Henning did mention it was a "slow train", so presumably stopped at most/every station en route, as Jodie picked up on.
The difference between flying and going by train is that the train will stop multiple times but you can't get off the flight early. I did not follow the logic in that comparison.
Yeh the plane comparison makes no sense. By Nick’s logic there would be passport control at every single train station. Trains don’t have border security staff travelling on them.
If Nick is interested, the current situation is free movement between countries without border checks, but the Czech Republic joined the free movement area in 2007, so in the mid-90s there would have been border guards boarding the train at the final stop before the border (probably the same travelling from USA to Canada).
Alex Brooker on David's right is a comedy presenter on the ' Last leg' , on Lee's right is Ben Miller , more of a comic actor ( I'd recommend checking out Armstrong & Miller - " world war 2 pilots" sometime . Henning is really great on this show , he's German but has spent quite a while here and is a successful comedian , he gets our sense of humour very well .
For Ben Miller I would recommend Primeval and the first couple series of Death in Paradise.
Alex Brooker was on "The Last Leg " which was good during the 2012 Paralympics but didn't have anywhere to go after that.
well he exploits the british love for (german) stereotypes very well.
Pausing on Pit 😫
that was actually physically painful.
I'm pretty sure the 'Schönes Wochenende' ticket that Henning and Pit bought was specific to Germany. If I'm not mistaken, he is from the west of the country, and the border crossing to Czechoslovakia would have been in the south or the east. Also, Czechoslovakia was in a bit of a state past the Soviet collapse and would itself be dissolved in 1992 (hence Henning didn't know if it was just the Czech Republic yet), so either way, it makes a whole lot of sense why they would have been the first illegal immigrants from Germany: Either because the country was so new (if it was The Czech Republic), or because most illegal immigrants would have gone the opposite direction.
but yeah, just to clarify, the Velvet Revolution, as it was called, was a totally different beast to the dissolution of other Warsaw Pact countries in that it was very peaceful/soft, hence the velvet. Still, I can understand why people would leave out of fear of what could have happened to both the economy and the peace of the country.
Henning is the German comedy ambassador (he's a stand up, and appears on various panel shows). The one about Interpol is another great Henning story. And the guy next to David is Alex Brooker who's one of the co-hosts of The Last Leg but he's also done some documentaries (usually about disability & sport).
There are two possibilities:
1. The train would stop at many stops (since it’s a slow train)within Germany before entering Czechoslovakia so there wouldn’t be any point checking the passports of all the passengers since many of them wouldn’t be crossing the border. Passports would only be checked AT the border
2. The train ran totally within Germany so no passports necessary at all.
Henning and Pit would have taken one of these trains but would stop at one of the border towns where they would get off and try to sneak into Czechoslovakia.
Alex Brooker is a comedian, a presenter and a journalist. He has appeared on 8 Out Of 10 Cats, 8 Out Of 10 Cast Do Countdown and he co-presents The Last Leg with Josh Widdicombe and Adam Hill. Adam and Alex are both amputees and each have a prosthetic leg. Alex also has congenital deformities of both arms and hands. The Last Leg is a great programme.
@@lynnelang3184 he's basically the working class version of David Mitchell 😆
Jodi explained the train part right.
Finally after countless request by countless viewers, you decided to do some Henning. You still need to get round to his best tale, the INTERPOL story.
Spoilers
@@Marky11694 How is suggesting a video to watch a spoiler? Have I repeated anything he said in it? Have I told them what the story involves or where its set, or details of his tale? Please explain to me how saying it's his best tale, clearly in my opinion, others I am sure will disagree with what I said is a spoiler? Is it it the use of the word interpol. Tell me @marky11694, how will they find and identify the video without it. Should they perhaps not watch it given the word appears in the title of the video? Please clarify?
@@dalbhuie_youtubeaddedanumber You specifically said The Interpol Story
@@Marky11694 given the title of the video they will need to look for is
"The Time That Henning Wehn Was Listed as Missing by Interpol! | Would I Lie to You?" In what way does telling them to look for the Interpol Story spoil it?
It seemed like he just didn't want to enjoy watching Henning
Left of David is Alex Brooker from The Last Leg
"Schönes-Wochenende-Ticket" (translated as A Nice Weekend) was/is a solo or a group ticket that you can save up to about 80% buying it. The massive discount comes with only using the slow trains during that particular weekend and expectations of a large number of the population taking advantage of it. If you don't mind a bit longer and slower travel time, you can find many picturesque villages/places where you can take a break from the hastiness of our times. It just need to be planned well. Many options. (Any Germans here, please correct me, if I got something wrong.)
