Ted Moult advertised Double glazing, they were sound proofed so the shot wouldn't be heard.
Leonard Rossiter advertised Cinzano Bianco with Joan Collins.Classic ads.Funny
Went to his club a couple of times, The Embassy Club,in Manchester, England.
Bernard Manning was born and bred a place called Harpurhey in Manchester.
He was the best comic Britain ever had
Ted Moult was a comedian who did double glazing ads on television back in the 80s, the selling point being how much noise they kept out compared to regular windows. Ted Moult ended his own life with a gún, and Bernard was saying how no one heard a thing because his windows were shut.
Some people say Bernard’s “Bisto” joke is the funniest joke ever told. It’s hilarious.
Bisto is a powder which is used to make gravy, and the joke pokes fun at the Yorkshire accent. ✌️

Local legend is our Bernard
Bernard Manning ran a Variety Club in Manchester UK called The Embassy Club. He booked acts like The Beatles before they achieved stardom.
He didn't rate them. Said they won't be coming back 🤭
I went to see him at his Embassy club in Manchester in the 90's. My stomach muscles were sore for days after from extreme belly laughing. There was a party of black people in that night and he did not go easy on them, but they were in hysterics. After the show, he went to their table with flowers for the ladies and sat with them laughing and joking for a good 10 minutes. Everybody got destroyed in equal measure by Bernard, white black or brown, male and female.
I saw him live many times and he always went down very well, he took the pi $$ out of anyone and everyone and no one got offended, this was back in the eighties when people tended to have more about them than now and did'nt go out of their way to be upset or traumatised by a joke or two!
Sim sim You obviously had a sense of humour by- pass
@@paulwoolley4957 I'd agree with you...but then we'd both be wrong.
❤❤❤❤❤
He was accused of racism by many but my view was don’t go to his show if you are easily offended. He was a Night Club Owner from Manchester!
Stay at home, don't watch or listen to anything then you won't be offended, you have a choice
His act was racist, saw him
At the Embassy many times and he was hilarious
"You'll never stop use laughing" is still one of my mantra's, though in todays society that's also becoming harder.
Bernard was THE best.
One of the greatest comedians ever.
Saw him at the Galaxy and the Embassy clubs, his mother law jokes are legendary. Split my sides laughing
Funny how he never laughs at the Irish jokes… Americans have this thing where they think they are all Irish! 🥴😂
The joke about "Ted Moult" shooting himself and no one hearing it, was that Ted Moult advertised Double Glazing where he would be talking to you then shut the window to show the noise reduction abilities of the double glazing.
The comedian he mentioned " Leonard Rossiter" was Rigsby from rising damp. An awesome actor
Bernard is a legend. Him and chubbs. Bernards joke about a Muslim woman and a pilchard killed me lol
😂 a local legend and I'm glad the embassy club is still open (not that I'd go there now it's as rough as granite sandpaper)
I am right to believe the Embassy Club is still run by his son? 😐
@@MrSinclairn it was last I knew, but I'm not 100% sure.
Great comedy genius 👏
Saw him live at the Dun Cow in the Old Kent Road, South London, in the late 80's if my memory serves me, was totally BRILLIANT. Saw Jimmy Jones, a week or so later at the same venue, he was really good but no comparison, truly.
This is from a charity performance to aid the victims of a ferry that capsized in zeebrugge.
Dad was in the british army in Germany and lost one of his colleagues on the herald of free enterprise.
Remember watching the full show at the time on vhs. Raised a lot of money
Btw. French letter is slang for a condom.
.
Adults forget they themselves told these bad jokes as kids and later on get offended by the same joke 10 years later on. Somehow we've all forgotten these are jokes and NOT commands and or the truth. Bernard Manning to some people represents real comedy, raw and nothing off the table. But for some he represents harm and hate. They are jokes that's all they are. I've heard all his jokes about races, disabled people, women and gays. Never offended and I see them as jokes and NOT reality. Love it thanks for the upload.
It's because the comedy on television was taken over by middle class students, who went for observational, clever comedy, which had its place and was funny as well. But it gave vent to the middle class ponces who run TV and the media, hatred and contempt for the working classes, and the sort of jokes you still hear in pubs and factories. Bernard was a working class comedian, can't have that.
