I Turn Colin Furze’s Tunnel Dirt into Art

[@alispagnola]

Who thinks my sheep sweater was a sensible purchase?

[@TheOddDuckDesigns01]

I do!!

[@faolanfeeley1023]

I do I have one like it 😂

[@RyleighHowell-mt6kq]

it was sorta sensible... in ways

[@xXC1xv3rxx]

MEEE

[@Avanixunicorn]

ME

[@colinfurze]

Well waiting for british soil to dry out is something i can relate to lol. As for the name ,the tunnel itself was called Terry while it was being being dug in secret (before you lot knew about it ha) and the dirt you got is from where the delorean will be parked which was made famous by Doctor Emmet Brown so maybe theres some inspiration in those for the name, "Dr Terry" "Terry Brown" "Terry Mc BrownFace" Either way what a great piece or work Ali.

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

YES!

[@wteff8586]

It's terrycotta after all

[@Phil_Cleaver]

Of course it could just be called Colin.

[@TBButtSmoothy]

you sure trusted a secret on the wrong person

[@woolfy101]

PG Tetley, in respect to the fuel.

[@AncientPottery]

What a fun project, glad I could help. Fingers crossed for the firing.

[@MrShortyShrimp]

You're an absolute Gem between the Dirt 😁

[@odeode4338]

Now let‘s all subscribe to Andy!

[@Greyapas]

When she said "Wild Clay", I instantly thought of your content. And then was amazed and overjoyed that someone had pointed her your way.

[@AncientPottery]

@@Greyapas I had never seen Ali before she reached out. So glad she did.

[@VarionJimmy]

@@odeode4338Yes! (I’ve subscribed since ..I guess it’s a couple of months now.)

[@baxteradam]

To maintain a fine British tradition of naming on the internet, I suggest Guardy McGuardface

[@amav9464]

#Clayton_McBrittyBlightyGuard🤔?💂🏽‍♂️

[@NilsBallmann]

I was going more for the origin with Colin McFurzeface but your suggestion works very well, sir.

[@MollyFreckle]

This is the most British name Ally could call him

[@amav9464]

I like the idea of having a tribute to #BoatyMcBoatFace😅 in there somewhere {but I hope he doesn't somehow get named #DavidAttenborough again, ~just to spits us…} +Since, looking at the other suggestions around too, I chose to update my finalised Total Combination-pitch to: #LittleBen_Clayton_McBrittyBlightyGuardFace 🫡💂‍♀️"{repoting4duty}#Sir!" {P.s.~The more I say:McBritty~ it also reminds me of #McVitie’s, which is a classic British-Biscuit-Company, for those not in the know, from across the pond🇬🇧😋}

[@resurgam_b7]

I propose: Lieutenant Furze Tunelle as a tribute to the his iconic place of origin.

[@benjaminburchfield]

Clayton Furze, Royal Guardian of the Peace!🥰

[@English-Lass]

I love this name!

[@Chironseth1970]

Hi Ali. A Brit here. The figure you’re making there is a member of The Kings Guard. They are actually soldiers and not law enforcement. Also just a fun fact that everyone muddles up. The hats they wear are called “bearskins” and not “busbys” busby is worn by British and Canadian hussar and also artillery units. I love him by the way, great job 😃

[@giannamariastroppa]

Thank you for mentioning us Canadians.

[@Chironseth1970]

@@giannamariastroppa my pleasure Gianna. 🙂

[@veronikahreskova2963]

Since Big Ben is probably one of THE british things and the guard is the opposite of big... Little Ben. That´s my suggestion anyways.

[@GuilhermePalacio]

Absolutely genius. I vote for Little Ben!

[@ripvanstinkle]

Little Ben is solid

[@CBcoffeebean1]

That is so cute and so genius

[@michaelgplayzz]

Little Ben short for little Benjamin jr

[@scarletboorman-zz6tb]

i'm British and i feel like little ben is a perfect name. Or we could go little benny like big ben and ben and jerry's ice cream

[@TheMovieLoft]

My wife is a potter here in the uk, wild clay is unpredictable, it can ‘melt’ when you fire it time will tell. Love this stuff thanks Ali

[@-GachaPlayz-]

"It can't be just British. It has to be very Brit." A normal thing on Ali's channel. I love the videos!!

[@cuzwerecute]

in pun fashion: Bobby, like a British police man

[@1st1anarkissed]

I couldn't imagine a better name than Colin. Extremely British and it came from Colin's dirt. He is so insanely cute!

