[Kimmiie11]

I still love that insult even though I'm supporting Man utd :P

[UncleMikeNJ]

326 people liked this. 4 people are Man United supporters.

[thatguywiththeegg]

T.V. insult of the weeeeeeek!

[missmars12]

this is my new comeback to people that annoy me. It should render them speechless.

[MrFlix76]

Britain would be alot better with gene hunt has prime minister

[Bladerunner93]

I'm going to go say this to my brother. He's a bit of a nancy french bender himself...

[UncleMikeNJ]

If only Man United were as good now as they were then...

Actually, considering the egg they laid at Stamford Bridge, maybe they are!

[genegeenie1944]

I would feel a lot safer in the UK if the police were more like they used to be (Gene Hunt) aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh the good old days :-)

[WinnietheGlue]

hahahaha niceeee

[fransleeuw]

Gene Hunt ne semble pas trop aimer les français ("french bender")...Mais je m'en fiche! I don't care! Je suis un big fan : Gene Hunt à l'Elysée for President!!

[bosto23]

4 people are Man Utd supporters :P

[markymark201186]

haha classic

[MrBond077]

ha The good old days

[TheSamuraiKoala]

Gene Hunt never fails to amaze me =)

[edwardjayyyyyyyyy]

what episode is this??

[randybullcow]

@edwardjayyyyyyyyy It's episode 6 of season 2,well worth watching too is the beginning of Episode 5,the infamous Camberwick Green opening!!!

[Ninty64boy]

Just Phenomenal

[jimbo5631]

i say cut the paperwork and all the rights criminals get. the minute someone yells police brutality the police and in deeper shit than the criminal

[jazzzyy13]

Lol... I would like to see the police more like Gene Hunt but minus the violence in interrogation maybe? Seriously, Gene is amazing.

[Velasca]

As much as I like the Gene Hunt character, I would advise against shouting for his style of policing to become commonplace across the country because that's just what Voldemort and the Illuminati want.

[Ninty64boy]

@Velasca oh what him speaking the truth and not giving a shit what other people think about him, lets get him in charge NOW!!!

[losemysenses]

i am not a fairy!

[xXxAngelicxXx1]

Lol. Damn I love that man! Long live Gene Hunt!!!!!

[SupremeDalek1000]

Same you cut off the last bit "Did you ask you anything other than where the BLOODY HELL IS RAVI?!!" his face at that point is hilarious

[rfitzhen]

We need more cops like gene hunt

[wakeywakeydrakey10]

THE PERFECT INSULT ;) love him :)

[montanatexasfloridaz]

LOL "DID I ASK YOU?"

LOVE IT

[Tukfssr]

how old is gene hunt

[Christheatheist1]

@Tukfssr - Phil Glenister is 47. Gene is probably the same.

[RubyCosmos]

@Christheatheist1 According to the info Matthew Graham gave after the 'Ashes to Ashes' finale, I guess you could say he's just shy of 40 in LoM. If you want to get technical you're getting into spoiler territory and I don't wanna risk wrecking anything for people waiting for the last season of A2A to air on BBC America. :3

[minislim5]

brilant insult lol

[4evergalex]

LEGEND! =) <3 XX

[JamiePS3Howitt]

I have a wild theory that LoM/A2A is GENE's coma-dream, not Sam's or Alex's. It all adds up.

The fact that Gene is in both series.

That Gene is always the big-damn-hero.

GENE: "You're not going anywhere unless I say so. And I don't say so."

SAM: "You can do that? You can send me away?"

GENE: "Yeah."

[4evergalex]

@JamiePS3Howitt OMFG AGREED! xx

[northernsurvivor]

@JamiePS3Howitt Holy Crap! What a theory! :O Sounds like a damn good ending :D

[joeisaflyingfish]

@JamiePS3Howitt BUt you could also sargue that because of these phrases, Gene can let people 'move on' from the coma world. Maybe sam isn't dead in the normal sense of the word, but gene 'killed' him by allowing him to move on.

Just atheory.

[JimmyEngland7]

lol

[ainsleystones]

No health and safety either. Lovely!

[chocolatemonster07]

if Gene Hunt was really in 1973 and was still alive now he would be 78 years old

[drlisacuddy]

Yeah. I have this wild theory that Gene Hunt hit Sam Tyler in '06 and caused him to get sent to 1973 XD

[northernsurvivor]

@drlisacuddy Yeah... But what about Alex? That guy shot her ;)

[northernsurvivor]

@chocolatemonster07 And... It's Gene Hunt. He is the GOD XD

[babyphil]

gene hunt is amazing ... but what does 'french bender' mean, the rest is pretty obvious

[PikaCthulhu]

iirc, Bender is a term used for a Homosexual in the UK, so calling him a French Bender, is calling him a froggy poof.