Hello Alan. This was his act that made his living. He knew it caused people to be offended, but it was an act. I went with a bunch of Sikhs on a stag do to his club, which was a very memorable night out.
You must watch the las vega grand shows
A lot of people did not realise he started of as a singer in church and has an amazing voice
I seen Bernard live many years ago he was brilliant and took the mick out of everyone no mater what race or gender. He once said I couldn’t be gay as I couldn’t stand being turned down by men aswell as women 🤣
Bernard was accused, and even after his death, was still accused of being and racists. Like most comedians the had an alter ego 😊 When questioned on live TV about this, Bernard said, I'm not racist, I tell jokes about everybody 😉
That set was for club goer's and is dated now , early 1980's and some of the gags were
topical that only U K viewers would understand. You gave it a good go and I did not hear
what was said in the Irish letter joke & a couple others.....lol
Bernard says "An Irishman put a French Letter (condom) on backwards - and went", as opposed to...
For those that didn't know,:
Ted Moult used to do TV ads for Everest Double Glazing, espousing the sound reduction qualities of the products. Hence the 'nobody heard it' quip.
French letter = condom.
Thanks!
Thank you!!
BM one of the greatest comedians this country produced. We know all the good work he did for charities. He took the p-s out of everyone.
Northern England and Scottish accents go really well with comedy
Great reaction 👍
'French letters' is slang for condoms.
The Comedians was also a tv show that used to be on early evening, family audiences kinda thing.
Bernard was funny as hell, and you always knew what to expect.
Excellent review... regardless of his material he was the perfect comedian
I saw him live he was very Funny indeed. Not PC at all
Wish more comedians were like him
Ted Moult was famous for advertising double glazing.
A Yankee is a type of accumulator bet.
Some things to remember about the Northern accent which might help you understand it at least a little better.
You might hear 'owt' or 'nowt (sounds like 'out' or 'nout') which means anything/something and nothing respectively, 'Have you got owt on you to buy a drink?' as an example, 'iv got nowt on me sorry.
You might hear the 'un' sound replacing the word 'one', when its used like 'hes a good'un that lad eh' or like Bernard said about the comics dropping like flies 'at least its the thin'uns' which is maybe obvious now, thin ones. Although if you hear 'wrong'un' its usually meant about a bad person, like a bad egg 'Hes a right wrong'un that Alan'. But its not really used on too many words but those examples are used.
You might also hear silent s, like the word 'isnt' sounds like 'int', but also to say 'in the' is also 'int' lol. So as an example, 'it isnt in the tin' is 'it int int tin', but said smoothly like one word. sounds like it tint tin tin.
Leonard Rossiter (Rigsby in Rising Damp, that you might have reacted to) advertised the drink, Cinzano Bianco. Ted Moult was a tv presenter, into old crafts stuff like Fred Dibnah, Ted advertised double glazing, with an emphasis on how good the soundproofing was. When he shot himself, the line in my crowd was "Hey love, go outside, tell me if you can hear this..." Same joke.
Bernard is an interesting figure. The Embassy, his club in Manchester, remained his home turf. And he lived in the "posh houses" in that part of the city until he died. But let's not gloss the racism over. His conviction that white people are just better was real and without irony. In an interview he was asked if anything upset him. He said kids with cancer. He meant it, he did a lot of charity work for children's causes. In the interview he said, completely seriously, not like Frankie Biyle might say it, to shock. "You've got to feel sorry for those kiddies. Even the black ones."
You've got to feel sorry for those kiddies. Even the black ones.", lol.
I always enjoy every minute of Bernard up there on the stage or wherever he makes people laugh out loud.
Should do a reactiion to league of gentlemen really dark humor but hillarious
Bernard was the funniest man that Britain has ever produced.
His bisto joke is now comedy legend
@@peterfullerton3473
I must have heard it 20 times at least, and i still laugh as much as i did the 1st time i heard it.
Bernard is brilliant, I'm Irish and I think his Irish jokes are hilarious
I'm Irish too and I agree 100%.
Bernard Manning, RIP, was not to everyone's tastes, but I thought he was brilliant. He certainly would not go down well now because of PC. There is a funny video of him being interviewed by Mrs Merton, with "Victor Meldrew" off "One foot in the Grave". There you see the difference between a stand up comedian, and an actor given comedy lines.
