Rab C. Nesbitt Dole Office

Clip of Rab at the Dole Office.

[@asankagurusinghe6128]

I never appreciated this when I was a kid. Rab is a legend. Comedy of pain and defeat.

[@worthlessdollar1]

My dad could never bring himself to watch Rab C. His own dad not only sounded exactly like him, but looked the same too - even down the wearing a vest, lol

[@taboo1459]

That's my pops 😜 although we joke that as he's aged, he's a bit more, shaved lol and now looks more like Gregor Fisher ❤️

[@PinstripeShirt]

I think that's what makes Scottish comedy so easily accessable/approachable. It kinna holds a mirror up to the audience and says "This is who we are".

[@MissRosie89]

'wi' yer haircut & yer O-level' ... God, I love Rab.

[@millar16]

"aw well fair enuff fair enuff mibies i'll take a wee slug noo and again a wee drink mibies i'll faw doon n mibi i'll stand back up again n mibi i'll chib some bastard" genius

[@sophietopham8822]

Thanks for this always needed subtitles for Rab

[@Silver-505]

Still absolutely hilarious until this day what a legend 🤣

[@Cybopath]

@manicmacintosh It's Scots-English in a Glaswegian accent which probably makes it even harder for anyone outside Scotland to understand. yet we in Scotland manage to understand Cockneys, New Yorkers, Gordies, Texans, Scousers, Dubliners etc etc.

[@jochenstacker7448]

I literally cannot understand a single word. 😁

[@davidzof]

@@jochenstacker7448 KZbin's closed captions do awrigh'

[@Angus917]

I find this dead easy to understand, and i'm only 14,and i've spent half my life in France. Rab C. Nesbitt, Chewin' the Fat and Still Game are three of the funniest shows i've ever seen. (Maybe I can understand this well because my dad speaks Scots)

[@FreeToDoWhatWeTellYou]

Well, now it's 11 years later, so you'll only be 25. And in another 50 years you'll only be 75. And in another 50 years you'll only be dead.

[@reecenolan]

"sign this Nesbitt" and "dont brek the pens" Comedy Gold

[@JoeSonic5678]

lmao Rab is a legend can't wait for the christmas special

[@chrismitchell4808]

Amazing, a sketch from likes of Naked video, and Chewin the fat, goes well with these characters, but they spawn something even better likes of Rab C Nesbitt, and Still Game, those two series took the decade's of the early 90s, 2000s and even right up till the end of the 2010s, by storm, loved them and still do!

[@mummyd1990]

Love it absolutely brilliant.

[@andrewmacdonald5158]

The first rabs on telly were comedy gold, I am 100% scottish and it's clear as day what he is saying, i think there some what up above themselves in England and especially the south.

[@MoA-Reload...]

To be fair there were times I'd struggle to understand ppl in Liverpool when I worked there and when I moved to NI it took me months to understand some of them without a drink in them 😂 and I grew up in Lanark where they speak more words per min than a pro typist could keep up with 😂

[@smellypies813]

guy in the back trying not to laugh

[@JadeGee123]

Love Rab C Got Aww His Dvds

[@elitedonk]

I will take the blows boy, and I will do it MY WAYYYYYYY

[@peacefrog1916]

Vote Yes.

[@gman8471]

@alecahauf Um, for English people I think it is more difficult to understand than Scouse, West Country or even Geordie. I suppose it all depends where you're from and what you're familiar with. I've seen Americans saying they sometimes have trouble with what the characters are saying in The Office.

[@voiletwhitehorse]

I understand this and im from devon .

[@BadWebDiver]

I understood (most of) this and I'm from Australia.

[@fionagregory7936]

It is great and funny.

[@yoyo-jw3mo]

[@johnfinbarburke]

[@davidmaxwaterman]

Never before have subtitles been so necessary.

[@andrewmacdonald5158]

Not if your scottish it's clear as day .

[@staberind]

[@statusquorules]

Whats so hard about the last sentence? i heard it first time! its can see yer way clear tae len me 23 pence for my bus fare hame

[@RarianRakista]

Turn on Transcribe Audio, its completely insane.

[@alecahauf]

@bugstrut I am not comparing, what i am saying is like many people form England do not understand much of the Glasgow accent just as people from Glasgow or Aberdeen like find it hard to understand the Scouse or Geordie language. Not that far from us in Glasgow is places like Fife where they say ken instead of know. when i was young i thought almost everyone in Fife was called Ken. In Dundee if u ask for a loaf you get two, ask for half a loaf and a bottle of Lemonade, they ask you what flavour

[@UltraDefender84]

This is sooo much better than Limmy's show!

[@dawatticus]

@tremart93 Yes. And as someone who signed on a couple of times, and it was less shitty than that.... I can understand exactly how shitty he felt :p

[@superstratboy]

Mr Gerbils revenge is spawned by am Hamster by the look of him LOL!

[@ennylekalb]

Did he start singing in the middle of that?

[@BadWebDiver]

Yeah, "My Way"!

[@childofthesun32]

@Cybopath I never said Glaswegians sound Spanish or German. So I'll stop commenting as you aren't keeping up with the conversation.

[@Alanm1987]

Sign here nesbitt and don't break the pens

[@alecahauf]

@daveedo20 My arse i have lived in Glasgow all my life and i assure you you would need to look really hard to find even a few people who even resembled this.

