Prince Philip’s World of Freelanders

[@XunoHa]

I’ve been rewatching some of these old episodes recently and they are pure gold!

[@top_leighton]

I think the dead dog anecdote is as funny for Richard’s reactions as it is Jonny’s matter-of-fact-ness of the delivery. Just snorted tea out of my nose watching it! Gotta be one of the best eps you’ve done. Thank you SO much

[@MattTester]

KZbin just recommended this to me, I think my dad was impressed by the strength of the Freelander 2 after Prince Philip's incident because he bought one a couple of months afterwards. Nice car but the lag between pressing the pedal and the power being delivered is really odd. It's like the ECU is an Apollo guidance computer and it has to have a think.

[@woodrow_mayes]

This channel never fails to make me piss myself laughing, the humour is so genuine. I love it!

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

Woodrow Mayes Cheers. Tell the world!

[@thedeadstig123]

James may did that sort of thing on drivetribe didn't he shouting "standard"

[@7eardstapa7]

17:15 The growing look of disappointment on Richard's face is just hilarious.

[@NJRD977]

Wonderful almost natural beardstroke to get the watch placement in at 1:37

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

Puddings 3112 Genuinely natural, that. Really.

[@shiftydave]

I've had Toni Braxton stuck in my head for the last week. Thanks a bunch.

[@andreasphotiou1886]

shiftydave she could sing the theme tune for unpimp my ride

[@SmallBlogV8]

10:59 - BYD bus. Don't know why I found that interesting, but there it is.

[@Strike86]

I was watching these to try and lull myself to sleep, now that dead dog story is going to keep me awake. Thanks Jonny.

[@m55rwm]

Can't believe you kept the Dog lololololol You guys crack me up every Friday.

[@riczito]

Vintage episode. Loved it.

[@Locost59]

Taking it to a barbecue! How does Jonny's mind work? I laughed until I was wheezing.

[@graemefraser2840]

I want to sneak into Sandringham in the dead of the night, and change the entire fleet of FREELANDER 2 badges to read FREELOADER 2 and see how many newspaper photos they appear in before somebody notices...

[@Mr2OOM]

The dead dog at a party has just made me cry with laughter .. Did you give it a name ?

[@NJRD977]

Their best anecdote ever!

[@SnakeyUk08]

Rofl best episode for ages bravo! :)

[@livingthroughtv]

Oh my god, me too. Not sure if it was the story or the bizarrely rational delivery of the story that got me

[@eddiepollard3319]

first watched this weeks ago and the mere thought of johnnys roast chicken story still makes me instantly laugh, also big ups oranjeboom

[@simono4991]

I was wondering about Phil the Greek’s supply of Freelander 2s but apparently he had another one at Balmoral so they brought it down for him to drive at Sandringham. Makes some sense I suppose.

[@smithandsniff]

Top intel. Thanks. I can sleep well again. Richard

[@brandonlester5992]

I must have been to that same Canadian pub in London. I was on vacation and we walked into that pub to watch a football match on the TV there and get a pint. The walls were like a log cabin effect. I was there in 2005.

[@livingthroughtv]

It's called The Maple Leaf and from memory, it's on Maiden Lane

[@garethnoble3378]

It had just deflated! 🤣🤣🤣

[@girlfromthedwarf]

If 'Unpimp My Ride' gets made, I will die a happy human

[@TheTrooper115]

2nd comment, but get that bloody show pitched to Amazon or something, I'd watch James doing anything remotely mechanical for hours on end, The Reassembler was a dream come true. Just imagining what he'd come out with when he comes across a particularly shoddy bodge is making me chuckle.

[@FFVoyager]

'Unpimp My Ride' is a BRILLIANT idea! Think of all the idiot things that have been done to 4th hand cars before we get them.

[@elyuw]

Ah guys, that dead dog story was fantastically funny!

[@dj_paultuk7052]

Re specialist garages. Its a bit like the "Berkshire Fiesta Center", that sells, well.... Fiestas. Fair play though, it is a car that always sells well and its kept them going for the last 20yrs.

[@thebigmacmoomin]

James May's Un-pimp my ride tv show idea sounds great

[@aclmotorsport4420]

Nissan Bluebird Turbo! Didn't know there were any left. I always wanted the Reliant Scimitar SS1 Turbo which borrowed it's engine.

[@tylerdeveneux6868]

It might've been Metro City next to Heathrow Airport Jonny was thinking about - from memory it got turned into a budget all makes dealership in about 2002

[@LittlePixelTM]

Bimbling around Crouch End... My old hood too!

