  • I just had a friend tell me "Where's Bethlehem? I thought Jesus was born in Birmingham."

  • fuck this blastphemous shit

  • @Bsxpk101 The whole idea is taking the piss out of blasphemers, true cockneys are like that

  • Jesus was definatly English

  • FAAACTS! FAACTS! lol

  • I find it ironic that Tony Blair's farther in law played the left wing son in law in this show

  • Alf Garnett a bleeding British legend.....

  • This is so funny! The producers would never get away with it today tho!

  • "England" lol

  • @whakawhakapapa yes we are classic, this of course is one of my favorite shows it's awesome

  • Fuck jesus and hes fucking kind. Religion is for dickheads.

  • @1982rf thats why the world is in a mess cause of people like you.

  • @mrbokke81

    Not really.

  • Comment removed

  • @1982rf Warren Mitchell (Alf Garnett) is an atheist. I do agree religion is bollocks, it causes wars but also does a lot of good..

  • And for our American chums who don't know - Tony Booth is the actor who plays the "blaspheming Scouse-git" (ie. the "Meathead" character) and he is the father of Tony Blair's lawyer wife Cherie.

  • All in the Family was an americanised version of this The Original show....

    all canned laughter,and very over acted, very second rate.

  • Is that Claude Greengrass???

  • @alfiesgirluk yes it is greengrass

  • Comment removed

  • @Thefog666 ...and I thought it was Selwyn Froggitt!

  • @tomcat72uk LOL I had forgetten about Selwyn Froggitt...........'magic our maurice'

  • This cats the English version of Archie. Fucking hilarious.

  • @dirtynuke Literally - this show was the basis for "All in the Family".

  • Comment removed

  • @dirtynuke,Actually he was worse the Archie.

  • The guy is a legend, scriptwriting back then was: ANYTHING goes in the aid of comedy.

    Lets just remember, it's comedy, not one man's fascist rant, comedy with no rules. :)

  • The guy on the settee with the long blond hair ("Shirley bleeding Temple") was actor Tony Booth, father of Cherie Booth - who became Cherie Blair when she married Tony Blair, the former UK Prime Minister!

  • The guy on the settee with the long blond hair ("shirley bleeding Temple") was actor Tony Booth, father of Cherie Booth - who became Cherie Blair when she married Tony Blair, the former UK Prime Minister!

  • I love the running gag throughout all the series that Alf, is in fact half Jewish

  • First him, then Archie Bunker, and now........CARTMAN!!!!!!

  • @spokesy..exactly well put.this was one of the all time classic comedy characters,paved the way for many shows that never held a candle to this.eg archie bunker.Thankyou Warren Mitchell for bringing so much joy to so many.Truely a class act.

  • Old days were the best! I'm Scot's and catholic and laughed my head off they way he joked about us, all good clean fun. Nowdays we can't say anything about each other in fun.

    So sad that times have changed, we can show a person sticking a knife into someone and killing them on tv, but not show someone telling a joke about some culture, creed etc...

    The world is geting sadder every day.

  • Amazing writing.... so ironic..... highlights the very worse traits of brutishness...

    Classical comedy.....

  • comedy pure class comedy, in them days everybody black, white, jew, muslim, we all found it funny, nowadays with all this pc rubbish all we get is crap comedy.

  • Quoting Warren Mitchell on talking about playing Alf… ‘We were taking a break from filming and I was sitting down on a bench. An old man passing by recognised me, turned around and said.. “Well done. It’s good to see someone making fun of coons. Bloody lot”…

    ‘I replied ... I AM not making fun of black people. I am making fun of people like you’.

    Nuff said.

  • @bommmmmmmm ..dont waste you breath m8, it wont make any diffence to the do-gooders on here who complain for the sake of complaining!!!

  • True Story (from London "Time Out" magazine, 1983.

    Bloke once stopped Warren Mitchell in the street, and said to him "'Ere, I like the way you have a go at all them yids and wogs, Alf!".

    Mitchell replied "The only people we have a go at is ignorant bigotted cunts like you."

  • Alf Garnett is a Bigot!!Hes the joke.Thats the joke

  • Oil? How fitting. Ahead of it's time.

  • i love the Americans and foreigners who have commented on this, and dont know of the series oo the context behind it. they just saw "jesus was english" and clicked away. Idiots!

