On The Buses was a fantastic show in the 60’s & 70’s. It was brilliant. Blakey was the bus inspector who had to keep the buses running on time & to deal with the ‘thorns in his side’ Stan (the driver) & Jack (the bus conductor). As well as the long running tv show, there were 3 films made in the 70’s.
@@poppypalais3108 Depends on your perspective on what's 'unpleasant' - personally this woke age has generated an unpleasantness on a level all of it's own.
Happy Valley......once you start the 3 series you will never be able to stop!! Award winning. They even delayed the last series until the young actor grew to the correct age....they didn't want to cast a lookalike. By far the best police drama I have ever seen!!!!!!
Shetland is a good show, in a great setting….very watchable. Another British show that you will get addicted to is “Doc Martin” about a grumpy GP in a beautiful Cornish coastal village….he is very stuck up with a superior attitude but you can’t help but laugh along with him because he is so awkward. Played by Martin Clunes…I guarantee that you watch the whole box set…quality British tv.
Everyone has said about On The Buses so here is a few others you/Micky mentioned: - First Dates: People matched up for a date at a restaurant. It films them arriving, the date and then a followup on if they would do a second date etc. It can be very awkward, sometimes people have natural chemistry - and sometimes you get older people go on and it's sweet. - I'm a Celebrity: Celebrities (usually not A-listers) are put into a jungle/remote environment together to socialise and complete tasks (like eating bugs) and then the public slowly votes off members they do not like each week. - Who Do You Think You Are: Celebs look into their past family tree and people help discover their past. Some nice, often highlighting bad things though. These shows have had US equivalents to varying degrees of success.
I just cannot resist watching Micky & absolutely love to see the reaction from our American cousin's when they are testing out our British humour. I was at school with Micky and so proud of seeing how well he has done coming from the background we all shared. Apart from Micky we also had a famous boxer in our class, Michael Watson, whose career was sadly cut so short by his brain injury. So with both Micky's and having the British gangsters " The Kray Twins " attend our school you get an idea of that academic achievements were not exactly top of the list for our teachers trying to control feral east end boys.
@@paulhanson5164 If memory serves me right Gary Hutton had a claw ( 80% it was him )..... two pincer hooks instead of a right hand... Would scare the shit out of 1st 2nd yrs in the playgrounds and was a miserable c@nt because our school was unforgiving towards his claw. I would never drive the van, but happily buy whatever dropped off or was found in the van.
You like Shetland! I'm on Shetland right now on holiday!! I don't know if its available but if it is, have a look at DETECTORISTS - very well written, subtle British humour.
On The Buses was a huge sitcom back in the 70s, one of those shows that for a generation becomes a part of the national psyche, but it hasn't aged well. What you might find on Britbox is a classic from that era that has aged well and many regard as the greatest ever sitcom, its called Porridge.
Loved porridge. And rather unusually, the movie they made was great too. Not always the case with sitcoms. One Foot in the Grave was another good movie effort from a sitcom.
Now living in the US I've never recommended a Carry On to any of my American friends. Just always assumed it would be too 'British'. Bit like Only Fools.
@@renejean2523 at one point it would have been. I think since the take off of youtube etc Americans have realised theres other countries in the world 😄 and some, especially British humour/entertainment is second to none 👌🏻
@@ksmith3997 Good point. The scope of their appreciation has moved on from Keeping Up Appearances, Are You Being Served, and Benny Hill. Still like to see what Americans would make of Del Boy's Rhyming slang and Frenchisms!
_On The Buses_ is classic, a little before my time (69-73) as a Gen Xer, but I was still able to catch the reference as it was still shown either in re runs or in comedy compilations throughout the 80's. Blakey was unforgettable. Just like Rigsby from another classic of around the same era _Rising Damp._ Though, my heart belongs to Albert Steptoe from _Steptoe and Son_ if we're allowed to go back that far!
Leonard Rossiter *was* that show really. Absolutely brilliant. And the onstage chemistry and performances in Steptoe were incredible. All comedic acting at its best.
@@renejean2523 It was, considering Harry H Corbett apparently absolutely loathed and despised Wilfred Bramble with a passion and utterly refused to even speak to him when they werent actually filming the episodes.
