I love the Liverpool accent as well

If you can watch the whole thing it would be amazing

I was always very good at doing accents and capital cities when I was at school. Didn't get me very far in life

there is no East Anglian accent, there is Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridge and Essex accents and are the counties that make up East Anglia, i think she was terrible at all the accents

I'd love to see you trying even only the first episode, they cram so much into 20 mins, if only for poor Ricky's exasperation at Karl's space launch story

Yes, she is very talented. See *The Irish Jockey* by Lee Mack for Northern Irish: ua-cam.com/video/LUE3IiYyJSs/v-deo.html

Thandi................She did this well and I think this is quite old. Around 10 years ago,a young lad(then) did 67 Accents,many of them British so far more than this video. "The English Language in 38 Accents and 29 Random Voices"....he is sweary but very good:)

Karl was the producer of the radio show. He made them laugh so much that they made him join them on air.

I'm from Glasgow and there are plenty of variations in our accent, like between posher West End and broader East End, or between older and more traditional Glasgow speakers and the younger generation who have been influenced by English and American phrasing, expressions and intonation. I think it's the only part of the UK where "I am" comes out as "Am ur" (a sort of "am-are" Glasgow-ified). "Aye am ur" means "Oh yes I am" and "Naw yer no" means "Oh no, you're not" and the fight can then begin. I defy anyone from south of the border to understand that particular little conversational interchange, and as for Aussies, Canadians and Americans... good luck! Thandi, your knowledge and appreciation of English accents and geography is better than most Brits.

I'm Somerset born n bred, and I personally find the Sam Gamgee accent quite offensive... It's cultural appropriation I tell you (!)

I thought she did pretty good. Let’s hear your Yorkshire accent Thandi!😁

I've heard this a billion times, but it was nice to rewatch it with you Thandi! Still funny x

❤ girlfriend was shocked and upset when we saw the play 30 years ago. and it was her idea.

My favourite comedian, thanks for reacting to him!

Hi Thandi, I would increase your volume a bit.

"That" was a documentary on the novelist and playwright Samuel Beckett, famous in the 1950s for his dark, sparse and nihilistic representations of life in plays like Waiting for Godot and Krapp's Last Tape. Stewart Lee would certainly know of his work, so I was wondering if the two extracts were in fact connected in some way.

So, you haven't heard of either Andrew Lloyd Webber OR Samuel Beckett? No woder you were lost, lol. Andrew Lloyd Webber's arguably the most successful writer and producer of Stage Musicals of all-time. He's won endless awards and is responsible for such musicals as Evita, Cats, Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph and His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat and The Phantom of the Opera. His work is extremely popular and commercially successful but he's something of a love/hate figure. Samuel Becket is widely regarded as on of the greatest playwrights of all-time. His work is highly cerebral. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Stewart was referring to a truly dreadful Saturday night talent show, where Andrew Lloyd Webber was looking for a lead to star in a new West End run of his musical, 'Joseph and His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat'. Originally written as a children's musical and frequently performed in schools, it has also had major success in major theatres around the World. The final section was Sttewart imagining if the same gaudy talent show format had been used to cast people for Beckett's seminal work, "Waiting for Godot". :)

Warm Up Crowd Control Sheffield is a must watch

Hey I'm another South African living in the UK. Love your reactions and comments on what life in the UK is like

There's that celebrity cliche... "I'm NOTHING without my audience"... I think it's ESPECIALLY true of Stewart Lee... He THRIVES on a BAD audience! If everyone understood him, his set would be about 10 minutes long (and consist mainly of him saying "Rod Liddle" over and over and over and over....)

Stewart loves to focus on negative reactions. That was his wife:)

Hi Thandi To demonstrate how MASSIVE Robbie Williams is "Robbie Williams-ANGELS-Live @ Knebworth" and play to the end and watch his ovation from 100,000 people.

The woman who looked upset was his wife at the time (bridget christie)

Yup that woman in the audience, expression on her face which said "I thought we were seeing Michael McIntyre!"

I think that woman (5:54) was Bridget Christie, Stewart Lee's wife. Possibly pretending to be unamused for the recording

Not a Robbie Williams fan but he took a Queen song that was so big it "should never be covered" and arguably made his version bigger than the original.

I suspect I would be in team F

I'm not sure about this guy's pronunciation, they could well be genuine. I've seen many Americans make the same mistakes. He also seems to have a slight speech impediment, pronouncing world as reald and some other things.. Well done on correcting the errors, although I'm sad to report you had one of your own 😂. Its Kirkoddy, with the stress on the second syllable. Great reaction as always, thanks 😊

I love your tiny, little, Lilliputian microphone!

I think the train you're thinking of is called "The Flying Scotsman". It's the most famous locomotive in Britain (and possibly the world). It used to be the train that ran the high speed service between London and Edinburgh during the golden age of steam railways. It's mainly a museum piece nowadays but does do tours on railways around Britain.

I've seen that video a few times, makes a change for the reactor to correct his mispronouncments 😂 good work 😊

Thandi just so you know you are pronouncing Edinburgh and Glasgow correctly. I've found that a few Americans have issues pronouncing the names of some British cities and counties.

If they did a reality TV elimination show to cast a Samuel Beckett play, it would fully justify the BBC license-fee for pretentious tossers like me. As people pointed out below, the early Comedy Vehicle episodes had occasional sketches. Lee does the usual schtick of assuming the audience knows what he’s talking about, and if people don’t he berates them for being philistines. It’s a lovely comic device - look up a video called The Audience is the Problem, which explores Lee’s form of postmodern anti-comedy. Keep up your good work Thandi!

The sketch was the protentious punchline duh

You do have the most beautiful smile, though. But I think I'd be way too embarrassed to tell you that in person.

I am guessing you aren't familiar with the brilliant and somehow always haggard playwright Samuel Becket. It would be fun to see you react to one of his plays.

I am just waiting for someone to do a Phd regarding Fawlty Towers. Every sentence is magical.

(I hoped that you got the invented gravity joke.)

(You have all the information in the texts on the screen.)

What? People don't want to know how bad my life is when they ask me "how are you?" So that's why they don't ever talk to me again

Why do you laugh before the funny bits is there a delay on the video

I could hardly hear that Thandi
