[@nabin6976]

And the iphone 7 and the iphone 8!! Guess what's gonna come next now!!

[@TrollSnifferMe]

Sacha's best character by far. Great to see him back.

[@revanthsriraj5739]

Still believe that after the dictator?

[@Colgan1]

Ali G is the character that made him famous.

[@aashishsharma9106]

You are HIV Aladeen

[@pauladouglas9891]

Borat made him a superstar.

[@Coolguyuno1]

Cohen is literally a comedy genius, amazing.

[@adolflenin4973]

Amazing Englishman

[@alanchriste2963]

Keith Lemon and Jack Whitehall sitting all straight faced. Yeah guys this what you call real comedy. Appreciate the talent 👌

[@Mj-qt3xb]

Yeah I noticed that too guess the green eyed monster appeared.

[@briancalder6564]

It was worth watching for the expressions alone a snob whos not remotely funny and then there's Keith Lemon dear God to think this is years ago and there still milking it😂

[@G3n3r4t0r1111]

well said hes a genius

[@notgadot]

UK comedians are genius

[@sjpd3352]

4:39 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤦

[@xualarenthlei3704]

his Ali-G voice is soooo different now!!

[@Danimal300zx]

***** No, it sounds like Aladeen character, who he had been promoting in 2012.

[@Hasnain1F]

Could be due to the way recording system is setup, the crowd and all. Was a little different towards the end, also he was sort talking louder.

[@elisolomon8741]

I think it's the change in circumstance. Him no longer lives in is nan's Ouse.......

[@GihanRanatunga]

The accent is getting mixed with his dictator accent.

[@stevethea5250]

Yep sad

[@chrike01]

Yeah its pretty bad

[@LeoVDove]

Al-Qaïda !

[@eastcoastbreevaz2738]

I couldn’t even tell

[@Aerochalklate]

in 2016 oscars he was good

[@DuncWilsonNZ]

Best thing for me is, in 2002, Savile said this: "He's made a fortune out of me. If I wasn't here he would be skint. Ali G wears tracksuits and bulky jewellery like I started doing on the telly in 1961. He must go to the charity shops I give my old tracksuits to."

[@GeoZeppelin1979]

BOOYAKASHA!!!!

[@Krafty]

This is the first video on KZbin to make me laugh out loud in a long time. We NEED another Ali G movie. He has to at least consider it, Ali G is fucking hilarious. I'd trade any of his other characters for Ali G.

[@journeythroughchina6489]

You got one last year finally !

[@Mattdawson75]

Man, you can really tell it's been a while. The jokes are spot on, but the voice/mannerisms are way different than he used to be. Still good to see him again. Been watching his show again these past few weeks.

[@Tomst7]

Love how in awe/envious Keith Lemon looks. Ali G basically paved the way for people like him.

[@kevrosas1]

Keith Lemon isn’t a real person, he’s a character played by Leigh Francis..

[@oneminhistory]

@@kevrosas1 I know.

[@Danimal300zx]

Ouch, Sacha had been promoting the Dictator at this time (2012) and had probably been living the Admiral General Aladeen character for too long, because it's obvious that he forgot Ali G's accent. He sounds like a cross between Admiral General Aladeen and Ali G. In fact, I hear very little Ali G in that accent. It's sad, because he had perfected it for so many years (1995-2005).

[@SergiMedina]

Danimal300zx I noticed the same watching the new clips from _Ali G Rezurection_... And I was sad, because Ali G was one of my fav characters. I mean, he still rocks, but it's not as before... It's not so much his accent, but voice nuances... Well, at least now I know I'm not the only one who noticed. I hope he regains Ali G character fully and does something new! And Borat! I like _The dictator_, but this fact makes me wish more Ali G would've been made instead of _The dictator_. Well, in fact I suppose I wished that anyway... I think he could do more Ali G and Borat, not interviewing people because he says too many recognize him, but more TV shows or movies he could do...

[@skerdimeta]

Danimal300zx well Ali g is older now, accent and appearance change with time. Wouldn´t be normal if he looked and acted exactly the same.

