The deep fried mars bar was invented in Glasgow. I just ate two about ten minutes ago and because they're so small it's easy to forget they're actually 2000 calories each
His delivery is so genuine and real you never know when he’s telling a scripted joke or not his facial expressions make it funny because he isn’t trying too hard he’s my favorite comedian and proud he’s from Scotland 🏴
You are beautiful!
He has a cheeky kind of smile that is endearing.
12 years later, and he's one of the top comedians in the world. Still makes me laugh, and saying anything with a Kevin-style accent makes it so much funnier
For someone so young he just gets comedy. One of the best out there
A lot of the comedians on TV try desperately hard to be funny but are just lame. Kevin is just naturally funny. One of the greatest of the new breed of comedians on TV.
He's actually the best...
Yeah like Jonathan himself
@@Eyeballpaul84
Jonathon is not a comedian...
He's not even mildly amusing...
He's a jerk who with the likes of russel brand plays spiteful hurtful tricks and hoaxes on the vulnerable.
Over payed and over rated
He was fired how he wormed his way back is beyond belief....
Yeah, I feel like his sets are great.
But I feel like if you just chucked him on stage, reminded him of a specified weekend out with his mates and told him to talk about it, that would be gold too. 😁
There's a podcast I'd watch endlessly. Kevin talks to his old mates about nights out and crazy memories.
Fascinating to have seen him evolve over the years and never lose his core sense of self.
I do agree, the Scottish accent makes the jokes sound more brutal. I fecking love it.
How wise and level-headed he is even at 23!
He’s 33 now.
@@johnnyfannucci oh yes indeed. But he was 23 at the time of the interview
@@maithiliradhakrishnan15 No he wasn’t. He was in his mid-30s.
@@bronska01 I guess he was wrong when he said, right there in the interview, that he was 23.
@@bronska01 He said the DVD would be released just after his 24th birthday.
I love Kevin Bridges so much, I love him so much - he's hilarious without even trying
Not many comments haha
Hes jus naterrally funny'.love him to bits..class.
I love him talking about his Dad!
Great that they got to share his first gig!
Kev in is as sharp as they come, his timing is perfection. 🏴
There are some great stand up comedians in Britain and this guys definitely one of them.
He's actually telling the truth about the pizza crunch and schoolkids.
I'm extremely surprised he's never even seen a deep fried mars bar since they were invented in Glasgow. I just ate two in a row like ten minutes ago. Because they're so small it's easy to foget they contain 2000 calories each. So I've just ate 4000 calories in one sitting but I'm one og those lucky cunts that can eat as much junk food as I want and have never weighed more than ten stone
@@starrchild254 fascinating......

Even skeletons have heart attacks and high collestral....
My mam worked in a chippy back in the 70s, deep fried pizza was on the menu 🍕😋
Love pizza crunches
he is one hell of a guy and i love the fact that he is so proud of being scottish.
Yeah,everybody who is from Scotland is proud. We are a rare breed.
Why? It's not like he had any say in the matter.
He might just as well be proud of his eye colour or his height.
One of the best if not the best comedian in the UK.
Calling him a “uk” comedian lol. He is class tbf
He started so young, he's wicked, very nature hope he never loses that. Love it wicked
English is not even my first language, but it took me about 1 hour to tune my ear to Kevin's accent, so I only miss a few words now and then.
10 years later and he's still fucken hilarious
Why would he get less funny?
@@cameron9149 Because some comedy ages/gets dated quickly, but his hasn’t?
I don't get how people can't understand his accent, im not Scottish I'm a londoner and I get him , mind u we have a lot of diffrent accents in London mayb that's why. Brilliant 👏👏👏👏👏
I remember the first time I heard Rab C Nesbitt, wasn't sure it was English...
To be fair Kevin doesn’t have that thick of an accent
I'm American and I can understand him just find. There are a few words I have to sort of go back to and hear again but for the most part I can understand him.
