I’m from New Zealand and been in the UK almost 15 years. Took me probably 7 year to realise that “do you ski?” is just another way of asking “are you poor?”
It’s nearly that. It’s more like “are you one of us”? i.e. you have dinner at 7.30 or 8pm not “tea” at 6pm. You prefer rugby to football. You might be a member of a golf club. You go to upper end restaurants. That sort of business. So sort of what you said.

Enjoy your discovery of Dylan! His old shows are magnificent. Sadly, he's a bit too much of a drunk live on stage these days... But I'll always treasure his old shows
His bit about Jason Statham films is so on point. For years my wife and I were in a cold war of trying to sneakily watch more Jason Statham nonsense than the other.
Dylan, you crazy genius, you! Never a dull line with you ❤ For anyone unfamiliar with Dylan's earlier work, I highly recommend seeking out 'Black Books' which also stars the amazing Tamsin Grieg and Bill Bailey. Pure joy right there.
Black Books is one of my favourite sitcoms ever - totally bananas but it doesn't seem bananas somehow - you are just drawn in. Dylan Moran is a genius.
I thought you were using "Irelands" as a verb. Dylan definitely Irelands best and most... comedians never come close. That's what I had already invented for myself. I had to go back and puzzle it out.
Wonderful whimsical surreal flight of fancy. The thing about not knowing who what or why he is but speaking sixteen languages and finding codes in cactus plants while being a secret pastry chef sounds like the Bourne movie franchise.
"Heavy Metal is what happens when a group of people with competitively disgusting appearances come together to try to kill air." I play an Ibanez ICT, usually through a Blackstar HT and of course a Boss ML-2, and I am dying here.
Brilliant and funny af . BTW Irish Class System is a devious thing . I thought it didn’t exist till I went off to Law School early 80s and found out that massive numbers of my classmates had all been to a mere handful of schools in south Dublin .
It's an elusive thing. Tracing my family tree, I found two branches of people who became the late 19th Century wealthy middle classes. But it wasn't permanent, the Irish class system is much more fluid - everyone can collapse down into working class at any moment!
Same as Australia I thought we didn’t have a class system until I was accepted into the exclusive catholic nursing school/ hospital which was more of a finishing school for doctor’s daughters.
I’m still a fan just look at his good stuff and let him get help or not. Not my life it’s his but wouldn’t buy a ticket till he gets it together. Because it’s my life too..
Watched this having breakfast and the bit about smashing your knees with a hammer as an alternative to skiing made me choke on my porridge 😂 Total genius .
I saw him at his most recent tour and I think the audience left feeling worried for him - he'd just separated from his wife and his usual pessimistic curmudgeonliness seemed less of an act.
God I hope Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor are watching this. Jason Staham catching snakes in a dessert, to solve a puzzle that his amnesiac former self set up for him, but if his heart and taint are wired to a child's RC drone controller. And if Jason doesn't solve the problem in time he swallows his eyes throws up his liver. But to win the day he pulls his own eye out, and finds the last clue tattooed to the back of his head. Inexplicably something about this has seduced the poor woman contractually obliged to act as the protagonist, and she falls in love with him, only to find out she also has amnesia and was the one who set up the puzzle torture thing. Jason doesn't care, he rips out his own liver, defuses it, and staples it back inside. And that's the end of Act 1.
Drove for 6 hours to see Dylan in Sydney and paid a lot of money for tickets He was completely pissed on stage and a complete shambles Such a shame because he is brilliant on the right day. I would only pay to see him again if he gives up drinking.
I had a similar couple of experiences with him. First time I saw him he was the funniest person I had ever seen - absolutely amazing - so I pestered my brother to come see him in Edinburgh with me (despite the distance for him) and unfortunately Dylan was in one of his 'off' days. Pissed and distracted. His flow was off and he kept stopping to reset himself and was very slurry. Fair to say my brother never listened to my recommendations again
How sad to hear. I detected his ‘indulgence’ here he jept it together jntil nearly the end of this video when he began reaching (losing track?) Grew up with alcoholism. Brilliant but sad, and determinedly terminal, died too young. 😢
Watched it. Very funny. Very true. Now off to watch Statham's latest film "The Beekeeper". Never realised that bees could be so thrilling and dangerous. Unless you are anaphylactic of course.
He did used to have an alcohol problem but I'm starting to think he was less chasing off withdrawal spiders when he picked up the glass in the first place as he was self-medicating for anxiety. Some people are extremely capable of public speaking but their adrenal gland never gets the memo. I used to have that problem public speaking so I'm just saying it's a possibility
I did a bit of skiing at the little ski club in the Lake District. Some snobby git asked me when I was going "proper" skiing. He looked at me down his nasal black run whilst saying it.
I just woke up and was in a bad mood then I heard 'those films are unimprovably stupid and suddenly the whole day looks a lot better. I wish Dylan Moran hadn't retired from stand up he's a genius. 8UT sorry for capital letters Tom Petty was doing .... some kind of talking heads thing on MTV he was hilarious when he was serious and wrote an impromtue sp probably song about The Titanic and where Celine Dion should be ...... never watched the film think de Caprio had something to do with it I have a Pekingese know what he sort of looks like, also worth a listen RIP TP. This was great.
I have to take issue with Scandinavians and metal bands. It’s not that Scandinavians like them so much, everyone else likes them, and people around the world learn Scandinavian languages because of it. But the guy is a genius.
Please don't try to understand skiing. It's so much fun. Just try it. If you waste your time thinking about it you will realize it truly is just about the dumbest thing we've come up with in a long time. Either way go spend hundreds of dollars to ride some sticks down a cold mountain you will love it.
Dylan Moran on the British Class System | Yeah Yeah | Universal Comedy. 26.11.23. He was amusing. anyone recall him jn sean of the dead...his costar was featured in the very much underrated some guy who milks people....
Ireland is much closer to America when it comes to class. There is old money and new money but everyone just gets on with it and getting ahead is the name of the game. I have Oxbridge educated older relatives in the UK. They are lovely people but people like plumbers and brickies are alien species to them. It's so weird.
Hmmm…amnesia…half way through a humorous diatribe on the class system - he veers off, having forgotten what he was on about. Never really picked up after that apart from the heavy metal bit.
Pretty sure it's a cut. Watched a couple of vids of other comedians on this same chanel yesterday & they did the same thing - subtle easy-to-miss cuts that make the jokes randomly skip topic.

