Omid Djalili - Pride and Racial Prejudice - PART 1

[NanaMchedlidze]

I love this but I need help to understand some details please :)

what does regular mean in this context and

ok, I understand the contemporary slang meaning of "fanny" but "fanny" as a daughter in those days or the spelling is different?

[SilverXio]

I'm Iranian and I fucking LOVE him. To hell with 'he's making fun of his own people'. If we're all going to be so bitter, no wonder there's so many lame accusations of racism between countries.

The point of his comedy IS stereotype. That's what makes it funny, dammit!

[CyrusReborn]

A sell out Iranian making fun of our noble history for the amusement of britanians? disgusting. Fuck Islam and Fuck britania for ruining Iran.

[guztaw04]

Eyh! In my country most women thanks me for doing that!

[AntiGravityLazer]

Weather...LOL !!

[motosana1]

[makpak]

i just dont find him funny.

i aint being rude. i try to watch him as much as i can and everytime he fails to make me laugh.

not even a gigle, smirk or anyfing. the guy just doesnt do it for me. ill give him another try another day.

ps

that fanny daughter is fuckin hot.

[PersianPianist12]

I agree it's insulting. how could he poke fun at himself and his own people? it's funny alright. but in a bitter way.

[mamwyje]

@PersianPianist12

he doesnt make fun of himself or his people, but rather stiff, rather formal and covertly racist british.

His jokes are like a mirror of society, showing real relationship between immigrants and brits by pushing the example to extreme, this time puting today's situation into 19th century context.

[theshcmex]

its the actual lady from pride and prejudice -- legit

[suedonum]

@theshcmex What Jane Austen? ;)

[theshcmex]

@suedonum haha, but the mother is in the bbc version

[shabnamh]

Very funny :)

[athathoth01]

[MrDashoot]

Im proud of being an iranian

[PersoAryanism]

This is insulting.

[davisgreen2020]

Shame the story really was not more like this ! I would have been more interested in reading Jane Austen´s orginal book at school ! The investigation of racial views of the time.. Very funny clip !!

[kittleboy]

LOVE YOU OMIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[EireGoon]

Who's the actress playing the daughter? I've seen her somewhere but I can't place her!

[coruscantplanet]

@EireGoon She is in Hot Fuzz, the girl who gets killed I think.

[misfittastic]

@EireGoon she plays the ditsy chick in skins series one and two

[gypsygirlish]

[arianna19742000]

Alison Steadman, what a pleasant surprise to see her in this short story. I couldn't understand all the jokes, but I loved  the dance. Very entertaining.

[10400274]

[User4101]

[nana0knut]

it was funny but his accent was arabic, not persian!

[alixixi]

LOL awesome! as a persian didn't appreciate the reference to chicken shwarma ... etc - but it was brilliant

[marabestani]

His accent is Arabic, not Persian. Isn't Omid originally Iranian?

[uncoolbobby]

I don't think if you're persian, as persians have class.

[AlbanZap]

I don't think you make speakings of English good?

And about Persians having class...well, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a fine example of that.

[FatGammonCurtains]

haha owned

[max34be]

oh so u judge a race with one person??

[DimbagFanRIP]

Mahmoud Ahamadinejad is a washed up muslim extremist

that is why iran is so poor

he can't move on from old prejudices and do deals with the west

that is why iran isn't like Japan in terms of technology

[aferow]

@DimbagFanRIP

what a mug..iranians arnt extemists.. they wuddnt mind doing buisness with the americanst but they have a lot of influence in middle east..so they haev to think about other interests other than americans and lets face it.. japan gets used by americans .. and if iran did end up doing business with americans.. yanks being yanks would bleed them dry at the same time making them rich... at the same time putting them in debt... capitalism is a wonder in the small print..lol