[@JonLake]

If the sculpture survives the kiln, you should make a mold of it in silicone and sell a couple dozens of copy! Maybe resin pour of ceramic pour ? That would be awesome 😍

[@MattDawg99]

Love that you are much more relaxed and in a healthier mindset while filming these videos. We love and support you. I think the name of your figure has to be CLAYton :)

[@bonnieharris4538]

I like that! That, or Cassius... y'know, because he's clay! 😂

[@dylandreisbach1986]

“Technically this wasn’t stolen, it was a gift.” The British have been saying this for a long time, don’t feel guilty. Just put this dirt in a museum and you can keep it forever.

[@DCII]

My grandfather had the most British name possible, Burdell Puddicombe. And no middle name btw lol. Just thought it fit the little dude 😎

[@odeode4338]

Now THAT‘S a name 💂🇬🇧💂🇬🇧

[@AJratcliffe]

He's a Little Lord Furze!

[@motor_misc]

ALI! I met you at makers central I don’t know if you remember but I made you sign my model hovercraft (I have finished my video about it now 😃). Can I just say it was so cool to meet you I think you are awesome 😀😎❤ Greetings from a UK Pal-y😊 P.S. please make this comment blow up so Ali sees it

[@Aviationtimeboys]

Ok we will

[@Drag0ndrift3r]

Palo

[@goldenghostinc]

Suddenly a wild Matt appears! Never thought I would see THAT crossover! 👍

[@Arvind-dev]

It makes it even more funny cause matt did a pottery class on tech diff. 😂

[@audreywright7162]

I recently discovered this channel, and it is amazing. It has been the background for my own outrageous project (turning my artwork into a rug using a punch needle) love your work

[@faolanfeeley1023]

I think ˋ Colin ´ would be a great name for him because the dirt came from his tunnel and he allowed you to take some so without him you wouldn’t even be making a little English solider so I think you should call him Colin .Thank you! LOVE your art it’s amazing!😂❤❤

[@tracybowling1156]

I am so proud of you for learning something new in every video. And you're meeting tons of new peeps. That has to be super cool!

[@Esmehognose]

Happy 100th outrageously awesome art and creation

[@Sapphires_sadness]

Ali I'm not going to lie your my favorite youtuber to watch cause the way you build models and a Pikachu, camouflage piano, chichi car, (did I spell that right?), the Ali candy corn head, infinity door, sculped room of foam,life sized rug dog, velvet bicycle, a mood ring car, chichi toilet, everything! I love this channel and I want these videos to keep going!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Sapphires_sadness]

>:D

[@TheRealInscrutable]

Anything with Matt Gray gets a yes.

[@OliverMay1]

As a Brit I am really looking forward to how this turns out (don't let me down Spagnola!) and also I fully approve of the design choice! I also lovew that you got Matt Gray involved, been a big fan of his for along time. Regarding the name, if you could incorporate Furze that would be really fitting. How about "Captain Bartholomew Barley Furze of the King's Guard, protector of the " or something like that maybe?

[@ca-ke9493]

I would like to say these two multi episode project has been one of the more fun and interesting videos you've done recently. I initially skipped over them because I didnt know who Colin Furze was. But this is such a cute project and I love the learning of pottery and I love that its a much less stressed out video :D i have grown to care about Little Ben so much :D

[@xingcat]

British clay becoming sculpture! It reminds me of when Atomic Shrimp made little pots out of clay he dug up in his backyard!

[@fhdang8978]

I loved seeing the faces of my friends after I bought dirt from Colin (and got it signed!) that and the poster for makers central

[@Lizlodude]

I'm glad someone else feels that way about vacations. Seeing people is great, but the travel is always the cost of seeing people or experiences for me. Also a wild Matt Gray appears!

[@mikki_s1100]

This is so cool! I love that you can do projects like this now with 2 parts. Love when you tell us about materials your reusing from prior projects, it shows how resourceful you are, and also how far the patrons contributions go! 😊

[@SchnitzelDaemon]

Oh it's Matt Grey! Yes 😉

[@AdelWolf]

Oh Gods that you and Matt are friends delights me, but shouldn't surprise me - you both have that wonderful golden retriever energy

[@kevinlyon9501]

Colin will love this, I'm sure if he could he'd send you loads more clay.

[@gracemoore1616]

I just woke up and this was JUST posted I’m so happy!!

[@wteff8586]

Relaxed Ali AND a surprise Matt Gray? What a great video!

[@jaspergoesrawrr]

Fabulous!!! Look forward to the finished sculpture

[@lindseydrummond5658]

I admire your commitment to your creativity so much! You always just go for it and know you can figure it out in the end. Even when things go wrong in the middle you get there in the end or learn from the failures!!! Love your energy!!

