@@camptube7621 hey that's interesting! My surname (Metcalf) apparently originated in Yorkshire. I wonder if the reason I know the saying well is that it was dragged over to Australia with my great great grandparents from Yorkshire, and I got to hear it from my grandparents as a kid?
thequeen ofautumn When Kelly Osborne co-hosted the TV show “Fashion Police,” with Joan Rivers years ago, I remember she said that a couple times. So I just assumed it was a common British saying. 10 years later, fast forward to me just watching the Catherine Tate Shows for the first time, and realizing that the phrase originated from a character on a TV show. LOL! To which I say, how VERY dare you, Kelly, how very, very dare you! 😜
Who dear? Me dear? Gay dear? No dear! LoL every time I hear it! You would think a different actor was playing each character; so very very different,🤪☘️
They were two completely different gag's though, even though they were both about someone not knowing it's meant to be cold. The joke for Rimmer, was that something trivial ruined his career (or at least he felt like that's what did it). Where as on the Catherine Tate show, the joke is, this couple is always over the top disgusted by food that is out of the ordinary for them.
@Krypton Action I agree with you in essence...... Most of her characters are brilliantly funny and any swearing... IS IN Context.... No problem. But the "Nan" character? Nah...goes way too far OTT... Good comedy in the Nan sketches.... until the overly strong language. Just does not work and most people find it so. It spoils the memories of her whole series. Which is sad.
leonard herring..... No negative comments from me: Most of her characters are fine with the incidental "bad language" ....Not so the "Nan" character...way, way too cheap. (Leonard..May I ask..are you a Communist..Not a Red Herring I hope...!DOH!)
Patagualian Mostly If I had a pound for every time someone, on hearing my name said, " oh are you a red herring" I would be a multi millionaire. However that is the first time I have ever been asked if I am a Communist because of my name, I just don't get the connection or the sense of humor.
Leonard, in answer to your original comment. Yes. We exact our Nans to be well- mannered. So without the filthy language Nan would just be a Nan. It would be gratuitous coming from another one of Tate's characters but Nan wouldn't be Nan without a mouth like a sailor and her Popeye laugh
American here...🤣....I think I'm in over my head. British humor, it's like nothing else you've ever seen!
It's about comedy not political correctness 😂
To us these characters are the people we meet every day
@@michaelharrison3602 Yeah, I've been a fan for a long time. Used to LOVE Python.
You inbreds will never understand..,its beyond your intelligence.....
"I've just been backpacking "...... "She don't need to know that!!" Nice one.
Nan is so funny she reminds me of my husbands late grandma she was a southerner too . 🎄
"Cold. Tomato. Soup." -- Love that couple. I think I KNOW them! hahhahaha D.A. NYC
The dirty bastards! I know them too. And I think Karl Pilkington must be their neighbour 🤣
‘’ .... wrestle to the ground by fucking Braveheart!!!!!..... ‘’. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Still come up o see you Tate in 2023 Irish love💚💚💚
She's just brilliant! 😂
What a clever woman 😂😅❤❤ she's amazing ❤❤
Omg I love Bernie so much
Lol my dog is called Bernie, and I didn't even realise I may have been influenced by CT when choosing his name. DAMN!
“I can feel it in my waters.” 😂 Can safely say I’ve NEVER heard that one before.
Big saying in Yorkshire.

I've heard it and I'm in Perth...Australia. But maybe l watch too much British tv?
I thought that was a common phrase- I’ve lived in the South and the Midlands!

I have a Nan who is EXACTLY like old Nan in this.
Are you Pro ..... or ANTI-Euthanasia?
I think most of us have a nan or nan in law like that the generation were different gravyy
Croutons: stale bread basically
I'm here with a dirty great roid
I feel bad for Elaine Figgis
I love the straight arm dancing at the end of Bernie's sketch
I can't watch the Eliane scetch i just want to give her a big hug.
I'm sure nurse Bernie took my blood test last week. I came out like a dart board 😂
I know she s made up but each character looks like a completely different person
Now she don't need to know that.....lol
Love Nan, Derek and Bernie.
“How very, vereery dare you!” Bwahahahaha!

We need a comeback of C.T.!!
Brilliant 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
2:20 Nan’s so fake! 🤣
20:35 Leonard’s face 🤣
That dance number though...
I need more Nan!!
Just sign the book ginger 😂
How very dare you?!

up9 is the Catherine Tate show Theme song
I divnae know how to love him😂
Whatever happened to the lady with the black hair who kept screaming she was proper funny
Mo K she wasn’t really that funny. Same sketch repeated. Other characters did different things
Screamin at the Christmas lights 😂
True
I don't remember the skit with Bernie's sisters, maybe I accidentally skipped over it.
I’m sorry, Catherine Tate series three, 2006. Red Dwarf series one, 1988. They did the Gazpacho Soup gag 18 years earlier.
They were two completely different gag's though, even though they were both about someone not knowing it's meant to be cold. The joke for Rimmer, was that something trivial ruined his career (or at least he felt like that's what did it).

The gazbacho gag isn't owned by anyone.. your comment makes no sense
All humor is dependant...
and derivative.
Incredible that she is Nan..how they do that???
Do you want to talk about it Elaine
Im not sure if that was a contraption
I've been thinking you ain't all that
I'm bothered
Are you calling me Hugly?
Pregnant in what sense
They changed the actor for the couple who tell stories, the new one is shit. 12:00
Or don't? God loves us all
Don't he look like you 😂

Love Catherine but she cannae do a Geordie accent fer shite
I am sure I will get a lot of negative comments, but is it absolutely necessary to use such offensive language in order to get a few cheap laughs?

Yes, it makes it more realistic.