‘On the Buses’ - British 60s/70s working class sitcom with a distinctive character called Blakey who’s thing was making the odd noise Micky Flanagan made a few times. The kid impersonating that character instantly tells his mum he’s been watching that program.
Blakey from On The Buses is the *only* impression I've ever been able to do well. However, now living in America I don't get many opportunities to show it off. Never, in fact. "Aaah gawd, Butler. I 'ate you. I 'ate you so much, Butler. Aaaah. Go on you two...get that bus ahht!" I don't bother with my Frank Spencer either.
Seriously, you should see, "Naked Attraction," we've had the show over here for about 9 years and I still end up thinking, "What is this?" "No don't turn it off, I want to see how mental this is going to get." 😁😅🤣
If you watched on the Buses you would of laughed at Micky's impression of Blakey who Played a Bus Inspector who did a strange laugh and facial impressions, The clip showed Blakey in the Audience laughing.
'On The Buses' was a British sitcom from the 1970s, Butler was the bus driver and Blakey the bus garage inspector and if you ever asked a Brit for a Blakey impersonation he'd say (whilst pointing) "I hate you Butler!"................yeh really deep stuff, I just watched an episode and it hasn't aged well.
I agree. Not many of them do age well. Mind you, I was a young teenager so I was more easily pleased back then. I think Fawlty Towers and Dad's Army are a couple that have aged better than most.
I just HAVE to be honest here, I watch a lot of TV as I am almost 90 years of age, and there only few Americans who "Get" our humour. But I have two or three posts from the USA which feature some of my favourite contributors and this couple are right up there with my all time Faves. They are a simply terrific couple and I have not been disappointed with a single thing that they have posted. Bye the way, I am NOT anti-American, I spent almost six years living and working in the USA, and almost every minute of that time was pleasurable and enjoyable. Keep your posts coming, and help to make this old man very happy.
Britbox recommendations are: Phoenix Nights starring Peter Kay. (Very very funny show) Max and Paddy also starring Peter Kay. The Two Ronnies. Starring Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett. Classic 70's and 80's BBC sketch show. My Family, a BBC sitcom Starring Robert Lindsay and Zoe Wannamaker. At one time Britain's most popular sitcom. BBC classic family TV 'Allo 'Allo! Starring Gorden Kaye. Set in Occupied France with French cafe Owner Rene trying to keep the peace with the Nazi officer customers and the French Resistance. BBC classic family TV. Then the British favourite sit com Only Fools and Horse from the BBC and still today regarded as the best sitcom the UK made. Starring David Jason. As long as you can understand some British culture you'll get the references if not its not a problem.
Vera and Magpie Murders are both good shows - Vera is set in Northumberland, so interesting accents. Magpie Murders is relatively new, and I thought very stylish in the 'Agatha Christie mode' Love watching your reactions - keep it up 😁
Interesting fact or boring fact On the buses was a popular tv show and the main character in it was called Stan Butler (Reg Varney ) and he was asked to use the very first ATM to draw money out I think 1967 at Barclays Bank in Enfield London Blakey was his nemesis who would always say Get that bus out Butler.
It was poor compared to UK Raw and European Blue Review. Sexecetera, Red Show Diaries, Outback Stripper, Naked Jungle, Bizarre, Eurotrash, the various films, and all the other porn related shows on Channel 4, Channel 5, Bravo & Men & Motors, were nothing compared to those two, as they were practically hardcore.
Hi In answering your question. On The Buses, was a late 1960's / 1970's British SITCOM. It was of its time with regards to attitudes, and falls into the categories of; cheeky, cheerful, and possibly a cheesy time capsule. The two central characters are Stan Butler & Jack Harper, Bus driver & Ticket Conductor respectively. Their collective nemesis took the form of the Bus Depot Inspector, Cyril Blakey. Cyrillic Blakey looked & acted like a little Hitler, and with all the crazy capers that Stan & Jack got entangled with, every episode invited you into their world & the antics they got up to, whilst all the time, Blakey attempting to catch them out. Kind regards Robert
The difference today is the viewer subscribes to their preferences when it comes to content, There’s nothing funnier than watching a bloody good reaction blog ,,,, other peoples reactions to content is the new stress release,,,, I for one fall about laughing at the expressions on your faces at the British comedy with no filter. If anything,,,it reminds us of just how edited we’ve allowed ourselves to become. Keep up your hilarious reactions,,,,,should be on prescription 👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤
On the Buses was a British comedy that ran from the late 60s to early 70s. 'Blakey' was an inspector always trying to catch the drivers and conductors out for some malarky or shennigans. Wouldn't age particularly well now some 50 years later.
