Catherine Tate's Little Cracker

I DON'T OWN THIS OR ANYTHING IN IT, IT IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY.

[@ctatefan8649]

Some of the comments people have left on this video are both shocking and disgusting. If you've come here to make a degrading comment about the young actress in this film, kindly restrain yourself and leave. Nobody wants to see it and nobody really cares.

[@Widdekuu91]

It's nothing new, sadly. Most people remove/clean their commentsection often so you don't see it. I've seen sexual remarks about handicapped people in shows, people that were dead and people that were dying of cancer. Things like; 'Too bad she died, would've loved to ... my ... in her ... before she kicked the bucket' or 'She looks like a Gremlin, but I still would..if she wore a bag." Best thing to do is remove them and appreciate the fact that there's more happy ones. There are more kind people in the world than mean ones.

Catherine Tate is just brilliant. She truly is gifted.

This was wonderful! As a redhead, I approve and support! #gingergang

[@a697ag]

I love when the magic of the YT algorithm throws me a seemingly random recommendation that really sticks. This was brilliant! I too had crippling shyness as a kid and my Mom championed for me to be in every school play and also enrolled me in kiddie acting group. I can remember both Mom and Dad up late at night after busy days at work and on the weekends making costumes and building sets. Every little person should havr that kind of cheerleaders.

[@theofficialwatermelon8583]

Catherine Tate grew up to be something impeccable.

[@fsfsf4]

I think my heart just melted

[@emilienatalie8635]

this is an autobiography of Catherine Tates life basically

[@rachelmurphy739]

Yep pretty much

[@emilienatalie8635]

Rachel Murphy the little girl is her awwe

[@angelchalmers3760]

Now that was a unique episode to see Catherine tate play a kinda serous mature roll, she's pretty and her hair looked good, think it was her natural hair. The little girl blew me away with her song at the end I thought she's a little Freddie mercury, my ex and me injoyed that movie bohemian rhapsody. Catherine she's so many awesome characters, that nun was stuck up, she expected the little girl to get stage fright so bad she would wee on stage, But she did pull a wee face at the end, we are probably ment to think she did.

[@Mongalz]

Aww this is wonderful! I wanna hug the young Catherine and the grown up Catherine! It must have been so emotional for her to live all that again! Great ending! GREAT!

[@emmcatherine1460]

Shy little girls if given the chance can go very far in life.

[@deborahjordan235]

The teacher/nun reminded me of every terrible teacher I had in my snobby posh school that covers ALL of them!! However I never came across a child with this issue OR didn't notice. This skit should be watched by everyone who has ever been disparaging or downright horrible re a child with this issue. In every shy person there is a fun gregarious person just dying to be set free and we would do well to help them at every opportunity!

[@jemmagarvey1634]

"What if she pisses all over the stage" I just 😂😂😂

Her playing her own mother was really cute. She seemed so sweet and kind I have no idea what her personality is like in real life cause I've never watched an interview and this woman plays so many different personalities its beyond remarkable.. But if I ever were to meet her in person I hope she'd be this degree of sweet and so dang funny it would make my stomach hurt

[@ChristiannaMoestue]

I love that Catherine was willing to do this about herself when she was little

[@NEPSUDO]

I´m from germany , and I´ve never laughed like Catherine Tate made me. It is so wrong that we can not buy her stuff here on DVD nor see it on TV !! I hope she will be known for quality here some day...

I peed myself in a castle on a school tour cause i was too shy to interrupt the tour guide. Boy, was i daft when i was a kid...

[@pennyh4021]

[@samadams219]

the teachers are the worst!!

My infant teacher was a saint, on our first day he told us to interrupt him if we needed the toilet or just get up and go if it was story time.

That little girl is absolutely adorable. But then, she grew up to be Catherine Tate so what else should we expect? 😄❤ I'm secretly in love with Catherine Tate.

[@jessicajohn1962]

She’s talented & I love her too 🥰

[@jfisher9532]

I just commented on a Nan video last night because I’d never had the privilege of knowing Catherine Tate existed and just found out about her when I’d stumbled onto these videos, and I was in tears, doubled-over in pain laughing harder than I can remember doing in some time now. This video brought back some horrible memories for me, and that little girl is so sweet and so cute, and once again, I was in tears, this time because of how beautifully heartwarming this was. That was the most perfect ending and I’m tearing up again thinking about it. Catherine Tate is an absolute gem of a woman. Please take good care of her, England. I think she’s my hero.

[@dontalkt2meboutheros]

It's good to see Anita Dobson in front of a camera again.