@@ok-ji2zn he said here he toned it down so the rest of the world can understand him.
@@gerrithoevers yeah but even then his accent wasn’t that thick, just slightly more scotch before he began to tone it down
I agree , I’ve heard much stronger Glaswegian accents. He’s the best standup comedian in the UK at the moment. I loved Frank Skinner and Frankie Boyle. Kevin fills the void . Working class British city culture is similar all over the island.
Kevin is really brilliant. No BS comedy.
I was doing a 26 month sentence in Barkinnie prison seriously he had everyone in stitches there was other comedy acts but he stole the show first I heard or seen him I bet he enjoyed himself
Gotta ask the 2 obvious questions. What were you in for and any plans on going back again ? :)
@@stewills9711 The spelling police caught up with him :)
Hope you're doing better now mate.
@@stewills9711 any plans on going back? 😂 Doubt it's a holiday resort haha
the BAR L I believe they call it up the road. never.. never visited it for a short break. but when I used to travel up to me granny's used to see it n then see easter house n wonder which was worse 🤔🤔👀👀😏
I am from Durban South Africa. It was difficult with the first two clips but now I get it. Excellent Comedian!
Kevin is a wonderful comedian, so sharp.
This was broadcasted10 years before the published date.
Love Kevin
I discovered this guy in 2023. The best so far of all the British Isles comedians. I love his rough Glascow act.
Kevin Bridges has ‘funny bones’. He’s a brilliant comedian.
He’s so talented at what he does he makes stories funny that wouldn’t be funny if anyone else where to say it it’s just something in the way he delivers it.
I live in the north east of Scotland and aye, a battered Mars bar is a thing and it’s magic
Pizza crunch is dynamite 👌🏻
I loved him from his first show
Kevin is a born comic and speaks better English than Jonathan wosser
My high school canteen, in Glasgow's south side, served deep fried pizza with chips on their fixed, weekly menu in the 80s. Many an old school mate has since passed away. Probably more to do with the smoking and drinking but those pizza's certainly didn't help! (EDIT) ...and, yes, I've tried deep fried mars bar. They aren't a myth. My mother's local chippie is more upmarket, it sells deep fried Ferrero Rocher.
This dude makes me piss myself almost hes done so well for his age ,Id defo go watch him
Hes like 34 nowadays you know that right?
Class act, on-stage and off.
LOVE KEVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The pizza crunch is lovely.
Hes class act 👏
An Englishman remarking to a Scotsman on the unhealthy nature of the Scottish diet is prety amusing to anyone who lives in a place where people eat vegetables on a regular basis...
That will be England then.
I find it hard to believe a video with 221,000 views only has 124 comments. The numbers don't add up.
Early stages of raw talent there. He’s done no to bad since then
Absolutely love deep fried Mars bars. Not had one in a few years now but now they’ve mentioned it I’m going to have to get one, only problem is if I have 1 I’ll need one every few days 😂
23 that's what haggis does to ya 😂😂
Bridges is da man ........ross is a total plonker !!
Pizza crunch is deeelish
Where abouts in Australia
Mon the Bridgemeister. Until I was in my 20s, I never knew you could even get pizza that WASN'T deep fried. That said, every time I go up the road, it's a deep fried haggis supper every time. Munchie box is also for winners, if sightly ambitious
:) it was all the rage at the kitchen table!
I feel like half of these new comments don’t realize this was 10 years ago
Have you seen my mum? You wouldn't ride her into battle! PMSL
LOVE HIM
Best comedian in the world kev. I. N. Is the best
Such a likeable lad.
American and this dude is piss your pants funny.
I'm half japanese half icelandic and I approve this message
Lebanese and he's a genius
Half Japanese and half Icelandic is something i feel like would be a phenomenonal visual.
Scottish and i approve this message
@@thomascorrie2754a viking samurai. I wouldn't wanna mess with him lol
I'd highly recommend Frank Skinner's autobiography he mentions, it's hilarious and brutally honest.
