My son got sick in England. I took him to an NHS doc. I tried to pay, since we are not citizens, but they said "we have no real mechanism for that, just put a tenner in a charity box. No joke. He just had an ear infection, but they still said to bring him back in a couple of days.
Not surprising. My cousin was visiting from the States and needed an antibiotic for a throat infection. When he got his prescription from the doctor he stopped at reception to sort out the cost of the visit and the receptionist just waved him away with an 'awk away on you go'. He couldn't believe it. I don't even think he had to pay for the antibiotic in the end as prescriptions are free in NI.
itsonlysound
That's crazy
It's sad that that seems crazy to people. Healthcare is a human right, not a business
You have taxes we have to pay taxes plus NI (National Insurance) that covers the health care. It's a better system than the US.
@@itsonlysound I find it quite sad that Americans find it surprising. Every human has the right to free healthcare like most of Europe.
As a Brit who has lived in the States, you guys have it tough.
Watching this in 2019, knowing what he's gone through since this was filmed breaks my heart.
I don't really keep up with celebs, can you give me a quick run through please?
@@abanjoplayer his son had a tumour on his neck and died during the surgery. If you check out his interview with Russell Howard it's heartbreaking and so so brave.
@@hughtube5154 ah right, cheers
@@hughtube5154 The son didn't die during the surgery, he lost some motor functions that got damaged. He says clearly in the interview that his son died at home on the couch
Both Kimmel and Delaney know what it is like to have a very ill child. They have a lot profoundly in common that way.
seeing people be surprised by how free healthcare works is so weird
eternalsunshine It's not free... Taxes, very high taxes pay for it. I would pay a higher tax rate to have it but the rest of the country won't.
It costs less than half what the current US system does per capita, so there's no reason why it would necessarily mean you need higher taxes (www.pgpf.org/chart-archive/0006_health-care-oecd)
On 2Wheels it's free in the sense that anyone can use it without the mention of money. And you wouldn't have to pay "very high" taxes the NHS is cheaper than the American system
Actually, in Europe, the poor and the middle class don't have high taxes. Mostly is the rich. But here in America people seem to think the rich need hand outs and tax breaks.
eternalsunshine it is not free anywhere. even where it is labelled as free it is payed by people's high taxes.
‘It’s a double decker bus so they love riding them and it’s still new to me so I do too.’
I’m 18 and have been on double deckers all my life. I still love them.
Aha as a born and bred Londoner, I LOVE the NHS too but you are wrong on the dentist. It's not free. It's actually very expensive!
Yeah but checkups are free & the costs no more I believe then in US. It could be a lot worse
FLAVEEARR The NHS isn't free you moron. We pay for it. With our taxes
Not compared to other countries!
No. Checkups are not free, they're around £30. It's £50 for something like a filling and anything that requires lab work (like a crown) is around £250
@@sloan_9026 moron
I love the fact that Jimmy encourages people to clap for Carrie Fisher, she was the greatest. The world is not the same! R.I.P Carrie!
Catastrophe is one of the best comedies I've ever seen, genuinely amazing. Also dig: Fleabag, Chewing Gum and Please Like Me.
Fleabag was fine but a little too wierd in my opinion. I wouldn't rewatch.
Statistically in many ways the UK has the best teeth in the world.
If you haven't seen Catastrophe. WATCH IT! One of the best series ever!
The sun sets at 4:30pm/5pm in Winter and everyone doesn't have weird teeth. Signed toothless, pasty Londoner.
I'd say last light is at 4ish sometimes. Around solstice it's gets dark way earlier than 5, sunset is like 3 something.
Are you up north? In south Wales (which is the same as London) the earliest it gets dark is 4.30 but that's only for a few days and the days draw out again.
In winter the worst is about 4pm and in summer the best is almost 10pm, in the south of England anyway.
Yes, and it's not in the Arctic Circle, and is way south of Amsterdam let alone Norway. I get that the guy's a comedian, but he ought to know that an American audience is far more likely not to know any better and take that as Gospel than to get that he's joking.
