The Two Ronnies DID makes sense, it's just that their sketches were so quick you have to be really on the ball. I had to watch the mispronunciation sketch 5 times to get it all, it's so clever! May I also remind those who are offended by the accent, of The Swedish Chef on the Muppets?! Do you criticise the puppet for not sounding swedish?
Sorry, but I don't get the being insulted thing at all. This is a comedy sketch, for goodness sake! However, when I commented about David Cameron's use of a supposed German accent in a speech a while back about ID cards, where he was deliberating using the image of a long-gone totalitarian state to frighten people - I was told by other users to LIGHTEN UP, as it was 'JUST' a joke!! Where's the logic in that, if a comedian can't make jokes in a foreign accent, but a politician can??
It's brilliant, considering how this is how cyber people chat on the internet like this now..............20 odd years before the event. And i fell about laughing realizing you do not get the "P T" picture joke till he says "CT" for the second pic....
looking back at some of the comments people made, makes you wonder how they even turn their computer on. Its comedy live with it brits take the piss out themselves just as much as any country
i cant belive people are rowing about this its classic english comedy at its most witty! any one who doesnt get it should go back 30 years to a time when comedy was a bit more sophisticated than the bollocks of today
All you people who find this insulting need to develop a sense of humour. US shows mock British shows many time, but you don't hear us complaining. Take a joke every now and then! There is nothing remotely offensive about this sketch. Even if there is, it's entirely unintentional: no one intentionally tries to offend anyone, so you really shouldn't jump the gun. That's how wars start.
@VGRetro You don't get it, the insulting part is not to be parodized, the insulting part is when the parody doesn't have anything to do with what it parodizes. It's like being British and being parodized by someone who tries to sound Japanese or French with the intention to come off as British. I mean, it doesn't make sense. Why does he have a German accent? It might be the case that he has confused Sweden with Switzerland.
@mjonas10 The Two Ronnies were famous for not making sense. They came on and talked nonsense. It's meant to be funny, and not an attack against anyone. If you're finding this offensive, I'm sorry, but you need to lighten up.
@VGRetro - Hilarious sketch - but I don't agree that the 2 Ronnies didn't make sense. Their comedy was extremely clever, even though what came out sounded like nonsense - e.g. the sketch with Ronnie B. as a newsreader where all the 'e's have been typed as 'o's, or the 'crossed lines' telephone call :-)) It all shows just how versatile the English language is!
I'm Swedish and loved it - almost as great as the Swedish made penis-enlarger in Austin Powers and the Swedish chef! Just ignore the humorless and easily offended dimwits complaining about unaccurate accents. Bork, bork!
Why does everybody take things like this so seriously? It's only a bit of fun, and they don't mean to be racist, and it isn't, just some people are too easily insulted and can't laugh at theirselves
The fact that they are saying this is Swedish is irrelevant to the comedy, if it makes you feel better calling it another accent, do so, its English with a funny accent which is their point and Swedes speak English with a funny accent. Swedes lack the ability to laugh at themselves and walk around with sticks up their butts most of the time, so its SOOOO fun to make fun of them, drool over their dumb busty blond women and have them carry our skis.
I thought this a creative and original sketch. Perhaps it is too intelligent for a lot of people to understand. If a person simply listens and pays attention, it is a delightful sketch. Most want comedy to be dumb and obvious not requiring thought. "The Two Ronnies" were two of the most intelligent comics ever to come along. Ronnie Barker's facility with words and word-play was nonpareil. As for the Swedish accent, for heavens sakes, this is a COMIC sketch; not an Oxford lesson in linguistics.
Answer to JackAnderson123: I live in Sweden and the most of us have the same accent as the man in that video. It is a common swedish accent. The majotity have that accent. Why do you insult my country and my beautiful swedish accent? I am a proud swede and I dont think you ever have been in our beutiful country. Welcome to Sweden!
Looool.. "In sweden they use subtitles" .. HAHAHHHAHAHA .. :D In German they dub the movies.. so fucking lame! .. :D Dubbing is just for kiddie movies :P
I know, but a bad title gives wrong epectations. I rather expected "swedish chef" style. Compare it to the sketch "Let's speak english" from "At last the 1948 Show". Both are very funny, but the latter actually does what it says.
They are not abbreviations as such, but letters which sound like words, as in 'M' for ham, or 'X' for eggs, 'U' for you, 'V' for we (with a foreign accent) and 'R' for are. It became a standing joke in Britain long before people were texting things like 'CU' (see you)!
Brilliant comic from golden Age of British TV!You are best!I am Swede and i can tell Swedish Professors are just like that!We don´t either understand them.