That being said, I think the train ticket is only valid in Germany, so they weren't planning on travelling to Czech Republic at all (that's why they didn't bring their passports). Couple of the train stations on route were probably quite close to the border and Henning with Pit were just being cheeky adventurous young men, got off the train and headed for Czechia. (In for a penny, in for a pound. What's the worst that can happen?) 😂
I’ve got trains across Europe. Trains stop at boarder stations and boarder guards (and dogs) will get on the train and do spot checks. I caught a train from Vienna to Paris, so lots of checks, all on board the train.
Tell us you live in a country without a proper intercity passenger train service without telling us you live in a country without a proper intercity passenger train service
The train stops many times in Germany before reaching Czechi.
Should have started with WILTY's ''Henning Wehn Interpol'' video. So funny !!
Surely the ticket situation is obvious? The train might have 10 stops for example before entering another country. You might only need to go 2 stops, so no need for your passport. On a plane, it's not like you could have got off in mid-air before entering the UK, and that's the reason you were asked for your passport before getting on the plane :)
Henning Wehn is very popular on the comedy circuit and we've seen him three times at our local theatre,thats three seperate titled tours. He is very funny and takes the piss of the british culture as well as the german culture.He did say he never drives and always uses public transport. My wife met him in the foyer after the show,autographs,photos and he is a nice bloke. Started off as a rep for Wycombe Wanderers football club ,then one night went to a pub,saw a stand up comic,and had a go!! THe rest is history.He does well in the UK. Sell out tours.
He's half of the comedy duo, Armstrong and Miller. Ben Miller was a scientist. He did a PhD in solid state physics. His doctoral thesis was named, "Novel Quantum Effects in Low Temperature Quasi Zero-Dimensional Mesoscopic Electron Systems". I would need a degree to understand that sentence. His girlfriend at the time (at Cambridge University) was a pre-fame Rachel Weisz. He joined the Cambridge Footlights, a famous breeding ground for actors and comedians. He has had several comedy series with his partner in comedy, Alexander Armstrong. Miller has appeared in many films and tv series, notably "Death In Paradise" as the main protagonist, DI. Pode, and in "Professor T", as Professor T. Both are excellent and fun detective series. He has also appeared on QI several times.
Ben Miller is a comedian and actor, who has been in many shows and films. You have reacted to him before as one half of Armstrong and Miller - WW2 Pilots.
The train wasn't going across the border, but Henning and Pit got off the train at the border town to cross over on foot.
We once went on a family holiday and my elderly mother in law forgot her passport! Fortunately we live close to the airport so my eldest son was able to rush to her house and pick up her passport in time to get her on the flight.
The guy Jodie found familiar is a comedian called Alex Brooker.
The Easter Onion!
It always makes me laugh that Henning has such a British way of talking but in a German accent.
You could get on a train in Germany, and when it hit the border, it stopped, then people would go through customs and change money as it was before the universal Euro across Europe.
Now you can travel freely across Europe with no border checks.
at least most parts of europe, not russia or uk.
@@karstenbalamagi8463 Neither of which is in the European Union.
Pause, comment, rewind, continue. You are missing so many jokes. Peace.
They didn't cross the border on the train, if you remember.
Thanks for this. Good reaction,as usual, though not using the "5-second rewind" cost you there because you paused it during the PIT/PETE pronunciation at the moment he said "Otherwise I would have said.." and then you spoke and,on returning, the first word we all heard was PETE, which drew a huge laugh from the audience but, understandably, nothing from you as it was the final word of the joke..lol The best joke would have meant nothing to you but when this German guy mentioned "Penalties" meaning a fine, the audience roared with laughter as Lee said "We all know about Germans and Penalties" as Germany CONTINUALLY knocked England out in major Football Tournaments on Penalties after the teams Draw the game.😀
They check your passport on a plane because it is the only destination...trains have many stops, just because you get on it doesnt mean youre going to the final destination.
Someone obviously doesn't know how trains work.
henning wegn is a rarity, he is a german comedian lol, the stereotype of germans in the UK is the germans are not known for their sense of humour. i get the slow train ticket. back when i was younger you could buy a eurorail train ticket if under 26 years old, it lasted for a month and gave you unlimited travel. many people got caught out boarding express trains and having to pay
Jodie's right. The train stopped at many stations before crossing the border and passports were checked at the crossing. Only people still on the train at the last stop before the border would need a passport.
Comparing flights to train journeys like they're the same in every aspect now, are we?
Alex Brooker is a comedian and one of the commentators on the show: The Last Leg
For me his best story on the show is the interpal story
In mainland Europe you generally dont have to show your passport when traveling by road between EU countries
Sounds like the ticket is one in which can only use regional trains which are the ones with lots of stops at smaller places rather than an Intercity train which only stops at the main places. There will have been a stop close to the border where they will have got off at.
