[HollyYerawizard]

Elderly Julian Asange, Most Interesting Person In The World and Double Rainbow Scarf...that's us British for you.

[44032]

@HollyYerawizard And Babe Ruth.

[ourtortsystem]

My lord, my lady

Wow, I didn't know they addressed judges that way, I thought they said Your Honor.

Hehehe.

[EoinMLover]

OMG. I love this show, I really, really do. But this video is HILARIOUS. The scarves bit had me laughing in such an ugly and unladylike way. xD

[jlastre]

LMAO...Most Interesting Man in the World 2:00

[ThePhantomPS3boy]

I like how this is racist (In a funny way) toward British and American citizens at the same time.

[lessavit]

Correction to translation:

Knackers are in fact bollocks which are testicles.... unless your using bollocks as a "mild expletive" for "bullshit".

Example usage:

If you think im talking bollocks im gunna chop your knackers off for talking crap all the time.

[CamilleonProductions]

They forgot to add "legged it" to the 'code words'

[Danno0618]

That is just HILARIOUS

[iFlute4life]

A healthy diet of sandwiches and pens lol!

I think i might just watch this for the cute British accents <3

[MinionBooBoo]

This is brilliant! LOL! SO FUNNY!

[jeanneprouvaire]

Whoa! What has Wedge Antilles been found guilty of?! :P

[101Potti]

MARTHA! 0:32!

[roguesniper]

Um... Knackers =/= Pants, Knackers = Testicles. Anyhow... Good show,

[MsKahlitaMichelletv]

"Overseen by men in wigs and furry clothing..." CLASSIC COMEDY!! Seriously though I really want this channel

[dageezerboi]

@MsKahlitaMichelletv thats true though lol

[TogusaM207]

Tea and wigs LMFAO~

[pepperandroses]

I had to double check to see if this was real, and not a joke.

[eve92032]

OMG! Its Martha! I didn't know she was on this show. Totally watching it now!

[Ma010S]

But they should not be arrested in suspection period.After the reasonable period when the police report is prepared and reached to Public Prosecutor ,under the knowledge of the prosecutor, this arrest happens as I know.Or is it different in practical side?

[codyskoff]

It's like our Law & Order, just more British.

[singlouder08]

Martha!

And RDJ's Sherlock's Lestrade...

[lackofoxygen]

Left out that they love to tell mothers they are horrible mums

[angelsgurl]

just started watching this...I'm American and have to listen so carefully to understand everything. The show is good, but you brits look fucking ridiculous with those wigs. And open your mouths wider when you speak. Sheesh..

[Doublecard]

education is a good thing

[wesleyis16]

Why are the only Not Guilty's women?

[rottencat240]

Ha! this is great :D I love L&O UK.

[Becca101P]

Im British.. And I found this hilarious! Those saying it is insulting them can get a life. 

[adminelf]

Why are we copying the yanks? OK with the wigs Why can we only drink CAWFEE walking down the stree!!! Love the show but really can we have Gene Hunt and jack Regan back?

[greergarson]

@adminelf Who is we? Are you one of the producers? If so, I really enjoyed your work. Great show. I think I liked it better than the US version. I have ancestors from England and Ireland. It's like a humidifier and a dehumidifier fighting it out, which I think in the end just makes me all American.

[adminelf]

@greergarson Are you nuts?

[adminelf]

How f*****ing embarrasing!

[wwwBixxTk]

Guuuuilty :D

[kellina84]

this video is fucking awesome! cheers! 

[mrkmoua]

Lol they hate putting things down gently....

[AeraLure]

Double. Rainbow.

[GettnBooted]

that was funny as fook! ty for posting this it cracked me up for the day! I wish it had a british goren and eames but that's what havers and lindley are for yeah? lol ty!! GB

[TheDfdivino]

Wait...at first I thought this was a joke trailer, but this is actually a real spin-off? haha

[StelyDn]

@TheDfdivino Yes, it is... What I found hilarious, is that I understood almost every word...

And I didn't need subtitles...

I watch WAY too much BBC America!

[roguelead72]

@StelyDn I didn't either, I guess all those years of watching Black Adder, The Young Ones and other Britcoms paid off.

[StelyDn]

@roguelead72 I know!

[nathanstan]

Ahhh come on, the Brits know how to entertain. After all, they and the Aussies are masters of acting. This presentation is very funny though and in good taste.

