I find it amazing that after watching 4 series where they say the name Reynholm 50 times, that you still can't say it. Americans are so funny
Rain holm
King&Queen boomer still don't know moss & we're into episode 3,they think he called Marvin even though jen shouts moss it still doesn't register with the pair of them.
Say what?! Rain man,I'm an excellent driver.
@@andywrong3247 Why are you even commenting on other youtubers on this channel I am subscribed to both and as you may or may not know King and Queen Boomer have a very young baby and as any loving parent will tell you it is hard work with not much sleep so yeah they will be tired, so them being forgetfull about the characters names are more understandable, being a hater for youtubers who get a name wrong is quite lame
@rinoaheart6538 I don't care what you think its a free country is a lame excuse not remembering names just for having a baby,they are just so annoying stop starting pontificating about nothing.a 20 minute clip lasts double with them.send them my regards.
How can you not pronounce something constantly said throughout the show lol
Americans .
Spencer isn't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed
@@miladeskandari7but we luv him for it 😂
Reynholme’s name, like his office, is cluttered with superfluous furniture (y, h, L, e)
It’s a damp squid.
Heston Blumenthal is a celebrity chef in the UK famous for doing crazy things with food, hence the white wine (milk) and food shaped like a radio.
...And his restaurant is the Fat Duck (of which the 'Flappy Duck' is a p*ss take) in Bray, Berkshire. 😄
@@MarkmanOTWI thought it said Happy Duck but a bit smudged. Hard to tell with my little phone screen and dodgy eyes.
Guys the suit that Douglas made ..the joke was it was a copy of the suit that heather mills wore to her divorce proceedings with Paul McCartney
I didn't know that. 👍🏼
Wow talk about a reference nobody outside Britain would get x) Finally 13 years later I get it
it was a law suit
@@theotherside8258badum tish
You win a prize for that one, good sir
I’m surprised that case wasn’t thrown out of court because I always understood that legally speaking she didn’t have a leg to stand on!
A squib is an old term for firework. Saying something was like a damp squib is saying it failed to go off properly - was underwhelming in some way.
It's also the special effect device actors wear so it looks like they are getting shot in films.
i did think it was the gunpowder "packet" that went into old rifles before the bullet, or maybe cannons
@@miff227 Yes I think that was the origin - gunpowder - gets damp and it's a disappointment. I think squib has been used over the years for a number of small explosive devices, maybe?
I was well into my thirties when I found it I’d been saying it wrong all my life and the phrase isn’t, “a dump squid”
@@alpinenewtplaysgames4509 The device the actors use is a small firework. It's a small explosive usually wrapped in paper/cardboard so if it gets wet it no longer works efficiently.
'Wills mum' was also the woman in the episode that had the funeral in it, who Roy said to "Sorry for your loss, move on"
I always wondered if they meant to do that,because she's his mum/step mum and his wife.🤷♂️
Was that her? No way
@@thatsthat2612that was really her.
@@thatsthat2612
Yep. Shame she's so sexless, though😛
@@walesstarI think it might have been intended as a joke like either they’re the typical CEO wife or Douglas and Denholm have eerily similar taste in wives
Give a thought to Black Books by the same writers. It has a similar insanity about it. It also has its fair share of wacky characters.
Love that show
The milk thing is a joke about Heston Blumenthal, a chef who cooks really strange and weird meals. It's meant to be some sort of white wine. But to be honest, I'm surprised you were so confused about them drinking milk when they were just eating invisible desserts and chocolate radios. It's all a joke about his strange recipes
Did you mention to the dudes the knife she eat was fake in real life.white wine.heston once made edible phuke&dog shit sandwiches.
I hope you will react to “Garth Marenghi’s DARKPLACE” at some point very soon. It stars both Moss and Douglas and it is a parody of British 70s and 80s sci-fi/horror television.
