ADVERT : Renault Clio : France vs. Britain

[tdcpm27]

Is it me or does Britain win in every single one?

[20cFilmWannabe]

she got owned at 0:38 lol

[20cFilmWannabe]

the Beatles are more famous than France

[Bluemoon121996]

whats the song?

[Southerdicks]

@Mantua64 I didn't post this someone must be hacking into my account im sorry i don't ever look at these videos

[JDBW]

Good food:France

Good cars:Britain more then france.

But france wins cause she is CUTE!

[Southerdicks]

France... good food.... crap cars !

[Mantua64]

@Southerdicks I believe you're mistaken.. both good cars and good food..

Why do you think France has 3 big car manufacturers and Britain has none? Because they know how to make real cars for real purposes unlike all those random special brands of Britain, but don't compare oranges and apples because Britain has no real export of cars, you ignorant douche..

[Lisha506]

@Mantua64 are you kidding me? im not an expert on cars etc but i can think of an export of cars that britain has just from the top of my head- The Nissan Qashqai, which gets exported everywhere.

[Mantua64]

@Lisha506 No, are you kidding me?

"not an expert on cars" ?

Nissan is a Japanese manufacturer which is partly owned by French manufacturer Renault.

So what does Britain export you say?

[Mantua64]

@Lisha506 To make it even more clear that you are totally mistaken, lets take that specific car "Nissan Qashqai" as an example.

Renault helped Nissan design this car, which clearly makes it even more French than average Japanese cars.

So what are you talking about?!

[Lisha506]

@Mantua64 ok french boy.

[apexdna]

Mama mia, what a woman...

[EroticVultures]

0.44 is boner vision

[HankJwimbleton876]

Charlie Brooker said it best

"Ssssssh-ut the *** up". Really hated this ad.

[chan625]

Isn't Eiffel the German surname btw?

I know the tower's engineer Gustav Eiffel was french born but the way we pronounce 'Eiffel' is German style. French prnounciation is 'ifel'

Perhaps derived from Eiffel mountain range in Germany

[halloire]

What gets me is when she bites her lip at the end.

At that moment she seems to combine cute and hot to make some sort of super-weapon of... cuhoteness

[TazSUFC]

When Annelise Hesme says 'Jean Paul Satre' I feel all fuzzy. :)

[FabuleuxFab88]

I'm french and what the fuck is va va voom

[Stazzo82]

@FabuleuxFab88 Man, is your Language

[FabuleuxFab88]

@Stazzo82 nooooope

[sprucemoose18]

@FabuleuxFab88 The psychotic ramblings of a madman is what it is.

[Henrylampitt]

Also, @mikkaf26 you do know England hasn't had a british monarch since 1066 of which the majority of those monarchs have been, oh yeah French, and german... but then again France seems to realise that we did used to own half of their country and have one against them in wars for a long time... but then again should i mention the entente cordiale, and that Britain and France have one of the strongest diplomatic ties in the world, and at this rate we are much better than england and the USA.

[Atkinson12333]

@Henrylampitt Yes England has had a British monarch since 1066, look up the Tudors and the Stuarts.

[zerker12568901]

@Atkinson12333 England came before Britain, England had a monarch before 1066, the Saxon kings and before that Vikings before that the Roman Emperors and before that various large tribes.

[Atkinson12333]

@zerker12568901 Yh i know, some idiot said that we've never had to British monarch, so i was proving him wrong.

[Henrylampitt]

@Atkinson12333 The Tudors and Stuarts were both French Families, Henry VII Spent most his life in France before becoming King (I'm Studying History at uni, I do know what I'm talking about)

[Atkinson12333]

@Henrylampitt I studied history at uni and to my understanding the Tudors were of welsh origin and the Stewards were of Scottish origin. If you look it up you will find this as well.

[BohemianArcade]

Stop arguing, at least we can agree that we are both better than Belgium

[Henrylampitt]

@BohemianArcade agreed, at least we have a government....

[globin3]

ssssssssshhhh - akespeare ;)

[Pooky1991]

Its cool see two different countries do something this awesome:D

[glazaart]

France has style and is sexier as always ! :)

[djmfowler]

i love her

[manchmal79]

I like england' but do you know that your Country was named by the germans" thats a shame! He". (eng-Land)

[20cFilmWannabe]

@manchmal79 whats wrong with that ?