[RizzoR14]

KRICKY

[cjxmc]

Flog donsn't mean sell it means pass on

[justclosing]

@cjxmc

wrong..."flog" has something to do with SM

[manacaster]

lol. Is this a joke?

[BIGBROTHERfan24]

knackers means balls

[BeAtLe2DeBeAt]

Is this an actual advert? ... Oh well. Law and Order is bollocks anyway.

[gdwmontg10]

HILARIOUS!!!

[SVURulez]

This actually made me want to watch the show. With the original L&O gone and the other spinoffs quickly circling the drain, this might be something to hold onto.

[leaguesmanoframsgate]

Why, BBC America? Why did you pick up a crap ITV spinoff?

[MsDeandrea]

love English culture !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[softkitti]

Who does the voiceover?

[deldred]

@softkitti Bradley Darryl "B.D." Wong.

[softkitti]

I have enjoyed British shows for many years. I'm from Indiana and have little trouble understanding their speech. I routinely ask my library to stock British mysteries and shows, they are popular here! This video however, IS very funny.

[bluewiz20films]

Silk is still better...

[epifanny]

thats hilarious....hahaha

[Orangebike666]

2:00 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH the most interesting man in the world. I don't always drink beer, but when I do I savagely beat my wife and kids.

[NiceOne910]

Luv this

[JollyRodders]

What would Americans make out of the old 1970s cop show The Sweeney..?? Still popular here due to re-runs on satellite TV - "Shut it...."

BTW here's a sample watch?v=iFeJAe4f9g0

[ermiretrek]

Am I really the only American (born, raised, and still living in the mid-western state of Indiana) that's ever watched this show and been able to follow every episode just fine? I've never had an issue with the slang, the various accents, or even the differences in terminology between the legal systems (i.e. - barrister = lawyer, GBH = Grievous Bodily Harm = Battery, etc.). I'm just shocked that some people claim to have SUCH difficulty that they can't enjoy the show. And I absolutely love it.

[kellythomasglenda]

Awesome

[PrInCeSsJeAnNeAtTe14]

I saw this on TV yesterday... so if anyone is questioning whether or not it's real, yes. It IS.

[padme69]

this is the most brilliant thing ever

[stargoboom1986]

It's awesome to learn things from the UK! :D I've guessed some of the words when I first watched it.

[03irisiris10]

He says 'They should cut yer knackers off, spray 'em gold, 'n' flog 'em as baubles for £90 a pop'

...so it's obviously meaning your balls! >.<

That put aside, this is still hilarious xD

[RusCan10]

Damn I pressed the wrong button there sorry

This pisses me off. What the hell is wrong with you, ya bloody wankers?!

It's Law and Order in England. And it has Freema Agyeman in it. You also obviously don't know what british means since this show is mainly based in ENGLAND. Get your bloody facts right!

[AMD3FAN]

thats effing hilarious, if that is a real advert...lol

[mrfwest]

is this real?

[Blokecameuptome]

I may be KNACKERED tonight, but I'm hoping that when I play with her KNOCKERS, and move down to her KNICKERS, I can get out my KNACKERS

[deconverts]

@Blokecameuptome Awesome :-)

[youareevenworse]

@Blokecameuptome you'll end up in KNICK if you behave like that

[Chris2myfriends]

That's hilarious.

[dageezerboi]

@saffibaffi I think criminals would disagree..

[QueenMegaera]

Can't. Stop. Laughing.

And here I thought Law & Order wasn't a funny show! ;)

[Zoopk1ng]

errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm, Knackers=ball, not 'pants'

[Someloke8895]

@Zoopk1ng I was thinking the exact same thing

[pubster26]

Shame the yanks never got The Sweeny now that would need Subtitles..... GUV ......

Yanks do think we are like this should have been set in Brum.......

[jdmitchell2]

@pubster26

I'm a yank & I got most of it without the subtitles. What most yanks have problems with is the accent. Can't get past Cockney (or any other). Cheers for making me feel a little smarter.

[alecmuffett]

"double rainbow"? someone's larding on the memes...

[Tails137]

This made my year.

[naemah94]

yooooooo this stuffff is hilariousss

[Bruisedmelon]

this is right frelling funny

[mrs9thwonder]

Im a Canadian living in Britian and I love Law & Order UK. This commercial is hilarious.