[Kartlad90]

LMAO!

Gene Hiunt FTW!

[neilam6]

i called my mate that last night cos he wanted 2 go home early lol

[TheGenehunt1973]

best tv character in years lol

[TheImperialElite73]

He's best

[Mattsam1000]

haha i love life on mars best tv show ever!!!1

[xboxboff]

total legand u cant beat him

[UncleMikeNJ]

If Gene Hunt is still alive in 2009, I hope he takes Emmanuel Adebayor aside and teaches him some manners for embarrassing Man City the way he did on Saturday.

[Segaman19]

@UncleMikeNJ Are we sure that Ex-Hull Manager Phil Brown wasn't trying his hand at a Gene-Hunt-style moment when he did the half-time talk in front of the Hull fans?

[UncleMikeNJ]

@Segaman19 No, because, whatever his faults (on either side of the Atlantic), Gene Hunt wasn't a lying permatanned cunt like Phil Brown. Keitel's Gene, and I suspect Glenister's as well, woulda taken a hammer to Phil's sternum and then taken a nice long swig of whiskey.

[jackakaazrael]

class he was right about the man utd fans to.

[komrenboy]

Gene Hunt is unbelievable! Philip Glenister is a genius:)

[UK31337]

Watch closely as the actress tries desperately at the start to keep a straight face.

[ACODroog]

The genius that is Gene Hunt. EPIC!

[AshestoAshesBigFan11]

you great soft, sissy, girly, nancy, french, bender, man united supporting, puff

(i support man u)

[Primordeum]

Gene Hunt is my hero

[inkubusan]

I cried...

[lumberjackcowboy]

Gene Hunt , the only man that could make Dirty Harry cry!

[mrswilberforce]

right on!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D

[CornishCreamtea07]

There releasing a T-shirt quieting those lines

[ACODroog]

Normally this spam shit annoys me, but I actually found your comment quite funny.

[playfulpaul1985]

if i went to bed every night and ended up like sam id never wake up

[xSteveJx]

Couldnt have put it better myself Gene.

CTID

[LeeJTurnock]

Philip Glenister in an interview - "I can't work out why I'm a sex symbol, I've got piss poor skin". Even that makes me laugh. He's naturally funny!

[xkissxkissxkissx]

what interview was that?

[LeeJTurnock]

A newspaper interview a few years back. He also said "It's not me women fancy, it's Gene Hunt".

[Elllie960]

he's got a point..

[Chicagofairy]

agree- philip comes across as a lovely man, but i am in love with gene hunt xD

[therealshell]

Gene Hunt is my hero.

[coracleman]

GH reminds me of inspector Grim of the thin blue line! LOL!

coraclewoman

[iamthestig1]

oh yeh he's funny too...

[Captainjackness]

LOL!!!!!!!

[SuneyJ]

LOL

That Man utd at the end was the cherry on top

[bloodheart06]

LOL you cant ever comeback from that insult

[fletchers4]

The Chuck Norris of insults.

[DarlinDaisyDuke]

Gene Hunt is legendary,, fell from hell,, no doubt about that,, and as he rightly said,, the good the bad and the ugly,, im all of them...:D

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Say it as it is.. No messing about words dont hurt and the racist or homophobic thing is just a way for people to make money out of the system so they dont have to work. I am a honkey any one want to give me £25k compensation. No i think not. We need coppers in the UK like Gene Hunt who do the job not told how to do it by a load of stuck up half dead over paid MP's

[zoemills242]

spot on. im all for people having rights but they do take the piss!

[belantino1979]

@AUTORECOVERYUK ha ha top man , i'll vote 4 u mate , well said

[dvdsmlprstylr]

@AUTORECOVERYUK I would agree, however, to inforce your argument, you need to show an unbiased take on it.

Think of the innocent people who were beaten up for no purpose. How would YOU feel if YOU were walking along and get beaten up by the police before they say anything.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@dvdsmlprstylr I was a teenager in the early 80's i had the back of a coppers hand round my head several times. I was thrashed when i was bad by my father & at school i was punished with a wooden meter ruler or a T square a gym shoe or a cane across my backside . I got in trouble with the police at 16 & know all to well what the 80's coppers were like. I now run my own garage hence my name on you tube, So what happened to me back then made me stronger & taught me respect unlike kids of today

[dvdsmlprstylr]

@AUTORECOVERYUK I am a "kid" of today. I haven't had ANY physical punishment. I have been disciplined by my parents. I have NEVER had a detention at school - LET ALONE getting in trouble with the law. I have been taught that if you give respect, you will achieve it (instead of only giving respect once it is shown by the other person).

There are plenty of "kids" like me. I (and my friends) are ASHAMED of being teens in 2010. If only I was born in 1955.

