Four Deaf Yorkshiremen

[TheLordMilton]

I can't hear a bloody word?

[MsGingerman]

it's grim up north

[73busymum]

That's funny. I like that one!! I like to watch more..

[ChazsmateIII]

"..that ten pounds is yours." Well he's definitely not a Yorkshireman.

[jimmybob12]

Brilliant, thanks.

[IshmaelSkyes]

I love the idea,and I can see where it's going, but it doesn't seem to quite get there; I think I'd have been more inclined to follow the original structure and ideas more closely and work the deaf thing in alongside. The missing little finger gag works, but the bailiffs that can't understand BSL doesn't, and part of the original gag is that the repeated 'Luxury' contrasts with the luxury they live in now, and if they are just in a WMC, that joke disappears.

I think it needs a tighter script.

[falconwriter]

Wish we could buy it on DVD, the series and we can show the deaf community how much fun there is.

[dpower888]

It fab, wish carry on up to 30mins.

I love it, I have really fun about this video! 5 star give you.

[forkihalei]

this sketch has been re-written for the Deaf audience from four yorkshire men, I am learning to become an intepreter and doing a uni project on translating/interpreting humour to and from BSL, this sketch will not be as humourous to hearing people as for the subject they all try to outdo eachother by who's had the worse upbringing and as we the hearing audience use other minority's as the underdog. hearing oke about those who oppress them. I see exactly why it is appealing .both are funny!

[desbn]

skeen

[findapartmentnow]

I know this is a "take off" on Monty Python and I'm not going to comment on that, other than it doesn't seem all that funny. HOWEVER...I am utterly fascinated by their signing. Lovely, , graceful, eloquent - even if one doesn't know what they are saying, one understands that this is 4 men arguing (gently) about something! Really very poetic & it gives one more understanding into the world of the deaf; that we, the hearing, are cut off from them, just as much as they are from us; to our loss!

[HanSolorulezzz]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!

I'm from germany. Thats a good deaf joke!!!

[TheJackster94]

;)

my parents are deaf so i no what ur talking about

[medusaliveson]

this was interesting. i've never seen a skit in what i'm asuming is BSL (i live in america, so i'm used to ASL) very cool. predictable, but cool none the less.

[pixiejanet1]

ee by gum, seems like they sign with a yorkshire accent, well to me anyroad!

tis funny!

[gustasselli]

10 min?!!!! could be done in 1. and maybe would be so boring...

the idea is funny though

[sard37]

I actually found a pub in London where you could get 4 pints for a tenner...lol

[Alienmonkey15]

Wish I could had a beer with them and keep the storytelling alive all night long!

[beasleyy4]

I pray that you're kidding.

[lngwstx]

Haha I knew it. I knew it was going to be a hearing family. Nothing worse, right? :-)

[Rbattam]

very over done. Taken the humor and killed it.

[Sayjo3]

That story is the equivalent of The Aristocrats. Something creative meant to let someone explore in many directions. It's fun

[kiwi539]

haha funny i understand BSL because 80% of NZSL same sign as BSL

[LombudXa]

at 1:50 --> rofl, i like that face :)

[puplover72]

I like it .. i from american and i do understand what u say ... it good bet! for 10 pound!!!

[marysissy1]

Hi Hi that good video deaf signs .....

[HighAway]

[mel0vey0u]

Haha, I like that video tho'.

Really love to know what's their

signs is kinda not same as ASL a bit.

But I wish i know whole signs what

they said but not bad because i still

understand what they said cause of CC!

Thanks a lot. But I'm enjoy to watching

[ximilixaca]

this is brilliant, whoever made this may they be blessed!

[jacklovethetardis]

This is brill and by my cousin he also has another video called coming out

[vikingwoman73]

I watch it little different sign langauge but cc help me lots.bless cc on it Smile!!

[middleC17]

I know a little asl, enough to have a conversation, anyway, and this was really interesting how some of the signs were so similar to asl. Really enjoyed the film!

