Eddie Izzard and Antoine de Caunes in Channel Crossing part 1 of 2

[TheEnelos]

"Je m'appelle Antoine, j'ai 19 ans et mon père possède un gros cochon." Ah là là, I laughed so much !! :DDD

For english speakers, this means " My name is Antoine, I'm 19 years old and my father owns a big pig" ... ;)

Where's part two? Ou est la deuxieme partie ?

[sapicklez]

How come I only seem to understand the silly things that are said in french? :)

[maketradefair1]

this STILL holds up today!

[ashamedz]

"Eddie, I want to ask, when one looks at the sky - does God exist? What do you think about that?"

*french noise*

"Ah, that's a very interesting hypothesis"

[TheFaithArtist]

oMg wish I'd learnt French at school from shows like this, I might be able to actually speak it now.

Some people may remember the fantastic Eurotrash, of which Antoine de Caunes presented alongside the designer Jean Paul Gauthier

Fantastico...

[Rookiewill]

"My name is Eddie.I am 18 years old..."

"My name is Antoine.I am 19 years old"

I could not stop laughing at that, and when Antoine knowingly looks at the camera its al the funnier! :D

I remember watching this at the time, channel 4 always had good language programmes.

"bof" is an old expression from the 80's but still it's a funny emission i like eddie izzard he seems nice

[mocat1]

"... my cat has exploded, my grandmother is on standby." LOL

[slbkitty32]

Bouf!

Ahhhh.... ADC - I always thought of him as being a stereotype, I always thought he was an exaggerated comedy frenchman just for the british, but apparently he's a bit of a comedy legend in france.

[guillaume1306]

@johnnyrsj well he's not really a comedian in France actually but he was the co-presentor of a very famous talk show back in the 90's, 'nulle part ailleurs', and he was impersonating different stereotypes. Now he is into films making and production as far as I know.

[toyamac]

@johnnyrsj Exactly!

[sharplesal]

antoine de caunes- channel 4's stock french stereotype...but that's why he's brilliant! thanks for posting this, it's awesome! :-)

[Pedgerow]

This was brilliant! I gave it 5 stars, then kept trying to give it 5 stars again later in the video.

I remember watching these in french classes a few years ago (in y8). Thanks for the upload.