LONG LIVE CHUCK BERRY

[TwilightBellaForever]

@AUTORECOVERYUK slow down dude, I'm a "kid" of today too and I too have been disciplined by my parents, not had any physical punishment, only got detention ONCE which wasn't my fault and I didn't have to serve it, I've been taught to respect people even if they don't respect me, I will ALWAYS show respect first. What does that make me? A strong person too or some kinda ASBO wearing, cider drinking, have sex with any bloke teenager? Your points are not only invalid but also ill informed.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@TwilightBellaForever Well when you have a few more years under your belt and have lived in other decades as i have then you can say i am ill informed. Living in the 70's and 80's cant be done on you tube or a few nights on google. If you lived in those years you would of seen what i was saying. Life is not the internet life is real and it is nothing like it was back then. This is how it was before the PC lot destroyed the UK . Oh and 66 other ill informed people agree with me as well.

[TwilightBellaForever]

@AUTORECOVERYUK few years under my belt? I'm 20 this year how many bloody years d'you want me to have? wow give the dude a round of applause -.-; I know real life is real life, dude I've known that for all of my 19/20 years of living and breathing. Thank you for informing me of something I already knew. I'm guessing then you're like in your 40's? 50's then? cause you're talking like my grandad would about the trouble makers in his street..

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@TwilightBellaForever My point exactly you are one year over being a teenager and with the way you call people "dude" it shows you are not mature enough to have a conversation like this on here. At least there is one thing you have learnt now you are all so grown up for 20 and thats how to swear in a normal adult conversation. I bet you wouldn't speak to your grandad like that. I rest my case. Come back and talk experience in life when you've had one .....

[TwilightBellaForever]

@AUTORECOVERYUK maybe because I don't actually want to swear at you. And yes I would actually we have a laugh about it. Cause believe it or not, me and my grandad are actually that close *rolls eyes*

[cmoz88]

@AUTORECOVERYUK Don't be a wanker and stop arguing in youtube comments, you Manchester United supporting puff.

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

@cmoz88 Well 69 people agree with my comments and i think arguing is better than swearing on you tube. But hay each to their own. Thank you so much for your wise words. ..

[TwilightBellaForever]

@AUTORECOVERYUK no 70 people agreed with you talking about Gene Hunt saying it as it is. 70 people did not agree with you putting a whole generation into one box for the sake of the idiots who don't give a damn.

[RandBMuiscSupplement]

@AUTORECOVERYUK I agree mate, but to be honest it was just a joke about Sam Tyler acting like a twat, wasn't anything else mate so might not need to go for the Political shit about racism & stereotyoes mate lol :D

[psychodamned]

Gene Hunt is God !

[borgduck]

@psychodamned More like the Devil!

[GrabMySanity]

Lol, that was the best insult ever. Though United are the best Tbh.

[Moans45]

epic fail

[GrabMySanity]

I only support them cos of my family to tell you the truth, s'pose i have a right since im mancunian hehe

[kingdomofheaven666]

Tv insult of the weeeeeek!

[hayleigh13]

What an amazing insult

LMAO

[sakesakesakey]

Gene Hunt kicks ass...seriously. lmao =D

[carcrazy921]

what an insult!

[breakingthehabit2008]

LOL

[Sithlordxxxx]

Can anyone tell me how do they call Gene in the station? Gaff, Goff or something like that, i cant hear it clearly. pls answer :)

[Rimmerslasher06]

Guv- short for governor- which is just like english slang for sir.

[barbsbudo]

it's 'guv'

[MIGHTYBOOSCH198]

I think it's Guv as is short for Gouvener

[modcouple]

Informal police ranks:

Guv (governor) is an inspector

Skip (or Skipper) is a sergeant

At least it is in London in the Sweeney, Regan (DI) was the 'Guv' and Carter (DS) was the skipper. Though it was clearly different in Manchester in 1973.

[iain943]

if only we had police like that now, wouldnt be any chavs thinking there hard on the streets anymore :D

[Dirtcreature]

Couldn't agree more! If the police were more like Gene Hunt, the streets of the UK would be much safer

[MaidenBby]

I well fancy him (:

[thecrackfox666]

which ep. is this on?

[hardcoreheaven4]

Season 2, Episode 6. Ugandan Asian heroin.

[RotHHF]

There's only one possible response to that in my book: "I'm not French."

[RhiannonRulesOK]

Hahahahaha

Yeahh.. :D

[Elanchana]

The Gallagher brothers would be proud.

[ChrisJamesMorris]

HAHAHA! Munich, Munich 58!

