Grumpy Old Men-The Nanny State pt1

[johnpetermalcolm]

I once had a problem with my pros(r)tate gland, and went to a hospital to have a camera inserted into "my old chap". My costume for this production was one of those back-to-front nightshirts. During the shoot, an old bag of a nurse was watching the insertion of the camera with great interest (I hoped that she was above clocking my packet). After the shoot; as I went to leave the set, the said stinker complained that my arse was showing through the gap in the nightshirt. Not an arse woman then?

[SnappyPenguins]

This has to be one of the most amusing programmes I have ever seen on television. Jeremy Clarkson can be an absolute twat, but he's bloody funny in this! XD

[jowbowcow]

@SnappyPenguins Man you live in the UK I feel sorry for you. I was there in 95 and I dont recall the cameras but thats bullshit.

You are a grown man or grown woman, you dont need a nanny to take care of you!

[GrumpyOldGeyser]

I love this programme, which is not surprising since I've been a Grumpy Old geyser myself since I was ten!

[LondonPride25]

Do you think you could upload the rest of these, if you get the chance? Someone called stumblebum uploaded the whole series but he/she managed to completely wank the audio sync on every single video.

[MattySadler]

god how i used to love when this was on

[police878]

I think those born after the year 2000, have no sense because they have been not experianced true grit

By the way I fucking hate those you who speak text, e.g lol,cba etc. hope you all hear how ridiculous you sound.

LONG LIVE JEREMY CLARKSON A DYING BREED OF REAL MEN

[talibe801]

omg,these guys are amazing...i wish i had this episods in my country.

[jasiekel86]

I'm 24 and I agree with them, I hate being told I can't do this and I can't do that, if someone tells me not to do shit, I'll go ahead and do it!

[vampsor]

i love this show and i agree with waht they say and iam only 16!!

[scarabmasta]

Rick Wakeman- I examine myself as much as I possibly can, because at my age its really hard to find other people to do it for you. Fucking hillarious!

[jimmyjimjim4567]

im 19 and as far as i can tell im well on my way to becoming a grumpy old man

[Se1ander]

Thank fuck!!

For Grumpy people....

[KarujaSipelgas]

These people are paranoid.

[codownni]

This episode is dedicated to Labour.

[datingfree1a1]

Great Short Clip

[Akibatai00]

The nanny state is run by the health nazis.

[tiddlywinks98712]

where the hell is the nanny state from anyway???, Liberals and Socialists hate it, as well as tories hating it...NO ONE LIKES IT! people can do whatever the fuck they like as long as it doesnt harm anyone else. I don't need some out of touch government snob telling me 'oooh cannabis might harm you'. I DO NOT GIIIIVVEE A SHIIIITTT MR GOVERNMENT MAN

[herefordmsv]

Rick Wakeman - I get up in the morning now and wait for the phone to ring from some government office to tell me when I can have my first shit.

[EnigmaDrath]

..... Does Rory have a statue of himself out in his garden??

[alex471996]

YE GO GRUMMPIES!! why don't we have interesting people in politics.

[LieABeautifulLife]

"it'd be like back at school"

Me: ?... ohh... ewww.. hahahahahaha

[CriesCyanide]

The level of this in the United States is discusting and judging from this it is just as bad in the UK. Is there anyplace in the world where I can be free from it? Maybe I can go live in the jungle :) I can smoke all day long where I want and do anything else I want for that matter but there is probably a law there too saying "Conform, Be like us, Be a part of the normal self rightous OR ELSE" I want the 80"s back :(

[Cataclysm31]

@CriesCyanide if you find that place, let me know!

[JTANKDAMVP]

LOL. "IM BUGGERED IF IM STICKING MY HAND UP MY ASS". DEEZ GUYZ R LEDGENDS

[verbatim945]

Tony Hawks - lol

[pimpb0tt]

Grumpy is right. They may have a point about constant surveillance, but really they are whining about PSAs... good idea to do a self-exam once in a while? It's just a suggestion from the public health department. Nobody's making you do anything.

[Lionstar16]

Call me crazy, but I think there should be a 'Grumpy Young Men/Women' TV series as a follow-up for Grumpy Old Men/Women. It could be made up of members of the public like us, who grew up in the 80s or 90s and are so angry at the way of society is going and how we wish things would go back to the way they were when we were children. Does anyone agree with me?

[rennybai]

Jeremy looks so adorable at 7:44 :D He's too mischievous to hate.