@@AlanHope2013 Brooklyn, New York here. Not totally naive and parochial. One knows he is not giving a report in a literal way. We all have December solstice. We also have different latitudes in different states and we have different time zones between the states. Go figure. In Michigan, you can see the northern lights. In San Francisco, it is misty in the summer depending on the hills in the neighborhood. The internet lets you verify moonrise and moonset and its phases along with sunrise and sunset times by location. You can look up constellations. You can navigate without GPS by constellations - with a sextant.
I don't see bad teeth unless I watch Jemery Kyle. According to the UN we have better teeth than the Americans. Weird stereotype!!
DaChaGee I think it's just on tv that people in America are obsessed with whitening and straightening their teeth. They hate imperfection.
All Americans think brits have austin powers teeth
Because they mean "crooked teeth" not bad teeth, its just because braces aren't free here unless your child has a serious need for them, so lots of parents can't afford them privately.... Crooked teeth isn't the same thing as bad/poor dental hygiene! 😏
@@richardsmith9833 see my previous comment! 😂 😊🤗
You yanks are mad about teeth we have better teeth than you proven fact
Statistically the UK has better teeth in terms of health than the USA. However, having bleached, white, teeth is culturally a sign of success in the United States.
And to the rest of the world it’s a sign of the whelk is still turning but the hamster is dead
I am English and never had a filling and my teeth are perfectly straight. I steer clear of having my teeth whitened though as I think it looks unnatural and weird.
If you haven't watched Catastrophe then you really should, it is hysterical.
Annual rainfall - London 601mm; Rome 834; NYC 1145. I have been playing tennis out doors near London every Sunday morning and in the last 5 years we have had to cancel less than a dozen times due to weather (Usually early morning frost). London is cloudy but ideal for golf, cycling, tennis, hiking... 12 months of the year. Also, on Dec 21st Sun up at 08:00, SD at 16:00. By April 30 that is 05:30/20:30 (15 hours). NHS is great but does not cover teeth. However, teeth and bad food are American myths re British. New York has much bigger portions & i think it shows.
USA should get universal healthcare. I can't imagine living in a country without it.
Messofanego We invented the Mcrib. We're not exactly the smartest nation on Earth.
Messofanego Because no one wants to pay the high taxes Europeans do.
On 2Wheels do you prefer to pay thousands in ever-increasing fees?
On 2Wheels Paying for our healthcare in the UK is done through general taxation, someone earning approx £21000 gross per year would pay about £4500 in income tax and National insurance. The more you earn obviously the more you pay, people who earn less than about £12000 a year don't pay tax at all and yet just like those who earn £21000 or £1,000,000 receive healthcare in exactly the same way, we never need to take money to the hospital and are never judged by our financial situation. Of course there are private health companies also but only the rich will generally use these as they can be faster, say if you needed a hip replacement then on the NHS you could wait up to about six months but done privately a few days or weeks.
Messofanego sure socialism is the best
NHS ROCK!✊️✊️ every country should have it. British teeth aren't horrible and also, it's only some people who are elegible for free dentists but a lot of people have to pay for it.
Every country in the West aside from the USA has universal healthcare. NHS is nothing exceptional and the quality of healthcare provided by NHS isn't the best either I'm afraid. Just setting the record straight.
George Firyt it is exceptional and the quality of care ( as far as when I've needed it) has been brilliant. No need to set anything straight, the NHS rocks! Although it is strained ATM lol
I don't doubt that NHS rocks. I was just trying to point out that it is not exceptional as the vast majority of Western countries have it (apart from the US). Free universal healthcare is in every European country, Canada, AU, NZ, etc. And statistically, the quality of health care is much better in most of continental Europe.
George Firyt ah ok, cool✌️❤
@@Georgefirth100 ok but in this case they're talking about the UK
I love the guy's show, Catastrophe. And they have really hit a lot of catastrophes with the passing of Carrie Fisher who was great on the shoe, and then the death of Rob's son. The show is hilarious and so true to life as well. Amazing writing and humor. I think this was Carrie Fisher's best role.
The NHS is by far the single best thing about the UK, my mum and dad both had preventative surgery as a result of certain screening programs and are alive and well today. Also my sister had very serious asthma from a young age and has received nothing but excellent care up to the present day.
It's also 100% true that a hospital or doctor's practice would never turn you away because of your nationality or financial situation, it just doesn't happen.