[@shko-mi]

+Danimal300zx Same thing I thought of, it's like watching Borat dressed up like Ali G

[@765sanjay]

I noticed the same thing

[@flaggerify]

You're right. It's like someone else is doing it. None of the sharpness of the early performances.

[@NoToTheYayo]

I'm crying. The Savile bit was pure *puts sunglasses on* GOLD

[@FlyBoysWareHouse]

He's bloody legend. Still so fresh and goddamn hilarious.

[@oz-fighter3784]

Sacha Noam Baron Cohen (born 13 October 1971) is a stand up comedian. His dad is Welsh and mother Persian and Jewish. Still makes fun of Jews :D

[@sima8787]

I didn't know this mother is Persian, he does look Persian too:)

[@beyzaxd]

his dad is jewish too. cohens.. y'know

[@scottderechinsky9896]

He doesn't actually make fun of Jews. He makes fun of the racists and anti-semitics. They're just too stupid to realize it.

[@simonlindbo1610]

The ability to be brought on stage and make a whole crowd of the best british comedians laugh, not matter how hard they try not to, is fucking amazing. What a legend!

[@kazawaz]

That joke went right over your head... It's about Jimmy Saville. He was a children's tv presenter in the 80's who died; but now loads of people have come forward saying that he molested them when they were children. He wore a tracksuit all the time, as well.

[@thehoodedpoet9105]

Damn

[@MichaelRoberts-ln5io]

That wasn't the joke, so it obviously went over your head too. Savile at the start of the millennium said that ALI G must shop at all the old charity shops he used to give his used tracksuits to. It probably went over everyone's head, as I've only just seen & noticed this myself. Pure comedic genius.

[@brianliberante]

That iPhone joke would be half a set nowadays. "Techmology has come a long way. There's tings you could've never have dreamed of back then. The iPhone. The iPhone 2. The iPhone 3. The iPhone 4. The iPhone 5. The iPhone 6. The iPhone 7. The iPhone 8. The iPhone 9. The iPhone 10. The iPhone 11. The iPhone 12. Who can even himagine what is coming next?"

[@zabisworld]

This joke would take an half hour to do now. Not cool from Apple at all. Not cool dude.... Next will come probably..mmm.. Hard to guess, but uhh I will go with iPhone 12 plus and after iPhone 13. Yeah that's the best guess I can make. Techmology going fast.

[@jsrl77]

You know you're a good comedian when your audience is a room full of famous actors/comedians

[@rasmusjensen3035]

It's a comedy award show ffs

[@notgadot]

That makes americans jealous

[@verblep]

I found this so sweet. See Ali G come back after 6 years, Sacha still loves all his characters.

[@artomarto679]

The Saville tracksuit joke is genius

[@benav07]

what a freaking legend!!

[@eileenio]

so comforting to see a great guy who was on my tv 10 years ago, still a great guy on my tv today.

[@9AJW4]

One of the best things about these comedic skits at award shows is it tells you which actors have a sense of humour and which actors are boring, uptight arseholes.

[@helendqueen]

I watch this when I am unhappy. And after 5.26 minutes i'm ok :-))

[@MathMilord]

this speech is just amazing and epic

[@Richard-rz4ug]

so so good to come back at this

[@Sicksoull]

Guys may be is hard for u to believe me, but when Ali g appear at TV, I was like 18-19 and I thought he is real rapper, didn't knew it was actually actor haahaha cant believe how good this guy was.

[@f-rhymetjino8603]

The greatest Ali G..big ups mate

[@filmreviewer117]

After all this time Ali G never fails to make me laugh.

[@OfficialFingazMC]

Gonna have to stick on my Ali G VHS' now Aiiii!

[@elitept]

Ali G, a great character in British comedy. A well deserved award. RESPECT. 8-)

[@MetalizedButt]

I thought I'd never see Ali G again!! They need to create more skits!

[@08Took]

he is the best

[@gvbhnnnnnnhh]

Amazing actor. I love him so much😘

[@graemeking7309]

Ali G never gets boring!!!

[@bcamplite621]

Absolute comedic genius!