[@OlliEs1977]

0:57 when you translate "furze" from german into english, you don´t want to eat it anymore 🤣

[@smilinduck]

Came to suggest CLAYton as you love your puns and was not disappointed by the pants pally community coming up with the same suggestion. Love the suggestion of Clayton Furze as a tribute to Colin.

[@nikinoodles7017]

Can’t believe you came all the way to England to hang out with Colin Furze……he’s crazy ( in a cool way..just like you!)

[@Kombivar]

Great to see Matt visiting - so unexpected!

[@geek9642]

I love that I’ve just discovered your channel and the fun videos that you make.. looking forward to seeing how this turns out fingers crossed 🤞

[@catlover1466]

Oh my goodness, I am feeling so happy for you and with you!! Thank you for taking care of your well-being. ❤🎉 I adore your creations! This tiny dude is very cute! Suggestion: Muddy Bennie (I got inspired by someone who suggested the name Little Ben due to the Big Ben being very brittish).

[@nurmr]

1:19 From wikipedia: "The Grenadier Guards the most senior infantry regiment of the British Army". I think that's British enough :-)

[@Zeldur]

Matt Grey :O. I love their channel. I wonder if they still make random soft serves

[@sharfold]

Gordon Furze for the hero name. Being a brown coloured clay model…Gordon Brown, Gordon also coming from Gordon’s London dry gin and you made a a trump cap into “Make America a gin” cap and Furze because it comes from Furze digging so homage to him. Fantastic work on the clay model. Really loving the part 1 and 2 video format and glad you're doing better for it with not being so stressed.

[@niklaswejedal463]

Hoping you will keep doing mulitple episode videos - love the suspence of seeing the result and that the project gets more time to be fully done and therefore more outrageous. Go, Ali!

[@sparo_art]

Oh he's so cute! Also, i didn't know you could process wild clay like that! My parent's garden is super clay-y and as a child I used to make bowls and stuff out of it ^^ I think I'll try processing it this summer :D

[@yuGtahT]

Ali, you are a KZbinr. You can in fact do like all the other KZbinrs do! Also please collab more!

[@Miscellaneous_Minx]

So excited to see the outcome!! As for a name, maybe “Sir Clay” or just “Dirt Man”

[@MickHealey]

Love this project Ali. Looking forward to the next episode. May I suggest Busby Furze. 'Busby' is the name of the furry headdress he is wearing. 'Furze' is a nod to Colin, but also sounds like fur, from which the headdress is made.

[@KOKO-uu7yd]

My two top votes: *Quenby* meaning "Queens Village" and *Onslow* (I LOVE the old Brit show "Keeping Up Appearances") Others I found were: *Gregor* - meaning "a watchman" or "one who is vigilant" *Chester* - "camp of the fortress" Other names seeming very "Brit" were: Albert, Barnaby, Alfred, Chadwick, Conall, Felix, Oliver, Sheridan, Jarvis, Percival.... And I decided that was enough 😂 I know I've got too many names offered to "win", but I hadn't seen any offered yet in comments and I wanted to help 😂 Great job Ali! My daughter and i harvested "wild clay" a fewnyears ago, but my kid lost interest. I wonder if i can still find it...🤔😉

[@pileofstuff]

If he is to be Onslow he'll need a pint glass, not a tea cup.

[@KOKO-uu7yd]

@@pileofstuff 😅👍 Perhaps I should have gone with "Sheridan" lol

[@guydonovan1218]

Might I suggest "Leftenant Holoman"? Get it? Hollow man... Holoman? 😁

[@CptFUBAR]

YAY! I'm being slightly facetious when I say this, but I'm glad to see more multi-parters! It really is cool to see you branching out and goin to other freaking COUNTRIES! So glad I met ya through Great Night/Night Attack. Keep being weird!

Clay B. Feater (queens guards are called beefeaters)

[@funkyk5086]

Technically they’re not. The only Kings Guards called Beefeaters are those who serve in the Tower of London. The rest are just the Kings Guard.

[@scarletboorman-zz6tb]

btw the queen died, so he can't be called clay b

[@TheBeerBox80]

I second this one.

[@bonnieharris4538]

Lol. 'Ghosted by a robot'... that's my life too! I'm often ghosted by a bot to the background sounds of Fur Elise! Who knew such a small title could actually translate to 'music to force people to listen to because you can't be bothered to deal with them; and it'll work great because eventually they'll get frustrated and bored and hang up'!