If you haven't listened to them already I'd recommend Eddie Izzard
We don't see enough of Dylan anymore. He's brilliant.
An inadrkequate comparison for reccomendation
Enjoy your discovery of Dylan! His old shows are magnificent. Sadly, he's a bit too much of a drunk live on stage these days... But I'll always treasure his old shows
Thought Dylan had been teetotal for many years, but still sounds like he’s not. Need to see more, he’s always on top form!
Dylan Moran makes me feel less alone in the world. Im no genuis meself but he speaks my lingo..Its an hilarious comfort😂
"... Why would anyone want to go skiing?
You could sit in the comfort of your own kitchen and break your knees with a hammer..."
🤩😅🤗
I always thought that, too. Good to know it's a common sentiment.
😂😂😂
" . . . You see what I'm saying?". Brilliant!
I know!
I actually watched a band dedicate their tune 'Cross-eyed and Chinless' to the royal family, so the description of folk music is fairly accurate.
Dylan Moran. So glad to see him, hear him. It's been several years. Love to see the changes those years have brought him. Oh, yes, I laughed.
Legendary ! No one flows like him, total genius !

It's really sad. Political correctness is the death of comedy.

I saw him live, a few years ago. A 90 minute show, but it went by like it was 25 minutes. I’ve never had an experience like it…
Is he still a complete mess now
"Little pots of toasted death!"

Best description of Heavy Metal ever 😂
This finally explained jason statham's appeal to me. Grateful to everyone who made this possible.
Nobody does random better than Dylan Moran.
His very name is an anagram of random... and some other letters

I went skiing once, for a week! I was falling over all the time. I discovered the meaning of anxiety!! Never again!!
the skiing gag was LOL 😂
i’m very clumsy so that’s always been why I’ve never seen any point (also freezing cold)
I watched one of his work in progress sketches in Edinburgh (Gilded Balloon). Funniest thing I had seen since black books. A comic genius.
As someone who Fed up their knee snowboarding... I have to agree! 😂
Unmatched intellectual comic adroitness. No one else comes close, prove me wrong.
Every line is genius.
Owen O'Neill is another not-well-known Irish gem. Part poet, part actor, part comedian. Utterly brilliant. Have loved Dylan too for decades.
"You become a blob, you outsource your masculinity..." 😂
Awesome
I've got a new purpose and focus for my midlife crisis from this advice

Needs to go cold turkey

That was just such a great Dylan Moran line.
Reminds me of The Gollux and his "indescribable hat".
"Cacti." It's a class thing.
Brilliant😂
His knees were wobbling and his hand was shaking
Alcoholism
Ok. That was good. Legit good...
I enjoy skiing very much, but I do have stainless steel screws in both knees now.
Ha, me too! Still worth it :)

Hey Universal Comedy. Pleeeeaase change how you end these videos. We don't need a heart attack every time it's done.
He's pissed isn't he?
Classic 🎉😂❤
I noticed Dylon's hand kept shaking. I doubt he was nervous. I hope it's some sort of drug withdrawal symptom and not a health problem.
Probably tremors from alcohol. I noticed too and it’s really sad no matter what it’s from.

Ireland absolutely has a class system. It's just not explicit.
It doesn’t have anything like the uk. No aristocracy or people with silly titles like Lord this or sir that.
Its much more recent than the UK's. Mostly rose in the 1990s early 2000s boom. But its nouveau-riche mostly, so is that a "system"?
@@mango2005similar to America, whereas it’s much more recent whereas the U.K. has had centuries and centuries of it.
Irish class system:
Most people
Business owners
West Brits
Landed gentry