[Heretic1Critic]

england and britain are not the same thing

[BLUESBROTHERU2]

after careful analysis england has won more wars,won more sporting events (even le mans) and has more nobel prizes france on the other hand has more art,space and is better at judo ......so she might kick him in the nuts!

[TheGiga19]

@BLUESBROTHERU2 But we won the most important wars, waterloo was just a war to stop Bonaparte but all the wars before made France as the biggest EU country ! England is really smaller !

[idricool]

@TheGiga19 The only reason Britain was safe is because you guys live on an Island. Not everyone has that privilege.

[BackInAGiffy]

@idricool lets be honest over 2 billion people across the globe just watched our country in all its glory who gives a shit about France

[mikkaf26]

@BackInAGiffy and so....? It was only one day! now anybody give a shit about your "glorious" country

[BackInAGiffy]

@mikkaf26 yeah one day in which 2 billion (1/3 of the world which coincidently the amount of the planet we used to rule lol) people watched. Anybody give a shit about your country no last i heard you were banning burkas oooo how thrilling LMFAO

[BLUESBROTHERU2]

after careful analysis england has won more wars,more sporting events (even le mans) and has more nobel prizes france on the other hand has her!

[Zenkchi99]

Fuck me. An advert about Britian vs France and the yanks STILL have to get their 2 cents into it. Can't get away from them!

[globin3]

[ManuenFrance]

[mwillis1000]

[ImaginedWriter]

[1classified1]

[unreal030]

british food = gutter slime

[20cFilmWannabe]

@unreal030 french food = snail slime

owned

[intheTea04]

Shakespeare fucking rules!!!!

[weatherallc05]

@lonelykatana nah i think they are equal. inventions are great no matter what they are, and besides i dont think this competition is that serious.

[bluenosemilly]

ive just had the misfortune to hire a brand new Clio, ive been driviing for 35 years and this has got to be the biggest piece of crap ive ever sat in. its dreadfull. as dull as dishwater.

[RadDreamer1]

Did that Brit just say he invented the jet engine? Typical Brit taking credit for a German invention.

[weatherallc05]

@RadDreamer1 yeah germans defo invented the jet engine. germans get no credit

[ljdavies1987]

@weatherallc05 actually the british invented the jet engine in the early 30s, the germans where just the first to fit it to a plane, the RAF was spending all its money on spitfires at the time.

[Lloydy2lloydy]

@weatherallc05 incorrect Sir Frank Whittle invited the first jet engine, the germans just advandanced it

[spaceghost1313]

@RadDreamer1

No. Germans invented the jet plane in WW2, Sir Frank Whittle invented the first operational turbo jet engine in 1930. Thats back in the days when biritain actually built things

[CricketWocky]

Did anybody else think that America was just going to bust in and troll them both?

FUCK YOU BOTH, AMERICA INVENTED EVERYTHING WOOOO

Also, Parisians are kind of a bunch of dicks. Not France as a whole, just Paris.

[WayneCarrJR]

@CricketWocky America is busy building a mosque at ground zero where Islam pwned the fuck out of them. So many Americans died that day. HAHAHA. Love it.

[D0MINICAN01992]

.....whats the point of posting something stupid like that? you do realize fathers and mothers died. I understand you may not appreciate my country, but at least have respect for the innocent civilians who died that day. I respect the Islamic religion and culture, because having a good heart means having an understanding for people, even if it is your enemy. I have been to several countries and seen things, but I have to say I am damn proud to be an American.

[ilias2oo6]

@D0MINICAN01992 America wouldnt be a country if it wasnt for France,France saved america from britain

[D0MINICAN01992]

@ilias2oo6 well i know that....I know my own history. thanks? i was commenting on WayneCarrJR's wanna-be terrorist post about how he thought 9-11 was a great day. And its just fucked up how people can be so stupid and messed up to do something like that.

[ilias2oo6]

@D0MINICAN01992 ignore those trolls they're butthurt because every society rejects them

[MikeyNiv]

the best part about the advert is her

[barbarash]

Give us some French food and style, English music and humour and you got yourself a PARTY!