[vidviewer401]

Man... it seems like a lot of Grumpy old men love to complain, don't they?

[TheodorBjork]

Jeezus, these guys are grumpy, the show should have been Grumpy old...NEVERMIND

[pilgrim069]

the other problem BAW312, is uneducated morons thinking they are clever just because they get all agressive and swear on utube.

predictably pathetic.

[westha1233]

love this programme, especially seeing rich celebrities pissed off about stuff!!!!

[MannyFandango]

Dear Mr.Clarkson,

Please please please do NOT examine your testicles. Ever!

Please.

=)

[RatkoUSA]

"...banging on the door telling you that you have a fag in there..." LMAO

Good stuff, watch and learn from the UKers, kiddies, because we in the USA are going to be there tomorrow.

[kitty3309]

Oh come on! Men are always fiddling with their balls!  XD

[kirstyasher2]

hahaha Clarkson "shall i go have a meat pie and explode at 58" lol he's a right twat but damnit he is funny!

[Natovr10]

@MrJanesaddiction Totally agree. Me sitting on my bed working on my laptop is probably breaking 10 health and safety laws that has nothing to do with anything within the confines of my room :P

[Natovr10]

When you're from another country, it's so easy to ignore all this stuff the "advisors" for the public tells you in the UK... Fuck the state, mother knows best.

[AlsatiaZevo]

I agree with this programme most of the time, but this one is wrong! Being on camera doesn't harm anyone, in fact it can actually be helpful [the whole reason they are there], the health warnings are to increase your lifespan and the state imposed regulations are liked by the people they were imposed for [I don't want some fat bastard sitting next to me in the restaurant smoking and shouting about the slow service!]

So shut up, it IS for your own good!!!

[mhoverthere]

@AlsatiaZevo

'Being on camera doesn't harm anyone'

Not sure about anyone else but I still value my privacy.

'the health warnings are to increase your lifespan'

The length of my lifespan is for me alone to decide.

'the state imposed regulations are liked by the people they were imposed for'

Replace 'for' with 'by'.

[justnotcricket]

newspapers printing BS; thats the state apparently. the nhs giving really tedious advice and thats all it is advice, is interfering. apparently. yet BS health-and-safety 'laws'and cctv only get a passing mention?????

[twopintsdave]

'I get up in the morning now and wait for the phone to go from some Government office telling me when I can have my first shit' LMFAO love that!!

[tomthefunky]

You Brits brought this on yourselves beginning right after WW2. The American right (whom you despise) has been screaming about the creeping state for decades. You can laugh at Sarah Palin and those redneck American simpletons all you want, but it's precisely those people that got the message centuries ago, while you supposedly smarter than thou Brits are just getting the message now. Who are the real dummies here?

[EvilgidgitReturns]

@tomthefunky I agree with you, but somehow you voted an idiot into your presidency for eight years. I wonder if the votes were rigged, but then again, at least you voted for your leader.

[tomthefunky]

@EvilgidgitReturns: Obviously you don't know much about American history because if you did, you'd know we vote for idiots all the time. Our current idiot-in-chief happens to be very popular in your country, so I suppose you're idiots as well, no?

Anyway, P.J O'Rourke, an American satirist, once said: Giving money and power to politicians is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.

[EvilgidgitReturns]

@tomthefunky Now need to give whisky and car keys to teenage boys, they mostly steal them over here.

[darkwrld]

@tomthefunky Wow.. Dumb? Yeah I agree you are.. You still think England and America are against each other. xD Go cruel out from under your rock k?

[rossatkins1]

us brits must be da best moaners in the world

mainly cos we dnt care about sayin wat we fink

well i say that but if ur in power u av 2 keep ur gob shut haha

[XHollectro4NoelyX]

i'm female and i actually prefer and agree more with grumpy old men to grumpy old women haha

[norristerse]

@XHollectro4NoelyX

i agree. the problem was, the women they interviewed didn't have the knack of complaining and being funny about it.

[EmmaDivaOfficial]

@XHollectro4NoelyX I prefer and agree with what the men say, too, hehe

[clarkopl]

freedom is better than safety

[sofaguard]

arthur smith is fucking great

clarkson......cunt

[rossatkins1]

haha good 1

but sadly

clarkson is the best person

i think hes amazing cos hes not afraid 2 say wat he thinks

[JTANKDAMVP]

lol.