There's a fez and a brown trenchcoat by the end...

oooooh a fez, Doctor Who reference?

Probably not, just my overly nerd mind making connections... But there IS a fez -- for Eleven -- and a Brown Trenchcoat -- that I'm pretending it's for Ten!

[@industriebauten]

Pearl Playdinn the fez is most probably a reference to Tommy Cooper.

[@pchamney]

I love this - and the dedication at the end, too!

[@howardkerr8174]

EXCELLENT, I was so afraid when the little Catherine Tate came on it would end in disaster.

[@chocomocha]

I was one of those little girls who was shy to go to the toilet too :D

[@JohnSmith-xy3gb]

Me too.but mostly because they made you sign in and out for the bathroom logging times you left and returned and punished you at the end of the week if you went too often.basically I didn’t go for six hours a day for 7 years to avoid being sent to the heads office.10 years later I’ve continued this habit subconsciously out of anxiety and am now incontinent.

[@howardkerr8174]

While watching the classroom scene at the beginning I had a bit of a flashback to my own experiences as a very young child in parochial school. My first teacher was not like the one in this video, but as I got older I would run into nuns like her. Strangely enough, my first reaction to watching that scene was the same as the grandmother's (?) and aunt's (?): the nun is a baxxard. Also had a flashback to my mom preparing dinner and gossiping with another woman...trying to remember exactly who it was they were talking about.

[@scottiechik91]

That was awesome! Best Nativity ever!

[@francesriddiough8818]

[@TheTurkishLinguist]

That was lovely

[@talachedaka2000]

This was 10 years ago. GG wouldn’t be appropriate to have in this this nowadays. The girl is very sweet and if her hair is naturally that colour, I can only imagine the relentless bullying she has endured. One of my own daughters is a beautiful red head who spent years as a teen dyeing it. She’s 24 now and embraces it!

[@AnnisaPrasetyanto]

I think this is Cathrine's story when she was younger. I've heard she shared this story before in an interview.

[@annieridesagain3867]

Aww if it was really 1976 I could have been there at that school .

[@RIXRADvidz]

Ms Tate writes a great story, we've always loved her characters and are sad that BBC America doesn't show her anymore, thank goodness for YT!!!!!

Oh my gosh, this was absolutely beautiful and adorable. Why is there never any quality, feel good shows like this in the US? Oh yeah...it's because we're built on one standard: if you're not the best, and setting the direction for the pack, you simply don't matter. And, in fact we will brake you until you know that. I would guarentee most of the disgusting rude comments on here came from americans. Not all of us are rude assholes.

[@xxsilveyxx]

Aww. In third grade, I had a very scary old teacher. I was a year younger than everyone else in my class, and the teacher terrified me so much. One day, I raised my hand to go to the bathroom, and my teacher didn't see me, and I wet myself because I was too afraid to speak up. I'm not so shy anymore, and this was so cute and reminded me a bit of myself.

Cathrine Tate for "Australian Prime Minister!!!!" YAY.

[@delilahtuxedo6993]

Oh, and for the Gary Glitter impersonation. I'm sure this was made before he was outed. Are we going to deny every child's hero memories of men who they knew nothing about. For heaven's sake Jimmy Saville fooled and groomed the nation and the police.This is a moving story of empowerment, not Catherine's best, but likely touching on issues she felt herself growing up ginger. I grew up in a world where children of normal build today we're teased and isolated for being fat, where children were humiliated by teachers for being black, for not being Christian and yes, also publicly yelled at as filthy and slapped for soiling themselves when stressed. This film isn't about promoting a paedophile. Gary Glitter was a pop star who appealed to children as part of Glamrock. Good men such as Alvin Stardust were copied too; and what child of that era didn't dream of their fantasy brought to life through Jim'll fix it? Who now knows what terrible things BMay be found after the death of stars with enough money to fool the public now? We were innocent then. We didn't have mobile/cell phones or internet. I agree this isn't a great story, as the moral seems to be bribery is good. To see the underdog children have their moment of glory was lovely though. Viewers likely may have enjoyed Tarentino films, Goodfellas, even Pretty Woman - all with dubious morals but none using convicted dangerous actors . Please try to see what the play is about. It is _not_ about glorifying paedophilia. It is not a masterpiece. I applaud natural ginger Catherine Tate for broaching what may have been sensitive memories for her.

[@michaelleacy]

I bet this was strange for her to be playing her own mother in a real life situation. strange though that they didn't make a slight change - should have switched to alvin stardust or someone
