff on payroll is increasing quotas of international and postgraduate students. This comes of course at the detriment of the learning and living experience for students, since most universities admit more students than they have the infrastructure for. So long as universities are yielding good research, this latter point is mostly insignificant.
@@bencollins2259 Ben,sorry I dont understand.I see students and lecturers."Research" staff?Lecturers teach subjects students learn.What are the research subjects,and why are overseas students favoured?

Nice, haha. Actually though my guide in St Andy’s was an upbeat 2nd year who was really kind and welcoming. I loved studying there, though I only stayed one term. Yes, as an American, and no I didn’t wear tweed but of course I did the beach run and my friend filmed it and edited in the Vangelis music. Would have been a waste of a trip, otherwise!
Sounds wonderful. Send me an application. I just hope the University has privileges for its students at the venerated golf course. As they supposedly say, “If there’s nae wind and nae rain, there’s nae golf.” 😊

Craig, if you put in a bit of effort you might stop being fired and having to look for new tour guide jobs.

she really sold it to me. I'm cancelling my Oxford place and going to St Andrews
You should! It’s so much more laid back and #1 above Oxford now. 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I did a study abroad at the University of St. Andrew for a semester. This was how my tour went.
So many funny lines, so little time to breathe while laughing! 😳
Ingenious the poker face the stance everything about this woman makes me laugh!
"The who's who of who's that? " That's goddamn funny right there.
God Bless Scotland & God bless the Scottish.
"A veritable Who's Who ... of Who's That?"
Craig is the king of making me chuckle quietly to myself.
Nice, haha. Actually though my guide in St Andy’s was an upbeat 2nd year who was really kind and welcoming. I loved studying there, though I only stayed one term. Yes, as an American, and no I didn’t wear tweed but of course I did the beach run and my friend filmed it and edited in the Vangelis music. Would have been a waste of a trip, otherwise!
It’s nearly 30 years since I graduated. Good to hear nothing changes.
lol! I'm an American, that was hilarious! You're funny, Eleanor :)
Never been more glad to go to Glasgow. Fuckin brilliant work on this.
Sounds wonderful. Send me an application. I just hope the University has privileges for its students at the venerated golf course. As they supposedly say, “If there’s nae wind and nae rain, there’s nae golf.” 😊
I will marry this girl TODAY.

Wait - she's got a whole channel!!?
Oh, I'm in!!
