"I left my bloody briefcase in the bunker. It's got the Joint Intelligence Committee papers in it-and the nuclear codes." "Where were you sitting?" "Between Iran and North Korea." "Oh." "Think I'll just leave it."
The huge effort for the repeated joke...wonderfully apt parody of Brit "Dreadfully sorry, but, oh, neverminded." And the pin on the head of a pinhead. Bloody marvelous, and a stick of an unoiled widget.
AAHHH!!!!!!! Send the aid back for it! SEND THE AID BACK!!!! Aaahhhh!! (He wouldn't be the first vain diplomat, and he won't be the British one I very much fear)
This is exactly the same vibe as making a massive jaw dropping slap back, flouncing out of the room, only to remember that you left your phone there 😖😱.
Yep, that whole bit didn't really make sense. Iranians don't dress like that anyway. Plus, the aid mentions North Korea, but they don't see to be there.
"He also spoke some pseudo-Arabic: "insh'Allah"." I believe that means "God willing" in Arabic. Like, I think it's real Arabic. I could see a Muslim using the phrase, even if Arabic isn't his first language. But why they were dressed like Saudis...well, come on, this was written by the English, they can't tell those ethnics apart.
Mister Guy - You’re right on all counts. I think Iranians pronounce it more like “en-sh’allah” but the Farsi he speaks is correct and with a darn good accent. Either that actor is REALLY good, or he’s Iranian, in which case he would know that Iranians don’t dress like that (but an acting job is an acting job).
Excuse me, can I ask you a favor? I can't understand what (in first sketch) the Prime Minister has forgotten in the meeting room! [Sorry, I'm not english! :)]
My favorite part of this is that the American president and who I believe is supposed to be the Chinese leader are not setting the heads of the table, or are listening to the United Kingdom prime minister, or they actually signed an agreement like that.
I suppose whoever calls the meeting gets the head of the table, and it appears to be the PM's project. The fact that they signed it is part of the gag though; he achieved a miracle and then discarded it so not to be embarassed!
That first one about global warming was way to real and hit way too close to home that I wasn’t sure if I found it both hilarious or horrifying. I think it’s both.
+Johann Gunnarsson. Hey mate. Did you write your original post after a heavy nights drinking? I've done this and then had to trawl my way through my original post to find out what I was thinking at the time, on account of some rather less than polite replies. You have my support. +Sithor: Well, at least I got the joke.
was anyone else expecting "shit.....I forgot to put the bins out"
and thats why we are having wars and global crisis all the time cause the prime minister keeps forgetting essential documents at the meetings
Someone from the FCO went back for it, and every world leader looked blank and said: "Treaty, what treaty?"
What a fine and honourable gift from one head of state to another; a feather and balloon on a stick!
"I did the hot air gag" 😂
"I left my bloody briefcase in the bunker. It's got the Joint Intelligence Committee papers in it-and the nuclear codes."
"Where were you sitting?"
"Between Iran and North Korea."
"Oh."
"Think I'll just leave it."
'Shit... Shit shit shit shit shit...'
'What?'
'I left my son in the pub...'
Why doesn't he just send security in to get the items for him? That's what I would do.
Then there is no comedic punchline. I sense you don't write for comedy, David? 😂
@@221b-Maker-Street Methinks the punchline was not necessary. In Mr James’ comedic, ironic gem, the journey is the destination.
Intelligent, charming and sharp Prime Minister, but keeps forgetting the treaties that he signed, and his wife 😄🤣
Wish, one or two of the more recent PMs had forgotten signing certain treaties ... or rather their cancellation 😕
The fellow speaking Farsi actually speaks Farsi! An American version would never use a native speaker.
It’s just a shame he’s dressed like a Saudi.
I really wish he'd just sent his aide to get it...
I know it’s a bit late but the aide probably doesn’t have the clearance to go in those rooms
_"I left my bloody wife in Mogadishu!"_ 😂
Something tells me the aide always has a Plan B in case the PM decides to leave it lol
I love how he has loads of knots in his hankerchief
And to think that the bloke who hold ALL the Nuclear Codes for each and Every Nation in these pacts, is named Azif I Care.
imagine if this prime minister was in the thick of it even malcom tucker find him impossible to work with lol
Still a better PM then the last few.
My favorite part is how he checks his jacket pocket to really make sure he didn't put his wife there.
he was putting his cloth away.