[fosterslover]

DOUBLE RAINBOW!

[kbqiscool]

im an american and i can say that we understand some slang, usually the more obvious things like wanker, rubbish, and bloke but there are many things we probably won't get, like i only recently learned that whinging is the same thing as whining

[mac2552u]

LOL btw Knackers are balls not pants!

[spursgalemma]

I love this!! Saw it on the one show last night and had to check out the whole clip!! Shows us "Brits" have a sense of humour and can giggle at our slang and traditions. Tho I do wonder if it were reversed, if the Americans would appreciate the same kind of advert??

[BrokenHalo07]

This is hilarious!

I'm sorry, would anyone like a cup of tea?

[Sheryljanefan]

Thanks for the laughs!

[HyperUserGoesHyperer]

I LOVE THIS HAHA :').

The things is us Brits understand everyone, we understant all types of slang within Britian, I'm Scottish and understand cockney. We also know american and australian slang but americans dont :L ><.

[theLAZYcloud]

I love are stereotype !

[hjkobayashi]

knackers = balls, dude.

[mandalore174]

Probably the best thing about law and order uk is seeing Martha Jones and Apollo in the same show

[poeticjustice1000]

So funny! Well done BBC. And nice to see fellow Brits on here, enjoying the gentle mocking. We really do have the best sense of humour. *Note to Americans - that's humor with a 'u'....English*.

[JorealConners]

This is what the UK thinks of Americans. Well, I'm not really surprised. Though I would challenge them to try and decipher a Bostonian accent any time as payback for insinuating they're special for having a really hard to decipher speech pattern. That or drag them out to Alabama and have them speak to a proprietor of a gas station.

[resulted]

Knackers are not pants!

[johant23]

this is brilliant... lol

[MrLukasDiSparrow]

lol if every cinematic railer would be like that i would go to see all the movies!

[Jill1228]

It's brilliant! Totally hilarious

[03iamhopeless]

DOUBLE RAINBOW :D  2:33

[williambrown007]

WTF!!! WTF!!! WTF!!!

[janszafranski]

Effing brilliant !

[alw41524]

knackers are actually balls.  testicles. Not pants. Just sayin.

[whatthedeuce81]

I've been laughing my arse off for the last 5 minutes! The scarves bit tipped me over the edge!!

[JenAnistonRocks]

so funny!!

[cheapcape]

Law & Order is just a fascist and fake cop show. TV really does suck now.

[bigmetal16]

How come "rubbish" and its translation were shown, but not uttered at all?

[Redthing65]

BRILLIANT. I work for the Crown Prosecution Service, and this is exactly what it is like.*

*May not be 'exactly' what it is like*

[bexy2009]

What that's not what Knackers means idiots.

[jemworld]

oh thank goodness they said that mum = mom, dont think americans could have figured that one out...... /facepalm

[mohamadalikazi]

i am british by nature but was born in the wrong place, no wonder i hate living in america

[LittleBlueBoxFilms]

Since when was Brilliant a British Slang?

[ClifftonBeach]

@LittleBlueBoxFilms since it was

[emptyangel]

@LittleBlueBoxFilms

they use it often, definitely more than americans do

[LittleBlueBoxFilms]

@emptyangel @ClifftonBeach @Marnox well you learn something new everyday eh

[dageezerboi]

@LittleBlueBoxFilms is that how you multi quote? copy the name and add a @ next to it? was never sure about that..

[Marnox]

@LittleBlueBoxFilms since the dawn of time.

[TENNSUMITSUMA]

(O_O) what the fuck....WHAT THE FUCK, BWAH HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAA

[StrandedMonkey]

what the hell did he say at 1:06??? hahahaha

[ellielou1985]

@StrandedMonkey "I always fancied one, but the first mrs. Brooks thought I had enough crap without going looking for it!" :D

[x1simplicity]

Hahaha this cracked me up.

[deconverts]

WRONG: 1:27 "Knackers" is not "Pants". It's "testicles".

[emptyangel]

@deconverts

I think they meant knickers.

[Blokecameuptome]

@deconverts thanks mate, I always wondered what "testicles" means

[justclosing]

@Blokecameuptome and they all come in pairs

[justclosing]

@Blokecameuptome  I bet you thought testicles was something an octopus had

[poppey40]

@deconverts No worries. I just saw it on tv, and they corrected it.