[ryanhitmanfury]

My uncle always said the Beeb should produce a show for me, "Grumpy Young Man". lmao.

[Butteryjam]

They do its called grouchy young men :)

[ryanhitmanfury]

Really? I didn't Know that. Thanks!

[theworldisyettobe]

im 17 and agree with everything they say on this show. but you know im british and we have an obligation to moan about everything.

[EvilgidgitReturns]

Geoffrey Palmer's narration adds to this show's hilarity.

[Lyarellen]

I'm only 15 and I love it, lol

it's hilarious e.o

dont know if its a good thing that i find it so funny, but complaining about the world = lmao XD

[OllieKay27]

go on

[0bs3n3]

Jeremy Clarkson is such a champ! Just love him!

[dollydot123]

Rick Wakeman: "I'm buggered if I'm going to put my finger up my own bottom." I laughed out loud at that one! :D

[015510378]

I wish they made more episodes and show them more often, it's never on! Love it, and I'm ony 17 haha.

[one5643]

If you've got Sky it's on Comedy Central pretty much all the time, mate :) Have a look on there later on at night you'll find it.

[0bs3n3]

Same haha

[ctf117]

[fenwick101e]

@015510378 im 20 and its the funniest thing ive seen on telly i think the youger generation are as sick of the time we live in already aswell .....................one thing the young men and grumpy old men have in common !!

[TheZenPerspective]

@015510378 Same here ha.

[samosammo123]

@015510378

lol i still love at and im 13!

[WHATPEOPLEREALLYTHIN]

HILARIOUS I LOVE THIS

[MrBooojangles]

Jeremy Clarkson is Postman Pat without his uniform.

[Matt1yu]

I love how even the narrator is funny on this. ^_^ Dunno how I didn't discover this sooner. :D

[33hegemon]

Jeremy Clarkson is more boring than grumpy.

[xEmoEarth]

Jeremy Clarkson is hilarious, mainly because he doesn't care what people think and makes people like you moan. :P

[petecockcroft]

Videocameras in swimming pools???

Dirty sod!! "I only put my finger up my bum when I've lost my keys"  Priceless!!

[Jellyfish124]

Who is Nigel WIlliams? :D

[alexroxhissox]

is that bill bryson i spy?

[SPAG22]

It is.

[alexroxhissox]

LOL hes a bloody genius, notes from a big country is the best book EVER

[SPAG22]

He does rock.

[rbrooks2007]

And he has a position on one of London Borough's Councils, Merton I think. A great man!

[kerena00x]

i lovee Jeremy Clarkson sooo much!

[sarisa235]

yeh but its tru though, i dont want to be told how to do stuff

[filmdirector8]

classic!

[beaverliqour]

In the States now we got a Nancy State .

[musiccritick101]

Is it me or does Rory McGrath have a statue of himself in his garden.

[BeatleFanVD]

Rory McGrath is THE most unfunny bloke... trying to be funny... does not even seem to complain just make poxy unfunny cracks?!?!

[33hegemon]

i know. he's like Jack Dee (another contemptible "comedian") in the way he tries too hard to be funny. i hate it when comedians presume that their own jokes and kookiness are amusing when, in fact, they are not.

[Hostile]

It's all about individuality, we as individuals are dangerous to a state which operates on collectivism. It's all well and fun to complain but god forbid that anybody should try and undo the damage; how many of these talking heads spouting individual liberty would support legalising all drugs? It'd cut down on crime, create tax revenue and destroy the drugs culture which ruins kids... but no, that's a little too much individualism for them. Me, grumpy? Nah, I'm fucking furious.

[mementoman]

I say Jeremy Clarkson for Prime minister...hed soon sort the traffic problems out and get rid of the forgein fucks and blow up the channel tunnel to stop the scummy french and other NON speaking cunts who only come here for our NHS and benefits system.

[conor30000]

do u like being scum?

[mementoman]

And the old chestnut of "IN MY DAY YOU DIDNT NEED TO LOCK THE DOOR AND NOTHING WOULD BE STOLEN" yeah thats coz back then there fuck all to steal thats bloody why?...a shitty black and white tv and a radio...now we have thousands of gadgets and they only moan about that coz they dont have the first fucking clue how to work and use them...only thing i did agree on one episode was the annoyance of going to the cinema..i hate it aswell i dont go anymore i just wait till the dvd comes out..lol.peace.