AAHHH!!!!!!! Send the aid back for it! SEND THE AID BACK!!!! Aaahhhh!!
(He wouldn't be the first vain diplomat, and he won't be the British one I very much fear)
Hahaha they gave him a balloon on a stick
This is exactly the same vibe as making a massive jaw dropping slap back, flouncing out of the room, only to remember that you left your phone there 😖😱.
This would be me if I was Prime Minister which is why people with egos shouldn't hold positions of power
Well, we're all human.
Haha, it's just painfully funny
Hilarious the actor actually looks like Joe Biden! 😂
At the time of watching this, the president in this sketch actually looks like Joe Biden. 😂
from America, keep paying your BBC tax! This is awesome!!!
A license not a tax (you can opt out from paying and recieving) but thanks
Nope. Not all Brits loving being taxed for stuff they don't need or want.
This is good - all of what the BBC makes now is useless, lefty, nonsensical mush, for which I refuse to pay!
This would have been Johnson at his most efficient. Thank god he didn’t try too hard.
Today David Cameron would just send Nick Clegg to get it
Prime minister reminds me of Joe Biden.
Both of them are forgetful 😂
I half expected a "Kill them" as soon as he walked out xD
Why are they patting down the PM?
My suspended belief is broken!!! 1/10
OOooo sh$!....i think we'll just leave it!...so funny!
Why can’t someone else just get it?
Chinese are on board, its the US that dropped out :)
Yeah isn't that ironic. I remembered this sketch when the paris accord was signed haha
why was he being patted down? wasn't he exiting the securer aria?
its incase the aid or the pm stole anything
its geoffrey from not going out
The brilliant Geoffrey Whitehead. He also played Ben Miller's father in law in The Worst Week of My Life.
0:35 - "HI, I'M A SHOUTY MAN!"
Theresa May has definitely done this
From France : keep paying your BBC tax ! This is just great !
0:22 Shit....I forgot the bins....
Whay do they say around 6:40 ish in the non english language?
I don't understand. The arab guy is speaking Persian and curses at the US representative in a meeting to increase sanctions on Tehran?
exactly the middle east is fucked
Yep, that whole bit didn't really make sense. Iranians don't dress like that anyway. Plus, the aid mentions North Korea, but they don't see to be there.
SHIT.... shit shit shit shit.... so authentic :DDDD
5:14 - 8:01 is the funniest xD
So English !!! The embarrassment LOL
Rhis is how the world ends
YES!
Iranians aren't Arabs!
Yeah, that was an odd mistake, as soon as he mentioned Tehran I was wondering why they looked like Saudis.
Rob Fraser He also spoke some pseudo-Arabic: "insh'Allah".
"He also spoke some pseudo-Arabic: "insh'Allah"."
I believe that means "God willing" in Arabic. Like, I think it's real Arabic. I could see a Muslim using the phrase, even if Arabic isn't his first language. But why they were dressed like Saudis...well, come on, this was written by the English, they can't tell those ethnics apart.

HILARIOUS¡

Excuse me, can I ask you a favor? I can't understand what (in first sketch) the Prime Minister has forgotten in the meeting room! [Sorry, I'm not english! :)]
He forgot the piece of paper that was signed. If he can't show that paper then it is meaningless
Only 9 years late
@@gerardcurtis3911 thanks! :)
nonono... it works the other way around.
Staring Bill O'Riley as the president of the USA
Hot air politicians.
quality sketch - but iranian dressed as an arab, come on...
Thanks! ^_^ It was simple, after all! :)
Theresa may
I do have to note the Iranians are dressed as Arabs.
I really hope those are blind stabs cause that's weird as fuck if you know all that just by looking at him

Lol funny
Just send an aide...
@Xristofe it's like a sketch with French influence claiming to be an English sketch... but ah well.. :)
just leave it
...and the nuclear codes
Double ironic in this age of trump
simon pegg extra there. 3:50 guard.
+Morte lol nope! ;)
erm... the actors here are wearing saudi close. It's not even related to iranian wear.
@aymanzonefly as long as its funny and looks muslin LOL
Huge budget, lame, self indulgent writing, and perfomences which were phoned in...
4:28 prime minister farted as he said shiit
That first one about global warming was way to real and hit way too close to home that I wasn’t sure if I found it both hilarious or horrifying.
I think it’s both.
This is basically the same joke over and over and less and less funny each time...
+Jóhann Gunnarsson :)) more like more and more funny. how can you not find funny the fact that he left his wife behind?
you miss the point and context .
david jay I don't actually remember writing this but I must have been in a bad mood or something because watching it now it is actually hilarious :)
Jóhann Gunnarsson lol we've all posted things and then wondered why don't worry!!! 😀
+Johann Gunnarsson. Hey mate. Did you write your original post after a heavy nights drinking?

Good stuff but the usual ignorance of the west in one skit. Iranians are not Arabs.