Seen his stage show recently ❤❤🎉
She was also at the funeral as Denholm's wife in "The Golden Child" so though forgotten she played Douglas's mum or step mum strangely enough 😂😂😂
'Everyone has blind-spots'. That's the perfect reply to that kind of thing. It just defuses the whole situation. I still amaze myself with new ones. 🤣
It's not the final episode. it is one special episode from 2013
Did you not hear Douglas state that the milk was wine?
You won't get the Heston Blumenthal reference, but he is an experimental chef, who creates very eccentric dishes, things like snail porridge, Bacon ice-cream and a lot of the items on the table look like ordinary things found on a dining table but they turn out to be edible most famously the candles on the table that are lit can be eaten as a dessert.
So it wouldn't be outwith Heston's repertoire to make a wine that looks like milk.
His most famous restaurant is called the fat duck hence the flappy duck, the game you are thinking off is Flappy bird but this episode aired long before that was a thing.
This was the last regular season IT episode but it wasn't intended by the writer to be the last episode, but the cast started to become in demand for other things so it became increasingly difficult to get the main 4 together for recording. The special that you will react to next happened due to a rare chance that they were able to get all the cast together so Graham Linehan quickly wrote a special for the occasion.
It's been said before but get onto Black Books next, ace series.
And just so you know that was gemma chan playing female sulu in her second appearance. She was also in the countdown episode with a fellow Marvel Star Wong. Having said that, Roy is in the Marvel universe too, its all connected.
Its pronounced Rennum 😂😂
There's still the actual final episode to watch. The special from 3 years after 👍
"Why are they drinking milk?"
That's because the restaurant is meant to be one of those "avante-garde", rich-people-eating-weird-crap restaurants.
"Well, I actually knew Reilly, and yes, there are similarities." 😂😅
That line kills me every time 😂
@@thatsthat2612 What a great character. Graham Linehan has a healthy sense of the absurd. Genius.
"SING, YOU CANARY!!"
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I personally hate it when people say "I could care less" so you are saying you do care?
that’s not the last episode… the last episode is hilarious
"A lawyer who represents himself in court has a fool for a client".
Moss in the dock has to be one of the funniest sit-com scenes of all time. So good. Maybe ‘The Mighty Boosh’ next…?
YES PLEASE GOSH
They aren't going to get the boosh, there's no fucking way. I like these guys but they aren't ready for the mighty boosh
You think about watching Black Books next. It's also written by Father Ted and IT crowd writer
Matt Berry is hysterically funny "TOAST OF LONDON" AND "TOAST OF HOLLYWOOD" 👍👍👍👍👍
Guess you can always watch Black Books, complete the hattrick, definitely no drinking milk.
The outfit is a copy of Heather Mills's suit when she took Paul McCartney (the multimillionaire) to court.
It's the hysterical laughter at the suit for me. Has me everytime 🤣 some of the best trial prep I have ever seen
OBJECTION YOUR HONOUR!...
There's a really good bit coming up 😂🤣
I just hope you guys are lining up the series "Black Books" once you finish this. Another Graham Lineham classic (co-created by Dylan Moran).
Personally I'd rather see them take a break from the Graham Lineham stuff for a bit, and maybe react to some of Ricky Gervais/Stephen Merchants UK sitcoms, we know they appreciate their comedy but they've never watched any of their scripted shows. For me Extras and lifes too short are must watch for this channel.
Extras is a slow burn …
The Inbetweeners and The IT Crowd were both Channel 4. It's all connected
A squib is a mediaeval explosive device. It would not work if it became damp, hence something that is ineffective is called an “damp squib”.
And to be "hoist by your own petard" is to be blown up by your own Renaissance Faire grenade. Nothing to do with daggers. I am typing this in a sexy Moss voice.
You need to Black Books next!
Knew there was a scene with Moss on the witness stand but I thought it was in the episode where Roy takes the masseuse to court
The Flappy Duck is a take on Heston Blumenthal's restaurant "The Fat Duck".
Probably couldn't use the original for legal reasons.
And I'm not going there either as I'm not that rich.
And the app was called Flappy Bird.