  • @MonaLisaNaked i'm pretty sure its well documented that Americans dont get satire or wit or any kind of subtlety 

  • all in the family better

  • @hottopic50 If you watched a complete episode (and understood the political satire behind some of the jokes in it) then you'd definitely disagree. Anyway, TDUDP must have been better - it was what gave the Americans the idea for AITF :D

  • @AidanLunn who u talking to shut up all in the family is way better than this garbage

  • @hottopic50 I'm talking to you.

    If All in the Family was so much better, then why was it this show that provided the idea for All in the Family? Without Till Death us do Part, there'd be no All in the Family.

    I think Till Death us do Part is a British thing - you really do have to know Britain warts and all to understand the show properly.

  • @AidanLunn To write this off as garbage shows a severe lack of intelligence. America has made some great TV shows, some of the best ever. But often they take British comedy, sanitise it and then deliver watered down to their audience. Take Fawlty Towers for instance. Arguably the greatest comedy shower ever. But the US version was missing the Sibyl character! . Are you seriously suggesting that the US office was better than the UK version? We wouldn't remake and water down 'Friends'.....

  • This is brill!! laughter is the best medicine. I met Sir Alf about 4 years ago, hes still working as far as I know. he came with a couple of young nurses to see a play at a fringe venue i was working at. hes aged quite a bit cos he kept calling me young man LOL.

  • Back in the days when you could laugh without fear of recriminations!!!!!!!!! Great to see this again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @TheLovelyladylover recriminations for what?

  • Hahahahaaa!.But let us not forget, if it were not for Johnny Speight Alf wouldn't've existed (Although he still does, by the f-ing thousands, in my part of S.E.,London..Hahaa!). A great comic actor with a great script....Thanks for the memories, Fages1.

  • this really show how our beloved england is now really fucked up all by polititions

  • Jesus was English....Just like those crazy mormons who would have you believe he was American. Brilliant writing and stunning comic acting.

  • @defpeck if jesus was english, what's his name in the equivalent of english since he's jewish, I don't find it intriguing since you're making fun of God's son, he didn't start any revolutions, he was not into that, that is if you read the bible and it's contents. then you know from the books of john, luke and matthew, that he's not insuiating any thoughts of overthrowing the roman governement at his time

  • @boobotlmz ...I wish this god of yours had bestowed a sense of humour upon you.

  • @boobotlmz ...and also, what the fuck are you talking about? Overthrowing Roman Governments? Revolutions? ...I sincerely hope that the lord on high will grant you with the ability to read...then maybe you can aim for the thumbs and toes that aren't webbed.

  • @defpeck thanks! and I suggest you don't use the f....word either.

  • @boobotlmz ...Which F word? Fuck? Why not? What does it do? I feel sorry for you.

  • llol everywhere is busy at christmas

  • Jesus was English!

  • OMG - I bet the 'politically correct' brigade are having a 'fit' over this vid.

    Funny as hell though - reminds me of my Grandad - another era!!

  • funny even to-day.

  • Speight. What a glorious talent.

  • warren mitchell toke pride in takin the piss out of his jewish faith,im a scouser i take pride in everyone in the country thinkin we are all thieves.PROPOGANDA

  • Nice comedy without people having to swear to try to get a laugh.

  • should have had a knighthood, SIRalf garnett,lol you silly moo.

  • me and u ? ha ha xx till death do us part x

  • WHAT A LEGEND!!!!!

  • this is where Archie Bunker came from.

  • @Kwikkill34 ...yes.

  • wots Greengrass doing there? A long way from the peak district isn't 'e?

  • lovely legs

  • Scouse git v. Lahdan pathetic tory. A classic confrontation, but like England v. Cymru/Wales at rugby in twickers. barking mad it is!

    But the Welsh still teach the english, you know, and those fecking southern Irish, in how to play the beautiful game of rugby. Feck Gary Lineker and his footie nonsense! But England lads, don't be soft ponces in SA, win it!

  • @closertofiftythanyew and don't put up with the shit that you are the new to conquer the boars and SA, to win in SA and to show we love and will help the divergent SA community to try and get along and try to make thungs work.

    We might even have a Nick Dutch PM, you never know, boars!

  • I fucking hate Scousers and their Irish Catholic hypocrisy, and believe me, I have been on the receiving end of Scouse hypocrisy and their bad temper, which seems to be inherrent in them. Never get on the wrong side of a Scouser,and it doesn't take much to rattle them. I've been there.

  • If you type in "Jeranecks" you will see how true this video is.... As the Book of Mormon is for the Americans, so the Jeranecks are for the Brit's.

