The English are the best at comedy, no question. As for taking the piss out of anyone, they do it with such skill, we (Australians) love them because they do it to themselves too. These two are the best of the best. From Down Under.
@@scottneil1187 Sorry my bad, yes true. But English are poms the rest of you lot are ok.
@@scottneil1187 Until you get Indy you are cursed with being British.
The Brits are hilarious!
Australians love telling us Brits ( Poms as they call us ) how dangerous Australia is.
Ronnie Barkers most loved character is probably Fletch from the comedy series Porridge. Few shows match it, none surpass it.
Norman Stanley Fletcher - spot on, you should try and see some if not all of Porridge, is brilliant.
yh nah yh nah. Whinging pom is the phrase.
Lol poms just means Prisoner of mother English.
It's an insult
The beauty of this sketch is the ones that would find it the funniest are the Aussies them selves. They have a gret way of poking fun at themselves just a we doourselves, so we both know we can take they piss out of each other with equal measure and laugh equaly hard. I'd forgotten this sketch thank for the memories
The two Ronnies were brilliant, they had a certain magic that worked so well together.
In England vests like that are called "Wife Beaters"!
"Should never have joined the Rolf Harris fan club"... now there's a line that's truer than ever.
Not actually true. Rolf Harris was found innocent after a private investigator got onto the case and found out all the lies and mistakes that had happened. I only found out about this a week or two ago. I heard it in an interview on Leighton Smith's weekly podcast on New Zealand's newstalkzb.
as an aussie i can say i have eaten my fair share of flys
"They used the beer to put the fire out"
"Yes, after they drank it"
🤣😅😆
As an ex-pat Brit and damn proud Australian, I bloody love this skit. Superb, over the top and timeless.
Their accents while not perfect, are pretty darn good. I'm rather impressed. 😊
I love how you say “they’re trying just to use the funniest words they can think of” and us Aussies are like - umm no that’s actually our language. Whilst Brits may know some/most of our slang I’m thinking most of this would be lost on the Americans 😂 😂 😂

🇬🇧pardon
Lol the yanks would have no idea.
We Brits take the pee out of Ozzies, and they do the same to us. If it stopped happening there would be serious grounds for falling out with each other.
Not many people can do the Aussie accent but that wasn’t a bad effort. Aussies and poms love taking the piss out of each other and ourselves.
Nobody does comedy like the Poms,they're the masters,this particular skit would be a bit tricky for people not familiar with Australian slang,but these two are comedy genius at delivery and comedic timing
Ok, but don't forget Dave Allen, the late great Irish comedian. I reckon Eclectic Beard should look at this one, when Dave Allen was in Australia: - ua-cam.com/video/fYdFG3gYeyQ/v-deo.html
@@travelbugse2829 true,he never ever told the story how he lost his finger,Benny Hill,Hale and Pace,it's a long list,all those people would be cancelled in 5mins in today's climate though
@@andrewmcmurray684 100%! I was so angry when David Walliams was forced to apologise for his 'racist' sketches in Little Britain, for dressing up as a black woman. It was one of several events that led me to cancel my BBC licence.
@@travelbugse2829 ha,I didn't know that,i loved that character,I'd probably agree that some old stuff crosses the line and didn't age well,like Alf Garnett in Till Death do Us Part,but characters like Williams Desiree De Vere?,the is no offensive intent,Matt Lucas also played Ting Tong the Thai mail order bride,I would assume any Carry On movie be be unavailable,I'm sure comedians will say something considered OK today that will turn out to be offensive and cancelled in 10yrs time
Look up 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' to better understand the joke. Only thing about the alligators is we don't have any and there aren't any croc at Cootamundra. 😆
I like The Two Ronnies. A childhood favourite.
Ronnie Barker - the larger one - was just a brilliant scriptwriter, and wrote a lot of material under pseudonyms. Wildly original for the time, completely inoffensive, and actually funny. I'm always disappointed no one has ever been able to fill his shoes. Regards.