[eaglemihnea]

i just cant get over how much chemestry they've got

[eaglemihnea]

there are not enough comments about how hot the girl is, shes hotter then french toast, french fries and french manicure but not then the french kiss

[weatherallc05]

@eaglemihnea i wold french kiss her happily

[alrdd]

A car advert has managed to bring people to insulting each other's heritage, nationality, beliefs and their own intelligence. Pathetic. Both France and Britain are great places, leave it at that.

And that girl is fine ;-)

[weatherallc05]

@alrdd yeah i know. its a friendly advert, which outlines achievements, not fucking rivalries!! some people are just too patriotic. the french invented many things, and we need to respect them for it . they do the same for us

[bluebellnutter]

The ending would have been better if they'd said something like...

"The most romantic city in the world."

"Orpington...oh bugger."

[bonnet92]

france all the way :P

[adamsisi]

america, britain and france, all family

[doraemon8061]

I would say to Renault that the materials and plastics for asian model Clios are actully from Malaysia :)

[Varyalover]

Britain, recoats,family...REdcoaats....

[myloverisbillmurray]

what are the writers she mentions here, im trying to pin them down phonetically and having no luck!

[pixiniarts]

@myloverisbillmurray

Jules Verne, then Jean-Paul Sartre and finally one of my favourite poets Charles Baudelaire...

There you go mystery solved!

[myloverisbillmurray]

@pixiniarts cheers, i think i might buy that fluer de mal since you recommend it so highly...do u know of any copies that have the english translation and original french? send me the isbn number please, i know i ask too much of you

[pixiniarts]

@myloverisbillmurray No problem! If I was recommending a translated book of Baudelaire, I think the Francis Scarfe translations are one of the best. Baudelaire: The Complete Verse: v. 1 (Paperback) Publisher: Anvil Press Poetry # ISBN-10: 0856461520 # ISBN-13: 978-0856461521 Its about £3 used on Amazon (.uk) You might also like to try Rimbaud collected works, the penguin edition translated by Oliver Bernard: # ISBN-10: 0140420649 # ISBN-13: 978-0140420647 Both books are fr/en.

[NumberDne]

britain and france are both great and i love them both. i see them as being family since 1066. go britain and france , you have both done so mutch for humanity

[Rmg12]

get over yourselves. all countries are fine. get over it and get on with your life

[malismad]

I remember my ex girlfriend being devestated when she found out that this handsome chap was gay.

[anth00000]

what are the names of the actors in this ad? brilliant ad I think.

[littledrummer666]

does anyone know what the music is?

[vengeuse2]

[littledrummer666]

@vengeuse2

[RossHession]

Ahhh.. I has that car :)

[J0NNYB00M]

[bide777]

I love Paris and London !

[newsmaniaingaidai]

well, i prefer both London and Paris...much better than Tokyo!

[Drakeorflero]

I prefer France ! Paris.. French Riviera.. cuisine.. God save the France !

[00JakeR00]

I like my girls to shower and shave so you can keep your French girl.

[TheBritishRebel]

It actually annoys me how the British media portrays the French. It's okay to disrespect them in the media but its not ok to make fun of non-european cultures/countries. France is a beautiful country and Britain would do well to strengthen our relationship with them and the rest of Europe. Instead we're supposed to believe the French dislike us when that actually is not true. It's a shame we cannot show more respect to such a great country/great people.

[MrYerka12]

freeeeeeench caaaaaaar

[kazimann]

France and the UK

Two countries that are both filled with wankers.

[UnleashedKane]

Tre truth is I love both countries. being from the UK I love my country but their are also things about France that I envy.

[zionravescene]

I liked Charlie Brooker's take on this.

"SShhhhhhhhhh....." .... hhhhut the f*ck up.

[ApproachWithCaution]

They should do this with Britain and Germany. It would be so funny.

"2 World Wars and 1 World Cup. Do da, do da!"

"Scheisse!"

[RafaLisbon1986]

France Wins in History;) England Wins Nowadays;) Two Great Countries

[04carrolld]

history? we practicly are the same. nowdays we are practicly the same

[NottinghamForest22]

well done France for producing that woman. the British man used his charm to nail her later on that night ;)

[jadawin10]

LOL! actually the British man in this ads is gay...

