Fritz Messerschmitt on extension 109. The Messerschmitt ME109 was one of the most dangerous Luftwaffe fighter planes during the second world war

[@celticguy197531]

it was the most widely used and the most built but the tag of the dangerous Luftwaffe fighter would have to go to the Focke Wulf, that plane was just something else. Well that is what I think anyways

[@kathydoyle1857]

Still didn't beat the Spitfire though!

When he's impersonating the German guy, he's speaking German with English grammar, basically. So if you know a little German and English, you get the gist. When he's doing the hip thrusts and all of that stuff, he's going on about football/soccer results. Singing "You're shit and know you are" (Sie sind Scheiss und sie kennen sie sind) about England who were "Auss in die erste Raunde" (Out in the first round). He's also talking about how Germany beat Argentina in the final and gave them a very nice Arschficken (..."backside romping" *cough* ) and how they beat Brazil 7-1. He also sings "Es kommt zu Hause" (It's coming home), which is what English fans are known to sing when they get anywhere past the initial rounds.

[@elitestarquake3597]

It’s German for non-German-speaking English people. The German equivalent of “Frenglish”.

The Messerschmitt Bf109 was one of the more prolific fighter plane models in the Luftwaffe during the earlier part of WW2, especially around the time of the Battle of Britain. A lot of the other names of the Germans he mentions later in the sketch are also references to German WW2 planes, military equipment, etc. Whilst I believe that Al Murray is, himself, pretty-much fluent in German, what he's speaking here is actually what we'd call "Dinglish", which is a comedic, semi-nonsense mix of mostly German and some English, aimed at an English audience, and so most of the grammar and phrasing is English, just using predominantly German vocabulary (much of which he gets pretty spot-on here). A similar thing exists between French and English, called "Franglais".

[@wessexdruid7598]

2:28 "What accent is that?" English public school. (i.e. very expensive _private_ school.)

[@WithTwoFlakes]

The black labrador whose name he can't mention is a clever reference to the 1955 movie "The Dambusters" which any Brit of a certain age will have seen a zillion times. In the movie, Guy Gibson's black labrador is the 617 Squadron mascot and is named "the N word" which 80yrs ago didnt have the same connotation as it does today.

HI LOW Connor buddy. In a weird way your channel is unintentionally different. You're all over the place when you talk, pause or try to work out something but honestly i think that for me is the charm of the channel. Sometimes i cringe, sometimes i laugh and sometimes i agree (rarely) all of those make you interesting and unintentionally funny.

[@lyndarichardson4744]

I agree, I love Connor and his channel, he"s a sweetheart ♥️

[@PiersDJackson]

The Messerschmitt joke is about one of THE German fighter aircraft of WWII, the Bf-109 equivalent to the Spitfire or Mustang... similar in that all three had a supercharged V-12 engine, the main difference was the Germans used them inverted, also there was their superchargers, Roots vs. Centrifugal. *** the joke about the "Favourite Black Labrador" is a dig at the P.C. police wanting to expunge the name of Sir Guy Gibson's dog, Gibson was the Squadron Leader of the Dambusters in WWII, the dog was famously their mascot, tragically was run over whilst the Squadron were over Germany, and was buried in the gardens adjacent to the HQ of their airfield. Firstly the name was that N word that rhymes with digger, secondly the remains were found in fairly recent redevelopment of the site, with an intention of interring them beneath the new anniversary monument.... but wanting to change the name to start with D.

[@IanDarley]

The Messerschmitt BF109 was one of Germany's chief fighter planes. He was speaking to Fritz Messerschmitt on extension 109.

[@SvenTviking]

The thing is that a lot of the traders on the London stock exchange were Cockney wide boys.

[@marcelrenes2435]

I don't think people understood it, but when London got down, in Frankfurt he said 'Wo ist Steiner? Wo ist Steiner?' (Where is Steiner?). If you have seen the movie Downfall (or Der Untergang) you immediatly know the joke. When Hitler was in his bunker in Berlin, he had set his hopes on Steiner to break through the Russian flank and save Berin. Steiner however had too few troops and armour to succeed. When his generals in his bunker told of this failure, he got into a furious rage. This piece of the movie has become a meme on internet.

[@arwelp]

Heinkel, Dornier, Junckers, and Focke-Wulf were all types of Luftwaffe planes in WW2.

[@2eleven48]

Not seen this before. A genius-level stand-up performance. Thank you, Connor. Robert, UK.

[@AnthonyValentine-vm1yc]

I am really surprised you didn't get 109 joke, after all the history vlogs you've done. I have watched this sketch a nuber of times with other US reactors and they double up when the US characters appear. So Al must of nailed the stereotype! I so enjoy your reactions, that they make me lol too.

The black Labrador joke is a reference to the British War Movie the Dam Busters

[@kentthompson3836]

Not just the movie, Guy Gibsons dog was real as was his name 'N****r', He was hit by a car and killed on the day of the Dambusters raid. In 2020 his gravestone was replaced with one which didn't include his name because some people thought it offensive!

[@agdgdgwngo]

@5:22 It's just a big war reference, the Messerschmitt 109 was the primary German fighter plane of WW2. Oh yeah and the bit after, he's translating common English footbal chants into German lol. He's saying "You're shit and you know you are" and "it's coming home". Also the bit about "arschfecken" Argentina... well it's funnier if you work it out for yourself lol.

[@SavageIntent]

His German is definitely not perfect but to be honest he does pronounce most of the words pretty well. I'm curious how much German he can actually speak. You should check out the documentary series he did on Germany, it was very nice.

[@shadybacon3451]

According to a video from 2016, while speaking to Henning Wehn, he states his german isn't good, but his sister is fluent, and she translates things for him.

[@shadybacon3451]

@Wibbly Wobble maybe, but he said it himself, so it depends on how much you trust his word, I guess

[@Jonsson474]

Its not perfect german, just short sentences and single words, but you can certainly follow what he is saying.

[@patrickholt2270]

It should be a fair bit, since his mother came from Austria.

Dambuster - the chap in charge of 633 sqn had a black lab whose name i can't type here. It was run over just before the mission and died. Hence a successful mission would be confirmed by using that word / dogs name