Like Krusty the clown, they're big shoes to fill!
Goolagong was probably a reference to Evonne Fay Goolagong Cawley AC MBE (née Goolagong; born 31 July 1951) she is an Australian former world No. 1 tennis player. Goolagong was one of the world's leading players in the 1970s and early 1980s.
Yes and Terry Wogan used to refer to the Goolagong Gusset when she would tuck her spare ball in her knickers
Have you watched any Dad’s Army yet? Highly recommend if you haven’t! As well as On the Buses, Porridge, StepToe & Son, Rising Damp, Open All Hours. And although the 90’s - highly recommend The Royle Family!
Hy, I have watched your reactions and they are awesome, love british humour and hvae a nice day. Greetings from Croatia.
Some South Africans look like that too, especially at a braai (BBQ) during a rugby match.
Ah, he tripped up! It’s crocodiles not alligators! Alligators are only in the US.
Sorry, I reread your post and that’s right what you said. 😊
I'd love to see you react to Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie, Kathy Burke is so funny and under rated but hysterical in everything she does
The joke about the abos (aboriginales) where he was the picnic was a riff off the famous Australian book and film, Picnic at Hanging Rock. Abos are not cannibals.
It's a pommy send up of us Aussies. :) There are lots of references you might not get unless you are in the know. Some are slang words and stereotypes but some are also referring to movies and news stories. Like the picnic reference was from 'Picnic at hanging rock' that was a 1975 Australian mystery film.
5:13 they got it wrong, we don't have alligators we have crocs.
Exactly this!
@@scottneil1187 have u been to Hanging Rock? I have on a school excursion. Nuffin’ creepy happened at all 😩😂
I'd never wear those...
@@bernadettelanders7306 I saw the movie when I was a kid, the pan flutes gave me nightmares for years.
absolutely love these guys
You will learn much from Porridge.
Like, how to deal with authority.
They are Great together.
Not their best but not bad, have to add though that there are no alligators in Australia, we only have big ass crocodiles.
It’s true about the dust, only it was flies in the glasses when we had dinner outside under the stars in Australia, I have never seen so many flies gather so quickly in a glass😳🥴
i always enjoy them too
Again, another wonderful Reaction video...Please keep it coming.
They do the Aussie accent well and as we know the Aussie accent is almost impossible to do unless you were born here or lived here for a long time.
This my son and I found hilarious when we were in America. As we entered Disneyland on a really hot day in California, there was one fly and yes it found the bloody Aussies and annoyed the shit out of us. I looked at my son and said: How did it know?! I swear that damn fly made us do the GREAT AUSTRALIAN SALUTE in America. That fly knew, it just knew. Smart flies in America I swear it said YAYYYY Aussies, I'll make them feel at home.
Two Ronnies, class act.
First time I saw The two Ronnies was in a comedy film called ”By the sea”. There are almost no dialogue at all in it, but pretty funny anyway. I guess it's a bit too long for a reaction though, I don't know.
Not suprised they can take it so well. Australia is posibly the only country to just up and loose its Prime Minister. On 17 December 1967, Harold Holt.
It is a send up of Aussies in the outback. The words are normal in Australia.
I'm Australian and we call english people POME which is short for "Prisoner Of Mother England"
In the 1920s British immigrants in Australia were called Pomegranates.... Or Pommy Grants (rhyming with immigrants)
Eventually it got shortened to Pom/Pommy.
Now it is used to describe all Brits (especially English) not just immigrant Brits in Australia
Good stuff flies off the shelves.
Humans weren't meant to live in that evil land of creatures. Lol. Thanks Mr E.B.
Fly sandwiches - thats Spidermans dirty secret.
Eat the flies before they eat you. Makes sense!
That must be 40 years old, at least.
Funny stuff as always with them. Thanks for it. Be well. 😉
Bloody brilliant 😂😂
Cootamundra is a great country town
"Abbo" not quite PC these days for aboriginals.