My brother used to pick up his grandkids after school and look after them for a couple of hours when they were quite little. Sometimes on the way home he would pop into the supermarket cafe and they would have doughnuts and a drink as a treat. Now their mum would not necessarily be best best pleased by this, as she would be making them dinner later and wouldn't want their appetites spoilt. So he would tell them not to mention it to their mum This attempt at secrecy was somewhat spoiled by the youngest grandkid saying to his mum, for no apparent reason "we didn't have chocolate doughnuts". Fortunately she saw the funny side and also remembered the pleasure of having secret treats with her granddad.
Feel sorry for jodi a bit lol...she looks like sombody is tormenting her for having perfectly normal natural human reactions lol...let it out sista its all gravy life aint all a painting 😂 we aint judging ya..pop too U.K for a bit we put you back on track mate 😂....thanks vids you two cheer me up ✌
On the Buses was a 70s sitcom about people who worked... on the buses. It wasn't the greatest show even at the time and it hasn't aged well. It was very popular though. However this was probably due to the fact that, back then, entertainment consisted of 3 channels, only really 2 if you were looking for light entertainment, and the local pub. Put anything on in prime-time, especially on Friday or Saturday early evening, and you'd be guaranteed an audience that the most popular shows of today could only dream of. I personally wouldn't recommend On the Buses but what do I know? Taste is subjective. You may love it. :)
Entertainment was only that, just years after we won The World Cup and the Nation was football crazy and the attendances went thru' the roof and British films and THe Theatre were at their peak. Plus Horse and Greyhound Racing was massive then. London, alone,had 24 Greyhound Stadiums. Now it has.......NONE..
On the busses was supposed to be a comedy show about a bus depot in London it wasn't very good, Blakey was a inspector and was one of the main characters.
If you want to look for a new comedian, Frankie Boyle, he’s Scottish comedian who is Savage when he talks to the audience at the beginning of his shows. Another Scottish comedian Kevin Bridges.
On the buses was a UK comedy series based around 2 bus drivers and their inspector boss. Not sure it'd be very pc in today's world 50 years since it last aired!
Forgive my abruptness... Last I heard the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics had dissolved, and since when was the UK even a part of it? Fuck Political Correctness, a Soviet invention. I have an aversion even to the mere mention of _pc,_ even as an abbreviation. The ONLY good PC is one with a CPU, GPU and RAM. Political Correctness needs to die with its creators and be never allowed to taint human existence forever more.
As soon as the hand covers the mouth you Jodi doesn't approve, then the shaking of the of the head followed by 'no no no'! another classic cringe video Jodi thanks for making me laugh so much from your no1 scottish fan lol!
Dont know if you get this where you are but TABOO with Tom Hardy is worth a view , its a couple of years old but very very good and a English cop series called Happy Valley is also excellent and Killing Eve . So three of my favs if like the TV
I recomend a sitcom called Gimme Gimme Gimme starring Kathy Burke. It was the last thing she did in front of the camera before going behind the camera to produce and direct. 3 series, siries 1 episode 1 " Who's that boy"? So funny. Good luck
Death in Paradise is good and they've kept it going throughout changes to the main cast, but the ITV crime dramas are good also, Midsomer Murders and Vera are my favourites. Good for watching but not reacting I would say.
You should watch #AlanBastard (The New Statesman with Rik Mayall). You'll see Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie (House). But also get into Black Adder (Mr Ben).
