@@replicativeimpact1574 One thing is reality, another thing is parody. Try to look at this as parody about a character you know, in silly situations. Normally the only thing parody and reality match is names and places. The rest is ridiculous, that is the whole point of parody.
@@replicativeimpact1574 youre right, it doesnt make fun of merkel at all. Rather it makes fun of stereotypes familiar to british people. Im not from britain but i get the jokes about germany, but not jokes about scotland because im not familiar with their culture. I dont even know what the fried fudge is about. All in good fun. Edit: check out death to 2020. Ullman does similar jokes while playing elizabeth ii that make fun of commom peoples views on royalty but not about the real queen.
I remember Tracey Ullman from 30+ years ago.. I never understood her humor although I always respected her. I may be late to the party but I'm so grateful to finally arrive. Kudos to Tracey and her fans through the years.. lots to catch up on !!
She IS Nicola Sturgeon!!? I had to take a double-take! Uncanny (no pun intended) how she morphs into the personality she imitates. Genius! Ullman is a comedic mastermind.
I know, right. Me: Yank Summer visitor to the land of some ancestors. Chilled to the bone in a July morning rain in Edinburgh a few years ago. I know why Carnegie and so many other Scots emigrated: opportunity first, better climate second.
Has there been a Hilary version yet? I thought the Sturgeon and Merkel take offs were brilliant. Every time I now see the First Minister of Scotland in a red outfit.. I will think of Tracey Ullman !!!
”She wanted independence, I'll make her head independent from her body." That is an absolutely hilarious line. In all seriousness though, if Scotland had of become independent, it would have been interesting to see Sturgeon and Merkel together on the European stage. It's such a shame that Sturgeon's departure from politics was followed by allegations of embezzlement and corruption. Even if one didn't agree with her policies, she was one of the better leaders in the UK at the time. At least she appeared that way. Disappointing really. Nevertheless, Tracy Ullman's brilliance in imitating both Merkel and Sturgeon is excellent and very, very funny.
I wish Angela wold make a guest appearance after her last day in office next year. Having her play a comedian that imitates the "real" Angela would be so freaking epic
I wouldn't put it past her. Not that she would ever show it in public, but Merkel has a sublime sense of humour. When she has her military farewell parade this week, she asked the army band to play an East German punk song for her.
Many women have parodied Merkel and Wee Jimmy, but none of them come close to the brilliant Tracy Ullman. I wish there was a part 2 - I'd love to see the outcome.
I sincerely hope Angela Merkel watches these parodies XD
I live in Germany and the parody has nothing to do with how Merkel really is or what she talks about. Not funny
@@replicativeimpact1574 That's the point, they poke fun at politicians and celebrities.

This is genius. Between the makeup, the writing and the actors. Genius. I could watch a whole series based solely on the Merkel sketches.
AGREE 100%
"I'm going to give that woman a Glasgow Kiss."
I'm still giggling. That's funny.
I was laughing so much i couldn't hear what she said in the background while giving her a glasgow kiss haha
John Smith omg hahhahaa
A Glasgow kiss means a quick head but to the nose to break it.
@@nitrocatgaming1748 Rather is just an outright head butt haha
She wants independence I'll make her head independent from her body haha
Tracey Ullman is one of the funniest comediennes ever. I adore her take on Angela.
"That is perfect for a human rights conference in Inverness. Nothing too sex machine".
"Who wants a friend like ein doppelgänger, I have enough problems with Hillary!" Fuckin A hilarious! 🤣
'I have enough trouble with Hillary Clinton'
Don't we all
She should do Hilary Clinton
She should do Hilary Clinton
These are priceless! as a Canadian watching these years later... "Stuck in a Schnow drift!" Tracey and her writers are brilliant!.

Tracey was always hilarious plus she's a very good singer had a few good songs and done well in both the UK and Irish charts.
She had a couple of pretty decent songs in the charts too.
The assistant lady is very good too. I love seeing her do the touch up on Angela’s face
She IS Nicola Sturgeon!!? I had to take a double-take! Uncanny (no pun intended) how she morphs into the personality she imitates. Genius! Ullman is a comedic mastermind.
Scottish vorrrrld))))))) Priceless!!))))))))))))))))
SuperSmile2004 She's even more convincing than the real thing😂
@John Smith Que? Which planet are you from?
Got them both to a T, many a true word said in jest.
When will they start imitating Theresa May? "I don't know why people vote for me!"
“What about my human right to be warm in August?”
Oh, I thought she said Glasgow.....thanks!
Yeah I'm Scottish and I always assumed everyone was cold around that time lol
I know, right. Me: Yank Summer visitor to the land of some ancestors. Chilled to the bone in a July morning rain in Edinburgh a few years ago. I know why Carnegie and so many other Scots emigrated: opportunity first, better climate second.
Daniel Stewart I am Spanish,believe me, cold is the last thing we are in August 😂
@@danielstewart8631 August is one of the hottest months in California
"Deep fried Highland fudge?" LOL 😄😄
And what a treat to get Tracey playing two parts!
Hello stephanie hope you're okay?
Tracey still hasn't lost it after all those years.
"Why are you wearing my jacket?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gar nicht schlecht gemacht, muss ich zugeben! With greetings from Germany 😊
Great German accents, great Scottish accent!
Love her . She's pure talent
i stumbled upon this and I have tears laughing !!! nice watch for the lockdown!! this woman is just too good.
Tracey Ullman is simply a genius

