BRITISH FAMILY REACTS | Family Guy - British Jokes! 

They didn't get the joke where at the end of the trip the entire family had British accents and bad teeth, but Stewie, who usually has a British accent had reverted to an American South accent with Southerner affectations (spitting in a bucket and bad teeth).

The tunnel scene was definitely filmed years before the Queen passed, but it was more related to what happend with Princess Diana.

9:15 that joke was comment on the photographers on motorcycles who in 1997 chased Princess Diana’s car into the tunnel, after the crash most simply walked away as Peter and Chris did.

it's somethin real small but it's noticeable how willing yall are to let each other talk. stopping in the middle of confidently explaining something to let someone else weigh in, that's so underappreciated but it's really telling, not all families or groups have that dynamic

Fun fact: The guy in the pub explaining cricket was voiced by Hugh Laurie. The guy mentioning the “ruddy plum pudding” was also Laurie. He did a few of those voices.

Gotta love it when one scene has references to not only the Queen, but Lady Diana's accident in the tunnel AND a classic Benny Hill cop chase scene.

I love family guy because they take the piss out of everyone

The way I took the tunnel joke was more like princess Diana

The actual episode with the British version of Family Guy was Season 10 Episode 22. Season 10 was 2011-2012 over 11 years before the Queen died, the episode is Family Guy Viewer Mail #2.

The funniest joke here was when Peter fought the chicken as a Brit. It was a 10 second slap fight. The American version is five minutes long and has destroyed cities.

I recently learned (from Christian Bale, whose kids, raised in America, can't do a British accent for shit) that the reason we Americans do such dated UK accents (from wherever) is because we get so much input from old-timey British TV and movies. We don't actually SPEAK to UK citizens on a regular basis, certainly. And the reason that Christian and so many other Brits can do good American accents is because we flooded the market with our own voice, as it were. Easy for everyone to imitate because they've heard it so often.

The scenes at the end where they all had British accents (except Stewie) and they ended up killing the Queen were part of a special episode where the show was poking fun at how American TV networks tend to rip off British TV shows. The joke here was that they were pretending that Family Guy was also such a rip off by presenting its fictional "original" British version called "Chap of the Manor."

The clip where they’re trying to get some of the Queen’s hair features some callbacks to long running jokes from earlier season’s. Like Peter slap fighting with the bird calls back the 3 epic fights he had with a giant chicken, and the banging his knee is a callback to a Willy Wonka parody where he wins a ticket to go to the local brewery.

I'm sure the teeth thing is a very old stereotype(late 40's, early 50's). While we Americans were kind of obsessed with achieving "Hollywood" beauty standards, Brits were concerned with getting things back to normal after the second World War.

As an American, I can confirm we're used to having cold beer. We not only chill our glasses (although that's mostly in bars, we put our beer and wine in the refrigerator too. Can, bottle...doesn't matter what kind of container is in. When you go to a supermarket around here, there's nearly always a section that has some refrigerated beer and wine. Also, the tea time thing is very well known over here.

An unexpected posting time.

“Holy crap! It’s a gay bar!” I flipping lost it at your reactions lol!

Kinda surprised none of them caught on to the Benny Hill theme. 😄

The bad teeth is the BIGGEST stereotype we have of you 😂😂😂

The spontaneous combustion scene at the beginning of the episode is a nod to a scene in Dickens’ Bleak House. To have a main character spontaneously catch on fire was brilliant way of resolving a plot point in the novel.

I’ll say as an American in my experience traveling I’ve found the beer in most European countries to not be as consistently cold as a standard beer in the states

Half the Jokes in the episode used for the last half were actually call backs to things in other episodes or running jokes. The bit with the Pheasant requires knowledge of the running chicken fight joke. Also the trip and fall holding the knee bit is a running gag. Basically the whole episode is a joke of contrasts, a what if.

The running joke my mother and I had when we lived in London was that there was a dentist office next to us, but we never saw anyone go in. The teeth thing comes from fluoride in the water.

I'm 38 and I still read the newspaper. 😶

Yes, that bit about the queen was from long before she passed. Great reaction btw

Man ive seen these episodes sooo many time, i cried laughing at some of these 😂😂😂😂

"The pages aren't stuck together"...umm, you been "reading" dirty mags, eh?

The whole “frosted glass of beer” thing was kind of a fad around the time the US was full of Balls, Daz and Co. that is… I think the warm beer thing probably goes back to older times, perhaps during the war when Americans might’ve encountered room temp beer for the first time

I'm shocked that the Brit family didn't pickup on the Benny Hill parody ( Bobby's chasing the culprits at double time with yakety sax theme playing)

Alcohol countries specialize in America: Beer Ireland: Whiskey France: Wine Britain: nice warm largo

The real British stereotype that you guys fulfilled was the almost being offended by the princes dianna joke lol I’ve definitely heard alot of jokes about you guys caring too much about royalty that really means nothing. I don’t mean this in a rude way by any means, just thought it was funny. Love the reactions!

The crooked teeths gets me every time

The look they all had when they made the joke about the queen dying 😂

love the vids! you guys are awesome keep up the great work :)

I'm sure the "Row House" comment from Peter wasn't understood either. It's from the episode referencing the movie "Road House" with Patrick Swayze. Historically the English didn't refrigerate beer. My grandfather was from England and kept his beer in the cellar but never the fridge.