Love you to , don’t forget to have a watch of Sean lock , very very clever and dry , the tiger who went for a pint is hilarious, you teachers will love it
Guys, I hope you will get to do another brilliant British stand up called Romesh Ranganathan. He has the best dead pan delivery ever. A huge British household name. He is on TV everywhere in the UK and he is really loved but yes very funny. His stand up at the apollo was fantastic
Carry on movie's are awesome on the buses just brilliant open all hours and love thy neighbor are another great classic program and all available on UA-cam to watch
Dependent on your humour, try "Red Dwarf", "The Brittas Empire", "Allo Allo"... Some golden oldies "Blake's 7", ""Goodnight Sweetheart", "The Champions" (1968), "Monarch of the Glen", "Pie in the Sky" Sci-Fi "Primeval" British remakes of American shows your "Whose the Boss" is our "The Upper Hand" Any Cary Grant film - stretching the British connection but he was British. Any Maureen O'Hara film again Irish born so British.
lol Are you claiming the Irish to be, for all intents and purposes, British? They'll be thrilled. But yes, 'Goodnight Sweetheart' was so beautifully done and so original. Loved that show.
'It Ain't Half Hot Mum', ‘Kenny Everett Video Show’ , 'On the Buses' all disowned now because of political correctness, but still absolutely hilarious.
On the Buses TV show is based on a driver and bus conductor working on a double decker bus in London. Stan the driver and Jack the bus conductor were lazy and very much trying everything at work to get way with using the bus for their own uses and or taking their supervisor Blakeys for a mug. Blakey hated Stan and Jack because he always suspected they were taking him for a mug, usually resulting in Blakey being involved at the wrong end of a situation where Stan and Jack set the situation for themselves. Its a show based on working class Brits 20 years after the war and Blakey looks like Hitler. So the show was very popular and many people over 40 watched it as aired or on repeats on TV. I have found out the show is popular in Poland and other places worldwide.
On my god soooo many good series to watch on there. Here's a few A touch of frost Jonathan creek My family Thin blue line One foot in the grave Open all hours Good life Yes minister Yes prime minister

Hi
In answering your question.
On The Buses, was a late 1960's / 1970's British SITCOM. It was of its time with regards to attitudes, and falls into the categories of; cheeky, cheerful, and possibly a cheesy time capsule.
The two central characters are Stan Butler & Jack Harper, Bus driver & Ticket Conductor respectively. Their collective nemesis took the form of the Bus Depot Inspector, Cyril Blakey.
Cyrillic Blakey looked & acted like a little Hitler, and with all the crazy capers that Stan & Jack got entangled with, every episode invited you into their world & the antics they got up to, whilst all the time, Blakey attempting to catch them out.
Kind regards

Beyond Paradise is a spin off from Death In Paradise

Asking for a friend.
@@smudge8464 the clothes I wear in this video is how I dress mostly. I don’t take my clothes too seriously.
Haha i was only kidding.
Married parental life means a certain dress sense,i get it lol
This one should have been called , Mickey Flan-again , given or the bake off content.
Death in Paradise is good and they've kept it going throughout changes to the main cast, but the ITV crime dramas are good also, Midsomer Murders and Vera are my favourites. Good for watching but not reacting I would say.
Love Death in Paradise. Normally don't watch those light, formulaic shows, but that one is very enjoyable. The scenery is beautiful too.
Blakey had a funny laugh. that was what he was imitating.
Death in paradise is awesome😂
Auf Weidersehen Pet if its on Britbox 👍Its English but you may need to watch it with subtitles turned on if you struggle with accents 🤣🤣
Love your videos.
BRITBOX recommendation: ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES.
Classic.
I don't know if Mock the week is on Mock the Week is on Britbox but it's brilliant
There are full episodes of on the buses on UA-cam.
Bus driver in rhe series Reg Varney was the first man in Britain to use a bank ATM
You should watch #AlanBastard (The New Statesman with Rik Mayall). You'll see Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie (House). But also get into Black Adder (Mr Ben).
Love you to , don’t forget to have a watch of Sean lock , very very clever and dry , the tiger who went for a pint is hilarious, you teachers will love it
If you love love, naked attraction is for you.
