BBC Election Night 2008: Jeremy Vine's cowboy

[sollge]

This is literally The Day Today come true. Dear god.

[niknarnevets]

hardly punslinger....

[ironryan36]

he done alite i think.

[Jujuman2003]

He actually does a pretty good hillbilly accent. Sure, it's a little broad, but there are people stateside who really do speak like that.

[hanno12345]

jeeeez how embarrasing

[harrysboy]

whata twat

[SwitchToFlux]

what the fuck is this

[herochao1992]

Leave Jeremy Vine alone he is a brilliant presenter and broadcaster, To the haters of Jeremy Vine stop posting hate comments about him on videos it is 1. childish, 2. pointless and 3 a waste of time, in my opinion people who do hate comments should even have an account here....

I've made my point.......

[woooody316]

We funded this.

[voorface]

Politics on tv = unending cringe of Dad humour. The Office, Peep Show etc have nothing as toe-curling as this!

[thom8406]

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[Bootsybigfin]

10 Gallon Prat ;-)_'

[FuckOfAShit]

Fuck the BBC, and fuck this shit. Astonishing fuckwits.

[tomdissonance]

fucking heck!

[MultiParsley]

Jebus, what a cunt

[PurpleFunnyChocolate]

...What?

[norabudgie]

hes sso crap on the radio too

[chodemastergeneral]

Finally something that makes politics appeal and relate to the younger generations

[carterproductions]

You fuckin idiot Vine!! Shit man, you infuriate me!

[badmichelle1978]

people of the world...this vine gadgy is the biggest cunt in the uk..of all the cunts in the uk, vine, vine is the very worst

[frikkie68a]

I love viewing this clip time and time again to remind myself why I stop listening to Radio 2 at midday.

[Willforbes296532]

Jeremy Vine is just obsessed with making immature, pointless gimmicks out of things. Seriously, listen to his radio 2 show. He just puts loads of stupid sound effects on and stuff when we just want to hear debate..

[saddoproductions]

so this is what the bbc is up to nowadays..

[tellyisrubbish]

Cringeworthy.

[Bunny0ni0n]

"Well now you're starting to look ridiculous." The irony.

[ugforthewin]

Jeremy vine you smug c**t you just cost us the world cup 2018 bid.

[Coruscant98]

@ugforthewin Your an idiot. He just PRESENTS the show.

[TheFreemanuk]

Jeremy vine is the dumbest man ive ever heard speak in public.

[PippinRally]

This is absolutely HILARIOUS.

[mcpwns]

Was Jeremy Vine on crack?

[ravingeddie]

brilliant, i love mr vine

[deliciousdahlia]

Being a cowboy doesn't suit him. He's mad.

[deliciousdahlia]

He's not good at acting, that's for sure.

[massiveants]

fucking hell... what complete cock head

[haynej]

maybe leave the comedy sketches to your lil ole brother

[a120068020]

Easy guys, it's not THAT bad, and I am sure it was an over-enthusiastic producer with a graphics whizz who wanted this in the coverage, not Vine. Its a bit bizarre but Jeremy is a good broadcaster on TV and radio.

[seabreeze08]

What a knob Jockey that boy vine is

[paddedpencil]

his accent goes between sub-par elvis impersonator and southern plantation owner

[northsouthempty]

what the hell is this?

[didleybopp]

@englishrefugee - Can you explain please what you mean by "American accent"? To someone who has lived in America that is as dumb as saying "English accent." Vine is doing a Texan accent, which is extremely different from say, a Boston accent, also very different from a California valley girl accent, and none of which sound anything at all like a New York accent.

[frasercurmudgeon]

This is a relatively good performance by Vine standards. The man obviously has no talent but huge self belief.

[kbtreturns]

thank god he's promised not to do this act again this year!

[LeClassics]

Cheer up everyone, I thought this was hilarious at the time... and still do.

[Wariciest]

=( this video makes me sad

[Rhubba]

Squeal Cleggy!

[NameInFlame]

This was painful to watch.

[BaxofDelights]

Supreme tosser. He should be made to watch this every morning for a year with his eyes wired open then tell him "You're a total knob".

[nanky432]

WTF???

[Jaistar2k22]

I'm American and I'm offended. This is why the major media outlets are losing to bloggers who can post statistics and call it a goddam day.