It could also be abbreviated/condensed into a Cockney slang form of the 'F-word'...
e.g. "I don't give a flappy duck about knitting"
The 'sign' is also a NOD to mixing up the letters on the 'Hotel Name Sign' at the start of the 'Fawlty Towers' series - with the letters being mixed up from the _(actual)_ 'Fat Duck' restaurant name to the 'Flappy Bird' app name...
It’s is Squib as that’s a firework. So it is “like a damp squib” no bang 😂
Jen was getting her own back on Roy with the 'Damp Squid ' comment after the 'Girl On A Peddlestool' earlier in the show.
This wasn’t the last one! There is one more called farewell
Theyre drinking wine that looks like milk because theyre supposed to be at a famous restaurant the Fat Duck run by conceptual chef Heston Blumenthal. Look him up for the cultural reference points 😊
A squib is a small explosive firework that goes of with a loud bang. A damp squib cannot be set off. You cannot light the fuse. Therefore a damp squib is a disappointment.
You guys should react to I'm Alan Partridge. An absolute classic that not many people have reactions for. Graham Linehan himself was in an episode if I recall correctly
One of my favourite phrases is mixing two of them.
Don't burn your bridges
Cross that bridge when we get to it.
Into the glorious
"we'll burn that bridge when we cross it.
last of the summer wine, a british comedy drawn out 30 years more than it should have been
There’s a final episode left.
The Flappy Duck is a reference to a restaurant run by a celebrity chef here in the UK called Heston Blumenthal. He is best known for applying chemistry techniques to food and being exceptionally experimental with his dishes... Hence the invisible desserts and edible radios.
the man who brought the world Snail flavoured porridge, sausages made out of rice pudding and sex toys in jelly(jello) 🤣 oh yeah and Ejeculating pudding!!!
A colleague of mine once asked why people who left our team all left to this same company, and when I asked what company? He said "that pastures new place everyones talking about" 🤦😂
I think you guys would enjoy watching some of Heston Blumenthal's TV shows
He is a culinary genius who applies scientific thought process to his dishes to obtain amazing and unique results.
Liquid Nitrogen gets a lot of use and his Fat Duck restaurant has a long waiting list for anyone wanting to eat there.
If you can get some insight into his work, it will put this episode of IT crowd into context. Edible menu etc.
His restaurant was shut on one occasion for food poisoning a customer.
Confucius say man who represent himself in court has fool for client...
It’s a spoof of The Fat Duck a famous restaurant in the UK. The game was Flappy Bird.
That was Douglas' 'law-suit' he made as part of his research.
Reynolme is pronounced like the word venom but with an R at the start
I LIKE THE SCOTTISH IDIOM "SLING YOUR HOOK!" MEANS GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!!!😆😅😂😂
Flappy Bird 😅 Forgot about that one 😂
Heston Blumenthal's Fat Duck restaurant was famous for serving weird, gastro-sciencey dishes, snail porridge and egg and bacon ice cream being two real examples 😁
she played Mr Renholms Widow on the episode where douglas was introduced at the funeral
May want to try Extras if you havent already.
I think you should give the UK "Office" Christmas Special finale - you might like it.
20:15 in a nutshell the difference between US and UK sitcoms. Theirs are wisecracks and zingers, ours are about character. You have to know Moss to understand that "Your name is Maurice Moss, is it not?" will send waves of confusion through his analytical mind, trying to work out whether he should say yes or no.
It's a very trendy restaurant. The chef is Heston Blumenthal. He does all sorts of weird things like make ice cream with liquid nitrogen. So they made a joke that he could make wine from milk. The same with the invisible deserts.
You generally pronounce it "Ren-um" :) Douglas Reynholm, Reynholm Industries
Not to forget Denholm Reynholm
It's a 'Damp Squib'. As Squibs have gunpowder in them.
There is a UK restaurant called the Fat Duck that sells strange things for very high prices.
There was supposed to be a fifth series, but by the time it came to making it the cast had all moved on to bigger things.