[techfan42]

The funnist promo/trailer for Law and Order UK I have seen. Well done BBC. This is much better than the standard ITV promo. I like the explaination of proper english words such as bloke LOL

[japanesewhispers79]

This is pretty funny but knackers are balls not panties, that would be knickers

[xoxerikaox]

Yes.

[daidreemer]

I love it!! My lady, my lord!! And they do wear furry clothes and wigs. But I love Matty and Ronnie as well as Mr. Steele!!! And sometimes I dont know a single thing that they say because I dont understand the slang/language but I love it!!!

[invaderYoshi3]

DOUBLE RAINBOW!

[Johnt230]

Love the ad! Really like the show. Have noticed they have pulled the plot from at least 2 episodes of USA series. Done very well, even if you subtitles at times.

[macycarew]

This clip is a riot!!

[captainofiron]

LOL, I expected this to be a spoof, but never an actual BBC america produced piece, very nice. hahaha

[quextico]

Brilliant!

[perfacetus]

The scarves thing is true, I think.

[lifeonmars90]

Ha this chracks

[thefltdriver]

I love how they need to give a thousand clips for each word, because two or three just isn't enough. Funny as.

[holodocdr]

Since when does "cheers" mean "thank you"?

[AudsVids]

@holodocdr There's cheers for when you're having drinks but also cheers if someone does something for you or hands you something. Ireland & UK phrasing is a little different but I'd often say cheers in place of thanks especially if you're following someone through a series of doors and don't want to keep repeating thanks over and over.

[holodocdr]

@AudsVids Thanks, although the only time it's been used by our company's British contacts is in lieu of "Good-bye" on the phone.

[steviesteveo1]

@holodocdr Cheers is actually used in lieu of "thanks for talking / calling".

[pharoahOfAmerica]

That's the most sacrilegious thing I've ever seen: Calling a spawn of Satan (a lawyer) "my lord". Disgusting! No wonder England's going down the toilet (i.e. "loo" ).

[fistofonan]

@pharoahOfAmerica It's not the lawyer who is referred to as "My Lord", but the judge.

[NickTann]

I'm wearing a wig now!

[NIN3LIVES]

beaten to the point by six days but I still have to say that knackers are not pants they're testicles.

[Procrastina777]

No words can describe how amazing that was...."most interesting man in the world"... wow. XD

[madamtorsion]

"They have a well-balanced diet of sandwiches...and pens." - Brilliant!

[AtDamagedBest]

god this is hilarious! kind of made me said though b/c is a huge fan, and the season just ended. gonna have to wait another year for a new season:( NNOOOO!!

[MrLittleDuck]

This bloke clearly hasn't got one iota about what the hell he's wagging about. He clearly has missed his afternoon tea and scotch.

[byuftbl]

Do they really still wear wigs like that in the British court system?

[kevinandrewmoore]

@byuftbl as our American cousins might say: you betcha!

It was Oscar Wilde who put it best; 'the English and the Americans - two nations divided by a common language." :-)

[icemachine79]

@kevinandrewmoore If an American responds to a statement made or a question posed by a fellow American with the phrase "you betcha" in a non-ironic tone they will almost certainly be severely beaten immediately afterward. That's because we're often violent but not necessarily stupid.

[kevinandrewmoore]

@icemachine79 :-) Indeed! (When the violence and stupidity are combined, it's quite scary though - friendly fire incidents for example)

[sludgefingers]

@byuftbl Yes - judges and barristers have to. Barristers are lawyers specially trained in in-court advocacy, i.e. cross examining, presenting evidence, arguing legal points etc. Each defendant has an 'ordinary' lawyer (a solicitor - in ordinary clothes) who prepares the case. The solicitor hires the barrister to speak in court. In minor local courts it's just ordinary clothes and usually no barristers or judges, just magistrates and solicitors.

[MisterCrash241]

"I" love this stuff and I think it is a 'real-good' compliment to the 'origional-series' that we had here in the U.S. of A.! Of course, when I was employed at the "Sung-Hill-Station" they called me 'Bobby'! Even after I made up to 'detective-seargent' they just called me 'Bobby' which means something like 'rookie', right? Sheild # 351!!! I just want to 'shout-it-out' to my constituants in the 'barristers-office'!!!