There is an £8.50 charge per course of prescription medication like antibiotics but that's a flat rate and only applies if you take it at home and it's minor like a chest cough or a minor infection. And you only have to pay it if you earn over a certain amount per year, if you are in any education or training and stuff then it's free too. To make it clear, any treatment and medicine given in hospital or if you have a condition is completely free of charge regardless of your situation. This includes stuff like managing long term conditions in people that costs thousands in meds but the money is always there. We are so lucky to live in the developed world with good healthcare. Peace to all.
Lol London is in the Arctic Circle and the Sun sets at 2:30 😂 What Nonsense.
And the dentist isn't free. Smh. But the positivity is nice thanks dudes
In the UK there's actually a debate that the NHS is being privatised or will somehow end up like the US system, and then you listen to this, and, it's emotional...
The NHS is bloody amazing 👍👍👍
British teeth aren't as bad as Americans think they are.
How many Americans have to have their teeth straightened and painted luminous white?
If your teeth were so good you wouldn't have to do any of that crap.
You don't transplant a heart if the original one is good do you.
all the countries americans consider to be better than all have a better standard of living, from the UK to Cuba to Libya so i laugh when they think Brits have bad teeth to make themselves feel better. They're so far behind its fkin tragic
The reality is, USA: not as great as they love to tell you it is. and they looooove to tell you how great it is.
You are right in many ways, but there are plenty of Americans, who don't think that way. I moved here from Germany 27 years ago. My experience is, that only about half the people act uber-patriotic. The problem is, that lots of people never leave the US. So they have no idea, what they are talking about, which is sad.
Agreed on the Trump part.
Azrael "disappointed at how susceptible they are to manipulation and how easily theyre distracted by their media" - I think this is the biggest problem. I'm a massive troll so i've argued with loads of people. One thing i've noticed with Americans is you'll tend to hear ideas posited in a very homogeneous fashion.
I'm not saying that the UK is much better. It's always easy to distinguish a Sun/ Guardian/ Daily Mail/ Telegraph/ Times reader. But I get the sense that Americans either don't consume enough balanced media or that they don't thrash out ideas through discussion with peers. It could even be something else. I've never visited so it's hard to discern.
Azrael I’ve always been fairly realistic about America’s stance in the world but I think this is slightly cynical. Comedians exaggerate stereotypes and while there are genuinely ignorant Americans, there’s just as many not running their mouth. I don’t live in the greatest country in the world, but I do know how blessed I am to live in a country as advanced as mine. We got a lot to work on but hey man, a lot of us do realize it. All countries do really, nothing but love from your man the States!
britain has free dental care for those who can't afford.it's a fallacy brits have bad teeth in fact they have the lowest amount cavities per populous in the world..i think its because of all the tea we drink which has floride in and also tanins help harden the enamel.i see americans like there teeth upfronts ok vaneered but behind the scene full of holes and rot.
'Do they go to the Buckingham palace?' Oh ffs 😴
Manda He scanned his brain for things he knew about London, I mean England.
Jimmy kimmel is a dickhead for mocking Britain!
It's like moving to the US and saying- Do they go to the white house?
Obviously not lol
@@okkcomputer Did you watch the video? Jimmy had given Rob a list of favorite London restaurants that was so long, after two years, Rob said he and his wife had gone to *only* 40 of them. Jimmy suggested Rob’s kids might spend their time visiting Buckingham Palace *because* *it’s* *a* *comedy* *show.*
@@RichardHandal301 nah its just an ignorant american with no knowledge of the outside world.. average american really
It so true about London and food! When I was growing up the food in London was so bland that it was a running joke. Then suddenly it became super cosmopolitan and now I make trips to London specifically to eat at their restaurants. London as food destination, how did that happen?
Actually our teeth are better than most Americans.
The UKs children have the best teeth on planet Earth according to surveys by many company’s. Weird facts on QI XL
You don't get free dental care in the UK, they still make you pay for it, it's just not as expensive as private dental care (but is still expensive!)
Teeth thing is a myth. U.K. and Germany statistically have the best teeth in the world. Being in London...50% of the population is not British. So....he’s not seeing British teeth. Plus....isn’t it a little racist? Grouping people and stereotyping physical appearance?
