I'm wondering how many outside the UK could keep up?. This man is so talented, a clever writer, and a comic genius (and don't get me started on his beautiful hair :) )
I'd love to know if he is in anything, if just to see that gorgeous hair lying about when he plays a corpse. However, I'm hoping for a more prominent role.
As someone who only speaks English as a second language and just adopts whatever accent I hear in the series I'm watching, I relate very much to O'Reilly
As someone who only speaks English as a language, I think and read in whatever accent I've most recently listened to. This comment is being dictated by ABK.
As a fellow ginger 'distractingly unattractive' is one of the nicest descriptions I've ever had. Now, back to researching tax avoidance via changes in ones sexual orientation.
Loved it! Next we need "Murder on the Orient Express, stopping all stations to Clayton then running express to South Yarra and terminating at the Orient."
Everyone is talking about wirral's accent, but I can't even get past how impressive it is that ABK can do so many accents so cleanly that I couldn't even tell which was real without knowing
The raven: "How could I have stabbed him? The only hand I've available is shoved up my arse to move my beak!" - This put me back to point zero in my investigations! 🐧
"He could be anywhere: the bread maze, the vegetable circus, the sex canoe..." "Where will you look for Whirral: the bread maze, the vegetable circus, or the *potting shed* ?" That was amazing. I guess he learned his lesson after "Nip Titley"
Well, if he'd offered "sex canoe" as a choice, he could have saved himself the waiting time and just start recording the "you voted for _the sex canoe_ " bit.
I love how this basically follows the formula of an Agatha Christie Murder Mystery, including the bit with how the time is always included as a red herring.
I can't remember the last time I had the patience for an 18 minute UA-cam video. This was a perfect parody of Agatha Christie and I loved the introduction of the raven at the end, it's absolutely something she would have done. If only I could have been amongst the other Nip Titleys for this.
“I can’t go back inside!” Reminds me of something my dad recommended saying to get out of a fight, “Well, all right but just so you know - I’m not afraid to go back to prison...”
Sleuthard of the Yard would've solved this in half the time. And I was honestly expecting the whole thing to be a joke with a random ending like Alan the Raven having done it. But the fact that this is hilarious and has legitimate clues and mystery makes it even better! Please do more of these! Here's hoping for some good business for Mr. Croup.
I know this took a lot of work, but please make another one sometime. This was extremely well done. I am picky about my murder mysteries and their solvability and the integrity of the information provided. You did great.
This is brilliantly done! I’m so happy to see a longer video from you! I had better luck guessing what everyone else chose than I did with picking the right person, but it was so much fun! 😄
@@mamacrochets Oh yeah! Considering the Emus kind of won that war IRL, I can only imagine the fallout from such a ridiculous trade debacle. A bad business. Either way, feathered hats for everyone.
That's brilliant. I'm just discovering you and it's a gem. I laughed so much I actually couldn't pay attention to any detail. With the next one I'll promise more sobriety from my part.
My vocabulary expanded because I had to look up some words that I didn't know prior to this. I learned something new, and this vid is now a thousand times funnier. Brilliant!
"WHOOPS! That's my kidney!" Dude...you are brilliant and the epitome of talent and humor-great humor, to be precise. In order to appreciate your efforts and skills, you actually have to have usable brain matter. You have a new and lifelong fan.
Absolutely delightful. Just so clever. Many of the jokes are quite subtle. My favorite is the Suppository. I assume with this the Brits use this word to mean the same thing Americans do. One can only imagine the ASSanine assumptions one might make while using the Suppository ;) all the characters are delightful. Especially loved Wirral and how pure he is. Also the salt and vinegar seam. Very Pratchettesque.
I thought it was a roll of bread. Imagine my surprise when he whipped out a zucchini... That's right, England! I said ZUCCHINI! And his purple EGG-SHAPED friend is called an EGGplant.
I just saw this, and this finally pushed me over the edge to sending you a Ko-Fi or two. I'm sorry for not sending some your way earlier, ABK, you deserve all those brews.
During the great Coronavirus kerfuffle of *2021* I finally realized that instead of rewatching 18 of your minute long bits, I could give this one a try. Great humor, amazing costumes, incredible accents and such a fun script. I hope you'll do another one. Or even better, that you'll get a well payed streaming gig for those brilliant videos you do. Fun fact: Just like with every "real" crime show or book, I had the right suspect. Just with the wrong/or sometimes no evidence to back it up. Guess I'm not advanced enough to distinguish between British and American spelling. Anyways, Kudos and thanks for entertaining me 💐
I only recently found you, but you are superbly silly and hilarious! Also, you have the loveliest ginger locks I've ever seen, and I lived next to an all red haired family of 9 once!
This is, I dare to say, a very tasteful Monthy Pythonesque approach and an extremely well thought through for that matter. I gather the old gang would have eagarly imbibed your resources and amalgamated you into their troop. To your health, sir! ☕
Iv lived in Quebec, and you see French-Canadians have a very "special" way of explaining things, that are at best a colorful story you better sit down to listen to.
You know, I hear that when you order one of those in a public house, they're now required by law to include a paper napkin with contact information for local therapists and recovery hostels who are prepared to assist you later that same evening.
Just found this video and youtube channel. This is the funniest whodidit. This was genuinely really fun I made a whole little google doc with notes on what everyone said and a rough timeline trying to figure it out haha. This was fun to watch! The humor is great.
"and if you didn't guess correctly, don't worry, innocent people are convicted every day and the guilty walk free." Ouch, I feel called out.
it nicely describes 90% of people on the planet, the other 10 % are the politicians.

