The Now Show - Somali Pirates

[Ruudsosalsa]

Yes..They.....Arrrrrrrr

[Shanga68]

The Chandlers were whipped, threatened with beheading and on the brink of suicide. I'm sure they'll see the humour in this sketch. Pity the BBC didn't spend as much time trying to get them released. Imagine if they were your parents. Are you still laughing?

[welshdevondragon]

@Shanga68 This was pre- the Chandlers. And the job of the Now Show is to be a satirical quiz show. It's not the BBC's job to do diplomacy/ negotiate.

[Hoyhoy617]

[CaligirlSofia]

@Hoyhoy617

are you somali too?

i thought it was funny as well:)

[petebrace1]

That's not a Somali or Nigerian accent - that's a pirate accent...

[Reqrezentin]

That is NOT a somali accent.. Why are you dissing Somalis with that ... It sounds Nigerian..

[Animasword]

@Reqrezentin

They're not really making fun of Somalisans with that voice. The joke is that Marcus CAN'T do a Somalis accent without sounding racist, hence why he says 'I think I should stop' straight afterwards.

[zomgerln]

@Animasword and the biggest joke is that people get mad over something that doesn't even have a single speck of racist intent behind it thus making it not even the tiniest bit racist

[D11NA]

The accent thing is not somalians who speak like that, its the nagerians but guess what they all africans and i love them all. Great show by the way its funny post more.