Good lord he's exaggerating for comedic effect (the teeth, the sun going down early) calm down people!
I live in London and my teeth are great ,
I think orthodonture is much less common in your neck of the woods. To Americans, British teeth may look "bad," when they are really just natural. You don't see a lot of gap teeth or crooked teeth here and if you do, that person probably can't afford braces. Our culture doesn't care if you're bankrupt and dying, you just need bright white movie star teeth.
@@auberginejean yes you're correct! But that's because orthodontics aren't free like other types of dental care for kids are, unless your child has a serious problem that will effect their teeths function, so many people can't afford private orthodontics, as the cost for that is crazy compared to Nhs dental costs! .....and bleaching is 100% private.
Most people including yourself do understand that crooked teeth do not necessarily mean dirty or bad teeth though, I think it's just one of those annoying stereotypes that us Brit's have to suffer repeatedly unfortunately! 😏😑😊
@@Alphacentauri819 I think YOU need to re-read Jo's response seeing as there was absolutely no 'knee jerk defensiveness' at all...literally none. It was a pleasant back and forth between two people 🙃
No, it doesn't get dark at 2.30 pm. In mid winter it gets at dark at 4.15 but in summer at 10 p.m.
NHS rocks and should be protected by everyone
Man I’ll never forget this dude’s EPIC stand up set from like 2014 on the show. One of the worst bombs I’ve ever seen, so good.
"it's in the Arctic Circle".
Jimmy Fallon - "really?". 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Why do people think Dentists in England are free, they are until 18 then it's so expensive, I'm 18 and I got shocked at how expensive it is
Heidi jessica true!
Heidi jessica in comparison to other countries the dentist in uk is cheap. And there is both nhs and private dentist. And i know it, because I have family living around Europe and for me it is the cheapest to go to dentist from all of us.
Well in USA its very expensive too, personally I pay $250 monthly for health insurance-dental,vision- can have 1 dental cleaning per year free- meaning I still pay $40 copay. If I happen to pay out of pocket it will be $100-150. Im gonna cancel that insurance asap
its free if unemployed or you pay a small amount, free if your wages are on low level and you get something called tax credit oryou on benefits
This is why the NHS is collapsing. A few million paying their taxes toward a service that hundreds of millions use.
There you go Jimmy Kimmel. Beat out NHS!!!!
Finally, an engaging episode of Kimmel
im thankful for these uploads, because Lord knows i cant stay up at 11 to watch this
I had no clue about this show. It looks funny. I'll give it a try!
Exceptional comedy series! Just watched final episode here in England. I'm gonna miss it!!!!
I am 65 and have all my own teeth bar one. Which was broken by two private dentists after I moved out of the UK. NHS dentistry is okay if you can find a dentist that contracts with the NHS. Private dentistry is available just as private medicine is available. But dentists are more committed to making money in private practice and, in my opinion, often do unnecessary and harmful work just to make money.
Free dentistry is only available until the age of 16, then you have to remortgage your home
Free under 16, Free for the unemployed, free for pregnant women, Free for people with disabilities , Free for Jocks. And when you do have to pay its very reasonable. For instance , £25 for a check up including minor work like a filling. If you want a crown its about £300. I just paid less than £40 for root canal work which took over an hour.
john caley yeah, personally I have put £1000 + into my teeth, I mean 2 caps cost me £340, but I have had to pay since 16 as I have always worked and am fully able . It’s expensive when you get into the special treatments though. Can’t believe the bad teeth thing is still brought up, I mean this isn’t 1950 or something.
And free for students
@hicky Agreed.
@@santzklawzzful You talk about 1950, the Yanks are still going on about saving our asses from speaking German, so they're going back to 1944.
UK Dentistry is Private, there are some NHS Dentists but you still have to pay at the check out. Youngsters who are in full time education are covered by the NHS and their treatment is free.
Ok a quick thing on UK healthcare. When we say our healthcare is free technically that’s a lie. By free we mean Free at the Point of Use. Similar to the police, fire brigade, schools, roads etc they are free when we use them but they are paid for through our taxes. We simply feel that it’s the most sensible way to ensure that everyone is covered and that everyone can use it when they need it.
He will have been registered as non uk and what should happen is the US will then be asked to pay for the care. I say should but a lot of the time it doesn’t happen. It depends who and how the person is registered on the system. There are a lot of different categories.
