My mom would do this with game rules. Like, I’d come to visit for a few days each year and we’d play a lot of card games, board games etc. And almost every time there’d be some slight variation, like having to draw an extra card under certain circumstances, but she’ll INSIST that we always played it that way. 🙄
This is where that comes from!! 😂 Was mumbling 'clean as you go' for about a minute whilst cooking christmas dinner, till my nephew started staring at me weirdly... English is not our mother tongue, so he was righteously confused... But so was I, wondering where I got this from. 😂❤
@@MoniLein-yy2ueI think righteously sounds better though especially in this context! And English isn’t their native tongue! FAH helping people learn English all over the world 😂.
For a moment I almost thought Barry was going to give Anne a gift after wishing her Merry Christmas, but that was only until he popped off the lid and began to devour the contents. Bless his heart though. After all, Barry is still a growing boy.
Anne and Oisin are my favourite FAH characters ❤️ I've had to cancel all Christmas plans because everyone in my house caught the stomach flu, but seeing this sketch today makes me feel like I've had a visit from Father Christmas after all 😊 thank you for this! And merry Christmas
Hope everyone is better in time for a NY celebration, chapoule. I feel for you - I was in that position over one Christmas, it was horrible. But I always do feel happier when I've seen a FAH sketch, so that chimes with me also. Merry Christmas to you!
I missed Thanksgiving due to a nasty bout of Covid and was worried Christmas would be the same as I still felt horrible the 3rd week in Dec. Thankfully, I was well enough (and testing neg) by 12/22 to go to my Mom's and fulfill my annual role as both charwoman and scullery maid while she cooks Christmas dinner for 16. Glad your family is feeling better - Happy Holidays!!
It's extremely bad this year and prevalent. We were in A&E today with it as dehydrated, spewing blood and suffering the whole place was full of sick bowls and people passing out in front of us. It's bad
My husband does Christmas dinner. Every time he cooks his brilliant meals we get this nonsense. I can't work out whether he's just hugely self critical or fishing for compliments!
@@Rex0142kingmy nephrologist says, “no salt - ever. Learn to cook with spices”. I replied, “that’s easy for you to say - you’re ethnic” (Armenian). Fortunately she thought that was funny. I went onto explain i was raised by Irish-American parents raised in the midwest USA. They did not even have Italian-American friends. I finally learned about garlic from them.
Anne's extreme short cuts work so well, I don't usually like them but simply using ALL of Hog's takes to make up one mother-sentence is fantastic. And the apron works on so many levels, parents rejecting a thoughtful presents, merch marketing, and then Hog breaking IN the sketch, while later being Anne again in the outro, I like those little changes in routine. Anne should have sung a carol with Barry !
So good to see Anne, Oisin, and Barry. Like a visit from family to end the year. I can truly understand Anne's sentiment, given all the expectations of Christmas day. But, last night we had a lovely Christmas Eve with my daughter and her family. An English roast dinner with all the trimmings. Her husband, a US citizen now, is originally from Crawley. Enjoyed the peace and quiet of Christmas today (well actually yesterday since it's 12:11 am) . Looking forward to your compilation of the best of videos of 2024. Discovering FAH on You Tube mid-2024 has been a real blessing to me. Getting to see a live show in November was the ultimate joy. I respect, relish, and value your hard work to give us all, your FAHns, a few minutes to laugh and connect every week. To all my FAHriends (I've coined a new word) around the world and to my friends Foil, Arms, and Hog, I wish your all a happy, prosperous, and healthy 2025. See you next year - Mickey
@@Owlet_NightI had to go to a funeral on the 24th of December 😮 it was my uncle. It was a sad family reunion 😭. I commented to one of my cousins that this is going to become a more common occurrence as our parents generation gets older 😢.
Is there anything more perfect than starting the final day of Christmas with a FAH sketch? I’m quite happy I don’t have to sneak-watch it at work or rush to get ready for work this time. 😍 Such a sweet idea that Anne gets a custom-made apron. A clever way to promote your merch, but also cute for the storyline in the sketch! Hope everyone had (and is still having) a wonderful holiday season-enjoy the rest of the day, folks! xx
Oh you guys! This sketch was truly a Christmas present - just giving us a well-balanced dose of what we love about Anne Flanagan & family (yes, that includes Barry). Hope are all spending a lovely holiday season! 💝
The kids really LOVE their school unifoms, don't they? 😁 Always great to catch up with Oisin and his mum! Thanks for the laughs, and happy Christmas to you all!