That blakey impression 😂😂😂😂😂 love on the buses
Great channel 👍🇬🇧
Check out Jack dee and omid djalili. Two old school forgotten comedy masters
I know u know. What a show
On the buses was brilliant....interesting but useless fact for you....stan opened the first cashpoint/hole in the wall ...in the uk
The inbetweeners is a good British comedy
Guys, I hope you will get to do another brilliant British stand up called Romesh Ranganathan. He has the best dead pan delivery ever. A huge British household name. He is on TV everywhere in the UK and he is really loved but yes very funny. His stand up at the apollo was fantastic
Yes Romesh is great, he has been in a lot of TV shows too so should be plenty on UA-cam.
Way too Woke.
Carry on movie's are awesome on the buses just brilliant open all hours and love thy neighbor are another great classic program and all available on UA-cam to watch
#Recommend.. Terry & June 🙂
Dependent on your humour, try "Red Dwarf", "The Brittas Empire", "Allo Allo"...
Some golden oldies "Blake's 7", ""Goodnight Sweetheart", "The Champions" (1968), "Monarch of the Glen", "Pie in the Sky"
Sci-Fi "Primeval"
British remakes of American shows your "Whose the Boss" is our "The Upper Hand"
Any Cary Grant film - stretching the British connection but he was British.
Any Maureen O'Hara film again Irish born so British.
(the Wolves used in Monarch of the Glen were from our Conservation Trust, from just before I became a Handler though so I never got to go there)
@@grabtharshammer Aren't you jumping seasons there? I'm just now realising how little I remember of it myself.
lol Are you claiming the Irish to be, for all intents and purposes, British? They'll be thrilled.
But yes, 'Goodnight Sweetheart' was so beautifully done and so original. Loved that show.
@@renejean2523 Your right I mixed up Dublin with Belfast...
We had a TV show where two strangers go into a cube and have sex and I can't even remember the point of it that's how low tv in England has got 😂
It's called Sex Box, which Micky named and was talking about.
@@danielgardecki1046 well that's embarrassing 🤣
Death in paradise is the boss
very nice!! thx
Check out The League of Gentlemen "You're My Wife Now". Papa Lazaru is fantastic.
Search ... On The Busses Skid Test
'It Ain't Half Hot Mum', ‘Kenny Everett Video Show’ , 'On the Buses' all disowned now because of political correctness, but still absolutely hilarious.
Brit box . Happy Valley. Good watch . Nothing happy about it tho 😂😂😂.
Shetland wont be the same without Douglas Henshall (Jimmy Perez)
James Acaster on Wilty is funny just Good as Bob Mortimer
On the buses is a must watch 😆
If you have Britbox, On the Buses should be on there. It is on our version... but I don't know if your Britbox is the same as ours.
On the Buses TV show is based on a driver and bus conductor working on a double decker bus in London.
Stan the driver and Jack the bus conductor were lazy and very much trying everything at work to get way with using the bus for their own uses and or taking their supervisor Blakeys for a mug. Blakey hated Stan and Jack because he always suspected they were taking him for a mug, usually resulting in Blakey being involved at the wrong end of a situation where Stan and Jack set the situation for themselves.
Its a show based on working class Brits 20 years after the war and Blakey looks like Hitler. So the show was very popular and many people over 40 watched it as aired or on repeats on TV.
I have found out the show is popular in Poland and other places worldwide.
Death in paradise spin off 'beyond paradise'.
stephen lewis in the audience?
Alan Partridge
On my god soooo many good series to watch on there.
Here's a few
A touch of frost
Jonathan creek
My family
Thin blue line
One foot in the grave
Open all hours
Good life
Yes minister
Yes prime minister
Happy valley brill
Micky had a short career as a teacher
You need to go down the Karl Pilkington rabbit hole. Start with 'An Idiot Abroad'. You will not be disappointed.
I would suggest 'Brassed off'. A movie about a coal miner's brass band.
You might need subtitles though, and a huge amount of tissues. ???????.
Death in paradise.. Nice...
mary berry wouldnt use brownie mix shes in her mid 80s
Try only fools and horses, also yes minister/yes prime minister both great bbc comedies.
Outnumbered and my family are great shows
Deli belly is a good one