The suit douglas wears is the same design as the one Heather Mills wore at court when she divorced paul McCartney
Its a shame there isnt more mark and ray in this episode
I think what they are drinking is White Russians, not milk, it was mentioned in previous episodes as the only drink Moss drinks, made of vodka, coffee liqueur and cream. It can look like off-coloured milk, and would explain why there is a bottle being poured (vodka possibly) at the end of the episode, and why Moss is able to drink it. Just a thought....
The other thought, now I think about it is there are references below about the drink they had from Heston Blumenthal's restaurant, where they add wine to milk. That would make more sense to this episode, and the bottle being poured at the end looks more like a wine bottle than a bottle of vodka, so ignore my previous idea:)
"Rennum" is close enough lol.
The Flappy Duck restaurant is based on The Fat Duck, a real restaurant in Berkshire, England that serves the craziest food.
The milk is a special wine in that restaurant
You know where else you know Victoria from?? This show, she also plays Reynholms mother in the funeral episode...
Black Books next! Also by Graham Linehan, also hilariously insane.
You were only disappointed with the season finale because you had put the show on a pedal stool.
Pedal-stool would be a great brand name for a unicycle company.... :)
There's still one more episode
A damp Squib ( firework )
I know it's been mentioned before, but there is 1 more episode that wraps things up. Please review it!❤
And its a longer episode. Im guessing around 40 minutes.
Alcoholic Milk is very popular in the pubs here in the uk, it’s usually around 8% proof. Maybe someone will send you some to try.
Flappy bird was the app you were thinking of
Most British shows don’t have finales at all. They film and come on quite irregularly compared to the US often so they aren’t sure if they are done or will be back in a couple years. Some return for a Christmas special or something that serves as the defacto finale.
After IT crowd, I love year of the rabbit
yeah this episode was a bit of a damp squid compared to some from season 4.
I think the one off true final episode is a lot better though.
There is still season 5 episode 1 to react to, its pretty great :D
There is a special after this
They aren't drinking 'milk,' it actually is wine, that just looks like milk. The chef that is mentioned is real! Heston Blumenthal is known for making weird creations (I want to say he made actual versions of the edible wallpaper, etc, from Charlie and the chocolate factory film). So a wine that looks like milk would be a normal thing, as would edible cutlery 😂
Guys. Sounds like this: Rennum Rhymes with denim
Say it with me.....Ren-um (Reynholm).
heston blumenthal is a british chef, he was famous for making food look unusual and mixing ingredients people assumed were weird
Totally forgot about the outfit!
That 'milk' was wine at the 'flappy duck' - a spin on the real Heston Blumenthal's real restaurant 'the Fat Duck' widely regarded as the best restaurant in the world. There are some insane videos of people eatinng there if you wanted to do a reaction!!! It has weird items like snail porridge and bacon ice cream - hence the weird items at 'the flappy duck'
The people who say pedalstool also say wheelbarrel
They have said it enough during the show .. "Ren-em Industries"
I'm pretty sure they based the suit Douglas is wearing on the Sixth Doctors.
I'm on tender hooks for this one 😜
I think his post was meant as a reference to saying things wrong so was deliberate.
I knew someone would not get it and and reply like you have just done LOL.
I believe you REALLY got me with a 'Whoosh' ('over the head' moment), because I had to delete a LONG comment about why you had said 'tenterhooks' wrong. Then I thought about it and realised you were saying it wrong deliberately and I had fallen for it... WELL PLAYED SIR! 😅 😂 🤣
A man who represents himself in court has an idiot for a client.
True, that was said by a barrister, but y'know.
You probably should do a reaction to some of Heston Blumenthal's food creations, you have covered food before, but the stuff Heston has come up with over the years will likely blow your mind.
For a starter (pun fully intended) you could start with Heston's guests eat the tableware
Moss's physical comedy is best!!!!
Please do Toast of London, you will not be disappointed.
You need to check out heston!
Mighty Boosh
Having a glass pedal stool would have its advantages would it not 😄
Not sure how you can watch 6 series of a show where Ren-um is pronounced many many times and still be calling it Rain-home in confusion.
