British Couple Reacts | Family Guy - British Jokes 

You didn't catch, when the whole family turns British, Stewie spits and talks in a Southern U.S. accent, when normally he is the only one with a British accent

the queen dying was more of a bit based on princess diana's death not the queens

I am British and old enough to understand / be familiar with all the historical and cultural references, situations, and events that Family Guy is lampooning. It got all of it. It never fails to make me laugh. I love it. Perhaps the younger generation are not so aware of their past. Not surprising as many RU-vidrs probably don't know a Britain before 1990.

A few of those are running gags. Like Peter fighting the chicken and him hitting his knee.

I think the Tunnel death was a Princess Diana reference.

The British version of the Chicken fight 😂😂😂😂😂

The British theater scene played on thick accents that they couldn't understand. The scene with the Queen's parade and the pheasant is a throwback to a running gag of Peter fighting a giant chicken, fights that can go on for five minutes.

the music that was playing towards the end when they were being chased by the cops and before Peter fell, is the theme music to the Benny Hill show. He was an English comedian who died in 1992, but his show was very popular here in the US.

The British play was spot on. I usually only understand half of British tv with all the slang and the heavy accents. That's exactly what it sounds like to me.

A lot of the jokes you may not have gotten were a "British" take on their regular jokes they do all the time. For instance the slap fight with the giant chicken. That fight is usually to the death with all sorts of blood and mayhem. Or maybe the part where the bobbies chase around Peter and Chris at high speed to the sound of "Yackity Sax" music, is a takeoff of the old British show (which was a hit here in the States) called Benny Hill.

You both "not getting" the Theater scene was too hilarious. That was an average American not understanding Brittish accents. " I dungiet that...hilarious 😂

Millie teases James about his thick accent and neither one got the joke about Americans not understanding the actors in the British play! Best line of the whole thing: "Grimson on the bingham with the gam gom" BAHAHA!! Reminds me of how hard I struggled understanding Shakespeare in high school. And you guys missed the part when the cricket announcer says he's got two short legs. So many jokes and I wonder if the younger generation of Brits ever heard of Benny Hill. Classic reaction I loved watching (:

The play was a gag on how difficult some British accents are to us Yanks. When I watch most programs filmed in the UK I always turn on closed caption so I don't miss anything said.

The bobbies chasing him was a Benny Hill reference .

Loved the cops chasing them around to the Benny Hill Show theme.

The queen did not die in a tunnel, but Princess Diana did I’m pretty sure that’s what they were making fun of 😂😂

I am so glad that you can laugh at us taking the piss out of your nationality. We mean no harm. We razz on everyone. Many of us in U.S.A. love British culture. By the way, Millie you look absolutely gorgeous. What a beautiful child you are going to have. My best to you both. Be well.

The copper chase after the (Diana) tunnel thing was based on the old Benny Hill show, I imagine - same music/style.

The queen dying in the tunnel - think Lady Di. Poor humor that one..

The British version of Stewie being an American redneck hick cracks me up every time. it just never gets old.

The gag around 2:40 is that outside the UK, we don't understand your slang and fast talking.

The Chicken fight is a semi - recurring theme in family guy (long story) its usually a long brutal & protracted knock down drag out involving the whole town but being this is a british chicken fight they changed it to slap fight LOL

"it sounded quite French that one" was the funniest line in the video!

The musical bit where the coppers are in pursuit of Peter and Chris for lopping off a strand of the Queen's hair and killing her in the process is a nod from any chase scene on The Benny Hill show (FYI: A British comedy we watched here in the states back in 1980s and 90s).

The cops running around after them with the silly music playing is a Benny Hill reference. Idk if you go it or not, but if you didn't, that's what it was.

The teeth jokes are more from the past not the present. From WW2 to the British musicians in the 60s and 70s. So many had crooked or missing teeth, it just became the running joke.

The Queen in the tunnel was a gutsy joke. Do you remember a certain (former) member of royalty dieing in a crash, in a tunnel, while being chased? It was a major news story.

i dont think they grasped the reference to Princess Diana and the tunnel.

