Oh, Mr Porter! - Shunting

[Tidermans]

lol this is actually pretty good for a 30s flick

[SkullnatorandBalling]

i think albert just have said to will:

"where do you sent these trucks?"

[douglas18741892]

Dad's Army....

[RedKnight5500]

why these trucks didnt stop after they are being shunted?

[ArtyEffem]

You'd need to be a good stoker to raise steam as quickly as that.

[tgw4life]

"If we had a crane... With some dynamite we could blow it out! And you shut up, too!"

[Giselle76502]

'What is it the rocket?'

Well what were you expecting, Flying Scotsman? Were is the engine now?

[deantor95500]

ROFL dumbfucks they aint checkin somethin 1st b4 this whole shit rolls away lol

[FuckShire67]

[C77200]

BUGGLESKELLY 4 LIFE

[READNATOR90]

[DAMR675]

"belfast, tipperrary, dublin, gentlemen's" ROFL

[ILUVNY20]

yo, after porter just said to both of 'em:

"do you know where you sent them trucks?"

didnt he look to his right to trucks before he said:

"down there why? you have done it!"?

[biscuitsngravy4life]

harbottle:"wait a minute, letta me go first", "She Knows Me"

that part made me fucking pissing my pants off SOOOOO BAD rofl

[ifuckyomama37]

04:25-29 rofl

[alixanderzogos89]

my favorite quotes of this film is:

"If i cant be gladstone and then im gonna not play"

and now thats classic shit lolXD

[mustymodo]

the three stars all squatting on the track as the train bears down on them. they jump out of the way with inches to spare... no computer generated tricks there.

that shot would never have got past the health and safety today, you can't stop these heavy engines quick even if you lock the wheels..

loved these guys in all their films. wish they had stayed a team for longer so they could have filmed some more classics.

[Jinter67]

*as 3 trucks rollin down a cliff after albert & harbettle shunted 'em*

3 trucks: OHHHHHH SHITTTTTTT:O

[listenup45]

Will Porter: whats all the decoration?

harbottle: relief of makin

Will Porter: blimey you just heard of it?

[movingpencil]

@listenup45

'The Relief of Mafakin' a battle in the Boar War, between England and South Africa

[kightly321]

great scene to a great film.

[buzzlover95]

@GenghisKhan44,

what is guy saying at end of this video?

[Robson667]

dat irish elderly is fucking funny as shit

and he shoulda let will start dat thing,

and their engine runs away on 03:20 - 26

and did everyone know wat dat old man

is saying on 03:50 - 03:53?

[pow0006]

Did anyone notice that when the train took off and they jumped out of the way, he nearly slipped and got squashed?

[APRIL141958model]

Yeah! I've watched that scene a few times now, and it looked a bloody near thing to me! I can't imagine a modern actor being allowed to do that - even assuming they would want to! Nobody but a highly trained Stuntman would be allowed to do it these days! GREAT film!

[zombiesonacid]

Quite simply one of the best films ever produced. This one would have to be in the top 100 of the 20th century. Awesome

[offrampt]

That train was like sex in a barn: fucking close to Hay.

[Railroadingfarmer001]

Idiots, they didn't check the reverser orthe regulator before they lit the boiler!!

[APRIL141958model]

I don't know! You anoraks! What would we do without you?! ;-)))

[Bevoin1970]

I love Will Hay films with his cronies. Brilliant !

[redredreds100]

i agree, i loved these guys, Will Hay, Moore Mariot and Graham Moffat, my favourite film, Oh Mr. Porter, my wife hates it with a passion,

[APRIL141958model]

'I loved these guys, Will Hay, Moore Marriot and Graham Moffat...' I loved the Unfriendly Local Owl character, sat on the Station direction sign, encountered by Porter when he got off the bus! He had one hell of a tricky line to deliver there you know! Should have at least got an Oscar nomination for it! I wonder where his career took him after this? 'Harry Potter', I s'pose! By the way, is your wife Irish then? ;-)

[bertayoing]

"whats all the decoration?"

"relief of mafikin"

"blimey you just heard of it?"

LMAO!!!!!

[listenup45]

@bertayoing, what did signalman or will porter saids to

both of these guys before these trucks fell over cliff?

