    He's very good and I hope you do more. Two of the most under reacted videos of his that I enjoy are " All jobs are terrible" and "What every parent should know."

    Try - Al Murray - "nations of the world" - or Al murray "explains the Euro crisis" - The Pub Landlord will "enlighten" you with his unique take on these topics!

    If you major in history, you learn lots of dates.
    And he's practiced his answer to EVERY SINGLE country.

    He stood for election to be a member of parliament. He did a Ted Talk afterwards (as himself not the pub landlord) it is worth watching and will give you an insight to how British elections work. I think there is video on youtube, should be one on Ted Talks page.

    My favourite Al Murray piece is "how bacon proves the existence of God".

    It's worthwhile watching and listening to Sabaton - the rock group - their music and songs tell stories from history too .

    Al Murray's road to Berlin is a good one (it's a straight documentary series)
    He did a show about Germany too but I can't remember what it's called.

    Al Murray is a funny and knowledgeable guy but he knows the British suffered some humiliating defeats in the Middle East. They were driven out of Palestine in 1948 and Egypt in 1956 by the Suez crisis.

    Hey, thanks for being open-minded. He is playing a character but he does happen to be very knowledgeable with regard to history….

    I think he mixed up Uganda with another country... Maybe Burkina Faso too.... I don't think either were ever colonised by Germany... Uganda was a British protectorate or something at one point, I think... Burkina Fasp was a French one... Assuming he prepared something for every country though, I can't really hate on him for getting anything wrong and it's still pretty funny... It'd be cool to hear his correction, but oh well ^_^;; I wouldn't have known without seeing someone else mentioning it and then double checking.

    Vastly superior to anything in the USA.

    Really stupid title. I name Afghanistan! Britain never did get one over on that country. They keep getting driven out.The Afghans also saw the Russians off, both the empire and the Soviets, and nobody has ever been able to best them, That is the whoile reason why Afghanistan exists.

      @@ak99uk Britain got kicked out of Afghanistan, just like every other invader who thougfht it ripe for colonisation. Afghanistan never was a British, Russian or indeed anyone's' colony. Oh, and thanks for spotting my little typo, as if that means anything regarding Britain's many failures in Afghanistan.

      They did win a war though, so Afghanistan was defeated and the title still works.