Glasgow is a very strong accent but he definitely lightens it substantially so his accent doesn’t sound that strong in this and that. I definitely have had a good few battered Mars bars in my childhood 😂 my accent is Ulster Scott’s but still have to lighten it up if I’m speaking to people who aren’t used to it 😂
"Ulster Scotts"??....are you sure you are from Scotland
@@bluesteel5688 yea I’m half and half
My point was that you don't seem to know how to spell Scots
Ah I see, autocorrect. Didn’t even notice, I assumed you were referencing the fact that Ulster isn’t in Scotland.
Genius
2 ( great )Scots Gerry Butler & Kevin Bridges both born on the Nov 13th!! Good day for Bonnie Scotland!!
Wossie would have a problem understanding us fae darkest Lanarkshire...we make the Glesga folk sound normal...
I have to disagree with you there.
You ever been in a pub in Possil on Saturday night?
Nothing like a bit of patronising humour to introduce a guest, thanks Jonathan.
Ross is so condescending.........
I don’t what it is , but something about these interviewers makes me think , they think they’re so superior
Jerry Seinfeld has done a show that retraces his act from the beginning and even does his first joke again.
Has Kevin done anything like this? It would have been a great question for Jonathan to ask and take him back to the first gig and try to re-create the routine a bit.
seems like such a down to earth bloke. awful interview n crowd though.
Wossy never liked it when the guest was funnier than him
My mom's 32😂😂😂!
Kevin is easier to understand
When i was at school we had fat shaming, thin shaming, tall shaming short shaming, ginshaming spotty shaming and the one i suffered from spec shaming anything distinctive about you was mocked if you was dumb the other kids would take the piss, if you were the cleverest kid in the class theyd take the piss. It was worse for girls if they were well developed they got nicknames like "titsolina" if they were underdeveloped they had names like fried eggs or suzie no tits.i was commonly known as goggles, four eyes, Joe 90 etc bu i ended up marrying Tracy big tits the most fancied girl in the school who all the good looking cool guys were after
He must get really bored of being asked about his accent all the time, I remember Billy Connolly getting the same tired stuff when I was wee (little). I'm from Scotland and I don't have a problem with other strong accents in the UK, just make an effort
I don't think it is the accent so much as the slang terms.
If a Glaswegian couple said that there was mince on the telly so they were winching but the wean was greeting, I expect if you asked most people to repeat back what they said then they probably could. Whether they understood what was being said is an entirely different matter though.
@@seanscanlon9067That mixed with the speed we talk n how we pronounce and connect words together in a sentence. Most people will understand Kevin's TV and stage accent, but if folk from outside of Glasgow and Scotland found themselves in a room with him while he's talking away n havin a bit of banter with his pals then they'd probably struggle to keep up.
You can see blatantly, visibly how much Kevin wants to punch him in the face
Johnny cash was the man in black and a great musician ,Kevin is the comedian version of Johnny cash
My girlfriend is about as good at English as I am, but she has trouble understanding Kevin. I pity her. She misses out on quite a few laughs.
AYE ... I PITY YOU ... WITH A COMMENT LIKE THON ... YER NEVER GETTIN' THE RIDE AGAIN BIG SON LOL !!!
😉
TS 11:10, correct
How can't people understand Kevin its ridiculous.
Only thing I don't understand is some of the regional slang he uses because we don't use it
As someone wo learned English as a second language it's a enormous task to understand his sketches 😂
@@johannes-8957 whats your first language ?
@@alternativeperception6949 German
@@johannes-8957 had the pleasure of visiting Germany about 12 years ago , lovely County and very nice people 👍👍✌
@@alternativeperception6949 Thanks alot :)) Ive never been to england or scotland but im planning to after corona is done fuccking everyone :D
😆
Deep fried Mars Bars are certainly not a myth, they have been around for over 20 years in Edinburgh. I think they actually originated in Edinburgh, so if Kevin has never seen one, it may be that this delicacy has never really taken off in the West of Scotland.
