It was a real reminder to me that we are different cultures with a common language, when Lucy said that she had only seen a double-decker bus on a Harry Potter film. It was a bit of a shock as most people here in the England consider people from Canada as cousins NOT foreign, unlike Americans, those buggers are definately foreigners! (Laughs!) . Sadly the type of bus that Billy Connelly was talking about in the "Old Lady" sketch, with the spiral staircase and open back that you hop on and off whilst the bus is moving are no longer to be seen in Britain, well only now at some Weddings. Love watching you two, please keep the videos coming!
Quid come from the Latin "Quid pro quo", meaning literally something for something, but became a meaning an exchange of goods or services. It became slang for £1 around the late 17th century.
That is true about glasgow. In the mid 2000s glasgow had the highest murder rate in Europe (Thanks to knife crime), and at the same time was voted the uk’s friendliest city. I went to Glasgow airport in that time period and outside was a massive billboard that said, ‘Welcome to Glasgow, over 100 green places to enjoy’. Some banksy style graffiti artist had scored out the ’to enjoy’ and replaced it with ‘to get stabbed in’ 😂
I guess for some people you may need to have English subtitles (for a Scottish accent, lol). The only problem I guess is you end up reading the punchline in the text, and lose the surprise, the suspense he builds and hence the reward for hearing him deliver his punchline.
A surveyor named Sir Hugh Munro measured the mountain through out Scotland in the late 1800s mountains over 3000ft are catalogued as Munro Mountains, Where the Munro clan come from Easter Ross Is a mountainous as it gets East and Western Ross is coast to coast, if you visit it would be hard to leave
A "quid" is exactly analogous to a "buck". I'm old enough to remember £1 (pound) notes. Since Scottish banks print their own currency we kept notes concurrently with pound coins, longer than England. They only went out of circulation about 20 years ago. I'm pretty sure you can still order paper quids from some Scottish banks, but I don't think a shop would accept them nowadays.
you really need to get into Bob Mortimer on " would I lie to you " !! Bob is one of the funniest guys on the planet despite being a solicitor by profession ??
Yes Jenkins is a Welsh name. :) So both of you are Celts. Kevin Bridges is another Scot from Glasgow, like Billy Connolly. He's very good. He's great on Would I Lie To You (WILTY) especially his story about buying a horse by accident. Hilarious. Yes we used to have a paper £1 but now it's a coin. Why a quid? No idea but no doubt I could find out.
Was Watching a clip earlier and thought of you two, it was from the 80's sitcom 'The Young Ones' which was a new kind of sitcom at the time, it was labelled alternative comedy and was ground-breaking for it's era, I loved it and bands used to play live on the show, one clip I think you'd love is Motorhead playing Ace of Spades on the show, it's amazing looking back seeing such an iconic band playing such an iconic song on a UK sitcom, incredible really!
I don’t know where you’re from, if you’re from England or outside of the country?… but here in the uk, we actually have £5 coins they are massive, they are really a novelty thing, but they are legal tender/cash
@@rc-dk6by They were purely collectors' items when I lived in the UK, and yeah, since 2015 a few have been put into circulation, but I'm willing to bet a random shop won't have one in its till, if they've even ever been offered one.
A looney, really, fascinating. And I think we cam from coins & of course notes but I think basically nobody would be using notes, that'd be the 1800's of course. Would just be business owners & that sort of lot.
Hey Brad and Lucy, you should react to Kevin Bridges "Glockenspiel" from Live at the Apollo. It's quite old and the only one on YT isn't great quality, but for an unknown guy at the time, this was one of the most perfect comedy performance I've ever seen 👌
If you are Welsh you will feel an urge to wait in random, out of the way places and charge £10 for parking or stopping there. Or, you speak jibberish and claim it is your birthright to do so. Or, or, you will feel the urge for castles and the urge to charge people for looking at them even though you never built them. I seem to remember a guy who spent thirty years as a car park attendant taking money for parking at a national place, and he wasn't even employed by them. Everyone assumed he was an official car parking person and paid him. They only realised when he no longer turned up. He must have made a fortune. This Bus Stop moment is a good peace of comedy as well.
A quid can be a buck or dollar too. If you say quid in New Zealand you mean one NZ$. It's just slang for a single unit of the main currency, at least with buck, dollar (of whatever country), or pound sterling.
If you want to do more UK comedy, look for clips of Mock The Week, a lot of modern Brits got their big chance on that show and it is still going. 8 out of 10 cats is another one (and 8 out of 10 cats does Countdown). Good way of finding comedians you want to then look at in more depth.
I’ve been watching you guys for a bit now 👍 you should check out a German comedian who lives in the uk called henning wehn look at his live at the Apollo 7.31 minutes long and Edinburgh and beyond 8.58 minutes long..
Think yourself lucky we have a £1 and £2 coin... We too used to have a £1 note but never a £2 note. There's all kinds of names for currency denominations (correction values the biggest note is effectively £20 but £50 do exist, but so rare and many shops won't accept them): £1 Quid £20 Score £25 Pony £50 Bullseye £100 Ton £500 Monkey £1000 Grand Change can be referred to as shrapnel, money in general dosh, dough, moola, redies, lolly... You might still get an old reference by some older people like 10 bob (or shillings) equivalent to half a pound, now 50p but then 240p in a pound made it 120p, pre 1971...
Hi you two! Yeah, you need to do more Kevin Bridges - this'd be a good one! ua-cam.com/video/tDVn3mAv-z0/v-deo.html Regarding our money, we used to have a pound note, like your dollar - but now we have a coin for £1 (and a £2 coin as well) - and in the pre-decimal days we also used to have a 10 shilling (or 10 'bob') note, 2 of which equaled a pound (20 shillings). This gave rise to the expression for a shady character 'he's as bent as a nine-bob note'..!! Look forward to the next one, love you guys!
can i suggest micky flannagan, he is my faveourite comedian! if you get a chance watch his bit about the french, or peeping! EDIT: just found you react to peeping haha