  • Is this where the American show "All in the family" comes from? I heard it was a british show first

  • great cud not make out like this now. Notice how its neva shown on tv now, probable baned for been racist

  • What makes me laff is England as not Just been for the English from before the Romans come here.

  • The Nick Griffin lover and BNP sucker commenting below must be really thick! This comedy by Mitchell and Speight is meant a satire on racism and bigotry! The programme is taking the piss out of people like you! And you don't even realise it! Bwahahahaha!

  • your ignorance amuses me as do your filthy communist views, you obviously model yourself on the communist scouse git!

  • @AlfredThwaite - Completely agree, it's thanks to idiots like alanjameshale that we can't watch this on TV anymore.

  • @AlfredThwaite But he didn't mean being "racist" he mean't the fact that people were proud and there was no political correctness you thick bastard.

  • Love Alf and the silly moo, reminds me of my Nan and Grandad

  • @alanjameshale idiot. Anyway, why can't we share the world?

  • Shame all this type of stuff nowadays is so called OFFENSIVE which is a LOAD of bollocks, englands so fucking politically correct nowadays.

  • @unrealharry this should be on tv sod it its our country we are entitled to watch what we want in our so called "free country"

  • silly moo = dingbat. My god you can see All In The Family's roots right here, LOL! I love Alf's explanation of the bible...just like Archie's corrupted bible. This is great.

  • i could laugh all day at the words this Grandpa alf garnnet says lol pitty they class it as racist i find nothing racist in it lol

  • "Jesus might have been a bit Jewish on his father's side."

    "Like you"

  • Great show such a pity those left wing lunatics in the World find this so offensive. compared to some of the shows we have to endure today, The UK as gone backwards since the seventies.

  • Alf delivers his "silly moo" trademark. LOLs. Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy. Its just a comedy. Who would have thought at that time that Tony Booth would later become the ex-PM's father-in-law?

  • Why all this arguing? It was satire. Taking a swipe at the type of Englishman who's ignorant,bigotted and racist. And very funny it was too! Only trouble is , the people it was targetting were to bloody stupid to realise they were the butt of the joke!

  • @basil226 why not all the arguing. it's youtube, it seems what people do best here (even tho most of em in my experience don't do it right). I think it's great because it shows how relevent the show still is that so many people are still so sparked by it.

  • all in the family curbstomps this show

  • All in the Family, was actually based on this show, which came before it...

  • i know

  • HEYY ITS DIRTY DIANA!!!!!!!

  • Loooove Una Stubbs

  • what tony blair doesnt realise is the moose in the sandbag doesnt has not in the BBC anyway! They!! isnt on the trial when the island in the years said "open parliment" but!!!!?

  • Not sure what you are saying Giffiki? Our Queen did not put Tony Blair "on trial". We live in a democracy, and under that democracy Tony Blair and Labour won 3 general elections and was Prime Minister for 10 years!

  • Mores the pity

  • Was it Guy Fawkes? He was part of the conspiracy to blow up the Houses of Parliament with barrels full of gunpowder.

  • you knob!

  • When did you post your last mail? It doesn't matter. Tony Booth is a Merseyside bloke and even an Aussie has made comments about father/daughter relationships.

  • Tony Booth whom later became the father-in-law of Tony Blair British ex-prime minister is one of the descendants of John Wilkes Booth whom in 1865assasinated USA President Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theatre, Washington.

  • lol oil

  • Alf looks like Ghandi.

  • you silly moo!

    :)

  • To all those "string-em-up, send-em-back", gun-toting, Daily Mail-reading nutcases who laugh WITH Alf Garnett,

    I'd just like to say that those of us namby-pamby, lentil-eating, Guardian-reading, PC-nanny liberals who laugh AT him don't hate you. We pity you. And laugh at you.

    Not much really changes in 35 years does it?

  • You talk such utter crap!

  • @kisbie We Daily Mail readers pity you deluded minorities. If the Guardian had any good ideas or views, it wouldn't need propping up by leftie loony councils advertising non-jobs! If any lefty paper gets a decent circulation, then perhaps they would have something to add, but you can't argue with over 20% of the population (that we know about) spending their money every day on papers such as The Sun and The Daily Mail, and around 5% spending it on The Mirror and The Guardian! Democracy rules

  • @vazon69

    The Guardian's online site is the most-read news site of any UK media. And has won the most international web awards for news service.