Truly relatable.. With the phone calls to relatives I barely know when I was younger and my parents just complaining about the guests😂😂Nice merch ad, there, and Happy Christmas, lads! ❤
Lovely to see Anne and the boys again! The "never again!" rant at the beginning felt too real. Barry steals the show along with the cookies, and Oisin is so cute offering the "custom-made present" for his Mum (and what a hilarious way to promote your merch!). Happy FAHlidays to all!
Just watched again and had to comment how well Foil turned Oisíns happiness for getting his mum what he thinks is the perfect present, to his "WTH" reaction when she doesn't want it, great editing from Arms too, when the music cuts out 👏👏👏
The toss of the tin lid and then the noise after was just gold 🤣 imagining what it would be like to be apart of the Anne, Oisin and Barry Christmas haha
Hey guys, just wanted to say thank you so much for al the sketches this year. They were so much fun. It is always a nice little tradition on the Thursday morning 😊 But also wanted to thank you for everything you do on Patreon. And of course the awesome new show Skittish! I really enjoyed it to see it live in Amsterdam. It is always so much fun to greet you guys in person! It may be all be part of what you do but it always feels like you do it with so much sincere an kind energy. So thank you and for now; have a great new years eve! And see you next year on UA-cam, Patreon and hopefully in real live again! And of course also thanks for the awesome FAHns to make it so much fun online! wish you also a happy new year!
I echo your observations of how welcoming and gracious FAH are after a show. When I saw the behind the scenes work that goes in hours before the show, and seeing how hard they work during the show, not to mention jet lag, I know they are exhausted. Yet so gracious to meet their fans. That's character.
I'm a relatively new fan, who has watched most of your video catalog far too quickly, and I was lamenting literally the other day that I ran out of new Anne and Oisin skits when this beauty appeared. Thanks.
No mom would deny that they say "clean as you go" constantly. I just said that to my younger son yesterday. He's going to be house sitting for a professor at his university over winter break and I said that he will probably be expelled when the professor comes back and sees the condition of his house. My son said he would do a complete clean up before the guy comes back -- I said no, clean as you go!
It reminds me of Eid, you offer to help your mother & sister who have taken charge of the cooking with the cooking, you do what you can while they are doing the main cooking stuff, clean the house, wash all the pots and dishes after the meal and much later in the evening they complain you didn't lift a finger. The tradition of phoning relatives for then who you don't even know. Yep all of it in this sketch is exactly the same.
Something I would like to share: I went on a first date with a guy the other day and I forgot to take Armsy‘s photos out of my phonecase…so the guy thought Arms was like my ex boyfriend I hadn’t gotten over yet 😂
I have an amazing beloved who does most of the cooking at home. Christmas dinner was delicious, so I persuaded him to leave the dishes for me to sort today. Only to discover that all the big pans are already done, because the swine cleans as he goes! Talk about a guilt trip!.....also, thanks to waking up twice in the night with my occasional unpleasant arthritis pain, I slept through till 8.45 and now have about four thousand comments to plough my way through! Thanks to all here for making Thursday such fun reading, but obviously most of all to you FAH guys for your talent, generosity and accurate insights. Merry Christmas and fab New Year to everyone. ❤
Just a few corrections to help Oisin avoid the grief next time they have this chat. "I offered to help but you said not to touch anything" to "You did a fantastic job I'm sorry I couldn't help more!" "It was a bit dry I suppose" to "It was delicious don't be so humble!" "You say it all the time" to "Ah sure but you like it right?" I can't save you from the Christmas phone calls though. Just suck it up and make them sport. 😂
Worth staying awake for 2am for (I'm in the US at the moment). Great way to use a sketch for shameless self-promotion! 😁 Nice to see Barry again, and it's spelt "cauliflower". I hope you lads had a great Christmas! 😍👍
„Thank you for commenting every Thursday“ You‘re welcome 😊 Happy Christmas lads AND IN CASE I FORGOT TO SAY THAT: Thank you so much lads. Thank you for another year. Sending love and happiness over ❤️
I knew before she opened it that it would be the Clean As You Go apron! I am starting to pre-empt your jokes 😆 Forgot what day it was so missed the release of this, tho i was just thinking yesterday that i need a new apron and may have to get one at your show (if you bring merch to NZ?)... Cannot wait 😊 Thanks you three (and🦆) for all you do. See you in the New Year! 🥳
Love the product placement. Brought my mum the apron last year, don't think she was happy with me. This year she got a ticket to see you in June. I'm trying my best to get her to became a fahn.
