[wackydude09]

Is that Tracy Ullman?

[jonnytbirdzback]

Yes it is. This clip is from an incomplete episode that I have on VHS which is only 36 minutes.

[terrificjoker]

me too

[fortunateizzi]

I remember this well, but of course I never knew it was Tracey Ullman... cool!

Her role of Latrine in Men in Tights was almost spot on like this one.

PRINCE JOHN: Such an usual name...Latrine.

LATRINE: My family changed it in the 9th century.

JOHN: You mean, you changed it......*to* Latrine?

LATRINE: Yeh, used to be Shithouse.

Olde Fish!

[Bellassett]

This is so very cute. I believe this was after my Sesame watching days, but I had to save it to my favorites just because I love "My Fair Lady" so much. It's really quite clever!

[Garrettk41]

Professor Piggins. Cleaver. You know, that may actually count as two references in one.

[classicssmfan]

Thanks for saving me trouble!

[GroverKent]

I do believe that's the voice Tracey Ullman used for her character in The Tale of Despereaux.

[GroverKent]

Norks: Breasts

Jelly: Jell-O

Crumpets: English Muffins

Chap (or Mate): Friend ("Mate" in American is like your significant other).

[Bellassett]

Crumpets and English Muffins aren't the same. They are kind of similar, since they are both bread, but they have really different textures and taste sort of different.

[mygirlfriendisback]

(British):old fish old fish nuee fish old fish and chips. (American): I'd never stop speaking British like were in half-American, half-British.

[mygirlfriendisback]

You got that right! Sawing14s, is there a resion why you haven't posted anything for a few months?

[sawing14s]

Because I have a life.

[MarshalGrover]

Heh, couldn't have said it better myself.

[antsamthompson9]

Oh, what a dumb question. I apologize.

[mygirlfriendisback]
