He definitely has a bit of the Mr bean in him. Facial expressions and body movement are such a big part of comedy. Not to mention canned laughter which I personally can't stand.
I remember my friend's father many years ago having a small amount of wine poured into his glass by the waiter for him to sample. He looked at the glass and asked "is that all I get?" Ha Ha!!
Debbie Ann : I just ask if the bottle he's brought is what we ordered "Then please pour it. I take it you don't serve wine that's not fit for drinking" "Certainly not sir" "Good, because if there's something wrong with it you'll feel the bottle hitting the back of your head" Say it with a smile and you'll be fine.
Debbie Ann : I'm sure some waiters do it to try to embarrass the customer in front of his lady companion.. Mind you, I've not experienced it for many years because I look and sound as though I know what I'm doing even when I don't. However, I still go to pieces trying to work out what knife and fork to use.
@MichaelKingsfordGray Nobody who is addicted to caffeine fail to function you're just exaggerating. Drugs damage the body, caffeine doesn't, major difference and it is not something to joke about.
Agreed. He doesn’t swear for the sake of it like so many other comedians. A lot of his humour comes from his mannerisms and expressions. Thats why he’s one of my favourite comedians. This sketch is one of my favourites - absolute classic.
The reason a wine bottle is opened in front of the guest, is because there have been places where they serve cheap wine from expensive bottles to make huge profit. Still funny as hell tho:)
That's all I do when waiters pour a drop for me to confirm that the wine is good (not spoiled/air didn't penetrate the cork). If you ever get a bottle of wine that's applied, one sniff is all you need to immediately tell if it's gone off.
He is very funny. His delivery of the show is also superb, right speech speed, clear pronunciation, and just the right amounts of walking to and fro on the stage. He also dresses just right, not too casual, and not too formal like the 11:35 late night show presenters here in the US (dark suit, white shirt, and tie). He also cleverly avoids jokes that simply ridicule politicians (like our late night presenters here in the US).
Hilarious! Within my non-knowledgeable group of wine drinking friends whenever we eat out and order wine there seems to be a standard operating procedure. We all go through the motions of looking through the wine list and invariably the second cheapest wine is ordered, can't be seen to being a cheap charlie haha!
What amuses me about wine and the fafing about is when some wine expert is describing the taste, they mention every fruit you can think of but never the grapes that it's made of.
My ex used to open up cat food and allow her cat to sniff it, so I brought this up: Saying that the cat is probably thinking: "Yes that's cat food I've smelled it before" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a waitress in a fairly fancy restaurant, I also have no idea about which wines are good, or why we have to show them the label, or why we open it at the table. I suppose we show the wine just to make sure it's the one they asked for, and open it for them bc we're doing them a service, or something
The wine bit is nearly as awkward as the oversized comedic pepper mill that the waiting staff use when you order a pasta dish. It's not a luxury item anymore, the freshly ground pepper I can buy a pepper mill in aldi for €1. There's always that awkward silence when they put it on your pasta dish. Just leave a normal sized one on each table ffs
I thoroughly enjoy his hilarious everyday interpretations of peoples' lives. He makes you think back on either seeing or experiencing just such a situation. 🇦🇺😷😷😷👍👍👏👏👏
Haha! I love it. I attended a number of wine tasting night classes and of course, I know everything there is to know about wines. During that period it took me x10 the time to choose a wine in Sainsbury's or Lidl.:) Now it's the Sainsbury's "Jammie Red 'Roo" and I'm out'a there. :))
Most of our customs comes down from old aristocracy, and if the aristocracy ever did anything, it’s bullshit and bluff. Kind of like all the upper class people today hoarding designer shit and fine art, when everyone clearly knows they’ve fuck all appreciation for them.
I was out at a dinner a few days ago. It was a pretty smart do I was at, but it went like Michael said, pretty much word for word, from the wine testing to the bread and water and post meal coffee.
I work in a fancy restaurant and before i started working there i had no idea people would order coffee after drinking alcohol and eating loads of food at around 10pm when someone asked me for it the first time i was very confused lol
Look, just give me the Australian stuff, can't go wrong there. Yellowtail bubbly is a fraction of the cost of the fancy Champagne stuff, and just as good.
As an Australian I agree, but also check out the Californian stuff. One of wines biggest embarrassments is when a blind tasting designed to showcase French wines actually placed Cali wines well ahead of them.
How come when you serve someone Spaghetti they don’t take a fork full and say “ ahhh yes a hint of garlic & rosemary, a trace of basil, definitely a hint of oregano”..
I remember as the waiter, it's the most expensive wine please for the love of god don't say no. I always found placing the napkin on a customers lap the most awkward part. You're supposed to just do it but I would always ask. 😂
What is this issue with the coffee... I like and need an espresso after a good dinner in a restaurant. I get sleepy. Wakes you up enough to manage to get up from the table and find your way home. After you undress, take a shower and prepare for bed, the effect of the coffee is gone... In France they always offer coffee after dinner. (Especially if you have to drive, it helps a lot if you're awake!) As long as you don't have a giant Starbucks bucket before bed, you should be fine.
I was working on the assumption that a beefburger is from a cow, a chicken burger is from a chicken, a turkey burger is from a turkey, and hamburger is from a ... oh, wait! My wife says that a hamburger is from a cow. Sorry, folks. Just shows what I know! (Not a lot.)
Straight to the prices,,, thats me. Bloody hilarious.

This guy is a hoot. Those facial expressions ! hahahaha
I am very picky about comedy. What others think is funny, i usually dont. But this guy is really funny.
He is 😅
But your not
Yes I believe his physical humor about the best there is then throw in his story telling and comedy he's about as good as it gets.
It’s currently 3:24am and I’m trying to get some sleep for school tomorrow but he keeps making me laugh I can’t stop watching 😂😭
This is my favourite routine. It makes me laugh every time.
“I might just go to work and wait there” lol holy shit, I can’t breathe
What are you doing?! You have to *smell* the wine before tasting it! 🤣
That's all I do when waiters pour a drop for me to confirm that the wine is good (not spoiled/air didn't penetrate the cork). If you ever get a bottle of wine that's applied, one sniff is all you need to immediately tell if it's gone off.