    But it does lag in the Latest Cancer-cause/Mortgage-rate/Imm­igrants-outrage/Teenage music-drug-sex-clothes scare/paedophiles-and-YOUR-kid­s-FACTS/fat slebs/skinny slebs/US-reality-show-sleb no-Brit-gives-a-shit-about/soa­ps-gossip/whining-NIMBY sectors of the global information and news provision market segments. But the Mail provides these essentials.

  • my god its like alfs house,it started with unas legs and its ended up with the whole world and every weird bastard puttin his oar in ITS ONLY A FUCKIN TV SHOW

  • Una Stubbs, who played he daughter, was a fantastic looking bird. Nice legs too. Always liked her in mini-dresses.

  • Una Stubbs was a fine dancer too.... remeber Dairy Box Chocs in the New White Box?

  • Remember she ended up on charades show with Lionel Blair, I can't remember the name.

  • 'Give Us A Clue'

  • Una Stubbs

  • Alf was played by a Jew and randy scouse git Mike was played by the man whom later became the father-in-law of a politically-correct ex-prime minister of the UK.

  • blair?

  • Yep!!! You're right. His wife Cherie is the daughter of Anthony Booth (aka Mike) whom gained notoriety for his boozing and womanising antics. Alf (Warren Mitchell) once jokingly commented in more recent times that he is the prime minister's grandfather-in-law.

  • Blair wasn't politically correct per se. The PC crap was part of the 1984-style social engineering that was foisted upon Britain under New Labour, and supported by the treacherous Left.

  • Perhaps the press were wrong to regard him as poitically-correct.

  • Blair was, and still is, an obedient servant of the Illuminate, together with slimy Mandelson, Brown and the rest of the government and Tory Opposition front bench. They are turning the kids into badly educated, cowardly wimps, and engineering British society into a pack of empty headed, celebrity and sex obsessed morons.

  • good point

  • *You silly moo" !!

  • For God's sake you prat can't you see its a bloody joke?

    Hear the laughter in the background?

    ITS A COMEDY!!!

    It is not meant to be taken seriously

  • How can you say that Yahveh is the ineffable name (when you just said it) and then you spell god as G'd..

    You are comedy gold!

  • ndgermanrussian - You bloody liar. Jesus Christ was English, and he was related to Queen Boudicca's Jewish uncle.

  • 1:24 "alf. why bethliham?"

    "bethliham is in the midle east isnt it"

    "so?"

    ( taps his nose, U know wat i mean ) "OIL!"

    "oil?"

    "yes, u cant run a world without oil"

  • MINT

  • great comedy pity the world has to watch what it says now

  • only cos we let it...Alf was brilliant, he made millions of us laugh our tits off for years and years .and how many knew there was also a film made too... stuff political correctness ..lets keep on laughing as long and loudly as we can....

  • i think there was about 4 films made

  • 4 films? News to me ....was only recently that I found the film I thought to be the only one made ....political correctness has gone mad when it becomes wrong to laugh at ignorance...Alf rooles...

  • @unviciouscircle There were two films made actually. The second is very hard to get as it hasn't been officially released on either VHS or DVD yet.

  • It`s all yar bluddy coons init?

  • reminds me of my grandad

  • I must say something, CHANNELOMD. Your grammar sucks about as much ass as my grandma's memory foam seats in their minivan. So don't be saying "Considering your standards of grammer- " xD now you got me spelling like I'm stupid!

  • Is that a Thunderbird hat?

  • maybe alfs hat is as close to the west ham colours and the scouse git has the red one for liverpool, just a thought !

  • People take shows like this and Americanize it for it to become All in the Family.

  • every wheres crowdwd at xmas fucking class

  • Has anyone else heard that Til Death Us Do Part is ,allegedly the inspiration for the Monkees hit single Alternate title- it does fit with the lyrics.

  • It was called Randy Scouse Git in the US, and apparently the songwriter was given the inspiration from the title from an episode of Til Death Do Us Part. The record company forced the change to Alternate Title, apparently, out of delicacy

  • Absolute Classic SOD THE POLITICALLY CORRECT LEFT WING MILITANT GAYS WHO ARE DESTROYING OUR CULTURE AND ENJOYMENT IN FAVOUR OF THEIR OWN HIDDEN AGENDAS

  • its exactly the type of fashists pigs the actor warren mitchell is taking the piss out of, hes a commited socialist in real life, sad bunch of right wing pigs
