You can see how the CEO's were trying not to laugh. Apparently they had to keep stopping the filming because the Chinese CEO couldn't keep a straight face. Great reaction as always Amanda x

[@LADYRAEUK]

Lol that’s brilliant

[@Kari_B61ex]

🤣😂😆 The funniest sketch ever - which we all know wouldn't be allowed today! Back then all of the actors used from the varying nationalities found it really difficult to finish the filming because they couldn't stop laughing. It would never happen today which is a crying shame!

[@trevf69]

Love the way you are not offended by our humour amanda, there is to much of that. As you say, it's a joke mate not meant to be taken seriously, people should get over themselves.

[@LADYRAEUK]

🙌🙌🙌

[@SNMG7664]

I think the most important part of this is that 100% of the joke is that the interpreter is terrible, not any of the other cultures represented. Everyone who took part also clearly knew what the joke was, chose to participate, and we've heard behind the scenes stories of how they had to do so many takes because people kept laughing. Honestly I think this could be made today and would be fine.

[@carlhartwell7978]

I wouldn't even necessarily argue that it _couldn't_ be made, though that's a possibility. But what I would say is that _having been made_ it' almost certainly would be branded _'problematic'_ by a certain (albeit small, but clearly very vocal and influential) segment of society which has certainly proven to have the ability to 'cancel' a great many things in recent yrs.

[@SubjectRandom21]

If only this could be done again, but sadly we have far too many weak minded thin-skinned idiots.

@@robinhill4458 absolutely, you soon get to realise, know and understand from people’s body language how it’s going to go down. But to be truly hateful just because of someone’s skin colour, where they are from or their sexuality is a huge complicated issue, but above all completely wrong and should be called out

[@robinhill4458]

@@mattierenton701 Totally agree,aggressive racism, or any aggressive “ism” should be called out, and I think discouraging narcissistic employers who actually promote segregation, divisiveness and negative competition would be a start. We must wean ourselves off of our reliance on huge corporate business or at least only support them if they show some care for their workforce and humanity as a whole.I’m ranting now,but my hope is that we judge one another as we find them and not by the media created stereotypes.

🙌

[@patrickmarsh9037]

I've always interpreted the sketch as being about British exceptionalism, possessing the global language, in citing one years' TEFL training as being adequate to commandeer seven languages (the two are unrelated, anyhow)! The irony dances on a knife edge with offensiveness. I think it lands just right: Tate's character is ultimately ridiculous.

[@paulguy2545]

The funny thing is the joke is that she's an idiot. But people don't care about that these days. They would sadly prefer to be offended on social media. Pre-social media life was so much better. I'm glad I grew up then.

[@LADYRAEUK]

That’s true .. it’s a shame

[@trevorsills9744]

You're right. We're all too quick to shout Racism these days. Most of the time, the people of the races concerned are not offended and it's the great white Social Justice Warrior who is objecting on their behalf.

[@sparkidee]

Technically all she's doing is doing an impression of them. I don't see how it's racist as she's not calling them racist names. Then again.... People now tend to make up rules.

[@QuestNation3221]

I’ve seen her live and see is absolutely brilliant. Unfortunately you won’t see comedy like this in tv anymore as so many people get offended.

It’s nice to see fellow Americans smile, laugh and enjoy British comedy. Our humour can be so different to each other.

Catherine Tate is hilarious, I always enjoyed watching her Lauren Cooper segments, so stupidly funny. Great video, I love your reactions. Keep up the fantastic work :-) You looked at the camera when she mentioned TEFL, in case you weren’t sure what that meant, it’s just Teaching English as a Foreign Language (also Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL)).

That was hiylarious! Loved your reaction. And as you and so many of the commentors have pointed out, sometimes we have to laugh at ourselves...it wasn't meant to be a slur against anybody just a bit of silly fun. If you want more examples of silly accents, try 'Allo 'Allo a BBC sitcom based around a reluctant member of the French Resistance during WW2. EVERYONE including the British characters, have ridiculous cod accents and Arthur Bostrom who plays a British Agent pretending to be a French Police Officer is just hysterical! 😂
