So funny! I grew up in Belfast during the troubles and I love people taking the piss, Billy Connolly was brilliant at it - even tho it was wild we had the best childhood, I think living through it made us a bit different, more together and resolute. I'm glad it's behind us (mostly) and the next generation can really start to push on for a more togetherness that we just never had. Protestant and Catholic living side by side would be a dream come true, still a long way to go but the times are changing.
I worked in Northern Ireland in 1985-1988 and never saw as much as a fight in a pub!! Apart from one time around April 86 we were selling aerial photographs at a border town called Clady...at 9.30 we were in the spar shop at the side of the army border crossing at 9.40 the place was blown sky high...but was still some of the best years of my life and still keep in contact with some of the best people I have ever met 👍🛎
Watched this special with my granny, she's typically avert to anything even a bit offensive, but both of us were in tears with laughter, top stuff Kevin ✌️
My first trip to Belfast, we went into a bar and my friend said "Get the beers in" so I walked upto the bar and said "5 pints of lager please". The bartender stopped and stared at me. Then he said "We don't serve the British in here". I froze. I turned to look at my friends and they were all laughing like hyenas. I turned back around to the bartender and he said "Sorry yer friend set you up, 5 pints yer say". Bunch of fannies.
English is not my native, and I'm self-tutor so sometimes I have difficulties to understand Kevin's accent but dear Lord... whenever I know what is he talking about I pissing my pants with laugh :D I hope that some new show will come out soon, something about current situation with... you know guys what. Kevin - you are the king of stand-up.
For someone that isn't a native English speaker, you typed that very well. I'm glad you can enjoy Kevin like the rest of us! Keep practicing brother :D
kevins accent is Glasgow.. I am only 12 mile away so understand him easy. Now go to Dundee which is an hour drive away, Im sure that is a different language.. Edinburgh is different again. You dont need to travel far in Scotland far a massive accent change.
Some people think you shouldn't mention the war in the north of Ireland but didn't the folks get through it with some seriously dark humour..fair play to them
Grew up in Belfast 70s 80s And proud ✌️🇮🇪 PS , During the 80s in Belfast when you bought clothes!!! You always made Sure they fitted ! Because you didn't know if the shop would be there the next day 😂👍✌️🇮🇪
@@Garngad_bhoy yes robert be the same here or you would have been left with no knee caps😆😆 thank god things have moved on,still some axx holes like but no where near as bad robert 👍👍
@@maggisteele4342 glad to hear it aye the area I was brought up in was ,& still is known as little Ireland so I have a an idea of what it must've been like for you
I have always found 80s retro style funny because having lived trhough the 80s remember it being called the decade style forgot at the time. Kevin brings up how it could be even more absurd brilliantly. Just been on a thread talking about how there shouldn't be a limit to what can be the topic of a joke, because we need to remember our history and have how ridiculous some of it was hammered home. Thos thinking from this I am trying to belittle the stuggles leading to the IRA, not even close. But I think anyone would say we are better now they have disbanded.
@@sandwich2473 I think the 80s was supposed to be different because it was those adopting the fashions saying it. As always I reserve the right to be wrong. I found the socks thing in the 80s strange. A man could wear 1 pink sock without comment if the other was a differnt colour, but 2, that was not good. Yet socks were still sold in matching pairs.

Was in a bar in belfast yesterday got a pint £5.70 , I said to my mate we're gonna need to take a mortage out to get drunk here he couldn't stop laughing
Fucking braw. The honourable Mr Bridges is a phenomenal national treasure but this is too perfect. "Belfast - now tha's an accent, makes us soond like Michael Bubble" ⚔💙💚⚔🤣🤣🤣🤣
Overall, I find it fascinating that people can laugh about it. Not sure this kind of joke wouldve worked in Belfast today, but my point is: it wouldnt have worked either in scotland 30 years ago. Things change, wounds heal.
Police Station ? Lived in a few..Then the SAS got interested at Ballygawley. Must have been like the Riverdance in that van when they were gettin minced !!
You got it wrong...about ballygawley....it was the imperialist forces bus that got minced there..when you believe in things you don't understand then you suffer...🙊
Good old Belfast at it's best. Nothing beats taking the piss out of your mates. Other countries would be offended while we piss ourselves laughing at it

Crown Bar in Belfast is a quality boozer as is the Rock Bar
15 quid for a bowl of stew in the crown bar! Yeah real quality.
Good bars, bit dodgy for a paratrooper though the rock bar, in the eighties and nineties. Alright with a norn iron accent though.
some jokes espec about the hunger strikers are hard to listen to but hell I believe in free speech
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣

And people like Lee Evans 😂🙄