In a recent study it found that British people actually have better teeth than the USA
shes been gone for a few months, i still cant get over her death :( may the force be with you
who? Princess Diana?
FoodforThought LMFAO AROPTKFKDK
Jimmy seems like a strong friend
only watching for Carrie ❤
I'm British and my teeth are beautiful. The Yanks need a new stereotype. Brits got teeth-conscious in the 80s and are obsessed now with the perfect smile, veneers, implants, etc. Odd that somebody who lives here now would play up to stereotypes and misinform people about the weather.
I think it's true that British people visit the dentists less.
@@susanneyuk-pingpong8705 Every 6 months has always been the norm for everyone I know. Private dentists tend to advise their patients to go regularly, can't speak for NHS.
@Jasleen BS.
@R.C. Name these programs. US programs with real people have atrocious teeth!
The teeth are getting better but there’s still an awful lot of messed up teeth here
British teeth rank far higher in health than American teeth. A fact Americans might want to research
Could I please get a liquid shot of this guys energy?
Dentist for adults, most have to pay. It’s not included in the NHS 😭
I'm just wondering what part of London he lives in, North, South, West or East I could meet him.
He got money now, so it's sure as hell not South Ldn. Unless it's some posh new build in Greenwich or a detached in Richmond or something. Probably doesn't commute from Peckham Rye lbr here 😂
Most people’s teeth are fine. I’ve never understood that stereotype
It just makes Americans feel better about their unnatural, fluorescent, glaringingly obnoxious, shiny white teeth that they think makes them look attractive but in reality are just really weird;)
Dennet Lane there are studies that show a way to take years off is to whiten, polish your teeth :)
Of course people can and do go too far..
too many people don’t notice how stained there teeth get with coffee, tea, wine, juices or smoking 🤢etc... through the years, it really doesn’t add to attractiveness.
Kids teeth aren’t usually that color. So, neither ultra white or discolored is natural or most attractive.
Clean, polished, unstained teeth look healthiest and most attractive.
Of course, what matters most is someone’s attitude, heart and soul :)
The show is so good
Heartbreaking hearing him speak of his kids 💔
I'm reading this and I'm watching this. This guy isn't suffering from depression. Lol
"But two comedians who suffer from their own form of mental illness struggled this week to bring the issue to the fore.
Comic Rob Delaney reposted a 2010 blog entry Monday entitled “On Depression & Getting Help,” where he wrote, “I deal with suicidal, unipolar depression and I take medication daily to treat it.”
These guys lie every day. Lol
he laughs like one of jim carrey's characters.
This is so sad, before his son died
RIP
People's Medical care should not be subject to market forces. The NHS isn't perfect but compared to the alternative... 🤔
Rob is the best
His laugh reminds me of Paul Lynde lol
He’s right Health care here in the UK is not as complicated as it is in the US.
If here, once more, an American say ,Buckingham HAM Palace I'm sure I'll scream.
Most people under 30 have quite good teeth now in the UK.
Actually UK dental care is generally better than the US .
Do you not have double-decker buses in the US?
Izzy Holly In Long Beach CA they do.
not really
NYC has the tourist line buses, but the regular metrocard fare transit buses are long, not stacked. The tourist double decker buses seem to be an obstruction by their scale and by the way they are driven.
why didnt you do any standup this time? I will never forget the last time you did standup on this show
god bless you peter
I still get so sad whenever Carrie Fisher is mentioned somewhere... gone way too soon
Rob Delaney you're amazing and so is Catastrophe but please don't encourage foreigners to abuse the NHS, it's amazing but it's also in crisis and we can't afford to free fund the world who might think it's cheaper to buy a plane ticket than pay for treatment in their own country, what we're you thinking
My biggest gripe with the UK is most homes do not have air conditioning and summers can be extremely hot contrary to popular belief. Before I get hate I'm English talking from experience
Don,t take the piss out of the uk when back in America other wise we will sent in the boys you know what mean😂
So heart breaking that one of his little boys died 😕
About teeth...I am so glad I had my teeth straightened for free as a child, and 2 of my children. Pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to afford to do them on my wages.
Good lord he’s handsome.