In the normal Family Guy episodes, Peter has a giant chicken as his nemesis. So it was a fowl he fought with in England. Lol

Peter and the chicken everytime they see each other fight, the scenes are what action movies are made of lol

Taking out the Queen in a tunnel is mint!

Love the Benny Hill cop chase bit LOL

You DIDN'T get the Benny Hill chase skit?

You guys are terrific and I'm really enjoying the heck out of your channel. Keep it up! You both seem like a lot of fun to be around.

The tunnel car crash is a Princess Diana reference, who died in a tunnel crash, being chase by paparazzi on a motorcycle

The pheasant is a call back to a running joke on the show involving a chicken he fights with. The joke is only in the comparison. And the chase to music with the Bobbies after them is the song Yakkety Sax used by Benny Hill for similar chases on the Benny Hill Show.

Haven't watched you guys in a long time but happy to catch up on everything you've posted, and from what I've heard you guys are expecting, you guys seem to be a amazing couple so ik they will be born into a great family

6:17 If you watch a lot of Family Guy you'll find that Peter has an ongoing feud with a person sized chicken which often turns into all out brawls that can last for a good bit of the episode. This was a variation on that.

LOL, you guys didn't get the Benny Hill reference when the cops were chasing them around?

The play one was a pull on some words and what they meant, slang England still. That was fun thanks.

The thing with the chicken is a running gag which is usually long and violent, but this time rather polite at the end, and apparently an English chicken.

the world needs laughter and a sense of humor right now more than ever!

The Queen didn't die like that but Princess Diana did.

The Peter and Chicken is a long running joke where they have epic fights.

The police chase after the crash was a reference to the great Benny Hill

The bulldog nailed Britishness to a tee! He was quintessentially British.

I remember trying to watch British sitcoms back in the 80s and not understanding what the heck they were saying and why the audience was laughing. Brings back memories.

Them running from the "coppers".... you two are too young to remember the Benny Hill show... that Keystone Cops type of chase scene was common on the show. Used to watch it with my grandma late at night... Benny was so funny!

The 1 with the theater is because sometimes some English dialects are difficult to understand we from the US can't understand 🤣 sometimes I don't understand James, he sounds like he has a mouth full of marbles 🤔 but y'all are so cute I don't care 🥰👍🤣🤣🤣

From 7:15 onwars is a reference to Lady D death, they were following her into a tunnel. My heart hearts. And after that is a classical Benny Hill chase reference.

Benny Hill is still a god in America 🤘

Tell that cigarette to shut up...lmao😂

Churchill was once called drunk and he responded, you're ugly but ill be sober in the morning. very famous quote hence this joke

Cute couple, working hard, so I subscribed. Can't understand you about 1/4th of the time, which adds to the charm. All the best!

Shout out from West Virginia! Always great reactions! Much Love!

My, Dad always that clearing of throat thing while reading the newspaper too 😂😂.

The Queen in the tunnel was a reference to Princess Di quickly followed by Benney Hill. Family Guy was never known for its good taste.

“How long does this go on for?” 😂 Awesome

The Plat was a spoof of Rhyming Cockney, with a helping of no one; even a Scot; being able to understand a Geordie

The tunnel/chasing one was brutal :D

OMFG that was the funniest thing ever!. The irony of you not getting that specific joke! LOL

One does realize that the queen being chased by a motorcycle and dying in a tunnel is a reference to Princess Diana's death, doesn't one?

You seemed quite confused about the “coppers” chasing Peter after the obvious play on the Princess Diana death. That was a play on Bennie Hill scenes. Also the pheasant fight is a play on his regular fights with a chicken (as an American Peter.). Pheasant hunting being a British past time of fowl hunters in the UK.

As an American that loved princess Diana, that joke was uncalled for by family guy.

Chicken fight, thats a running gag on the show, US version they fight everywhere causing damage everywhere they fight. Griffins chasing the queen , thats a Princess Diana homage to how she died (paparazzi chasing her in France)

The music playing when the cops are chasing them is the theme from the Benny Hill Show.

