@veinknamjenbi What does Ricky Gervais have anything to do with this act..? Also, both Ricky and Dylan started getting famous at about the same time, around 2001. I don't know what you're getting at mate.
Nor David O'Doherty's. HOW do they rationalize pronouncing it " O 'Dock' erty"?! There IS no 'G' ! I suspect it's a 'taking a piss' every time, as though the person mispronouncing the Irish name is making fun of the language :the thought process may go something like this:
"What is this name? What is this spelling? It appears to be rediculous English. I'm pronouncing it correctly - What a silly person."
@Nevidge I pronounce it correctly and I am American. However, my friend from childhood who was Irish was a Moran and their family pronounced it ' moe RAHN',with the emphasis on the second syllable. I recall many Americans pronounced it with a twangy 'A' as in 'ant' instead of 'aunt'.
I kinda like Dylan Moran and all but ... Sometimes I cant help thinking that he saw Eddie Izzards show and stole his onstage persona. It could be just a coincidence though.
When he walks onstage he just looks like he's going to let loose a stream of expletives...or hack up a lung or something. Every time I see him it's what I expect, and yet he *never does it*.
@Menla1 I'm English and I've always said Moran like "more-an" because that's how it looks. Most people I know say "more-an" and they're all English. But anyway, I think it's strange when hosts of shows don't put the effort in to learn how to pronounce their guest's names. Is it so difficult?
@willowtree95 Actually i thought that too :L But my dad went to school with Dylan and turns out its the way he is lol He was the exact same when he was younger lol
@willowtree95 He's not drunk. You can tell, he's acting drunk, he's very good at it. if you've seen johnny vegas when he IS drunk and when he is acting drunk it's very easy to tell, same with Dylan.
I watched one of his stand-up performances and I had absolutely no idea what he was saying. His accent makes him hard to understand. He did a bit about going to a marriage between a Catholic & a Protestant and that was funny but he uses local idioms and that only makes him harder to understand. I lived in England for 2 and a half years so I know quite a lot but there's still too much that I never got to learn.
It's more like "More un" or "More in", or even "Mourn" if you say it quickly, with the stress on the first syllable of the name rather than the second.
I'm fairly sure that's what bluggh was going for, actually. I think he was trying to demonstrate where the stress of the name lies, more than the pronunciation of the initial vowel sound.
Dylan, next to my next up and coming favorite Kirk Fox, is the best! what I like about them is that it's not just an act, they are really like this. Dylan, carry on mate...
It does a bit. But the voice before her is definitely Simon Pegg and he talks about "Simon and Jess" when he comes out (and that little run across the stage definitely looks like our Spaced duo).
He started off quite brilliant when he was young, and he's only grown and improved since then. He's fucking fantastic, intelligent and attractive. Dylan Moran #1 Comedian, hands and pants down!
I agree with you. how could anyone think dylan is boring!!! these ppl shouldnt even exist.... D moran is a comedy genius, so unique and gifted 'vikram301' u obviously do not have a sense of humour
Brilliant!!
