Relax, he wasn't making fun of the British, he was complementing them, calm down.

[George4Ginger]

I opoligise for whateveri may have said in my post. Yes i know my grammor is terrable and i'm trying to improve. Perhaps i had too much cheer and really didn't mean to say and dont knoww hat the hey i said. I have great respect for British...Its the country with natural beauty. Thank you for takeing the time.

[George4Ginger]

I do opologise for the comments made my me. I know my grammor is terrable.

I honeslty never ment. Seriously don't have anything against anyone. It had to have been horrible for alot to say whats been posted by me. I cant find it so must have been deleted. Also may be better theat i didn't. I'm not a horrable person. I have nothing against anyone and dont point fingers. Thank you for taking the time.

[KILLABYTE2010]

Sarcastic piss taking brits, love em... the only country in the world that sees the real picture, then takes the piss out of it... its an evolutionary revolution that i'm more than happy to be a part of... :)

[George4Ginger]

I opologise for my actions and what ever i said. I only can add i had too much cheer and shouldn't have been on the pc. I know my grammor is not equivelent to some. I'm trying to improve and off to horrable start been drinking. I do have great respect for the british. Thank u for taking the time.

[menezes360]

loooooooooooool

[rford78]

A century ago, these melanin challenged Brit monkeys crept and smooth talked they way into countries like India, Africa, Caribbean and parts of Asia. They employed the principal of divided & conquer, raped and plundered the natives of these nations;  robbing them of their wealth, minerals and sovereignty. These thieves then headed back to their country squirreled away all the wealth which was invested into R&D which led to all these so called Brit inventions. Pure criminals, suited+booted.

[scottishlad1987]

it was more than a century ago. glad we did though, we spread our culture, just look at how many ciountries we can go on holidqay to without having to learn a language! anyway, if you have a problem with britain, whay are you living here?

[rford78]

Easy - only to reclaim what's mine, just like the other 50 million immigrants who want a piece of this country.

[scottishlad1987]

to reclaim what's yours? you may have to explain, my feeble british brain doesn't understand that.

[George4Ginger]

Whatever i said i'm sorry. I am sure i had too much cheer and shouldn't have been on here. Further more yes my grammor is bad and am trying to improve. Thank you for taking the time.

[George4Ginger]

I do opologise. I dont remember and was so full of cheer shouldn't have even been on here.I know my grammor is bad and i'm trying to improve. Thank you for takeing the time.

[DullerCorpse]

'Tis okay.

[69waveydavey]

Anyway back to my original aguement. This program is so badly researched it makes me puke but that just reflects everything about this country. Lots of people that should know better in charge of everything, talking a good talk but actually unable to deliver the goods or indeed any goods at all.

[aliwhitwell]

Just read a few of the comments here and am absolutely astounded at the lack of literacy from the people who deem to make comments! I do hope that most are under the age of seven or are immigrants who may have an excuse.

[BlueSkysie]

my grammar is terrible and while however I like to spell properly, i take no effort into everything i type on a comment on youtube.. Dont take it too seriously!

[69waveydavey]

Seven? I teach 16+ and most can't even spell their own name and if they can you can't read what they've written. What's your excuse, oh sorry it's a "typo" TIT!

[Pipweed]

THIS IS SHIT the video dnt even load piece of crap n its probably some gay shit for gay ppl who the hell watches this crap wat is it anyway? fuck u the person who uploaded it shld die and fuck the stupid fuckin avdert u cunts.

[XXTheRealMcCoyXX]

nice story... Just gose to show what you can acheive if you stick at somthing long enoth and have the determination to win!

[infinitydreamzz]

Brits are better than everybody else, they are amazing etc etc but if everybody else disappeared tomorrow then Brits wouldn't be the best because there would be no one else to compare them with. Am I trying to say something here? Maybe I am.

Anyway God bless this country and all other countries.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Its a shame now all the UK is good for is handing out benefits to anyone who wants to come here who then does not work and trys to turn us all into muslims. This was a great country once we had pride and honour and we were an island. which stopped the influx of foreigners flooding our land. When will this country be great again. When will England stop giving money away to scroungers and spend it on things like the NHS , Schools and the roads.

[maidenslayer]

Yes I know you wasn't saying this but seriously you look at some parts of England and it may as well be India.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@maidenslayer Dont worry i am with you on that one.

