Catherine Tate - the offensive translator (Reaction Video)

[@joeythebrit7155]

Every time I see people reacting to this I enjoy telling the story about how it took them several times to film this scene because the Asian lady could not stop laughing, knowing they were all laughing about it makes it that much better! x

"Nan" is a great character of the Catherine Tate show, she is very rude and funny. Sarah Millican is a good great comedian.

[@chiffchuff1158]

You should check out Catherine Tates Nan character as well as school girl Lauren. I agree with Sarah Millican for stand up and don’t forget to watch more Peter Kay and Micky Flanagan.

[@jemmajames6719]

Also Kevin Bridges.

[@jamescopeland8050]

Catherine Tate has some great sketches. Her 'nan' character sketches are top tier. Strongest female comedian right now in the UK I would say is Sarah Millican, definitely recommend checking her out!

[@samhilton4173]

Sarah Millican is fun on shows but her stand-up us pretty much the same as Jo Brand. Or a more modern Victoria Wood. Not bad but a little generic for me. Still I love seeing her on Taskmaster, QI, etc.

[@garthwick19]

You need to see more Catherine Tate - check out her other stuff - she is premier league funny. Nan sketches are brilliant. Dive deep in Ms Tate, you wont regret it.

[@jules.8443]

Now she has her Nan Movie coming to UK cinemas (movie theaters), on Friday. So if you don't mind cuss words, watch her as Nan Taylor.

[@rwlynch3468]

I was too young to go to pubs when they still have those pint glasses with handles. (I'm 38 and they didn't have them 20 years ago when I was 18). But I found out you can ask for them in pubs near me. They often reserve them for older folks or those with disabilities who can't grip a standard pint glass. But I love that you have them here.

[@Inaflap]

They're called tankards. I rarely go to the pub now, but I used to ask for a tankard at my local. I just prefer them to the straight glass. Some people in there had pewter tankards reserved.

[@rwlynch3468]

@@Inaflap genuinely forgot the name tankard. We had them in every pub near me in Scotland when I grew up, but when I was old enough to drink they were replaced with pint glasses. I think you can still ask for them. Some older people or those who can't grip or have a slight impediment in their hand often do here.

Sarah Millican is a really good British comedian. She has loads of videos on her channel. Her men vs women one and girl talk one are really funny. Tbh everything she does is really good.

[@neorich59]

Tate is a comic genius and a damned good actress. Check out her Gay Son sketches, where she plays an Irish mother, or Detective Sam Speed. I'm pretty sure that she doesn't do "stand up." However, Victoria Wood used to and also created some hilarious sketch (and serious drama) shows! BTW, you two are great to watch. As amusing as the sketch itself!

[@TChighbury]

In terms of women in comedy, Jennifer Saunders, Caroline Aherne, Victoria Wood were all top-tier (last two sadly deceased). Catherine Tate, Sarah Millican, Aisling Bea, Jo Brand all Comedians that work their particular niches well.

[@notvalidcharacters]

You two might be the only reaction videographers where I *don't* fast forward through the intro.

[@valentinazucca1942]

Michael Mcintyre is also super funny. He’s a stand up comedian

[@scouseofhorror104]

Favourite female comedians: Victoria Wood, Catherine Tate, Sarah Millican, Amy Schumer, Ali Wong, Katherine Ryan, Iliza Shlesinger, Roisin Conaty, Diane Morgan (aka. Philomena Kunk, Mandy) You should definitely check out Philomena Kunk for a brilliant laugh! And Katherine Ryan as she's Canadian... but we've sort of adopted her 🤔😅💕

[@valentinazucca1942]

Catherine Tate is amazing. You need to check her characters Lauren and Nan (two separate characters) hilarious 😂

[@mickeyd6444]

Really enjoying the clips and the chemistry, just subscribed! You guys should check out a British show called Mock the Week. It took them years before they seriously integrated women into the panel (6 comedians each week, never more than 2 female, usually one or none) and it's a shame because the female comedians on that show are pretty funny. Try a sample of "Scenes We'd Like to See," the final segment of each show where the emcee sets a category and the six comedians take turns riffing on it. I promise it won't be long before you're hooked! (This is of course assuming that you haven't seen the show before...)

[@bradlucy]

Thanks for the suggestions 😁

[@bepto4877]

You may recognise her from her role in the later series of "The Office US"

[@riotagus]

Someone already said it , but you both are so refreshing and genuine. It really clear to see. You seem a lovely couple I laughed so hard at the peeping video ! You pair of peepers! I do something similar - lol 😂 i won’t go into details !! Lo I think it’s something thoughtful people do a mix between being super polite , putting others feelings first and so end up acting g like a Wally to not upset /disturb neighbours/visitors etc… But I can relate to what you say re: women not as funny as men . There are more funnier men known and out there but There are few good stand up women. as I’m sure you’ll come to discover ! I’m from Gloucestershire England x I enjoy your reactions 👍

I agree that funny female comics are few and far between. I find that women comics tend to be more limited in the breadth of topics they might discuss. It's often about issues that are germaine to women like dating and marraige. But Kathleen Madiggan's a really good comic.

[@Isleofskye]

Very good point and to be a successful comic in front of thousands requires, sometimes, NOT being liked or being popular and accepting criticism, some of which, can be personal. You also have to be Brave and very confident which are not traits that come easily, to most Women....

Plus our mischievous nature and how rougher lives at the sharp end. I am a 67-year-old Londoner and most Women are indulged and deferred to and treated with kid gloves and cotton wool so it is not surprising their lives do not give, readily, for mainstream comedy. .For example, Men are not going to be interested or fund every day Female activities funny...."I was doing some knitting and...etc"....:) Also to stand out in front of 5,000 people means you have to be BRAVE and CONFIDENT and accept and laugh off CRITICISM, none of which are female traits. In my long experience any problems or confrontation and they head for the hills leaving Men to "sort it" :)