If you were anything other than a White male (preferably racist as well) he was anything but brilliant...he was club comedian because that was his level, the BRILLIANT comedians got TV shows...Dave Allen, Tommy Cooper et al....the low lifes like Manning stayed were they belonged
Bernard Manning was so funny.
Fingers crossed it gets through, before i see your reaction
French letter being a condom. Putting it on backwards and 'went' (instead of 'coming').
Bernard Manning is old-shool. Before the P.C. era when people didn't really get offended at all. Good days.
I san assure you many people did get offended...just because you didnlt says more about you than others
@@paulfranklin8636 Yeah, it says that I have a sense of humour and could take a damned joke.
Those that couldn't didn't have to be there or watch it.
@@paulfranklin8636 Offence is taken not given, like he said "if you're easily offended you should not have come" same applies to modern comedians Boyle and Carr,
Yep he helped increase racism and violence on women and minorities.
@@paulfranklin8636 yeah but there were more people that weren’t offended than the minority that were offended ….. back in those days we could laugh at what we wanted to laugh at … we had freedom of speech and freedom of choice … it you didn’t like comedians like Bernard Manning then you didn’t go to his shows …. Just look at the state of our society now …. It’s totally Fu#kEd Up …
He was the first comedian that they issued a public health warning against him
You might like "Bernard Manning death" where he attends his own funeral. Cleverly done.
I went to see him live in the nineteen nineties he took the piss out of my balding head, it was funny, what was even better the young lad sat next to me laughed at me too much so Bernard picked on him next It embarrassed the lad to everyone’s enjoyment,I appreciated that he took no prisoners
Manning was a typical working men's club type of entertainer, of the old school. Les Dawson was another who came up from a similar route. He was often said to be the bad boy of comedy, using a lot of double entendre and having most of his jokes focussed around race, sex, and religion. In real life, he was the opposite of his public persona, though, being a very clean living family man. If you like this style of comedy, you'll love Les Dawson, Frank Carson, and Charlie Williams.
Dawson was totally different to Manning...he was observational, self-deprecating and above all a comedy genius, Manning whatever hos private life may have been like portrayed a racist sexist oaf...never could abide the bloke....I''m 69 so was in my 20s & 30s when he was "big" even then I hated him just liek Chubby Brown
@@paulfranklin8636 So you're a middle class prude.
one you didnt understand was he said an Irish guy put a 'French Letter' which is slang for a condom on backward and went !!! instead of came coz on backward. . . .
A french letter was a 'euphemism' for condom, if it helps any with the joke at 7:00 lololol
Hahaha brilliant 😅😅😅😅
You looked quite stumped at ''An Irish fella put on a French letter backwards and went'': a French letter is English slang for a condom.
The Irishman “Put on a French Letter ( euphemism for condom) on backwards and he went”
I'd love to see what you'd make of Charlie Chuck.😁
I’m from Manchester and even I struggled to understand some of it…. 😅
A French letter is an old term for a condom, so when put on inside out he went instead of came.
The Comedians was recorded for television and had to be very clean.
A bit of context for you. The comment where you said about his accent being thick, and not getting what he said, Lennard Rossiter, from Rising Damp, used to advertise the vermouth alcoholic drink Cinzano Bianco, and he was saying that he's not sold a bottle of it since his death, and has got loads of bottles of it left in his club cellar. And Ted Moult was a British farmer, tv personality, that used to advertise double glazing in the early to mid '80's, in the adverts he would say about how sound proof double glazing was. Apparently, so I've just found out, he sadly took his own life. Hence the comment about not hearing the shot, because the windows were closed.
Say what you like but Bernard's ability to remember jokes was incredible.
French letter is another term for a condom. He put it on backwards and ‘went’ instead of ‘came’ 🤣
Hi Alan The Comedians you mentioned was very tame But Do try The Wheel Tappers & Shunters club amazing ( World class of the time ) Entertainers to an amended actual club in a built up area of Wythenshawe/Manchester Enjoy
Christ !!! I didn't realise I was older than Leonard Rossiter when he died !!
😂😂❤
Jimmy Jones next please.
Old bernard was a Product of the 70'&80's!
He played Vegas once and went down a storm, they wanted him to come back but he refused, it should be on TH-cam.