[69waveydavey]

Don't forget those hundreds of scrounging c*#ts in westminster and who can forget the hundreds of hangers on who are vaguely related to the monarchy. The only way it will ever get sorted out is to put a raving lunatic in charge but the people i have just mentioned will never let it happen so as soon as i sell my house this year i am leaving this joke of a country.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@69waveydavey I would do the same but i have built up a good business here and am dammed if i will be driven out my home land. My father fought in WW2 against the japs in Burmah as we didnt want to be over thrown by them or the Germans. Now everyone else is picking away at our country taking what they want and if we say anything about it, they just play the race card and say we are racist. I cant understand any of it. I voted BNP for a change as they're the only party with balls to stop it.

[69waveydavey]

The problem is our system, when some tossers gets voted in they only see as far as the next election so they don't want to rock the boat too much, so nothing ever really changes. A raving nutter dictator or civil war is the only answer. The problem with a civil war is that we'd have to do risk assessments everytime we picked up a gun or threw a grenade and then put a sign up "Danger guns may cause harm". So i'm just leaving it's easier. me and another 120,000 every year.

[Cracky3000]

@AUTORECOVERYUK who is trying to turn you into a muslim? why dont you like foreigners? british indians are the most economically successful ethnic group and the largest ethnic minority in the UK, they contribute more to the treasury than "native" brits (quotations are needed as celts are the only peoples native to the British isles). Britain has a declining birth rate which will ultimately lead to the state pension either being dramatically reduced or to every1 working to the age of 70.

[Cracky3000]

@Cracky3000 btw they contribute more to the treasury than "native" brits - per capita not nominal

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@Cracky3000 Why dont i like foreigners well lets see Demonstrating over race & equlity Muslims, Protesting & demonstrating when our army returns home Muslims. Having christmas nativity plays stopped in some schools as it may offend Muslims. Setting of bombs in london on 7/7 gues who??.Muslims. Being allowed special rights on religious grounds that us christians dont have in our own country Gues who? Muslims. I could go on & on. Come here if you must but dont change England into a muslim country

[panthrex898]

Shut the fuck up you whining little bitch. We're all human, and we all deserve the right to live whereever the fuck we want.

[allgoonersaregay]

Err, no. The largest ethnic minority group in Britain is the Irish by a country mile!

[69waveydavey]

No need for in depth conversation or intelectual debate, Look all anybody needs to know is that the Great Britain is the bestest country ever, we invented absolutely everything and we're better at anything than anybody n shit.

[Gellis2009]

Britain was the first country to industrialize. This world has alot to thank us for. Now we are like old age pensioners sitting back and watching the world play with everything we created lol

[sij747]

the two most influential empires in the history of the world are the Roman and the British Empires.

The British Empire was the worlds first truly global empire. it was the only empire to have direct influence on every continent, and it used this influence to develop trade networks, with the modern world using this basic principle to develop globalised capitalism. And lets not forget the empires greatest legacy and influence - the English language.

[Cracky3000]

@piepen111 british people are not a race or even an ethnic group. How come your mother gave birth to you?

[tinytina789]

I wish it to be known that I have an enornous knob. Thank you.

[sgtsolo1]

will everyone stop complaining about the british being evil,how the hell would anyone build an empire without stealing land?

[effyleven]

The camera was waving about so much I became nauseous.. (p-u-k-e) It was so fucking unstable I thought a young woman must have filmed it as her first job out of film school. And guess what? According to the credits, a woman DID film it....

errrr.... excuse me.... (p-u-k-e)

[George4Ginger]

Britich wasn't alone in the wars. They never won anything wuith out stealing from the poor to stake there flags. North American indians owned this side of the world. Thats just the thing about the birtish they dont teach how they made the word what it is today. Raping and killing natives..god only knows what other country suffered the same. Birtish wasn't happy till they stole all lands and witht he help from the french. Now lok at the f***ed up the world is and u cant point at the real owners

[1MrTurd]

a really informed comment.......shame things like a formal education seemed to have passed you by

[spartan117recon]

your an idiot learn your history and how to spell,the british did'nt kill the natives in america the americans did,plus how do you think wars are fought?the winner takes all because the loser was weak,if it was not for european influence in africa they would still be living in the stone age,and there are no real owners just who is strong enough to keep the land.

[BKsMassive]

Americans = British Immigrants

Just remeber that ;)

[merton8181]

and German!