Of course the situation is different now as both are part of the Schengen area which means no passport checks so just like taking a domestic train. Flying is the same, although airlines might still need photo ID to board, but when landing you just walk out the airport without checks. There are cases where there will check ID though, like during Covid of when there was an attack in Paris and France but where checking people at the border. I did have to show my passport while crossing from Denmark to Sweden on the train, not sure why they did that day but agents just got on and checked everyone at the 1st station in Sweden.
Have you seen the last leg, that's where Alex Brooker is mostly known for
You have seen him in the film ( Johnny English)
Country a to Country b you need a passport. A slow train would stop at every station for local commuters but might continue on a line across a border or borders in Europe.
Where does the Orient Express begin and end?
Orient Express Route
What is the route of the Orient Express? The original Orient Express route travels from Paris across Europe through Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, Budapest, and Bucharest before arriving in Istanbul, so a passport would be given if going a long way across the route.
There's nothing essentially implausible about Henning's story. After all, it wouldn't be the first time Germans have gone into Czechoslovakia without passports.
"Und now .. der funny story begins." Love Henning.
Am I right in that there is a place in America where you have to drive through Canada to get to it, if you are driving there? Somewhere in Minnesota?
Do you still need a passport even when travelling from America to America?
Yeah, Ive heard about that. You can get there by boat across American waters, but by road it goes through Canada for a bit.
(And of course, there's also Alaska 😂)
Jodi is 100% accurate about the passport and Canada… just like Czech
Land borders are much easier to cross on foot... Than with air travel to another country... As you must have a valid passport to even board the plane before departure... Plus if the country you're visiting requires you to have a visa or vaccinations... These must also be obtained well before you travel... However... Germany has borders with nine countries... Austria... Belgium... Czech Republic... Denmark... France... Luxembourg... Netherlands... Poland... Switzerland... Spanning more than 2,300 Miles... So you obviously can't have a border checkpoint every single mile... So realistically speaking... Crossing the border into another country that's not at an official checkpoint... Must be relatively easy... Mountain ranges and some large natural bodies of water can discourage illegal entry into another country... But there are many opportunities still available for those determined enough to cross those borders illegally... Henning Wehn and his friend were just unlucky!... That's all.
The guy on the left with the beard is Alex Brooker and he is best known on the TV series The Last Leg - which might be on Brit Box... not sure because it is a channel 4 show.
Wrong person. She was talking about Ben Miller.
@@rikmoran3963 Ha. I did think that but she said the guy on the left on the other team. Ben Miller was on the same team. But yes - probably more likely to be recognised by Americans as he is an actor.
Well you managed to miss the funny bit there about Pit….with a pointless interruption.
Love these two but they do it very often. Talking over the video.
Same old story
It'd be fine if they rewind a few seconds after pausing but they never seem to

You can be a few miles imto another country before a border patrol entry exit gates on a train. I presume this train back in the day would have been a German owned train that had a slow run into the border crossing where Henning and his mate got off an moving slow train., hence being stopped by jeep. The US pre landing passport control from the UK on board a plane has been included for UK pre landing paasport control from the US.
Oh Nick!. Nick, Nick, Nick...we already had this issue with David Wiese (Visa). Wehn is pronounced like "Vain".
its Alex Brooker from the last leg and Henning is a stand up comic
thats actor and comedian BEN MILLER
you may have seen him as the original
detective in DEATH IN PARADISE
Alex Brooker is the comedian that looks familiar 👍🏼
Nick you could get a plane from San Francisco to San Diego then head for the Mexican border.
I was on a coach in Austria and it decided to go into Germany for a while. I didn't know that was going to happen and didn't have my passport with me, so it's entirely possible.
You can get a train from Germany all the way down to Italy travelling through multiple countries
It's your job to make sure if you need a passport.
Things were different back then and besides they got off earlier than the border, they didn't leap off as the train was running. You missed the penalty joke which was about soccer.
Nick ..... Pity you.
Ben Miller
You may have seen sketch of two pilots who talk like today's youth
You don't always need a passport to cross borders in Europe, I went from Belgium to France on a train, and nobody checked
Plus they can go through multiple countries… do you have an immigration agent for each country in Germany when you board the train? Of course not.
@richardbetts816 The Schengen Area is something that I miss, due to the stupidity of my country
@@aledjangoThe UK was never in the Schengen area. The Schengen area still exists.
@@avb3479 I still used the area, but fair point
Henning is a rare animal...A German that's funny! He's got a great "way" about him. 👍
Wir Deutschen sind von München bis Frankfurt für unseren Sinn für Humor bekan
I think Henning cane to the UK to work at a lower league football club, in something like marketing. He started doing stand up here, playing a fair bit on the British trope that Germans have no sense of humour.
the passport is checked when you cross the border or after the last german stop. The only train your concern would be true is one going from on place with no stop to another place in the other country... thinking of it.. that really is a plane.
i know it looks like it from America but european countries aren't THAT small.