It's just chippies making money off a tourists wanting to try a deep fry Mars bar 😂
@@jbx5411 you don’t usually pay for them in the chippy, you buy the Mars bar from a garage or whatever and then go in and get it battered for free, I’ve only found one place that charges and it’s like 5p or something but could be different elsewhere 🤷🏽♀️ (Glasgow)
@@laurajaynenolan2149 I also live in Glasgow and not seen one chippy doing it, however when in Edinburgh they do have them and places like St Andrews. Like in the chippy and it's like 3 quid odd
Deep fried Mars bars are all over England as well.
Ive never tried one, but when I was in school, everyone loved them
they originated in bathgate, but close enough, definitely east coast.
Im a braindead yank and can understand him
"They do like fried food in Scotland"...what a twatish comment from Ross.....wonder if he ever considered the connection between poverty and a poor diet
They live in their rich people bubbles. They think poverty must mean no food, not that they are reduced to bad unhealthy food.
Edit: spelling
Scotland isn't poor. It has a higher level of consumption on average than Wales and much of England.
23 I honestly thought he was mid Thirties!
Love Kevin but that interview seemed so awkward for both Kevin and Jonathan. Its like when your forced to talk to someone but you have nothing to say and nothing in common and you cant wait for it to end :-)
Kevin was there to plug his DVD and that is fair enough, but Jonathan's timing is not that great sometimes when guests are working up to the punchline and he feels he has to add his own little retort at the end, almost like DVD extras, funnily enough.
Pizza crunch Italian Scots
Did ya aye....
I live in Leamington Spa. That is NOT an accurate accent. Leamington Spa sounds posh, but it's close to Coventry, which is basically if Hull were made of concrete and had people constantly trying to head-butt one another to steal their spice.
Kev-I-N.
23? He looks like he's 50!
Very funny tho!
23 haha bro looks 30
It's funny that he thinks Leamington spa is posh
Hes never seen it cause hes not from Glasgow
Not many views...
Would be more if it wasn't Wossy as well!
Lool
And the rest in now history
In Edinburgh in the early 1979s a guy approached me and said “give me £2 or I’ll shoot you! “. He had a gun and was pointing it at me. I only had 50 pence and gave him that. He then walked into a fish and chip shop. I went to a police box (a Tardis) which was only 50 yards away. There was a police officer there who immediately called for back-up. Within two minutes the chip shop was surrounded by police. The guy was arrested and eventually got six months in jail. I never got my 50 pence back! I also had to move house as my address was published in the local evening paper. Kevin you never really experienced fear!
Kevin bridges is a great comedian full of many topics to make us laugh, but don't you think Jonathan ross when he talks sounds like he has a constant cold,
God... I hate listening to talk show hosts fake laughing
How dare Jonathan Woss say that Kevin has an accent ? To those from the North of England, the southern accent is bizarre. The London accents are like something foreign as they cannot pronounce th and substitute V, or T on its own ( is silent) . The word YES also has an S on the end.
Oi Kevin. Clydebank is not Glasgow. Please don't pander to their lack of knowledge.
i love kevin bridges he's absolutely brilliant but for some reason Jonathan ross who is normally a brilliant host but at the beginning of the interview he was really really wooden almost like he was reading off a script!!!!!!
The bell pipe walked out in Bradford because someone was heckling him and he couldn’t handle it
Maybe jenny Ross needs to move on....
Gee Jonathan just asks some really mundane questions. Kevs there looking like he's in a meeting with his accountant. The shows energy is like a banal hotel channel for whatever the guest is promoting.
Well, I have not been to Scotland for years, but the last time I was there I encountered both the deep-fried Mars bar and a deep-fried pizza. In fact, I bought a pizza without knowing how it was going to be presented (deep-fried). Trust me when I say, it was staggeringly awful, and not fit for human consumption.
