I know I have a biased POV when it comes to Brits, but I have to say that I find them to be particularly articulate and witty. Even when drunk and starring in a parody, this guy's historically accurate ^_^ It just further validates my attraction for this culture!

[@adambakas13]

How very British.

[@dlxmarks]

That's an example of why I tend to prefer the US version. The US presenters unselfconsciously ramble but the Brits, despite drinking enough alcohol to render me comatose, still feel a need to maintain control and be clever. Most of the time they are trying to deliver the same lines they would if they were sober.

[@chikitabowow]

The irony when Sir Walter Raleigh is played by Jack Whitehall, and the real Sir Walter Raleigh was actually executed at Whitehall Palace in 1618 x)

If they did, they would seem weak

[@punkwrestle]

They probably can’t due to prohibitions on promotion of alcohol on American TV shows.

[@speeeee35]

Valnerei You guys are so young. The original show on funny or die (website) before it was picked up by Comedy Central did say exactly what they drank. It got taken away when it went on tv. So that IS an American thing. Sorry SUCKERSSSSSS.

[@speeeee35]

3:25 The truly interesting thing about 'Sir Walter & Tobacco' is that, in fact, he was smoking marijuana with the Indians; and marijuana has nicotine in it, so you become addicted to the nicotine; and, when you (an Indian) go off hunting, you don't want to be smoking marijuana, but you don't want to be withdrawing from nicotine so ... you smoke tobacco; so ... when Raleigh was leaving to go back to England, he said to the Indians, "I am going on a long journey, can I have some of that to take with me?"; the Indians, thinking he was going on a long journey and therefore did not want to withdraw from nicotine, gave him ... tobacco. What he really wanted to take back was marijuana!! England would be a very different place now if people had been drinking beer and smoking pot for all these last few centuries, now would it not ?.!}@..@{!.?

[@ShengTooFlash]

okay,since when did weed have nicotine in it?

[@firstlast-wg2on]

A nice completely made up story, cannabis has no nicotine in it.

Pretty sure there’s little historical basis for Queen Elizabeth being in love with Raleigh, although it’s a popular depiction. Raleigh’s relationship with Elizabeth Throckmorton was actually very romantic: they were married in secret, which was the real transgression against the queen, who imprisoned them in the Tower of London for a number of years. In trying so hard to make this funny and dramatic they made it ahistorical, even though the truth is equally interesting