[mementoman]

Yeah funny how these old gits moan and complain about teens taking drug's????....what the fuck were the sixties about then??....having unpretected sex with as many people as they can and taking fucking LSD and smoking weed AND not working and just walking about saying "peace and love" and they moan about teens??...its the same fucking thing the miserable cunts..only jealous coz they dont have long left and they are fat and over the hill.

[MazeMurdersOfHeaven]

Bicycle helmets really are the most ridicilous things.Those can kill you.I think i´ve to move to Africa or Asia not be pampered.

[ColdChicago]

geezers to the left

geezers to the right

geezers whining while dining

geezers who can't get it right

geezers who have their feet on the pound

and many of them will soon not be around

geezers who've had it too good

[GeorgesBarras]

It's like watching televised Daily Mail.

[Hostile]

I think the Daily Mail channels a lot of anger and distrust towards the state in order to meet that market which this show clearly pampers too, the problem is it drags along all the celebrity culture bullshit and unfounded xenophobia which this show also mocks. So it's basically the good bits of the Daily Mail put into perspective.

[BeatleFanVD]

LOL! Exactly!

[GeorgesBarras]

By which I mean right-wing shite flavoured with Thatcherist balls. I read The Nail, and it is pure comedy - sorry anyone who is on the side of tradition; really.

[mellielli]

Thank you so much for uploading these, last time I checked (months and months ago) I couldn't find any Grumpy old men at all which made me very grumpy indeed;)

[WastedJimb0]

I totally agree with them, the world is anoying almost as anoying as listening to a bunch of ppl moaning about a world 'they' created. Thanks a fucking bunch guys. Now we have to clean your shit up (how ironic).

[mrshnitburg]

I totally agree with everything mentioned in this video and im only 17. I hate the way our country is these days, fuck the nanny state!!!

[14hcap]

your fuckin right ..ADHD whats that about.give the little pricks a slap..sorted me out,

[BAW312]

The UK is too politically correct. That's the fucking problem.

[Steveoqotsa]

The UK is run by fucking Labour & that clueless cunt Gordon Brown,that's the fucking problem!!

[ThreeWordsFirstWord]

@Steveoqotsa pratt

[EddieTheFishReturns]

@Steveoqotsa: Anythoughts on the new government? Good, bad, same old?

[Steveoqotsa]

@EddieTheFishReturns The trouble is their hand's are tied thanks to Labour's reckless spending.They have no choice but to make cuts so in that respect Labour have played a blinder to the naive voter "same old tories,the nasty party unlike us who spend money"...money they didn't have....

There are some things i've liked & some i'm not so keen on....aircraft carriers with no aircraft seems a bit extreme but what do i know.....better the tories than Labour any day of the week

[EddieTheFishReturns]

@Steveoqotsa: Well, when I was studying British politics in the 19th Century, I was quite surprised to see accounts of unpopular parties f*****g up the country on purpose to make a horrendous mess for the next party to clean up. Some things that MPs get away with here would mean execution where I come from. Some of them are just filthy rats.

[Steveoqotsa]

@EddieTheFishReturns You've hit the nail on the head,that's exactly what they've done.In my opinion Labour attempted a kind of social engineering by bloating the public sector with 1000's of non jobs & the mass immigration in an attempt to garner cast iron votes....trouble was they were so bloody awful in government they even managed to cock that up.Everytime Labour is in power they take over a strong economy,spend like crazy,go broke & leave the country in the shit

[doctorrodders]

@Steveoqotsa Good theory. Apart from the fact that we experienced a boom whilst under their lead. It was cocked up at the end, due to the US. The problem is the de-regulation of the banks, which the Torries wanted. Labour stopped the de-regulation going to far, but I think they did muck up by letting them have too much freedom. But regrettably that's the way the world works. Unfortuantly, because of this we are in a trade deficit with China. This is private business' fault, not the government.

[superhaggis666]

@Steveoqotsa

yes those bloody lefties are eating all the money, thats what they're doing, never mind the idealogical cuts ie education.

[PoochMount18]

@BAW312

It's not just the UK, it's the US and everywhere else, it's called the New world order, all countries will eventually be just like the next one.

[ceska31]

@PoochMount18 It feels like a spreading plague . It's happening in France too, very very drepressing...

[kamlondonuk]

Down with the nanny state!! i was given a criminal record for having a minor argument with someone in a petrol station, this country is obessesed with petty crimes!

[ronnie4631]

Fuck the Safety Nazis!!!!!!!!!!!!