It's ironic that I've being looking forward to having two weeks off from work and having a couple Thursdays where I can watch your new sketch just when it's released without worrying about exploding into laughter (cause I'm at home and not in a quiet office) 😂 Problem is that when I'm off work I lose track of what day it is so here I am watching this sketch 3 hours later than I had planned 😆 Anyway, I've been missing Anne, Oisin and Barry and I loved this one ❤ Especially the end with the apron! It's always extra funny when you go out of character right at the very end and burst into laughter 🥰
Husband got me that apron, I think it was Mother's Day. Definitely a favorite. And well worth the wait all the way here in the SE of America. But, at ours, he is the Clean As You Go guy. And I love him for it! 😊
How sweet of the boy to give his mother a, even personalised, gift. Don't think he would have chosen that sentence, so in reality, she would have been pleased and the boys heart would be unharmed and there was finally a real heartwarming moment betweem them.
Good-morning lads and Merry Christmas for yesterday! I hope you had a wonderful time with your families and ate plenty of mince pies 😋 (I mean, you're still growing boys, you need to keep your energy levels up!) Thank you for keeping us happy every Thursday 😊
Was a bit worried lads... This didn't show up on Facebook! 😢 Luckily I thought I'd double-check UA-cam. Thanks for rounding off my Christmas perfectly. ❤ Can't wait to see what amazing things you'll share in the new year! 😊
Great sketch lads! I hope everyone has had a lovely time and you go on to have a great New Year! I'm going to spend the next week eating chocolate, cheese and leftovers and watching films! Merry Christmas! 🎉
@@SamFAHntha hmm idk bc their perception is different than mine most of the time😅 but I'm pretty sure the book party would be high up in the top 10😁 what about you, Sam? I guess it would be the NZ immigration sketch for you😊
I love that apron. It's perfect to keep wood dust from your clothes. It's a pity Oisin couldn't have it signed, like mine. Cheers from the Netherlands!
"I have never said that" - stated Anne Flanagan and the "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" stopped. 😂 Happy Christmas guys. I will be waiting for your next wonderful perfirmances impatiently. And see you in Copenhagen very soon. ❤
Spent the last 2 days at my Mom's as prep cook, charwoman and scullery maid while she made Christmas dinner for 16, including gluten intolerant & food allergic guests. We feel Anne's pain!
Perfect way to end the god awful year with a dose of Anne and Oisin plus Barry. Made my day ,thanks boys for all the great laughs and Happy 2025 to you .🎉🎉🎉😂🤣
That part where she says "I never said that" was so perfect. I have had this sorta thing with my mom and it just baffles me every time.
So it's not just my mother who randomly decides to rewrite history
@@BlinkedAgain Interesting, I concur.
Pretty sure they genuinely forget!
My mom would do this with game rules.

There’s also the opposite case when she comes out with a saying I haven’t heard before in my life and she says “I’ve always said that!”
Anne, I am on Oisin's side here. You literally say that every day. Sometimes I hear that in my head when I am cooking 😂
@@ananyachatterjee197 I put myself in charge of Christmas dinner this year and those words never left me. Even when I wanted them to 😂😂

Please excuse me, I have to rock in the fetal position over this.
Me too 😅 and it actually helps me to keep my home cleaner. Thank you Mrs. Flanagan ❤
I'm very untidy in the kitchen. I hear Anne nagging at me whenever I'm cooking.
The "4 hours-8 hours-27 hours" types of jokes get me every time I love them 😂
@87worms Same! I'm always looking forward to them, no Anne-Oisin sketch is complete without them!!
