American Reacts AL MURRAY - Edinburgh and Beyond REACTION

[@Darrenski]

Ive never known an American who gets our humour so well.

[@SouthpawDavey]

My son here in Switzerland has teacher called miss muff. I am English I cracked up when I was told. I haven't met her fortunately.

[@bobgoodall1603]

I learned that there's a place by that name just outside Londonderry, not far from the coast, I know this because a workmate went to a wedding there (40 + years ago) and as the night wore on he was asking about divers in the area.

[@SouthpawDavey]

@@bobgoodall1603 We have a place near me called Wankdorf that I also find hilarious. Dorf means village. When we mover here I saw it and told my wife we can never live there.

[@jewishmonarch6657]

You have to meet her and tell her, she might not know mush. XD

[@SouthpawDavey]

@@jewishmonarch6657 Thats another story a few years ago mushy peas were imported here it made national news.

[@ianoo23]

@@bobgoodall1603 there is a teacher at my girlfriend’s kid’s school and when he told us her name I was 100% certain he’d misheard so asked him again “are you sure that’s her name” he looked at me all serious and I didn’t want to make a big deal of it as I’d draw attention to how funny it is! 😂😂😂 Her name is Miss Clittso 😂😂😂

[@scrappystocks]

Al Murray is a very clever guy from a "well to do" army officer's family. He went to a smart boarding school, which he loathed. The character he plays as the pub landlord is far different from the way he talks and acts in reality. He has a Masters Degree in History from Oxford University and an amazing knowledge of geography and general knowledge. Brilliant man.

[@joeblack8915]

He's a tosser - and, worst of all, an unfunny one. Having a degree doesn't make him less so. And no, I couldn't give a damn about any insult thrown at me. Murray is still a tosser.

[@twisted2836]

The entire world already knows. You see there's this thing called "The Internet" and on it there's this thing called "The KZbin comments section" where everybody knows everything, yet there's always (somehow) somebody who thinks history is something that only started when THEY noticed it.

[@prominerz6701]

@@twisted2836 This was clearly for the uploader whos american. I love them but we cant count on them to be aware of the world its not in their nature.

[@CarlWheatley-wi2cl]

This guy is a genius at improvising comedy in real time. That's a completely different ball game than scripted stand-up.

[@ComaDave]

As soon as I heard "Shazza!" I knew she was one of us. His Melbourne knowledge is pretty good. It's probably spelled "Myf" which is short for Myfanwy and is of Welsh origin.

[@Darrenski]

There was a Little Britain character called Myfanwy and yes he was (pretending to be) Welsh. I'll take a guess that it's most popular in NSW. Although that's probably too obvious. EDIT: 'she', obviously *

[@TheCornishCockney]

We knew a girl with that name,her parents were Welsh. We called her My Fanny.

[@charlesfrancis6894]

Have not seen this before so thanks for showing Al is so so funny.

[@AlienNationLiveEvents]

Absolute pleasure to share in your laughter at this one. It's a gem and cheered me up too.

[@ianmcsherry5254]

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe was one of the platforms that gave Al his initial big success as The Pub Landlord. As I recall, his first year here, he played in a pretty small venue. Word of mouth led to him doing really well though, and by the next time he came, he was much bigger box office. It's Festival time again here in Edinburgh, through August. City is mobbed, and a new generation of artists are stepping onto the boards..

[@ThePillenwerfer]

Al Murray has also made some damned good serious history documentaries.

[@Lv1Magikarp]

Al is superb, never gets old

[@mcmackmuckm8180]

I know you're seeing it for the first time, but I loved watching it for the umpteenth time with your reactions. Thanks.

[@leighmonty13]

Al Murray is just brilliant

[@domgarwell5581]

Al Murray certainly knows how to work the audience, it is just a character he plays, he actually has a masters degree in history from Oxford University, he's also multi lingual - I think he's fluent in French, Spanish, German and also speaks Japanese and Chinese. He's a very intelligent man, he doesn't seem to have much of a script at his stand up shows, he mainly just bounces off the audience, but he has to remember a lot of people and they're jobs!

[@paulk4662]

Al is class..

[@alanhogg9939]

Freddie Starr - his "Vincent" routine - '93, stereo

[@MichaelLamming]

I had an abdominal surgery, afterwards my testicles swelled up to the size of two Jaffa oranges 🍊🍊 and were so painful I couldn't stand the pain. That was a month ago, and the swelling has gone down, but I can't get them comfortable.