He's German. He got the train in Germany and got off again still in Germany. No passport required as he travelled within his own country. However, they then decided to cross into Czechoslovakia (on foot, not on the train), for which they would have needed a passport (at least!) as that was in Eastern Europe at the time :)
For info Henning’s surname is pronounced ‘Vane’. 9:13
Want to add my voice to those telling you to check out Armstrong and Miller's sketches. The WW2 pilots is a good place to start.
9:12 bullseye- if you wanted to ki''' the joke 💪- and yes, talking helps listening. sorry, just go back 5s by pressing left on your keybord
You can go through another country without stopping to go from your country to go back in to your own again I expect. Europes like that!
I feel so much tension between u guys in this video. 😢
Western European trains did not enter the former USSR, he would have got off that train and then have to pass through border control. The ticket he used was a popular train ticket which allowed for travel through any Western European country before the wall completely came down in 1992, the end of the USSR. Most Eastern European countries would allow entry of Western Europeans because all the USSR regimes and influenced governments were collapsing and they wanted Western European tourists to enter and put foreign money into their economies. Had the same experience in Yugoslavia in 1988 with border guards pointing automatic machine guns at us when we docked on a ferry from Italy.
Czechoslovakia was never in the USSR, and the Berlin wall coming down was the end of East Germany, not the Soviet Union. You need to brush up on your history.
@@wallythewondercorncake8657 you need to read text properly...where did I say Czechoslovakia was in the USSR? It was under USSR governance from the Kremlin in Russia....You need to learn to read properly and as you've probably never been to any country under USSR governance...before the wall came down....I'd refrain from putting up stupid comments.
@@royevetts4900 Clearly isn't what you said, and you're still wrong about the USSR coming down when the wall did. Just admit you're wrong, man up. You're embarrassing yourself.
@@wallythewondercorncake8657 as I thought...never been to any country under USSR prior to the wall coming down...which is a euphemism for the collapse of the communist system under USSR influence and governance. Go back to school...you know nothing. Typical Wally.
If it was back in the 80's or 90's things weren't as strict as they are now.
well do You need your passport to get on a train the usa?
His name is pronounced as Henning Ven
germany boarders the other countries .you dont need passport in europe wven travel inside your own country
Wehn is pronounced Wane
So you misspell his name in the title, you don’t listen to all of it hence your confusion with the passport, you looked very disinterested during most of it, just another reaction from your production line as far as your concerned. Quite disrespectful from you today
Username checks out 🙄
Blimey, are your nether regions giving you jip today? Be nicer please, they are Americans and don’t catch every nuance of this sort of comedy, although they do try. Love Henning, he’s so funny.
Germany borders what was Czechoslovakia and is now the Czech Republic. He didn't have to cross any border to reach Czechoslovakia.
He did.. border police would get on the train to check passports..
@@stevenriley6597 which is why he got off the train at the border.
That comment makes no sense, obviously you have to cross a border to get from one country to another
@@BrianMac2601 if you're in Germany, and go to Czechoslovakia there is only one border, the one he got off the train to avoid.
That's the whole point of the story, he was detained for trying to cross the Czechoslovakian border.
If you're playing linguistic games. You can reach Czechoslovakia without entering it.
@daveofyorkshire301 exactly, he had cross one border but your original comment you literally say he didn't have to cross a border.
Also you clearly weren't paying attention, they were detained on the Czech side and taken back to the German border
His only funny joke is that he’s a German comic in the UK .
A plane is not stopping at different airports in the US before going to the UK , a train is stopping at different stations in Germany before crossing the border, it’s not hard 🙄
His name is Ben Millar (Miller?). Known for the Armstrong and Mill(um) Show.
and The Worst Week Of My Life. Underrated TV show.
Along with 30%/40% of Women that I have met in my 70 English years, Jodie doesn't seem to know her "left" from her "right". as she said " to the Left of David "" which was the Lady. lol
There is a MUCH better Henning Wein story on a trip he said he took involving Spain and Morocco which is in My Top 5 WILTY stories ever.
ENJOY Guys:)
Murder in paradise ?
@@paulbromley6687 And "Professor T".
That's because you're coming from the US. If you're jn the EU he may have not needed it. Technically you can travel from Dublin to Athens without a passport depending on your medium of travel.
Of course, Henning Wehn is the German Ambassador for Comedy in Great Britain because Germans are known for not being funny and are often wrongly accused of having no sense of humor.😉😜