[mush01]

If they try this shit again this year I'm personally going to go down to Television Centre and slap the controller of the election coverage.

[FiveDigitDisco]

this is the only reason im going to watch election night this year.

[ultrabrilliant]

What the fuck is this shit.

[madabbafan]

we need a facebook petiton 'we want the BBC to bring Peter Snow back for the general election'. Peter was far better than this idiot

[samgoodby]

0:57 - "The Lib Dems go down for General Elections". They'll try anything to get votes.

[Bryn2k]

Peter Snow was at least *expected* to use his gadgets to make a twat of himself so it was enjoyable. Jeremy Vine has a face for radio.

[jaceybatts]

We're paying the fucking licence fee for this shit

[KiraBlackwater]

What the fuck. Vine you fucking cock. and the BBC wonders why it gets accused of dumbing down. If you want to be a children's TV presenter then fuck off and let me watch the news in peace you patronising prick.

[slowfuse]

where can i download this game????

[g00dsir555]

i dont even understand what this shit is but to all our british friends id like to say hello and please dont attempt humor because your country and everyone in it is terminally unfunny

[Stantzs]

This is deeply offensive to me

[tooyjfwn]

rubber-sandal wearing bible-bashing twat

[PRXCV64]

Is this a Taleban recruitment video ?

[kefkaROX]

What...what..the fuck...

Jeremy. Vine. Must Get. Off. Of. The. BBC. NOW.

[SecretTrollAccount1]

Jeremy Vine is a holocaust denier with university level reading skills

[sneakybutler]

what a giant douche

[rinseoutdrycleaner]

this is hilarious lol. is it clegg the kid the new boy in town or calamity clegg? the blokes a fackin legend and he makes my afternoon past ten times as quickly! you miserable sods slagging off vine seriously need to lighten up lol but then again you are probably the same people that sit at home watching bbc parliament

[LionRock08]

where's the Tumbleweed?

[mancity1000]

What . The . F***??? :O

[richardmaudsley77]

Oh, bbc, when will you learn to stop doing goofy shit like this on election night?

[sardanaphalus]

So cringeworthy, inappropriate and ineffective. Urrrggh.

[sammyslimm]

what a cock

[ccnnffpp00660077]

This is worse than Hitler

[BlackpeopleLOL]

What a colossal twat.

[awol2602]

people seem either to hate it or love it.

I'm of the latter persuasion.

[leprosyliz]

Oh GOD

[khalithistle]

i prefer him saying vaguely cowboy-ish things in a crap cowboy accent to him saying vaguely jeremy vine-ish things in his actual voice, which makes me want to chew my fingers off

[thatdrattedcat]

no no no no no

[LionRock08]

The only things missing are the church bell and the tumbleweed.

[UKRThracian]

And this all could have been explained in 30 seconds in simple english without stupid graphics or accents

[tomnufc1]

@UKRThracian haha

[Mrtraveler01]

@UKRThracian But it wouldn't be as unintentionally funny as this.

[disbot0000]

Jeremy vine is brilliant

[Deathugee]

....for me to POOP ON.

[thewirecollection]

wouldn't tire of punching him

[Murxidon]

Genius.

[DYLANESQ]

Vine...

If he had any dignity he'd have turned the gun on himself.

[harryj79]

Bring back Peter Snow!

[PopularTrio]

Jesus wept

[Bryn2k]

This made me cry blood before and it's made me cry blood again.

This should make an appearance on "100 Most Cringeworthy Moments" I reckon...

[DanBaxter]

Awe-inspiring.

[ajannjones]

Come on now? Do we have to be so judgmental? It was entertaining, right?

[orchote]

Thanks a lot...now American political coverage is no longer the stupidest thing I have ever seen...

[masterj345]

hahaha awesome when do u hear a brit trying to impersonate an american and not the other way around! lol

[4930duncan]

Fantastic, what a guy!!

[shadowkitty56]

Accent's not bad, but somebody should tell him that you have to hold a colt revolver like his with TWO hands: too much recoil. (Looking at it again, he forgot to cock the safety...tsk, tsk, tsk....)