Yes that was funny.
According to my clock, it’s 12:00, then time ceases to exist, then it’s 12:00 again, then time stops, and so on…
"Like an orphan... dropped into a cooling tower... to see what would happen" I could see that line being spoken by GLaDOS from Portal.
GLaD I'm not the only one!
Just read this in GLaDOS voice. It totally fits.
Yeeeeeeeeees!!
You must reaally love to test
"If I want nonsense I'll call up the clown factory and order in bulk" is such an incredible line.
"Antique Letter opener in the shape of a massive knife". Nearly choked on my beer. legend.
Wirral's constant accent changes had me in hysterics. The whole thing is absolutely brilliant!
It's just occurred to me there's an element of Paul McCartney in him.....its him!
I lost track of how many accents were in there... Scots, Yorkshire, Cockney, West Country, Aussie, and I don't even KNOW what else
Bonza!
I was so confused.
I'm wondering how many outside the UK could keep up?. This man is so talented, a clever writer, and a comic genius (and don't get me started on his beautiful hair :) )
"The people chose Detective Nip Titley...obviously."
Yes indeed, let's all _pretend_ there was an actual choice about that...( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Obviously.
It was a wise decision.
That was uncanny O.O
Haha this was brilliant. I'm not on twitter so it's great to see it compiled on here. Becoming a lesbian for tax purposes made me lol
I'm glad you found out about an important tax loophole.
@@ABeckettKing I wish I was a lesbian.
Does this tax loophole also work for gay guys?
I'm also attracted by girls, does that also count?

God I hope this guy's career blows up. He's too charming for just UA-cam.
I'd love to know if he is in anything, if just to see that gorgeous hair lying about when he plays a corpse. However, I'm hoping for a more prominent role.
He also did a podcast called the Loremen. It's, ah, a ridiculous paranormal/history podcast.

lotta suppositions in this suppository
Supposedly...
Shit. I didn't catch the joke until I saw it written.
"i lost it to a jaguar... or was it an audi...?" i lost it there... high quality content man :D
"I remember the time exactly... because I always remember everything exactly"
I think it was a Puma, Ford Puma.
Mirral's constantly shifting accent is wonderful
Honestly I was in pain from laughing in Mirrals long segment, the accent shifting mid sentence was amazing.
so brilliant, I was in stitches
Ay up our kid, you're avin a larf
I have just realised that his name is Wirral
@@lindalangart are you 'avin a turkish?

We need a whole new batch of orphans! The old ones are ... getting weird.
I had my eye on that raven Allen long before he was introduced. I haven't seen the end because I do not need to, this has avian written all over it.
Well, this is the country that birthed "the Birds" after all! I'll never trust those flying rats, i'll say.
Frinking genius. The density of jokes in this is off the charts.
In case any one reading these comments doesn't already know, ABK has a highly entertaining podcast entitled Loremen. Hilarious!

"Where will you look for Whirral: the bread maze, the vegetable circus, or the *potting shed* ?"
That was amazing. I guess he learned his lesson after "Nip Titley"
I'm still laughing at 'potting shed'. Glorious.
Pretty sure, before given the choice, everyone shouted "SEX CANOE!" just like I did. Obviously.
Well, if he'd offered "sex canoe" as a choice, he could have saved himself the waiting time and just start recording the "you voted for _the sex canoe_ " bit.
Obviously the sex canoe is stored in the potting shed
I love how this basically follows the formula of an Agatha Christie Murder Mystery, including the bit with how the time is always included as a red herring.

Love how he went through every country accent because it's always some generic "working class" person
"I believe orphans could be eradicated within our lifetime" made me snort laugh

"With the intention of becoming a lesbian for tax purposes" what a fucking qoute 👌
Where does it say that?
@@PresidentGravy Sentence starts at 2:06
It really should have been obvious that
the psychopath carrying out lethal experiments on orphans was the killer lmao.
The wife with nine dead exes was a good bet too, and she didn't do it
Yeah, in hindsight I probably should’ve guessed the orphan-torturer was also capable of murder
It's always the ones you least suspect!
That’s why I guessed Fanny!
The butler was there... And he had an evil eye patch! How could anyone NOT suspect him?
Alan the raven has already been in prison? Hmmmmm, how suspicious!

Wow y’all really just let me sit here for weeks with “self ability” instead of solvability huh
I had the utmost faith in your self ability, and look at that, you fixed it yourself.
THIS IS SO AWESOME
I haven't sat through 18 mins of a YT vid feeling absorbed the entire time for a long while!!
PLEASE MAKE MORE
An entertaining compiled together as it was pieced together over on Twitter. Again, well done.
Thanks, Shawn!
This man should be cast as the most beautiful Viking ever or something.
Pointless aside, but apparently when the vikings arrived they had a reputation for their care of their hair and personal hygiene.