Sameeee the rapid cuts get me every time
Me too, love that.
Watch "Video games with your parents" and see how long Annie claims to have been gardening. It's insane.
I love those too!
Aww, Oisín is adorable when he's excited about giving his gift!
@@kristintaggart9381 Adorable right?! I started feeling bad for him, but then he started laughing and that was that 😂
he's a very sweet boy really
@@SamFAHnthaI'm still feeling bad for him, his mother didn't seem to have any presents for Oisin?
@@a__cat___asis I assumed he got them beforehand
@@SamFAHnthathe way my heart broke for him when she said “i never said that”
Truly an Anne & Oisin (and Barry) sketch is a Christmas present! Thank you for all the laughs this year! :)
Thanks for watching!
Barry HAD to invite himself in! 😂 It wouldn't be a Flanagan Christmas without Barry
I can't help feeling a little bit sad though. What is Christmas like in Barry's house? It's obvious all his food comes from the Flanagans.
This is where that comes from!! 😂 Was mumbling 'clean as you go' for about a minute whilst cooking christmas dinner, till my nephew started staring at me weirdly... English is not our mother tongue, so he was righteously confused... But so was I, wondering where I got this from. 😂❤
Same here: I also quote Anne in English when I‘m talking to my kids.
He was « rightfully » not « righteously » confused :)
@@MoniLein-yy2ueI think righteously sounds better though especially in this context! And English isn’t their native tongue! FAH helping people learn English all over the world 😂.
@ it’s not mine, either, but everyone can learn. Many non-native speakers speak English far better than many native speakers. I’m just offering help.

Hope you all had a Happy Christmas 2024.

And to you too! See ya next year in ze comments! ❤️
Around the 00:24 point when asks his opinion, I expected a reply of, “If I wanted that opinion, I would have given it myself.”
Oisín you should know by now - NEVER be honest 🤣
AND OH LOOK IT'S OUR DARLING BARRY!!! It's like you knew if you didn't include him we'd riot 😂
i think fahns actually said so quite clearly in comments 😂
Love it! Heard every single sentence over the last couple of days 😂
Happy Christmas to you, hope you enjoy a little break. 😊
@@miriam2526 it's just FAH too relatable 😂
@SamFAHntha 🤣
Love the confirmation of the moving mole 😂
Love the product placement. Brought my mum the apron last year, don't think she was happy with me. This year she got a ticket to see you in June. I'm trying my best to get her to became a fahn.
Thanks fir the videos guys, you've kept me entertained for the last year 😀
Our pleasure 🥰
Finally, Mrs Flanagan and the boys! My favorite characters ❤
Rumour has it Oisín’s mum has put in her order for Christmas 2025’s Turkey at the local farm shop.
I'll save Oisin the trouble and call Tomsey Buggle myself. Haven't heard from him for ages!!
Anne Flanagan: he could do with some cheering up
It's ironic that I've being looking forward to having two weeks off from work and having a couple Thursdays where I can watch your new sketch just when it's released without worrying about exploding into laughter (cause I'm at home and not in a quiet office) 😂 Problem is that when I'm off work I lose track of what day it is so here I am watching this sketch 3 hours later than I had planned 😆 Anyway, I've been missing Anne, Oisin and Barry and I loved this one ❤ Especially the end with the apron! It's always extra funny when you go out of character right at the very end and burst into laughter 🥰
Always setting you up by asking what you want and then telling you to cook it yourself 😂
Anne Flanagan: No one lifted a finger
Husband got me that apron, I think it was Mother's Day. Definitely a favorite. And well worth the wait all the way here in the SE of America. But, at ours, he is the Clean As You Go guy. And I love him for it! 😊
"I've never said that" oh how universal mothers are
Never ever quote a mam 😂
I enjoy every one of your sketches, lads. Look forward to many many more. Merry Christmas and a very happy new year.
And the same to you
How sweet of the boy to give his mother a, even personalised, gift. Don't think he would have chosen that sentence, so in reality, she would have been pleased and the boys heart would be unharmed and there was finally a real heartwarming moment betweem them.