Would I Lie to You? - Did Kevin Bridges buy a Horse? Funny as hell!
Beat me to it, so funny

@@69mosshead yep ! Kevin accidentally buys a horse ! - funny guy !
I was all prepared to recommend the same. Good call
A Munro is what we call a small mountain here in Scotland of which there are many
Noo yer talkin', big HELLO from Edinburgh, Scotland, originally from Glasgow, but I married an Edinburgh lassie so.....she won :)

Yhh hate when some reactors put on subtitles it just ruins the joke
I'm with ya 100%
The subtitles sorta translated his Scottish accent into English 🤣🤣 wtf
As someone who is deaf and a very quick reader, you get used to it after a while.
I saw Kevin Bridges live and I can seriously say my face ached after laughing so much ...
Kevin Bridges has 1 of the best stories on the TV show Would I lie to you that is a must watch.. I once accidentally bought a 🐎 🤣🤣
That was his first time on TV at 20 years old I believe. He is a well crafted super funnier guy now. You should check out more of him.
I like that it wasn't really subtitles as much as it was a translation
I didn't know Canadians call 1$ a Loonie.
You learn something new everyday.
👍🏿
anything by Kevin Bridges is a winner
He comes from the area I am from...& we love him! Love you Brad & Lucy...Gill from Scotlande x
We done a few from Kevin, but they were blocked 😢

Quid, I think, comes from the Latin phrase, quid pro quo - something for something. Hence the common usage when referring to the Pound.

Do you know of Stuart Francis??? Canadian one liner, I felt him very funny. I like quick witty one liners!
Quid = £1
thanks for your videos.
Check out Al Murray 'Why it's called 'Great' Britain' 👍🙂

You guys had Canadian pounds until 1858, I bet they were quids too😄

The Brits have loads of different slang words for £1, quid is merely one of them.
A munroe is any hill over 3000ft
Think yourself lucky we have a £1 and £2 coin... We too used to have a £1 note but never a £2 note.
There's all kinds of names for currency denominations (correction values the biggest note is effectively £20 but £50 do exist, but so rare and many shops won't accept them):
£1 Quid
£20 Score
£25 Pony
£50 Bullseye
£100 Ton
£500 Monkey
£1000 Grand
Change can be referred to as shrapnel, money in general dosh, dough, moola, redies, lolly...
You might still get an old reference by some older people like 10 bob (or shillings) equivalent to half a pound, now 50p but then 240p in a pound made it 120p, pre 1971...
Awesome, thanks. Our $2 is a coin now. So naturally they rhymed it with the Loony, and called it the Toony 🤣
The subtitles were weird, they tried translating it.
Hi you two!

Yeh I agree with your comments at the end….lose the subtitles especially for comedians
There's theories for where 'quid' came from (like what some here are telling as gospel) but no definite answer.
The subtitles are for Americans!
can i suggest micky flannagan, he is my faveourite comedian! if you get a chance watch his bit about the french, or peeping! EDIT: just found you react to peeping haha
Yes next one bridges and wilty bought a horse
Your ladies hair colour, skin colour and facial structure would suggest she's luckily gotten more Scottish genes than French 👍
Yes, she is a Munroe 😁
You need to watch the Scottish tv show called (still game)
Kevin bridges is amazing but the subtitles spoil the punchlines.
What spelling of Monroe my 1st wife was Munro she's was full blooded scottish
Munroe, but it was changed from Munro by my mom to look French
You look Welsh and Scottish.
