@@racheladkins6060 never win because of Brexit? What planet are you on?? Sam Ryder graciously accepted the Ukraine win (quite rightly) last year and without that situation the UK entry was adored enough to win. Sam Ryder built bridges. In any event a lot of Eurovisioners respect the UK for making a stand; the ESC is not the EU And if Europe still "hates our guts", who gives a shit?
Once in a generation, someone comes along who can put into song, some of the most profound ideas and mysteries we encounter. John Shuttleworth is that voice
I have been listening to this man in all his various guises for the last nine months the word genius does not begin to scratch the surface I am truly blown away by the talent of this man
JOHN THIS IS MADNESS! You were so right up to the end, but one cup of hot chocolate is always ample, more so if you think about it. Fames gone to you head!
@@ploppysonofploppy6066 that is very true but don’t fret I make my own hot chocolate using very little sugar and I use dark chocolate which is supposed to be healthier. Have a great day!
I have the solution, one and a half cups of tea. Brew the one, and enjoy that full on malty tea-y flavour, ah, then, boil up the kettle again, but just enough water for half a cup, then its that full on malty tea goodness, but only half a cup. No wastage, and the perfect solution to Johns tea problem.
@@FrederickPurcell Well, then you're just going to have to make your peace with a litre flask, or three 'proper' mugs 🤔 There's nowt so tricky as the tea wangle, eh?
I've tried a bigger mug,but it's just not the same.Personally,the thin porcelain round(those square ones,are a sin before God) half pint mug is the only way.I've even chucked my posh cups and saucers in the bin,as i've given up on the idea that the queen might pop round for a brew.
Why John has never represented the UK in Eurovision is quite frankly beyond me.
Norway had first dibs
Indeed!

Every once in a while a song comes along that perfectly encapsulates a profound and universal truth. This is not that song.
It's like Bob Dylan never happened.
This song is definitely My Cup of Tea.
A true phenomenon, regardless of cup size, it's just the way it is.

No. Personally I think 3 is the perfect cups of hot chocolate

Never have truer words been sung :)
I hope it's Yorkshire tea

A genuinely talented British eccentric absolutely unique.
Parts of this remind me of Mike Skinner from the Streets. Early influence?
It’s the same with coffee for me. I have one and a half mugs twice a day, mostly

BRILLIANT!
As a tea drinker, I agree totally. It is a fascinating and somewhat frustrating conundrum. (Lol)
The Big Sports Direct Mug is a good call
Too big for me...really heavy...and it stays too hot for ages, before suddenly going cold...lol...glad if it works for you, though :D
Really good suggestion Danny, I'll dust mine off
It's good to have a mug you can get your fist in when you wash it up.
I often have one and a half cups of tea with my breakfast. It works just fine.
cryingonion2 Ah I've just read your post after posting my solution, ah well great minds think alike, or should that be one and a half minds ha ha!
@@JasmineSurrealVideos Absolutely perfect solution
A bloody genius at work!

Ah the Argos £12-99 Bontempi Organ,every house should have one.
These tunes really hit home 👊
Thank you for bringing this to UA-cam - superb! VBW Glenn x
I want to be so randy and vote the first thumbs down but I can not do it. Anarchy another day then.
I've got the answer to this conundrum. Get a bigger cup and just have the one.
Sports Direct mug required!
@@betty_q Thinking outside box like but what if a mug of Sports Direct isnt enough but two is one to many then you just have one and half
@@FrederickPurcell Well, then you're just going to have to make your peace with a litre flask, or three 'proper' mugs 🤔 There's nowt so tricky as the tea wangle, eh?
john has always been too clever for his own good
LUV ETT!!
I'm here because of twosync
a great wordsmith !
"Punch the air" 😂
Tea tastes best from a white ceramic mug of medium size.
thats my cup of tea
😂😂😂😂
It's all about the quality of the tea if it's good the lad is spot on
"and the same is true of hot chocolate" 🎶😅
Try Barry’s Tea two is never enough !!
That is the gods honest truth best stop at one (try a bigger cup) nice

He makes a good point, aye 🤣
Oof!
One and half is the perfect solution
This is so so good! I am so delighted that the Ricy Tomlinson northern travel show for putting me on to John!!
Get a slightly bigger cup - lol
yeah a sports direct pint mug!
The answer is that one and a half is just right. And you want to make it Darjeeling! edit: I see the comments below verify my 1 1/2 hypothesis.
This is a profound human truth that is rarely acknowledged.
The Mari Wilson version is amazing