You defintely missed the tunnel Lady Di joke.

The wreck was a nod to princess Diane and her crash I think

I really enjoy watching videos with you both 👍

6:19 6:31 Oh, Come On! You mean you guys haven't seen Peter fighting Ernie The Giant Chicken?! It's one of the best running gags/cutaways in Family Guy!

@thebeesleys I'm so glad you two have a sense of humor, some people don't. 😁

I guess James and Millie forgot about how Princess Diana died.

The best one is the bulldog 😂

“Someone tell this cigarette to shut up” 😂

Okay. So the tunnel part was referencing Princess Diana's death. The "cop scene" after was referencing a Benny Hill sketch (including the music).

The joke you didn't get is that sometimes nobody knows wtf you guys are saying 😅

The character, Peter always beats up a chicken randomly every season. So that should be the British version of the chicken that he beats up

Love that you’re wearing a Denver pioneers hoodie. I was born and still live in Denver,

The police chasing them with the catchy music in the background is from the old Benny Hill shows from the 70’s and 80’s … where Benny would chase and be chased by scantily clad ladies and small old guys to that music . Your welcome 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

1. The theater scene was joking about how, though thought of as very cultured by Americans, we can't understand what Brits are saying half the time. 2. The pheasant and the "...bugger!" scene were just "Britishified" versions of running gags. They were funny because you were supposed to recognize the joke from previous episodes, except it was the "British" version. Extra humor comes from the fact that, in the original version of the joke, the bird is a random giant rooster and the show spends a good ten minutes following their increasingly involved fight as they mercilessly beat each other senseless. The British version has Peter slap-fight a pheasant for a few seconds. "Englishmen are sissies," is the joke. 3. The tunnel crash scene was an allusion to Princess Diana's death which had a huge impact even in the US. Family Guy humor is often based on "Oh my! I can't believe they referenced that [controversial/revered/sensitive] topic! How witty!" It's lazy, easy, tasteless comedy and one of the reasons I stopped watching. 4. The teeth thing is a hold-over from earlier times. Over the last few decades, the Brits' dental hygiene has basically caught up to American standards. However, we Americans invented modern dentistry and, up till a few decades back, the difference was pretty noticeable. Of course, we still mock the Dutch for stereotypes going back to colonial times most Americans don't even know the source of, so the teeth joke probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Peter tried to get a lock of the Queen's hair😂😂😂😂

The tunnel is in reference to princess Diana.

Even a Benny Hill chase.

There are a lot of running gags in Family Guy that reactors tend to miss because of the lack of context.

The joke about the Queen dying in the tunnel was a reference to how Princess Diana died in a tunnel behind harassed by paparazzi.

I love how they didn't get the Benny Hill shtick lol

Pretty sure the way they killed the Queen in the tunnel is referencing the way Princess Diana was killed. So dark, brutal, and brilliant!

When the cops were chasing them at fast speed, that was from the ending of the Benny Hill Show.

As someone who lives in Denver, I did not expect you to be wearing a University of Denver hoodie haha.

Love "that one sounded a bit french, that one". And you didn't get offended. Well, maybe the wife did. Love your channel. Long live the king, miss the queen though

I mean how many British people do you know that have had braces though? Lol.

I am British but my ex-wife is American. Someone once asked her if she knew any British jokes. She said, "Yes, I married one."

You guys didn't get the Benny Hill reference. Classic show

there are many popular british shows that aired weekly in america of which are alluded to.

May the Queen Rest in Peace.

Glad you enjoyed it

The cops chasing them was a reference to British comedian Benny Hill's show.

Whenever a cutscene runs long it means that the episode is running short.

The theater scene is mocking the fact that even though we share a common language sometimes British people speak so quickly with so thick an accent using phases and idioms we have no clue about you might as well be speaking gibberish.

Anytime Peter sees a giant bird, they get into a crazy fight. That's why he got into a slap fight with the bird
