I remember watching this and the Bomb Tech saying it was Vista, Moss saying "we're going to die", never a truer on point timed joke for the nerd community
I always assumed it was based on Indian IT support, since that is so common when ringing from the UK and it can be so difficult to understand them, but that Graham thought it would be considered racist if he made the guy Indian.
Toast of London starring Matt Berry Written by Matt and Arthur Matthews the other half of Father Ted, Its Hilarious chap's😅 Greetings and Felicitations 😊 Great Content! And Toast of Tinsel Town😂😂😂😂
Vista was 15 - 17 years ago. Spencer and Daniel are probably too young for this joke. Much of the computer jokes are lampooning computerisms of the time.
With this ending worth looking at garth merenghis dark place or toast of London. Matt Berry is in both, Richard ayoade is in garth. Only time I ran up as escalator was in the louvre in Paris.
This was an ultra mega win for Jen. Roy didn't just say the dreaded phrase, he shouted it very loudly to a street full of people and work colleagues - there should have been a bonus clause attached to that bet..
I've worked in IT for decades: yes, it's true. technically people just don't know the word "browser". They know chrome, IE or firefox, but not the word "browser".
I always feel this episode is much earlier in the series when I remember it. Like season three, but it's one of my favourites. 😂 (I say that about all of them)
Me too! I’ve been waiting since the end of series 1 for this one thinking it was gonna be soon Didn’t want to Google what episode and spoil the surprise when it was uploaded 😅
YOU GOTTA SEE MATT BERRY AND OTHER FUNNY ACTORS IN "WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS" CRAZY VAMPIRES TRYING TO NAVIGATE IN WORLD, LIVING IN STANTON ISLAND!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍🤓😆😄😅😂🤓😆😄😅😂🤓😆😄😅😂❤❤
Really appreciate the effort & enthusiasm you put into every video! I think many of the cultural/societal differences between the UK/USA stem from an unwillingness to ask questions like you guys do! There are a few brit comedy/sketch shows I would love to see your take on: Greg Evigan's when things get knocked over, spill or fall out of cupboards. Jack Dee: "Where's the F***ing tent" , or "Conspiracy theories" Peter Serafenowicz "Kitchen gun" Mitchell & Webb: "Numberwang" or "Are we the baddies?" Thanks!
Yeyyyy I literally just caught up with s4e4 (obviously like the 10th time I've watched it) but been enjoying the ride with you guys so far. Great episoe3
20:00 I can't believe Spencer can't pronounce Reynholm, when seeing it written down. How many times has that name been said in the series? (Edited to spell "Spencer" correctly lol)
I'm surprised you didn't seem very amused by 'bad boy" Moss at the beginning though it's hard to tell on a small phone screen. I've noticed before that sometimes you don't seem to realise there's a joke in a comedy. Not that you just don't think it's funny but don't realise at all. I suppose different cultural references can go over ones head and it might be the same for me if I reacted to American comedy.
Running up a down escalator is tiring. Then there's the lost distance caused by people using the escalator properly who should always be treated with respect. It is fun if you are fit enough, or drunk enough.

I don't understand it either but I find it funny, personally I would give that response if they said 7
The unintelligible French IT guy is based on a real experience that Graham Linehan endured when he had a problem with his internet service.
I always assumed it was based on Indian IT support, since that is so common when ringing from the UK and it can be so difficult to understand them, but that Graham thought it would be considered racist if he made the guy Indian.
I thought he was Dutch
He does sound a bit French, I always thought the joke was not the accent, but the unintelligible speech pattern and a randomly shifting accent!
Vista operating system??
We're all going to die!!! 😂🤣
You forget that the IT crowd is from the early 2000s. The original iPod hadn’t even been invented never mind smart phones

How did they have no reaction to that Vista joke? It's one of the best jokes of the whole show

I thought it was way newer so I checked
Roy and Moss sticking it to the man. "Were bunking off!"
I bunked off school once and spent the whole day hid under my bed in case my dad caught me 😂 well successful
@@thatsthat2612 That's great! It's so Moss! :)
🤣@@MelanieMaguire

@@cohenparsons947 Quite right. Spelling and grammatical errors are my way of sticking to the man.

In the UK, Hookah is called Shisha!!

Same I could of swore it was in season 1 wtf
"Hookah was a short fad"
Like Arabic people haven't been smoking hookah for hundreds of years...
Guys you still have black books yet
Black books is excellent

Please start watching community after it crowd 🙏🏻❤️
Linehan is pronounced= Lin-eh-han, not 'Lynam'!
Just call him "Glinner".

i cant wait to see you guys watch league of gentlemen
they wont get it at all
and thats why it will be funny lol
@@ppppp789
@@ppppp789I agree, they aren't ready
I didn't get it when I first watched it. You have to give it time for the surreal genius to permeate your brain.
you can NEVER be ready for league of gentlemen, unless you are on drugs.
@@thatsthat2612
Fear of balloons is called globophobia. No idea what fear of globes is called.
It's called being a "flat earther".
Karherine Parkinson is brilliant. I've always had a crush on her too.
We still have a hookah bar in my city and the last time I went on vacation, there was one. So it hasn't entirely died out.
have you guys watched Graham Linehan's Black Books series? It's hysterical.
Yeyyyy I literally just caught up with s4e4 (obviously like the 10th time I've watched it) but been enjoying the ride with you guys so far.
Great episoe3
Ploppers!!!! Also, Roy has globophopbia (fear of balloons), same as me
A fear of balloons? That's the craziest bloody thing I've ever heard
After you finish the episodes, you should react to the outtakes.
Will be a sad day when you guys finish the Series 5 extended episode send off. You've been brilliant to watch, and it's great how you get it.
A typical day in Whitgift shopping, Croydon lol
I thought it was Whitgift but I never checked if it actually was. Man that place used to be so good
Was it Whitgift? I live just a few miles from there and worked in Croydon for a while, years ago. Croydon is so depressing though.
@@hedgehog1965ukyes. It’s good for train connections and Zipcar though.
@@DanielRobertspianoI'd never heard of Zipcar, I thought you meant the tram, but I just Googled it.
The like to view ratio for these IT crowd vids is a joke
I swear you two must live in the middle of nowhere
My absolute favourite episode. Perfect setup!
greta show, great reaction as always!!

Proud to say at 68 yrs old, I was popped for truancy and curfew at 14!!!! DIDN'T CHANGE A THING!!🤓

When I was 8, I witnessed a child get his toes caught in escalator teeth...it was HORRIBLE!😵😵
Same with me...I skipped a lot of high school. "Wagging it" it's called in Manchester.

Can't believe this is nearly over