[@WirelessGriff]

What about Abby from Hull ? Wasn’t there a story?

[@dj_paultuk7052]

Took a mummified decomposed dog to a friends BBQ. As you do..... LOL.

[@RustOnWheels]

Freelander 2 sounds like an eighties action movie with lots of neon, dark wet roads, time travel and Kevin Costner.

[@Locost59]

It sounds like an unbelievably rubbish film where revolutionaries with horns and war paint storm Washington.

[@vanda123vanda]

Good ol’ Scratch and Sniff. If they ever turn this in to a regular series of old geezers reminiscing they should call it “Last of the gearbox whine”.

[@MyMrno1]

ok I'm late to the party I get it but as an Albertan, you can definitely still get Labatts! and the random cars are a Chrystler LeBaron a Nissan Bluebird (91?)

[@SteveMorton]

My son used to live in Stanhope Road, nice area.

[@andrewmurphy5310]

That dead dog story is normally the kind of thing you keep to yourself.

[@Locost59]

In my garage I found a mummified rat. I had no inclination to keep it.

[@adamsmith3254]

4:26 What on earth is happening here?

[@richb326]

The mummified dog!😂

[@biggles50405]

Great episode, shame the conversation about Abbey Eaton left on a tangent. Next season on the Lazyboy Garage, get James May involved un-pimping old cars. 👍😁

[@smithandsniff]

Sorry, I was just going to say that Abbie says some words in a brilliant Hull way. Richard

[@biggles50405]

@@smithandsniff in that lovely Hull accent. 😁

[@livingthroughtv]

@@smithandsniff turd of turd hurl

[@jep1912]

Ahh, I also had an AX GT, my first car. It was as brittle as a frozen Caramac, and could embarass many from the lights. Why the **** did I move to Australia?

[@DGT73]

Nice one😁

[@Snowy-666]

I never knew "teepee for my bunghole" was a reference to bog-roll. It is somehow now less funny...

[@Charlie-UK]

The Royal, Freelanders, are fairly heavily modified, with security features., etc. They probably have a fleet of vehicles, of this modified spec, all the same type...

[@andygolesworthy7530]

Someone get the chicken video..

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

Andy Golesworthy Does anyone know a David Bane from Hull? He will be 44 now.

[@SnakeyUk08]

"Friendly henchman from minder" lol

[@whiteloafers9658]

Much like the government of old buying up stock of Rover P5B's before the end of production. Phil knows what he likes

[@davidmarden4789]

We call them Deadlanders in Oregon....

[@elob5741]

First person I've ever heard not in the North East refer to a cigarette as a 'tab' - everyone southern I meet has no idea what it means!

[@ComradeBenjamin]

The very end reminded me of the inbetweeners

[@pim1234]

Why do i like to watch two guys talk to each other in a car ?

[@planespeaking]

Used to live literally around the corner from Stanhope Road. There’s a house on Stanhope Road full of Russian gangsters.

[@trevypoos]

“I didn’t kill it.” Hmm.

[@oscarfox4570]

But why a Chevrolet Volt? That rank interior is too distracting

[@TheStwat]

"I didn't kill it"

[@tonyyates2012]

I'm liking these wistful trips down memory lane, could you please take us on a tour of old girlfriends you've tupped and the relative merits of each bint, thank you.

[@BabyGonzo5]

Dead dog, we'll look I didn't kill it.

[@TheTrooper115]

Bloody Oranjeboom, used to drink that stuff all the time when I was younger. Not at all bad for what it is to be fair, one of the few things in life that's actually cheap and cheerful.

[@RustOnWheels]

It’s one of the worst Dutch beers. It makes you shart horrendously smelly. It’s worse than those beer fart smells at big summer open air festivals. It’s more like the stench of child diarrhea.

[@WheelchairWonders]

Believe me, the woman was not doing step aerobics.. :/ (Phil)

[@pim1234]

I know, because they are funny and sometimes say something about a car ...

[@crazyfroggie6546]

you're driving a vehicle i've only ever seen 2 of.

[@harryc266]

Nothing worse than a cocky fox

[@YellowPinkie]

Except maybe a mummified dog...

[@stephenSF]

Love these but hated the bit about the dog. What is the matter with people?

[@dplummer35]

Clearly chose the wrong title for this video, it should have been 'I found a dead dog'......left the best until last.

[@Locost59]

Not having any idea that was coming up makes it far funnier.

[@jonathanbeale3978]
