In the beginning of the seventies I spent a summer in mostly Oxford taking a summer course in English. Lived on fish and chips and sandwiches. Made the mistake to go to a cheap diner frequented by taxi drivers and lory drivers thinking they would know better. Ordered a meat pie of some kind. It was the worst I have ever eaten. Learned later that roast beef was great. Indian food I didn’t know about. Somebody compares Danish food to British. Regular home cooking in Denmark is great. Forget about Swedish food.
ReplyYou clearly have never tried Patti LaBelle Banana Pudding.
Reply“It made me what I am today. Which is 60% sad.” Thank you for this whole video, John Oliver.
ReplyA pudding is anything made in a pudding bowl. They usually contain suet.
ReplyOof, with content like this I’m always disappointed when I remember that we got this kind of mediocrity instead of Craig Ferguson on the Late Show.
ReplyLove this! And we Americans know about elevenses because they’re referenced in the film of Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (along with second breakfast, afternoon tea, dinner, supper …)
ReplyThis was way funnier than i thought it would be “please sir, can we have another?”
ReplyMagnificent, jut love it
Reply“How the f*** did you know about elevenses” has got to be my favorite line spoken by a person ever.
Replyfirst off yes more of this, please and thank you, and secondly this has made me want everything he mentioned at least once
ReplyI love English meat pies. The Gala Pie is my favorite I love all of them save the kidney pie. I also love me some Turkish delight as well. oh and your Sausage rolls are amazing.
ReplyWe know about elevenses from Prof. Tolkien.
Reply“Who told you about Elevenses?” One of the hobbits from LotR.
ReplyBeans (in the morning)?
ReplyHaving lived for a decade in UK and experienced it first hand….You have average and below average in most of your cities and B towns run mainly by Bangladeshis pretending to be Indian. Over sweetened, onion and tomato generic base for curries. Please don’t start citing examples of a handful of elite restaurants as a benchmark. If you want to experience the real flavours of various Indian cuisines comes to India. There is no substitute.
ReplyIn the time that was wasted with this, you could have told your audience to watch the 14-minute 1942 US Department of Agriculture video, *Hemp For Victory,* and explained key points about the historical and modern importance of the video. *Hemp For Victory* is the short WWII video that legalized “Marihuana” to defend our country. It shows why the war on drugs is an inexcusable crime against humanity. It shows how to repair the supply chain, replace foreign imports, bring manufacturing jobs back from overseas, and reform the criminal justice and education systems in the US. But who cares unless a celebrity tells you about it, right?
ReplyLiterally a crime that you all did not address southern sweet tea & Arnold palmers