That doesnt suprise me these days things were so different in the
80's when i was born and grew in the later part of it and early 1990's
Yeah that threw me. Been a while since I've heard that.
Not so many Rolf Harris Fan Clubs around, either.
tbh it wasn’t even PC back then. When I was at school in the 70s this was considered derogatory
Not the mention the suggestion they're cannibals!
The beard's back up n running
I'll have to go up there. Cootamundra is only about 3 hours drive from here!
I worked with a small guy (He was 60 and that was thirty years ago) at Pilkington's England, and he spent a year or so when younger going around Australia. Now I like Australian people, and I've got relatives there. However, he stated (and he was an honest bloke) that he went into one town and was approached by the local sheriff or top bosses and told he could either be gone in a couple of hours or he would be dead; he left pretty quick!
Police would not bother tourists,
@@greggiles7309 I remember he never said police, but either local sheriff or somebody like them. I was in my twenties at the time, and he was touching sixty, but he was a nice guy and just telling a life story. It sounded something from a Wild West story. I'm not being judgmental but just telling you what I heard from him.
@@flowerpower8722 It was probably 25 - 30 years ago I had this discussion with this guy. He was also talking about something that he did in his thirties (he was about sixty), and it sounded like the old wild west (America). He had a wind-up LP player and a banjo, that's what he said. He was a nice, genuine guy.
I've got relatives in Australia, and they're very well off. He said sheriffs, maybe something he could relate to and that I could.
He also travelled around Africa, but I was in work glassmaking (Pilks) and didn't always listen like I should have done.
LOL and that would be an honest bloke taking the piss out of a naive tourist 🤣
@@flowerpower8722 they’re not as well known as in the US and serve a different function than in the USA, in NSW for example they serve warrants and other court sanctioned documents, but I think each state in Australia does have sheriff officers. So while the threat was probably made in jest the person could have met a sheriff in Australia.
That's real Aussie language well,slang but they talk like that. Love your channel BTW.
Some comedy RADÌO related recommendations: The Goon Show (inspired so much comedy, like Monty Python and The Goodies), Hancock's Half-hour (virtually the original British sitcom), and The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy (sci-fi insanity that's also quite thought-provoking).
Perhaps have a look at A Quiet Night In. The first Porrige episode.
No alligators in Australia !
I like some of their skits as well one of the best I can think of is one called the boring accountant.
Are you enjoying that? Nah. Needs garlic.
Have you done , The Fantome Raspberry Blower of old London Town , yet.
Phantome
@@Philippakis52 phantom :P
Have you checked out the four candles Sketch? Or the blackberry
And the good news is that the crocodiles ate all the piranhas 🐊🐟
I remembered the ad!
@@travelbugse2829 I seem to recall that it was sharks in the ad, rather than piranhas.
Alan luv, I think for the best understanding of the British and the world, you really need to read Sir Terry Pratchett. He was wise while very funny and took what you thought you knew and gently wobbled the foundation too make you think. This is an adaptation of his first Discworld book, The Colour of Magic, second part to this on here. It's not as good as the Hogfather and Going Postal but OK.
If u haven't covered it. Please watch the four candles sketch.
Loving the different play on words, it's an amazing sketch.
That was the first 2 Ronnies sketch I covered. I think this was the 12th or 13th I've done to this point. Love em all.
@@TheEclecticBeard I ran a search just after typing this. I watched your vid on it.
Thanx
If you crossed an Englishman with an American you’d end up with an Ozzie.
alligators? in Australia?
Not many people know the difference.
Don't get like that, or they'll think we Australians have no sense of humour.
Rabies, "pack" of dingoes in Australia?
A great sketch
Please please please
react to Ronnie Barker in the sitcom. Porridge. Set in a British Gaol. It also stars Richard Beckinsale from the sitcom Rising Damp
I've got 2 episode reactions to it on my members discord. It's a no go on youtube, pretty well instablocked.