[@Danny_single999]

I think I understood one word

[@ChrisCarter1983]

@Ryctophaze94 lmfao awesome!

[@nodachi81]

@vulcan1981 "can you see yer wiy clear tae lending me 23pence fir ma bus fare hame"

[@alecahauf]

@sezwheelz Aye, go to Billy connolly Glasgow accents nine and a half guitars on KZbin and it will give you a wee idea about the Glasgow accent. Some people think that when we say Mullguy it is the Glasgow way to say it but although the town is spelt Minlgavie it is rightly pronounced Millguy.

[@childofthesun32]

@Cybopath I mean that I think that years ago peoples from all over the world would come to Glasgow and try to speak English with their different accents and the Glaswegian accent was born out of this combination of all these accents mixing together. I've heard Spanish people and German people talking and thought they were Glaswegian and it's not until I actually hear German words or whatever that I realise they aren't.

[@LaloShiruba]

Damn what did he say?

[@BadWebDiver]

You'll never know! ;)

[@Cybopath]

@childofthesun32 I have heard a Glaswegian accent pal, I have lived in Glasgow, I have worked with Glaswegians and I do have Glaswegian and west coast family and they don't sound german or spannish. This (People from all over the world) theory you have is pretty thin Considering London and other English cities have had far greater immigration. Glaswegian and the whole west coast is a lowland Scottish accent with a slight influence from Irish immigration at best.

[@alecahauf]

@Williamwallace0 Yes, most likely. All i'm trying say is that most UK accents are difficult to understand in various parts of the country whilst others present no problems. It depends where you are from. I.E. Pakistani's who speak in bad English accents to each other canm easily understand each other but if they speak to us they have a problem understanding and we them, if that makes any sense

[@childofthesun32]

@Cybopath Have you ever heard a Glaswegian accent? Rab C isn't even speaking in a Glaswegian accent here. This is TV Glaswegian. Softened, with words pronounced properly so it can be shown in other areas and not just Glasgow. Also, you can't know for certain how an accent will develop just because certain peoples go to a place. I might be right, I might be wrong. I'm also a musican, I have no trouble whatsoever understanding accents. I listen to and differentiate between sounds and tones often

[@thebigr1710]

@vulcan1981 could you see you way clear to lending me 23 pence

[@alecahauf]

@graemeoliver84 It's not any more difficult i suppose than understanding scouse, Geordie or West Country or that but as i am Glasweigian i have no bother with it.

[@Beetroot_]

@alecahauf Most from scotland would find it easier to understand scouse or geordie better than most of the south

[@TheBeardbeard]

Needs English subtitles

[@ELPaso1990TX]

See yee by the way

[@sergeantbatman]

@obmat22 You're talking socio-politics on a Rab C Nesbitt video?

[@yambasz]

hame

[@Cybopath]

@childofthesun32 If that where the case Every port city in the USA would have a Glaswegian accent. The Glasgow accent is just a far west accent you can hear the west accent kick in at Livingston and it doesn't stop till ayrshire. If you thought German or Spannish people where glaswegian or had anything to do with influening the Glaswegian accent you have trouble with understanding accents. The only country that could possibly have an influence on the west coast accent is Ireland.

[@EdnaBetsyShoww]

NEW VIDEO! YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT ALL! IT WILL BLOW YOUR MINDS:O YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT TOO SEE ALL THE RANDOMNESS! AHHHAHAHA. THANKS! =] -edna and betsy!!

[@georgeward1527]

So funny

[@deirdrestewart4394]

😂😂😂👋👋👋

[@forresg500]

Love it!!!! W hen he said I might chib some b!@stard

[@NormMaclean33]

what is talking about hahahaha

[@childofthesun32]

@Cybopath I think that's a combination of the Glaswegian accent being kind of made up of sounds from all different accents around the world - so we have experience with those sounds...... And of course TV.... TV shows always have Cockneys, New Yorkers, Geordies, Texans, Scousers, Dubliners etc...... So we hear them all the time.... How often do other places hear a Glaswegian in a TV Show.... Even today with pish like River City... It's still a heavily softened fake Glaswegian.

[@tremart93]

does anyone actually know what he was saying?

[@andrewmacdonald5158]

I am scottish and it's clear as day to understand.

[@SuperMikado282]

Yes.

[@Frozen_Waterfall]

Turn on Transcribe Audio and see what non-Scottish people hear!

[@gman8471]

@RarianRakista It's useless. I tried it on a video of the Queen's speech and it couldn't even get that right.

[@rocknrolllives]

23 pence for bus fare? wish it was that cheap now

[@locrock]

mate. Funnily enough, if you haven't grown up listening to a certain accent then it's tricky to understand it. Especially if you don't hear it much. You don't hear strong accents much cus most people don't understand them.. that's just how it works. and dont tell me you can understand every regional slang in England cus i know i can't. You say things like 'wallaper'.. but that's not accent that's just using different words. ALSO i think davidmaxwaterman thingy meant his comment light heartedly.

[@TheSgrogan]

@vulcan1981" can you see your way clear to lend me 23 pence for my bus fare home"

[@bigcrispyhied]

@vulcan1981 .....lend=loan....can you loan me 23p for bus fare home,with no hope of getting it back.

[@superstratboy]

So Mr Gerbils revenge,where are you from?.......let me guess,the spawn of a Hamster?????LOL

[@DugEatinBeetroot]

think ull find that its a "string simmet" :)