[harpdevil]

The actor is plays his is actually gay, so he must be a good actor lol

[theoriginalsband]

does it really matter? i want to find out what the song is (:

[jamegum1]

nina simone - sinnerman

[affectionatepunch]

I wish you children would stop arguing,We should all get together and have a party france can supply the food and the u.k. can supply the music...

[04carrolld]

what about the booze?

[adamsisi]

@affectionatepunch and russia for the drink lol (sorry had to get that in there)

[pemchem]

@affectionatepunch yes!

[spitandfire]

[JOHNSENA666]

[Jaseperry]

[Jaseperry]

Sorry * Wrote

[Idhem75]

What they said at 0.25 seconde please ?

[Southbysouthwest1959]

The hot... air balloon

[Idhem75]

I think french culture is more prestigious than britain (Hugo, Voltaire, Rousseau, Moliere, etccc)

[SweetJo64]

Pff Britain didn't contribute more to Science than France.

[GodSaveTehQueen]

Maxwell, Brunel, Isaac Newton, Alexander Fleming, Alexander Bell, Francis Bacon...

pfff go ahead you cheese-eating surrender monkey, also known as, frenchie.

[SweetJo64]

Science: Pasteur, Ampere, Curie, Branly, Lavoisier, Becquerel, Paré, Fourier, Galois, Lagrange, Lamarck... (3rd rank of Nobel Prize in Physics, 2nd rank for Fields Medals of Mathematics: 9 for France, UK 5, USA 12)

Literature: Victor Hugo, Dumas, Sartre, Rimbaud, Voltaire, Baudelaire, Moliere...

(1st rank Nobel Prize)

War: Clovis, Charlemagne, Joan of Arc, Louis IV, Napoleon

[GodSaveTehQueen]

i haven't heard of them at all. what did they do for science whatsoever?

Nobel Prize always awards bullshit. it's just like the academy awards.

oh and speaking about wars, you lost to everyone, surrendered to us germans since the first days during the ww1 and ww2, Napoleon surrendered to brits because he couldn't force France to fight with them. poor guns, poor army.

France is maybe a love country, but a fucking crap at army and battles.

[SweetJo64]

Napoleon surrendered to the 7th european coalition at Warteloo(however he won 6 of the 7 battles) after 90% of his army died in Russia because of Cold and Starvation. The russian burnt their own capital, very coward way of fighting. Winter saved their asses.

The 5 first coalitions were defeated and England was involved in.

[SweetJo64]

France won the WW1. The german pop was twice bigger than french one at the beginning of century. Then, there were only 70 000 english from the British Corps fighting with us in the first year of war. France stopped the german on its own and outnumbered.

[GodSaveTehQueen]

"France won the WW1. The german pop was twice bigger than french one at the beginning of century. Then, there were only 70 000 english from the British Corps fighting with us in the first year of war. France stopped the german on its own and outnumbered."

with a massive help of the americans, brits, french-canadians etc.

[xxAdelineFcexx]

France surrendered since the first days in WW1 ? Loool. Germany loose ww1 and France won, and the war lasted 4 years

[mastercheff1216]

British man got that bit of pussy later that night :):):):):).

[SuperFamousB]

team france (: from hungary.

[ysadamoto33]

God bestowed the british with a talent of science but no talent of art.

And He gave the french a great talent of art and a little talent of science.

I am a japanese,by the way.

[corgan555]

Clearly the japanese weren't bestowed with a talent for grammar.

I'm kidding.

[ReeneKaray]

Does anyone know the second French author? - I know Verne and Baudelaire but can't get the one between.

[britboyal]

Jean-Paul Sartre

[fluuuuuuuuffy]

Jean Paul Sartre

[gabishmabi]

Coming from someone who was born in france and which french was her first language, but who has lived in england for 12 years and considers it her home, i find this advert quite brilliant and very clever :)

[LolonMatinez]

Esa morra del comercial está buena.

[daniellamaggs]

[britboyal]

i love the suprised noise she makes after "British designers" <3

[direweasal]

its like when you squeeze a guinea pig

[hothitter]

Yes. All of her expressions and little noises are just perfect. They're both great, but if someone doesn't find the right role for this gal and make her a huge international star they're missing the boat.

[bluejaffa]