You still have to be upfront at the counter for prescriptions though unless you’re unemployed.
Or if you're in Scotland or Northern Ireland
@@Mike-km2ct Paid for by England and Wales
I know our health care is a mess but a least we don't pay like the Americans I feel sorry for them having to pay for everything I bet soon as there paid it's gone like ours but thay seem to be paying for more
It's England not London w***** 🇬🇧🇬🇧
It's so embarrassing how ignorant Jimmy's questions are. He does no research.
Jimmy can I have your london restaurant list
I only watched to hear about Carrie Fisher.
Great interview.
Why does this guy remind me of will forte. Cover his eyes up and it will freak you out. He even sounds like him.
Dental care is not free here unfortunately, I don’t know why he thinks that.
I question the fact he lives in London.....everything he said is wrong! If you're not a UK tax payer, ya gonna need some insurance. You do pay for your dental work, and the sun never sets at 1430 yo! Maybe he was exaggerating there but just no.
Stephanie Siu he's clearly exaggerating
Stephanie Siu Maybe it happened for him.
I live in Nottingham, in a he winter around Christmas the sun most certainly does set between 2:30 and 3:30 some days. I think people forget how far north the U.K is.
He said you should have to pay, but they wouldn’t charge you. Maybe not so clearly. Sun sets around 3.30 in the winter and it’s properly dark around 10 ish In the summer, so not far out. Maybe only his kids have been to the dentist, so he’s made a mistake. He certainly does live there.
He was exaggerating for comic effect on the weather, but you don't need insurance, my friends work in the NHS and regularly treat foreign citizens without asking. I think they are probably supposed to ask, but they don't actually have any method to take payment so they don't bother
It’s weird the way our Dr’s don’t charge the rest of the world...And we wonder why it’s a financial black hole 🕳 every time there’s an audit.
I know this will be mentioned numerous times in the comments but dentists are not a part of the NHS and they are painfully expensive, the last time i had to have a really small filling it cost me around £50. A lot of people actually put off going to the dentist until they feel like they really have to.
Of course there are NHS dentists! 82% have a NHS contract (2015 stats). I go every six months for a check up and don't pay a penny. All treatment for under 18's, unemployed and pensioners is free. A charge is levied at the waged, but it's massively subsidised when compared to private practitioners. However, I do wish that treatment was free, at the point of need, for all. It would cost a tax increase of a penny in the pound, but, the government hasn't the balls to increase taxes - even for a good cause. Time for a new government?!
£50 for a filling!!! Girl you're in heaven!! I pay $250 monthly for insurance and still pay $40 copay at dentist for my "free" dental cleaning. I know a guy who got his wisdom tooth remove without anestesia couldnt afford it!
NHS public hospital care.treatment is free,though if you go private or want fancy cosmetic,dental replacements,hair treatments,it will cost you a bomb. Dentists are essentially free,again apart from private or if you need a tooth out at 1am in the morning..eg my usual NHS dentist is free,but when i wanted one out at an all night dentist (often not NHS),i forked out £100
why people hate this dude ?
You go to the doctor and wait 3 hours. Look at Canada’s health care. It’s a nightmare.
I don't know why you think that. I think the most I've ever had to wait at the doctors was 30 minutes because they were really busy but in some doctors you can phone and get an appointment the same day, and then be seen within 10 minutes of your appointment when you arrive. Also even if you did have to wait three hours, how is that worse than paying an extortionate amount of money to see a doctor?
Get this, drugs are usually cheaper than the prescription cost (of £7.20 approx) I've had numerous NHS doctors tell me "I'm not going to write you the prescription, it'll be cheaper to buy it from the chemist next door."
Oh great thanks :P
Yeah some doctors are great like that :)
how's he gone from 8 out of 10 cats to Jimmy Kimmel???
Ask yourself how much did Rob & Jimmy spend on their teeth. Probably a regular Joe's annual salary.
Seriously the only good thing that Twitter was responsible for.
Teeth aren't supposed to be white
The teeth problem is due to us not using Fluoride as much.
The teeth thing is because english people are not shallow cunts
According to the DFMT Index of dental health, UK is No.5 and USA is No.9...Oops, sorry USA, but let's not let the truth spoil a good stereotype.