Blankty blanks 70’s aussie version playlist is well worth looking at.

Rolf Harris fan club 🙈 even they knew! 😂😂
A subset of the Jimmy Saville fan club
@@craigfowler7098 Rolf Harris was found innocent later.
@@RossNixon no smoke without fire
I bet those sandwiches will fly off the shelves.
You couldn't to that sketch now. You would be called raciest.
Don't forget homophobia as they made that mincing joke. Maybe throw in an accusation of colonialism as well because they were offensive to the natives.
I swear the woke people have no sense of humour. Maybe this is why they hate comedy so much, they are jealous that other people can laugh at something and so that thing must be destroyed.
Well, you must admit, that breakfast line WAS. Accusing anyone of cannibalism, even then... •shakes head•
Yeah, the term abbo would have got this pulled. Also the Rolf Harris fan club line 😂😂
@@BWFCLVAREY The Rolf line’s more appropriate now than when it originally aired. 🤪
This is not really reaction material, but I know how much you love Rik Mayall. Here he is reading a Roald Dahl story on Jackanory back in the 1980s. Jackanory was a kid's TV programme where famous people would read a book and it was often filmed live. Rik puts his own special mark on the story ua-cam.com/video/niL_h6kYPbk/v-deo.html
👍😂😂😂❤
Did you ever see Monty Python ?
Can’t beat 2 ronnies
You have had to live in Australia... particularly the outback to understand the Aussie flies - there are millions of them... they wear corks on their hats to ward off the flies, and constantly wave flicking flies off themselves they call it the Aussie wave! Dunnies... toilet... Kookabura birds that laugh... Dingo.... wild dogs. Mince about (walk-about.... wandering off) Billabong... water hole. Wowzer..or a buldger...useless! Drongos... you guys..... Poms... what the Aussies call Brits... Australia was originally a penal colony in the 1700's and the English sent all their convicts there... their papers were stamped P O M E (Prisoner of Mother England) later shortened to POMS or POMIES! Great people with wonderful sense of humours... this is typical Aussie slang!
Players navy WHAT?????
Cigarettes
Players Navy Cut.
My grandfather smoked them.
Cut cigarettes or tobacco.
Not a rude word then?
@@wesleyrodgers886 My did as well. Players or Senior Service. Never smoked until he went in the Navy when he was 17 in WW2. But you got a free allowance so he started. Didn’t give up until he was 60.
Being an Australian we don't have Aligators we have Crocodiles ,and that is a stereotype that Australia is the most dangerous country in the world , well it ain't we are the least dangerous continent / country , 1 Africa 2 north America 3 Russia 4 Australia
Russia isn't a continent. It's a country that spans two continents - Europe and Asia.
I@@chrisaskin6144 well I do know that , but what I meant was country my bad my excuse is that I've had a Stroke several years ago well actually I had a stroke & heart attack pretty much at the same time , well I was a bit angry at the assertion that Australia is the most dangerous Country it's like a game of Chinese whispers 1 person spouts a lie on the internet then all the stupid people just take what was said as verbatim , in Australia if you go camping at a condoned site you don't need a gun you don't need to hang your food high to stop bears wolves from invading your camp , what I'm saying is that it's pretty safe place travelling around Australia , sure things can happen , In america you need 2 not feed the bears we have the same rules here to not feed the animals , all the weaponry you need with camping in Australia is a walking stick , the animals are more scared of you than you of them .
The 45,222 total gun deaths in 2020 were by far the most on record, representing a 14% increase from the year before, a 25% increase from five years earlier and a 43% increase from a decade prior.
WELL, FOSTERS AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 gives it away somewhat,and it being a Brit comedy,we don't do amerkan,
Comic genius - miss them 💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🇺🇦🇺🇦
I don't find this as funny as their other sketches.
Just messaged you on Instagram buddy