[@bradsims9252]

Alright Billy Big bollocks

[@Electrowave]

Enjoyed this one 🙂

[@BAALABZV]

All Murry Deff Got Some Australian Action After That Show, Just Sayin.! 😅🎉😂

[@ak99uk]

Loved him as big brother Alan, in Harry Hill's show on C4.

[@cyberash3000]

you need to watch al murrays time gentlemen please, its his sitcom its hilarious

[@PaulAJacksonMusic]

Stewart Lee's amazing "Joe Pasquale Joke" routine is from one these Edinburgh And Beyond shows and you really need to see it

[@paulashe61]

Tickler or unstick your nads to your inner thigh

[@juankusoff]

I had this recorded on Sky+ for years lol, it was on Paramount (which is now Comedy Central) Jason Manford had a great set on this, too!

[@brucedickinson12]

Seen al in June in uk . Brilliant show

[@user-ig4ki2hh4x]

Pub landlord is back with a new tour of uk and ireland starting in October...tickets are around £35 ( 44 dollars )

[@christonkinson8473]

A patchy face ... good one I laughed a little 😂😂

[@richardboyce2006]

His knowledge of the second world war is unbelieveable. He's published one book called "Command" and has a second one due out later this year on Arnhem. He also co-hosts a podcast called "We Have Ways of Making You Talk"

[@mrdog4529]

We always have to keep an eye on the old coinpurse, simply good inventory management

[@roymillsjnr5172]

Pub landlord is there any left 😂

[@davidholgate123]

Disappearing unbelievably fast... All part of the plan!

[@joshuacauser]

Al Murray is great on taskmaster, also “10 years ago I had apache face, not saying I’m Indian American” KB you muppet 🤣

[@zenadavis6069]

Haven’t seen this before, only watched it because it had your name attached to it. Al Murray is rather good isn’t he? 😂❤️

[@ottconsulting7]

Take a look at Al when he goes through in reverse order every UK PM and slaughters them based on their records - a tour de force of comedy and very clever.

[@DavidSmith-cx8dg]

I'd not seen this a d loved both it and your reaction .

[@SpookyFox1000]

You seem to love our British humour ! I saw some of Chris Rock and after a few minutes I would have been more likely to laugh if I’d been told I had cancer !

[@bigd4358]

Really hope you and queen boomer get a chance to see Al, I've been to every tour with my Dad. They're always a good laugh and every gig is different because of his audience interaction, which he's certainly focused a lot more on in his current tour. Hopefully some new videos will appear soon. In the mean time I'd highly recommend watching "why bacon proves the existence of God" [Edit: just found you have done this one but it wasn't in the Al Murray playlist] Also it's not widely known on KZbin, but he did a show called multiple personality disorder which is a series of shorts with different characters. There's full episodes on KZbin so you would hopefully be able to react to them

[@dannycraig1980]

I've not got an apache face 😂😂😂😂😂👏

[@paulhanson5164]

Jason Byrne was in the opening credits, he has some good routines.

[@hiramabiff2017]

SADLY ! Our Mr Murray is none too keen on bringing back the character that we all fell in love with as a nation that made him a national treasure, and a small fortune. Too manly & too British. It will conflict with his current status.

[@HughShower]

HAPPILY ! You are 100% WRONG! His current tour, which I’m going to see in October, is his pub landlord character. Your attempt to spread disinformation was pathetic.

[@HeadbangerTomcat]

I have a long time female friend whose family name is Muff. We've been to see Al Murray live many times, especially at the recordings of his sitcom series Time Gentlemen Please, and he's taken the piss out of her name on stage numerous times, particularly as he started to recognise us. When Time Gentlemen Please ended, we were fortunate enough to be invited to the wrap party thanks to Al. When the party was over and the guests and cast started to leave, Al and some helpers were giving out commemorative pint and wine glass sets with the show name printed on them. I still have my set.

[@RaceDayReplay]

the pub landlord series was called Time Gentlemen Please. I think it's all on Al Murray's youtube channel

[@floydster23]

That is insane how well he knows Melbourne.

Well if you tour or work there for a bit it’s not difficult.

I think he started as the pub landlord in a TV programme called, ¨Time Gentlemen Please¨, around 2000. But has had a varied time, as stand up comic, historian, & lots more.

[@grahambuckerfield4640]

He started at Edinburgh in the early 90’s, I saw him many times from the mid 90’s to the late 2000’s, plus was in the audience for a recording of a series one episode of Time Gentlemen Please. From upstairs in pub function rooms to large venues. The podcast with his friend and renowned WW2 historian James Holland is excellent, last year Murray published his first serious book, Command, to critical acclaim from established historians.