Good-morning lads and Merry Christmas for yesterday! I hope you had a wonderful time with your families and ate plenty of mince pies 😋 (I mean, you're still growing boys, you need to keep your energy levels up!) Thank you for keeping us happy every Thursday 😊
My god the delivery and timing of "he opened the biscuits..." sent me 😂😂
Spot on! I hope that apron is in your merch shop. Merry Christmas!
Was a bit worried lads... This didn't show up on Facebook! 😢 Luckily I thought I'd double-check UA-cam. Thanks for rounding off my Christmas perfectly. ❤ Can't wait to see what amazing things you'll share in the new year! 😊
Ann Flanagan had a busy morning tidying up after everyone and only got around to Facebook and Instagram now
Oh my ... I love you for giving me so much laughters! Merry Christmas to all
I actualy bought my husband that same gift this year.... custom apron. Mine said 'aged to perfection since 1964' 😏
😂😂😂😅
Barry got through alot of biscuits in that short time. I expect nothing less of him.
@@RhondaofTheVale and I expect nothing more 🤣
I noticed that! Not much left in the tin!! 😂
Great sketch lads! I hope everyone has had a lovely time and you go on to have a great New Year!
I'm going to spend the next week eating chocolate, cheese and leftovers and watching films!
Merry Christmas! 🎉
That sounds absolutely wonderful, I think I'm going to copy your plan there. Happy Christmaaassss ❤️
I'm confused why you are saying 'next week'. That's how I've spent the last four or five days.
Looking forward to seeing the review of the year❤ so excited for this year's top 10!
What do you think is their number one?
Thanks!
@@SamFAHntha hmm idk bc their perception is different than mine most of the time😅 but I'm pretty sure the book party would be high up in the top 10😁 what about you, Sam? I guess it would be the NZ immigration sketch for you😊
@@juliah03 Ohhh the book party one was friggin brilliant! I love all the party ones tbh.
And yup, absolutely, how did you know 😂😂😂😂
@@SamFAHntha oh that was just a wild guess 😜🤣
I love how Oisín's Christmas present was draped over the couch the whole time 😂😂😂
First Rosie, now Margaret being difficult with the dietary choices. Poor Oisín wouldn't dare go meat-free now
I half expected Anne to say "I never said that. Never."
"..."
"But it's good advice, I should start saying it."
Congratulations to the 1 Mio subs🎉 you finally made it - well deserved!
YAHOOOO
Ah come on now Anne, Barry is family at this stage! To be fair I can see why she ran out of christmas spirit!
Did the boys have a go at the brandy again?!
Fantastic guys keep doing what you do xx❤
Merry Christmas
I love that apron. It's perfect to keep wood dust from your clothes. It's a pity Oisin couldn't have it signed, like mine.
Cheers from the Netherlands!
That's a nice Christmas with Anne Flanagan and Oisin albeit a few hours later for me! 😂 Thank you guys for everything this year! ❤
I love when they break character at the end 🤣
Come on now Anne. You do say that... 😂
"I have never said that" - stated Anne Flanagan and the "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" stopped. 😂 Happy Christmas guys. I will be waiting for your next wonderful perfirmances impatiently. And see you in Copenhagen very soon. ❤
Spent the last 2 days at my Mom's as prep cook, charwoman and scullery maid while she made Christmas dinner for 16, including gluten intolerant & food allergic guests. We feel Anne's pain!
Perfect way to end the god awful year with a dose of Anne and Oisin plus Barry. Made my day ,thanks boys for all the great laughs and Happy 2025 to you .🎉🎉🎉😂🤣
I had my apron a few years ago now. Love it! Merry Christmas FAH and everyone!
I love these mum and Oisin sketches. Fabulous, and Happy New Year. 😊
Even our Mrs. Flanagan acknowledges Barry's very nice voice 😊
Hi lads, hope you had a wonderful Christmas..a new Anne, Oisin and Barry sketch, what a present ! ❤
This reminds me of that time when you gifted Foil tickets to your show😅❤
I BEEEPing love that sketch 🤣
@@SamFAHntha we all do!! The rage and the awkwardness😅
@@rose_red12 Perfection 🤣
@@rose_red12 I really don't understand the problem, I'd be euphoric if they gave some to me!