Bernard is pronounced “burner” with a D on the end.
Weird thing about Bernard was he got cancelled even before woke was a thing he disappeared from uk TV in early 1980s
He was the best comedian ever to live he gave a lot of money to charity’s for black white and Asians and he was brought up from a very poor family and was loyal to the British empire and queen
At the time there was a which hunt and he fitted the bill
When most celebrities did charity events they charged a fee but Bernard did it for nothing at would donate thousands
The comedians was broadcast on TV so was likely edited versions showing the best jokes but of the clean jokes
Leonard rossiter played rigsby in rising damp.sadly too young to go
A french letter is a condom. He put it on backwards and went🏴✌️
Salam brother Ramadan kareem 🥰🌙❤
You must try the mighty boosh.also frank Skinner live
Irish fella pu a french letter (condom) on backwards and went, instead of come.
Have you watched Roy chubby brown yet?
Yes
There are a lot of British references in his material that an American may not understand due to cultural differences.
I'm from the same town he's from and even I can;t understand everything he says.
French letter = condom, Yankee bet containing four choices.He may have been one of the first Cancelled comics.
the comedians was made for tv so they was restricted in what they could say but i can assure you no tv and the cloves where off
Alot of comics had a tv show and s private show.......language was different in yhe 70s
I'm from a similar area to Bernard Manning and even I had problems hearing what he was saying, EB. I think it's more the quality of the sound rather than his accent that's the problem here.
Sup EB. Have you ever seen The Ranch? It's a modern US Comedy that cracks me up. My apologies if you saw my other comment asking the same thing but I left it on a pretty old vid so I figured you might not have seen it. In any case I think it might make you laugh.
It's a hilarious show. I think I've seen all but the very last season of it.
@@TheEclecticBeard You might also enjoy Line of Duty, something I'm rewatching at the moment. It's a British show. There might be an American version I'm not sure but I'm speaking of the British one. It's not a comedy buy it is enjoyable and even gripping.
He was brutal live. You wouldn’t get up for a piss and not regret it
He was known as a "BLUE" comedian meaning his shows were for adults only. This was the 70s/80s comedy was real then - no political correctness. Times have changed and this would not get air time these days.
6:03 Can anybody explain the cat joke?
The last holiday my father had, he and my mother went to a club to see a variety show - singers, dancers, comedians etc - you know the drill.. Anyhow, the comedian is half way through his act and my dad has to go pee - so he stands up and the comedian says "Fuck me, Bernard Manning's in the house!"
My dad was almost a doppelganger for Manning. They had the same build, same hair style (almost), quite similar facially - though I would say my dad was a little bit more attractive at that age!
They both spoke their mind and weren't afraid to use more colourful language shall we say... :D
I just wish that my old man was £10 behind Manning when he (my father) died... that way I wouldn't be a skint bastard... hahaha.
A Yankee is the name of a bet where you pick four predictions.
Arthur asked
Tommy cooper
Eric morecambe
I’ve got you in a Yankee
Got it?
Very strong Manc/Lancaster accent. Was a funny man in the 70's/80's but lost favor when being pc became the way. Was still a racist until he died.
Bernard manning the goat 🐐
That's Bernard for you he's always been the same. Doesn't mind his P's & Q's!
i was honestly never a fan of his, but he owned a club about a ten minute drive from where i live, the embassy club, my mum went to see him once with some friends, one thing i remember, or was told about him was he was one of those comedians that if you got up to go somewhere during his time on stage you were going to get picked on by him, that night my mum went one of her friends who has a slight disability really not to visit the ladies but wouldnt move until he finished for fear of being targeted by him.
He loved his Mum.
Bernard Manning from my home City, Manchester North west of England old school comedian, North of England are tough side of England with a better home comedy
I had one of the best nights of my life watching bernard at the notts county ground Nottingham England before he came on there was a stripper and she was beautiful and when her act had finished she came over and sat on my chair and watched the rest of the show and i being about 20 years old what a night
French letter was known as a condom for some reason?!he put it on backwards.so instead of cunning he went
A French letter is a condom. He put it on backwards and WENT instead of Came!
He is from Manchester. We used to go to his club, we laughed so much our stomach ached and next day we hated ourselves for laughing at his crass, crude, racist, material!