[@stuffilike05]

In 100's of years SBC will be studied and revered in schools alongside the other greatest artistic pioneers of history

[@samirkamel6933]

Big respect mr Ali G one fine british comedian funny and humoriste without limit

[@SWTCH1NGSIDES]

Take notes lemon..Ali g is legend!

[@funguy8801]

Right? ... Keith Lemon _(Leigh Francis)_, laughs all the time - at his own lame jokes ... yet cannot raise a smile for the greatness of Sasha Baron Cohen #JealousMuch?

[@swingthatthing]

@@funguy8801 he's so envious and it's so obvious

[@slotavart]

Top man....we needed this big time, humour even can break a dark moment.....i was a young kid who bought into Sa VILE and can't image what those JIM FIX IT kids/NOW ADULTS felt who had their treasured memories so terribly twisted. For any victims of the VILE man I wish you ALL THE HAPPINESS LOVE & GRACE OF GOD THAT IS POSSIBLE...........you are in all of our prayers

[@Koyotesucks]

SO STOKED TO SEE HIM BACK!!!!

[@rushiljohar4206]

He's the most underrated legend in the world. All Hollywood to actors don't have the Personality and the talent, the brain and the awesomeness of his beauty of Brits.

[@edwinstark7108]

Love Ali G

[@memesensei3330]

It's nice to see Cohen still doing a brilliant Ali G impression.

[@hasss1892]

Dunno how many times I've watched this, but it's funny EVERY SINGLE TIME

[@theantiauthoritarian.1540]

That is the BEST AND FUNNIEST speech ive EVER heard!! Quality!!👏👏👏👏👏🤣🤣🤣

[@clivelinton7657]

Not many comedians could get away with this material. Looking forward to his next film.

[@Rynoflyer12]

Ten years later, still the same hilarious comedy

[@TheDiagnoser]

I love all his characters. Ali G, Borat, Bruno, the dictator. They're all so funny especially Borat. Lmao Borat is the funniest shit.

[@kenc.d8200]

This guy is fantastic ! Aaaaaight

[@postmanpat6]

So good. I missed it last night. So glad i could watch it back :)

[@deanliverpool666]

lol, by far one of the best speeches ever!

[@docravikumarjha]

That Jimmy Savile joke was fucking brilliant.

[@stablish4314]

Yeah, just proves that literally anything can be funny if written, and delivered well. And it helps to have a sense of humour of course

[@dogsnoses]

"West Staines Massif! Respect!

[@Poopidpeople]

I was about to switch channel then this happened, I was in hysterics ! What a legend he should get the chance to do another series or something.

[@Dewillo344]

[@iMARRIEDmaryJANE]

Well said & so true.

[@omanflag]

I absolutely love British humor. Way better than American humor.

[@ThePotatoPolice]

his voice changed from the movie and this, saying that it was 10 years

[@SimonJobson]

He's still got it!

[@TMM6944]

Pure talent.....

[@Maxshard]

Sacha uses completely different accents for Ali G and Aladeen, I don't hear Aladeen in Ali G here at all. For Ali G he uses a British/Jamaican accent, When he plays Aladeen he uses an Arabic accent.

[@patrickhall7884]

Yeah man. I don't know what all these other Wally's are complaining about. This is his Ali G accent

[@dotuongvi1476]

He seems to have forgotten how to do Ali G

[@euneadventure3112]

Restecp !

[@paulmcdonough1093]

British comedy is the best on earth it is a gift they are in a league of ther own.

[@MegaKibbel]

ik had het al verbeterd. maar bedankt.

[@flaggerify]

He seems to have forgotten how to do Ali G

[@Nikken11]

+flaggerify Still good, but he's done better

[@shukokato9320]

+flaggerify i noticed it too. it was Aladeen's character's voice. i guess he has been practicing Aladeen too much that it sticks with when he was supposed to do Ali G

[@fillatron8795]

still funny af

[@howiemandealt]

Alternate Title: Uncle Tamir introducing Admiral General Aladeen

[@TaylorHoff805]

So good.

[@jakegargiulo5101]