@MichaelKingsfordGray lol I know Nicola sturgeon is a complete moron lol
I just LOVE her Scottish accent!!
It’s spot on
I have watched this.at.least.a.dozen times.and I will watch it some dozen times more...I just.can't get enough of them!!
Great on the accents! As a German, I can tell, that these two have it down!!! Superb comedy!
Wicked Scottish accent! 😂
This is brilliant - funny but yet so true.
This is so funny absolutely love Tracy
These are wonderful! I need more of this in my life!

I love it when Angela goes banging at Nicola's door
Deep fried highland fudge hahaha
This should be a weekly show of its own. Just that good
Tracey Ulman is very good, most comedians die out after they peak, our Tracey just gets better, like a fine wine 👍👍👍
" ...you saw what I did to Alex Salmond". Talk about topical!
Tracy Ullman...genius.
Tracey's makeup artist is so professional and correct he also gave Tracy blue contact lenses
Like "if we copy Angela, we'll do it properly!"
Deep fried Highland fudge, anyone?
ahh man absolutely brilliant,
"shtuck in the shnow"
A snow drift in August no less!
Deep fried highland fudge 🤣🤣🤣
Tracy Ullman is AMAZING!!!
merkel dragged in to scotland against her will.
Merkel did some really bad things in her 12 year reign but she really didn't deserve this.
I wish someone brought me to Scotland :(
Beautiful country.
Merkel is Poland's Daughter ...
Bonnie Prince Charlie was Poland's Son too.
go poland.
Tracey's accents are so perfect.
She’s been doing this for a fair while.
Deep-fried Highland Fudge sounds delicious.
It was also my drag and name in high school.
Ew.
I can't live Angela!
Ich auch nicht!!!!!
Perfekt!
Selten so gelacht!!!
To think both of them are gone now...
But only one of them will be missed.
"You saw wit I did to Alex Salmond...". 😂
Deep fried fudge, yum, and all the Irn Bru, I'd be sold, lol 🤣
It's funny but it's very true!Sturgeon has said that the Merkel vision for Europe is the best one!
C.J. Johnson shows the whole left wing vaneer with SNP is BS.
Her “Sturgeon” just eerily comes across like a female Billy Connolly ...
"You and I both know that nothing lasts forever. Merkel is finished. She's yesterday's woman!"
And in 2023 ....
😂 Laughed myself to tears.🤣
Whooouhhe! That wen't under the Radar!
That's awesome.
Ich liebe es!!
Nicola Sturgeon is the UK’s Frau Farbissina (from the Austin Powers movies)
Omg that Nicola sturgeon is spot on haha
Truly remarkable! This woman is obviously mad 😂😂
Wonderful, and i'm shure, Angela laughs her arse off, watching this!
always brilliant
Incredible!
Hmm, imagine Scotland and Bavaria are going to be separated and building a new Kingdom with the Wittelsbacher Stuart King Franz von Bayern :)
I do love Birgit. There was a great German Satirist who played the promoter of the Chanceler. They'd be brilliant together.
I fell in love with Tracy since she fell in love with Paul...
I love Tracy 😆🤣🤣
Hello Rhynda hope you're okay?
Tracey's doing a brilliant job.
Hello Andy hope you're okay?
Many women have parodied Merkel and Wee Jimmy, but none of them come close to the brilliant Tracy Ullman.
I wish there was a part 2 - I'd love to see the outcome.
Super duper good...
i like this. it makes her more human.
first time i see this! Cool
Brilliant parody of both women😀
I couldn't quite get the Burns night haggis line. Did anyone else get that?
Yes, she says, "Scotland has been through the mincer more than a Burns night haggis during the last six months."
I love Tracey, she is always right on! Who writes her stuff?
The make up is perfection
She sounds like Ben Kingsley in Schindler’s list
Brilliant!
This is really funny!
Do they show this on German main TV channels ?
No
No, but I would love it. Wonderful. I did not like Angela Merkel in the beginning but she has done a very good job. She is quite a character.
The accent 😂😂😂😂😂
That fudge is very suspicious.
Crathes fucking Castle
What is the name of the show this comes from?
Dont forget the Polish premier lol...
Stuck in Snow in Scotland in August.
Its funny how other countrys see Merkel :D
Mein Chancellorette
Mini merkel.Perfect.