[BKsMassive]

mainly British people, but some people from europe :P

[sij747]

and irish and mexicans and japanese and chinese and germans and italians and french and indians and the list continues

Just remember that ;)

[TrevHead10]

Most brits know that the empire did both bad and good but you cant escape the fact that it was britain that kickstarted the modern world with its empire built on trade. Its trade that has given you all your toys to play with including the PC you typed that comment with

And if you must know in north america it was the colonials that were taking native indian lands. One of the main reasons the war of independance broke out is because the british government were telling them to stop.

[zakere1568]

fucking dumbass it was the americans

[merton8181]

That was inevitable!

[merton8181]

The worlds fucked up, get used to it. It was Europeans who fucked up America, French British and Spanish. We left when we realised it was too fucked up to deal with! Now you're there!

[BKsMassive]

ahahahaha! no.

America aka " the world bank " fucked everything up! -.-

[skipskops]

Silly comment lol. Not being funny but for starters you can't spell and for seconds what makes any other country any different? It's called war, without Britain the world wouldn't be what it is today, and you say it's fucked up? What are you looking at? I'm living in a lovely house where my family love me, where I have freedom to do what I want think what I want, and live how I want without being executed. Just like the majority of Europe and the Americas.

Yes, indeed what a fucked up world?

[clothierben]

@George4Ginger m8 you know nothing, your implying that the british payed nothing for there colonies, because nobody died in the wars did they? i wish we had stayed at home as america would have still been like the wild west, africa would all be french, and dipshits like you wouldnt bother giving their pathetic half points. 2 empires made the modern world, the romans and the british, READ A HISTORY BOOK!!!

[Olekander]

I bet theyve got a black guy somewhere in there.

[69waveydavey]

Then every now and again we'll come and give you a good kicking cos we always win any war we partake in and if we do loose we'll just forget to tell anybody. anyway thats how it happened .

[69waveydavey]

Brits who made the modern world..

In the begining there was darkness......

THEN IN 1987 BRITAIN INVENTED THE WORLD! Nobody had had even the slightest idea about anything before then.

We invented all the elements, cats, ice cream, cereal bowls. Before britain there were no people, we had to invent them so we could point at them and go "Ha Ha you are shit becuase we invented everything and we'll call you johnny foreigner now go away, no hang on while we invent abroad then you can live there"

[shinysideup100]

And we had flags >eddie izzard mode

[69waveydavey]

@shinysideup100 Flags are always very important, without them where would we be? Those cars would still be going round and round from 1962, well the british ones would have broken down shortly after starting but the other ones would still be going wondering when to stop.

[rudeboykill]

this is a pile of shit

[effyleven]

It is certainly pretty rotten filming... there is currently a fashion for waving the camera about like a mad thing, and combining it with zooming in and out and super tight framing.... (an example of how NOT to make a film.)

[69waveydavey]

Top gear or this?

This is alright, just should have been called "Lotus winning it's first championship" or something not "formula 1" that is something i think that would be very difficult to do in 22 mins.

As for top gear just three motoring journalists having a laugh. Just wish people wouldn't take everything they say as gospel.

[69waveydavey]

Brits who changed the modern world....

Some of the british just didn't get the point i was trying to make, the end.

[69waveydavey]

I believe I could do research for this program n shit.

[69waveydavey]

Brits who made the modern world...

Britain was shit at boats, in fact they didn't have a navy or anything or stuff and none of them could swim. Then came the 2008Beiging olympics and they won everthing and the navy wos invented n stuff.

[bagy999]

shut up your a piece of shit so stfu

[69waveydavey]

@bagy999 O-o-O-o-O Get her!

[hbar895348]

Are u stupid???

Because of the British Navy, they colonised a very large proportion of the world... How could Britain do that without a Navy???

Pick up a history book before u comment

[ChrisMillett1]

We woulda used the RAF, duh. (Honestly, I'm joking. I'm making a joke at the people that would think that).

[69waveydavey]

@ChrisMillett1 Yes you are 100% correct Richard Branson did invent the aeroplane and therefore the RAF in 1972. Hope fully I will get to travel in one of these new fangled contraptions in order to leave here, hope its a sopwith camel I hear they are cutting edge stuff!!

[ChrisMillett1]

I hope you were just playing along with what I was saying?

[69waveydavey]

@ChrisMillett1 It would seems that only you and me understand the point I'm trying to make.

I am a huge motor racing fan, competitor and motor mechanic and this is one of the most badly researched programs I have watched for a while apart from top gear which i have stopped watching.