[Nowy1978]

man united supporting puff ;))))))))))))))

[thegiantpigeon]

this may sound a little off but why not have the 70's cop tactics e.g police can beat the crap out of any thug and the interogations etc but with the same forensics so that they no who committed the crime i think thats what britain needs right now people like gene and his comrades

[hardcoreheaven4]

The Police And Criminal Evidence Act, The Human Rights Act, all of these Man United supporting reasons lol

[thecrackfox666]

i wish he was my dad ;)

[RhiannonRulesOK]

Haha.. me too. if u didnt like anyone.. set gene on them. they'd soon be sorry!! :D:D

[Peglol96]

Gene Hunt's one hundred insults...XD My man...

[JediSlayer22]

Hooray for the Gene Genie

[Stevelax87]

The best bit is the Man United supporting puff! As i City fan myself i can fully relate! Support the one and only true Manc team! Puffs!

[m00iesteaua]

That's all that can make you happy :))

[Thindza]

@Stevelax87

Well you are still a poofter cheering for a shitty football club

[themctube]

Nancy bender!!

[ycsdgbbycchylt]

totally agree there should be more gene hunts in the world (a bit less violent and insulting though)

[whydoitman]

if modern policing was more like this in the Gene Hunt era then police would get more done and not have to worry about political corectness bollocks.

[whydoitman]

if modern policing was more like this in the Gene Hunt era then police would get more done and not have to worry about political corectness bollocks.

[potstillbill]

Maybe, but would YOU like to help the police with their enquiries if they were like Gene?

A bit scary i think lol.

[spazzumgurl]

A bit scary? Oh yeah. A lot scary. But everyone would be too afraid to not do what he says. Every town needs a Guv. :)

[teferabbitoh]

You gotta love the Gene Genie

[orangebark]

classic!

[RICYD18]

LEGEND!!!!!

[spike270490]

legend! so blunt, i love it!

[cheychoy]

who's the girl in yellow?

[BritLord]

Her name is Alex Reid, she was also in Ultimate Force with Ross Kemp.

[ATARawks]

It's Mia's mum, mia is sams girlfriend in 2006/2007. =]

[lilacbird]

i did like when, in the last episode of life on mars, he said 'im not a bloody fairy!' as a declination to sams offer of help.

[a2afan]

Loved Sam but I mean Gene Hunt is a living (albeit fictional) Legend! :)

[Finegold2]

hahahaha wats with the french though?

[mikesatomicdustbin]

cause being called french is worse then anything else, to a brit

[starionkid]

[QueenAreTheBest]

[asulei]

LMFAO CLASSIC

[RobinLurvessHimm]

hahahahahahahaha thats funny

[KaiserChik666]

Ha HA Ha! this is so funny-it must be the best insult ever!

[BritLord]

I'm surprised the "impartial" BBC aired such a politically incorrect line :-)

I wouldn't have been surprised if some hand wringing leftie had of declared it a "hate crime" though.

We live in the UK......Unhinged Kingdom.

[KingPiccolo001]

"politically incorrect line :-)"

well it was based in an era where being PC was not important

[LadyCayenne]

Those were they days...

[ArakanaBow]

As opposed to one of those "I really really like you" sort of insults?

Gene Hunt rules x3

[BritLord]

LOL! Yeah those insults are my favs :-)

Btw that is probably my favourite Gene Hunt line when Sam Tyler calls that murder a "hate crime" and Gene replies something like "what as opposed to one of those I really really like you type murders". Classic.

Gene Hunt is the greatest, end of.

[sk8dude2000]

Gene Hunt's insults are the best. Excellent.

[Tudor75]

Gene Hunt is second only to Jack Regan as the greatest cop of all time.

[potterxt600ttr250c90]

another good 1 is 'dont move your surrounded by armed barstards' its my ringtone

[steesh43]

the man united bit is the most hurtful imagine being called that

[RidgeAxe]

I agree. How low did the great man stoop there? :-)

[eblovesdb]

best quote in the history of television!

[scottishlowoflow]

by the way its not puff its poof- short for poofter

[hayleylloyd2007]

The gene genie rox n he's such a gd actor. I agree with "macktheknife12" whoever writes his lines should be a comedian and i find absolutely hilarious lol!

[mufcevo]

Even though that kinda offends me... Gene Hunt rocks!!!

[woodgatejack]

Gene Hunt, fucking rocks!

[MackTheKnife12]

I just saw this episode right now on DVD and i knew this quote would be on youtube, i literally was rolling on the floor laughing(maybe cuz i'm a Chelsea fan). Besides Tony Soprano the Gene Genie's the best TV character ever whoever writes his lines is a fucking GENIUS, he's got catchphrases for days!

[marvelite90]

Best. Line. Ever.

[Robinlincoln]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[HappiiChao]

Lmao me and my brother were wetting ourselves when we first watched this bit on TV XD

[mrshnitburg]

love life on mars, love the insult and gene genie is just fantastic