[bertayoing]

@listenup45 will"thats funny how did that happen?

then the rest is..."do you know where you sent them trucks?will>down there why?.....youve done it...then crash bang wallop.

[37427]

Classic film! Dear old Buggleskelly :P

Best quote from this film has to be:

"You're wasting your time!"

[thisiszaphodbeeblebr]

...and his ear'oles painted green!

Brilliant Will Hay Moore Marriot and Graham Moffatt

[SR722]

One of the best railroad-themed films of all time.

[benr1512]

someone should at least make this engine for trainz

[Driverman2008]

Is this movie set in Ireland or England?

[bryemycaz]

Set in Northern Ireland, Filmed in England Though;)

[GenghisKhan44]

Yeah, they sound English, not Irish.

[BritishAlienCompany]

@bryemycaz Do you know if the place they filmed still exists?

[01276]

@BritishAlienCompany The site of the station is now a digger and truck Hire place. The embankments are still pretty visible and you can follow the route of the railway from the road.

[BritishAlienCompany]

@01276 Such a pity its been knocked down. Thank you xxx

[Tungtvann]

@BritishAlienCompany What, England?

[BritishAlienCompany]

@Tungtvann Sadly England doesn't exist anymore. There was a massive riot in the 80's where they dropped the 'En'. Left some rather unfortunate side effects :P xx

[TheDepotCat]

@bryemycaz Yes on the Basingstoke & Alton Light Railway.

The 1928 film "The Wrecker" was also filmed here featuring a train crash>>> watch?v=iIgSZZqRoJA

[leeky7]

The engine was Kent and East Sussex no.2, with the chimney specially fitted to make it look even older!

[perleeman]

Oh Mr Porter is my favourite film ever! A fantastic piece of comedy which is totally underrated. Superb!

[White1Hunter]

great film

[donaldengine9]

I think the funnel's too tall for the engine, but it's a fine engine all the same.

[joeferrito]

"if we had a crane? HA! With some dynamite we could blow it out!"

[bertayoing]

"what is it? the rocket?"lmao!!!

[joeferrito]

no, it's the "locomotion"!

[bertayoing]

i was quoting will hay,no offence to the fine engine,

[joeferrito]

I know. She is beautiful.

[trainlover657]

gladstone is fine tank engine :D

[abbey2you]

brilliant brilliant nothing else to say

[DarkTower97]

aw man that was pretty good!

[mallee59]

This is from my favourite film, have a friend that I watch it with every so often and its still funny even though we know all the words. Sad yes but its great!

[mcdavieg07]

"im gladstone no im gladstone well we cant have 2 gladstones" classical oldies film this who agrees???

[mountfields]

train runs over watch... listens to it ..."its stoped " brillant!!!!!great film... thanks.

[derby6857]

This was filmed at Cliddesden Basingstoke.

[01276]

The site of the station is now a digger and truck Hire place

[NCStL576]

"If I can't be Gladstone, then I'm not playing." Tee-hee.

[kerri494]

If we had a crane we lift it out. With some dynamite we could blow it out!

These three were genius's, and I could watch them over and over again and still laugh at them every time. Thanks for the posting of this great British humour.

[keysofmarinus]

do you have the pole in the town square scene,from wheres that fire?i think its the funniest piece in b/w film history.

[MrBronson66]

I think this is my favourite Will Hay film. The interplay between those three is so good it's unbelievable, very nearly as good as the Marx Brothers for pure chemistry and timing.

[nostromoau]

Wasn't this from "the Ghost Train"?

[01276]

no, oh! mr porter

[TheKubrickFanatic]

however, the plot of 'oh, mr porter' is taken from 'the ghost train'..

[bryemycaz]

Which was written by Arnold Ridley Better known as Private Godfery from Dads Army

[karlydoc]

@nostromoau no "oh, mister porter!" but both films have the same plot,gunrunning

[IconsandImages]

Will Hay, comic genius. It's a shame that his films aren't shown on Network TV these days. In the 80's and 90's his films used to be on BBC & Channel 4 regularly.

[ronthecyborg]

"What is it, the Rocket?"

lmao.

[richardhope]

How superb terrific comic timing no wonder Harry Enfield is a fan ! more please