[ChrisMillett1]

Too right it is. But it's entertaining for all it's worth.

[69waveydavey]

@hbar895348 I did pick up a history book actually. We won the battle of againcourt Oct 1415. The year Sir Laurence Olivier was born

[clothierben]

@69waveydavey hahahahahaha very good my friend

[MegaDanji]

69waveydavey your an idiot

[69waveydavey]

Brits who made the modern world...

Britain was shit at household appliances then came Dyson and won everything the end

[Ash1955]

Hubert Cecil Booth a British man invented the vacuum cleaner in in 1901and founded The Vacuum Cleaner Company Ltd in London.

[69waveydavey]

@Ash1955 Thanks for that but I think you'll find that the "Vacuum" cleaner was invented way before that. You may be correct about an "Electrically powered domestic vacuum cleaner"

BUT YOU HAVE MISSED MY POINT!

[Ash1955]

The cleaners before Booth's were in fact "sweepers" . Booth made the "modern" vacuum as it still is today in design."Modern" I believe is in the title of this post ;-).

My point was the British invented many things in the modern world.

[69waveydavey]

Brits who made the modern world....

Britain was shit at pop music but along came the beatles and won everything the end.

[69waveydavey]

Brits who made the modern world....

Britain was shit at football but then came along manchester united in the 70's and they won everything, the end

[shotgunjamesgunn89]

I believe you're wrong there! Liverpool won everything in the 70's and 80's! Man U only started winning in the 90's. Get your facts right before you start complaining! Also if its that shit then why dont you just leave.

[bulked]

Are you from Liverpool?

[69waveydavey]

@shotgunjamesgunn89 Thankyou for your well thought out reply. I will be leaving this country very soon, mainly due to the amount of humourless people in this country.

[GeriatricFan1963]

Yeah, and what happened to the last Malaysian driver in Formula 1?

You're right, it's almost racist that they wouldn't accept litespeed, but did accept this strange 1Malaysia bid...It's bound to fail, like Toyota. I'm supporting Wiliams and Barrichello, they're the only ones who understand how F1 should be.

[RicardoRowMoscow]

i don't think lotus is change f1 this time around there is to many clever heads in the sports now for any 1 team to dominate likr thet use to. it will be intereting to see what lotus can achieve now after such a long time out of the sports.

[GeriatricFan1963]

I hope they get somewhere and don't quit like BMW/Toyota/Jaguar did.

All I care about is that the car gets a good colour scheme to be honest! If there isn't British Racing dark green with a yellow stripe down the middle, I'm not going to support Jarno, Heikki, or Gasgoine.

[bagy999]

BMW and Jaguars are some of the best cars in the world (in my opinon) and dark with a yellow stripe down the middle thats shit colers

[UncleGyro]

Hahaha thats at goodwood my dad works there

[CrAsHBaNdIcOoT01]

channel 5. hahaa they know jack shit about any sport

[ninjachimp67]

hamilton sucks

[8Julius8]

if he sucked, he wouldn't be where he is.... when you achieve something in life then you can talk shit about other people, but now... Go fuck a goat!!!

[69waveydavey]

WHO THE F##K RESEARCHES THESE PROGRAMS?

the program should have just been called the lotus 25. Chapman great man but where where Vanwall, Cooper, Moss, Surtees etc etc etc? I am assuming they were illegal imigrants or something.

What happened to the little matter of putting the engine in the back was that not a good idea? Porshe/auto union 1930's, Cooper 50's.

[MrSyrett]

Come on, its channel 5. What do you expect

[69waveydavey]

SORRY! I stand corrected! I thought John Snow was old enough to know better but I suppose he's just taking the work while he still can.

[Sheshant]

Nervewreckingly Ninth!

[bleachost]

Maybe a longer title...tah....

[Isanion]

bleachost! you broke the game...

:'(

[TheCandygod]

enigmatic eigth

what is the point of this?

what is the point of any of you?

[OMFGYOUJEWLOL]

Sodomistic Seventh!

[bambuko100]

Undeniable Sixth!

I won't break this game..

[Fordyization]

Fabulous Fifth!

Could not resist the temptation :)

[RustyBinProductions]

Thankless Thirds!

Don't usually make stupid comments like that, but I couldn't resist!

[shintyfan]

Filthy fourths! :P

I can't stand these comments as well but like ursel had to have go!

[antoireland09]

[apeterfile]

This comment page just lost its virginity XD

[patterson9991]