[neverbeen2]

how dumb can the bbc get ? :(

[koskenkorva217]

Can I get a refund of my TV licence? If they put this on John Craven's newsround people would accuse the BBC of patronising the kids.

[kodongo87]

You have to love the way he breaks character in the middle and resorts to his normal accent! Who would believe all that thespian talent is contained in one cowboy hat!

[stupidjunk978]

NO NO NO

That's so wrong! Worse than Ming's Bling. Bring back Peter Snow

[leonardsleopard]

what. the. fuck. was. that.

[herochao1992]

oh come on everyone jeremy vine isnt embrassing everybody who think he is hes not hes actually quiet cool even if ya listen to him on radio 2

[ProphetTenebrae]

This is worse than feeding cancerous gravel to a toddler.

[Jazzmonkey24522]

How did this make it on to TV? What a waste of license payer's money

[thestoatofdeath]

My god! This is f***ing worse than the 'Ming's Bling' piece he did the year before. Jeez! I'm STILL not going to watch the insult to one's intelligence that the BBC have the nerve to call news.

[natduh]

jeremy vine is a legend

[lichenxu123]

absolutely cringing

[nikinii98]

no jeremy, no. this is what i've come to expect of him now. listen to his radio 2 show, its ace and full of embarresing things. like the time he had a sex addict on and he trird to get a little too much info from her. i love him, he's almost partridge

[zbelm]

nikinii98, no.

No. HATE him.

HATE HIM.

[paulthepill]

vine = cunt

[watcher9999999999999]

Made me cringe.

[rebelbiscuit]

tit

[notsorry]

Not fantastically awful

Just awful

Why do I pay my TV license

[nintendy]

It would have been even worse, only for Jeremy Vine being so naturallly sexy...

[janamills]

unbelievable!

[Alexiuscom]

Excruciating. Demeaning and insulting (to our intelligence) beyond belief. Even the politicians looked embarrassed for God`s sake - takes some doing. Heads must roll.

[listeningtofire]

"...well now yurr startin'a look ridiculous..." - oh the irony(!)

[Smudger830]

Embarrassing and excreable. Dumbing down beyond belief - whoever suggested this should be sacked.

[MattPhantomBeats]

Plonker!

[lolagerrard]

oh my dear lord

[peter68a]

The BBC actually put this clip on their website. This boy can do no wrong in their eyes.

[primuschimpus]

I was laughing and cringing at the same time. Doesn't happen often.

[DaveUndertaker]

Fantastically awful.

[katherine500]

so sad to see the dumbing dumb of political programming.The licence fee must be in serious doubt after this embarrassment

[bismuthcadmium]

A little bit of humour is OK up to a point but this is downright stupidity.

[PersianPaladin]

Lol

[vonpippy76]

"The Day Today" indeed, proves what a visionary Chris Morris is, and what a sad sad chap Vine is . I despair !

[1972bore]

This is a disgrace. What on earth was he thinking of? It's insulting rubbish..

[theduckofevil]

This man is an idiot!! We pay his wages...wish I had a gun.

[AlexHall1983]

Oh my God! I have just seen this after reading about it for several days, it is worse than I could have possibly imagined!

[izaneerz]

I gave up watching television several years ago. I'm obviously not missing much.

[ravensmead]

"the day today" has come true......what a silly arse!!!!

[tatotal]

This was just awful and the entirety of the BBC's election coverage was lame. They missed numerous results in the midst of all of these shenanighans. Thank god for Sky.

[musungujim]

Did anyone else find the computer Nick Clegg a bit scary?

[chrisirvine1]

I actually quite like Jeremy Vine on the radio, but this is just cringe-worthy. What a pile of sh*te! And coming from the BBC makes it all the worse. Someone should be sacked for this.

[Mazzaren]

You taxpayers in England put up with this? You guys have waaayyy too much money if you do!!!

[tjmuk]

Please tell me someone was sacked for this.

[pxc433]

License fee is a pile of wombat's doos. This is proof.

[llangynllo]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

C to the U to N to the ?

Fucking shyte

[armandfl]

Yes I think the whole thing speaks for itself...

[spindizzy64]

Oh my God. Utterly utterly dismal. What cretin dreamt up this one?

[multipletom]

This was appalling

[gava4]

What an a***hole!!! We pay our licence fee for this!!!