[attimodinfinito]

Hi Charlie! I don't know if you remember. I'm Max,one of Italian boys you met in Spain some years ago. How are you? And your brother? I added you on facebook. Congratulations for your film , is really good. I hope we'll can speak again on facebook,we had not forgotten our english friend! :-) . I ask you sorry for my terrible english! Hi, "stella cadente"!

[564alex]

i understand BSL because NZSL family tree with BSL...and that was GOOD 5 star XD

[Zeoinx]

Clellers I agree, Im deaf too and i use ASL, I really proud of them. :D

[dfarmbrough]

Great film, Charlie, really professional and good performances from the four principles. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

[girlycat]

Hahahahaha!

[MEMPHIS901TN]

lol,this is cool

[Clellers]

Wow, I'm so used to ASL, I was really surprised at some of their signing.

[frosty92314]

BSL is nothing like ASL Remember, ASL is based on French sign language. The captions were a God send

[Riceratt]

but almost half of their signs were exactly like asl! I watched this thinking this was ASL, thought it was remedial ASL until friend of mine explained to me this was BSL lol

[luvcjr]

I love the Four Deaf Yorkshiremen, have watched it 50 times by now. I would love to buy the DVD...I want to know how I can order one, please...thanks

[bigfanfrodo]

that was good!

[singingnymph]

I wish I knew what splattered all over someone's face.

[charlieswinbourne]

Ah, that's one of the deleted scenes, you can find out what it is on the DVD...!

[mndswpr]

Great,I'm waiting with bated breath for more!

[grandplans]

I thought this was very good. I laughed out loud at the ending. I am hearing am am learning sign on my own. It's a slow process. This video was very funny!

[FaithAndKarma]

[MumzyTube]

I enjoyed that, wish I was sitting at the table with them.

[tcby31]

XD a good one indeed!

definitely didn't expect that kind of ending...a good twist ;]

[Wandadaxx1]

I like this one. I like the ending. I never thought of the ending. Excellent!!!! More please.

[scottwatson74]

That remind me of Scottish programme "Chewin' the Fat", but deaf actor are more funnier!!!

Well Done to actors for made me laugh

[sylentmesenger]

Sorry, I know I'm gonna get slated for this, but I'm not going to pretend to be bowled over by this just because the actors are deaf. The idea was a good one, but they could have thrown a bit more humour into it all before the punchline. Acting wasn't too bad, but the lack of humour made it boring.

[Snuffymoon]

brilliant! proud of british!

[KimberleyJL]

This is BRILLANT! I love it!!! Great acting!!!

[thogsy]

Hey, this is fab! You guys did a great job.. bet you enjoyd doing it too, I.D im impressed! x

[doytonaj]

[bgmaron8]

so funny , I have to share it to Americans.

[andreatemblett]

that fantastic about deaf men talk each other about their past time it really very funny and good ...can they do more next time i loved it

[Deafdoggy]

Absolutely super! Anything by Charlie Swinbourne is good but with John Smith in it, it is even better. I did enjoy it a lot. Thanks!

[walla266]

i like it soo funnnnny as wonderful pow from mos

[deafhub]

I could see it coming :)

Great film! I shall be showing that one on my site :)

[Terraxos]

Great little film - very funny. I have to ask - how many, if any, of the actors were actually deaf?

[charlieswinbourne]

All four of them are deaf BSL users.

John Smith is a well known deaf comedian in the UK, while Ilan Dwek, Matthew Kirby and Jonathan Reid all have previous acting experience.

[bobcrowell]

I am American living in St. Louis, Missouri; my wife is native of Yorkshire - we find this video truly funny and entertaining. Keep up great works, you 4 deaf actors. I'd like to buy this video on DVD, if possible?

[charlieswinbourne]

At the moment a DVD is not available, but if enough people want one, I can ask the actors and production company and see if everyone agrees - then maybe get some made. Thanks!

[lkhowprettysheis]

LOL That's funny!!! I havent laughed out loud like that in a long time.

[cherrikia]

Haha hearing family.... Ridiculous funny

[donadoo1]