5:30am. After a 12 hour shift… some funny reactions with beautiful people. Right before bed. Greetings from Idaho USA

Very indeed…Indeed i say, i do say indeed..quite very well indeed i say

The Benny Hill skit just killed me.

The police officers chasing them to Boots Randolph's ' Yaketty Sax" is a parody of The Benny Hill Show.

Fun fact - The Queen is voiced by Cate Blanchett

i love british people, alot of love from portugal 🥰🥰

when you were talking about the pages stuck together I was wondering where you were going

I like how the Princess Diana joke when right over their heads.

9:20 No podía faltar la referencia al gran e inolvidable Benny Hill. Y termina la secuencia con un viejo gag de Family guy, la rodilla de Peter. Saludos desde 🇨🇴 Colombia. The reference to the great and unforgettable Benny Hill could not be missed. And the sequence ends with an old Family Guy gag, Peter's knee.

When we were kids we got our first real long-time exposure to one of the northern accents with the Liverpudlian accent of the Beatles. I used to go around talking to my friends and imitating them--it was not just the words ("birds" were girls--here we said chicks), or pronounciation--a word such as "stuff" was pronounced more like "stoof"--but also the phrasing and inflection, too. After listening to your Manchester I hear some similarities but many differences. One thing from Gaynor especially is pronouncing a word that has a long e sound at the end for us such as candy (i.e., "can-dee"), Gaynor pronounces as "can-day". It all sounds good to me.

The attempted accent I hear most in The States on the tele or from friends/family is the posh accent. I have family from Sussex and they help me out with the different accents. But I admit the closest I can do is posh/London.

the joke about Winston Churchill could’ve been funnier, such as the story about lady Astor saying “if you were my husband Winston, I’d put poison in your tea,” to which he replied, “If you were my wife, I would drink it.” 😂🤣😂 burn baby burn. 😳😖

6:12 Bluey has an episode on Cricket . Episode 47. Best rated episode of that cartoon on IMDB. It came to Disney Plus on January 12,2024.

I just realized. That part where they chased the queen was a play on princess Diana’s death

9:09 literally the queen did already but she’s in a better place now

I was waiting for Aiden's reaction to see that they do more than "posh" British accents. Whenever I hear a British person trying to do an American accent, it's either 1980s California valley girls "Like, oh my gawd... totally awesome.", New York quote from _Midnight Cowboy_ "Hey, I'm walkin' here!", Boston area "Pahk yah cah", and any Southern state "Hey/howdy, y'all." 🫤 As for the teeth in the UK, there used to be a comedian (can't remember his name) that was from the UK, but moved to the US and in his act, said the inbreeding, first cousins marrying in the UK, is why so many people have bad teeth. 🤔 Genetics issues. American comedians talk about backwoods/hillbilly people in the US being dumb as dirt because of inbreeding. They especially like to crack on Southerns about that, but supposedly, the UK, India, Pakistan and other places have many more relatives marrying each other than the US. I don't care if it's my 20th cousin, I'm not marrying him. My family does research before we start a serious relationship with someone. 😄

That last joke really got me. Actually spit out some of my coffee lol

I don't know what language you guys were speaking but I liked your reaction.

I also realized this part 9:05, didn't Princess Diana also got killed in the tunnel?

The last one they actually did show the real photo of the Queen on the show as well!

The hair joke is so true. I pointed this out to my dad 30 years ago when I was around 10. For whatever reason, starting about 65ish - death 90% of women get basically the exact same haircut. Short but a little bit curly/wavy/poofy. As for the British teeth joke, it's a hold over from the 1960s and 70s maybe up to the 80s when the writers were kids. Simpsons made the same joke. Austin Powers too. Compared to Americans, the British did have crooked/yellowish teeth. Teeth were a more important think in America. This changed as time went on. Clearly it's very exaggerated, but if you gathered 1000 Americans and 1000 British people in like 1980, on average Americans would have straight whiter teeth.

So there's history behind the instant combustion thing? I saw an anime where they mentioned it too (black butler)

I think that was a princess Diane reference😂😂

The British Family Guy episode is part of the episode "Family Guy Viewer Mail 2 Family Guy: Season 10, Episode 22" It aired in 2012

I am surprised you didn't recognize the Yakety Sax/Benny hill chase parody.

The episode with the tunnel and the Queen aired May 20, 2012

In north america ALL beers types are kept in the fridge. They even chill harp, smithwicks, killkenny and guinness to about 3-5C

the Tunnel one was done a few years ago.

The reason they're British accents sound like old British is because our version of the King's English language stopped evolving in 1776

Not sure about the tunnel but all smiles when it’s slavery or mass shooting jokes. Hahahaha

That episode originally aired May 20, 2012.

9:10 RIP Queen Elizabeth 😥. 😅

Dudes used to his magazines pages stuck together

They always mention that when Americans do a British accent its almost always outdated and or from a certain region but then when they do an American accent its almost always NY or Southern state based that they assume we all sound like lol.

When the coppies are chasing, the music is from Benny Hill, I think.

Awww yeah! You blokes got served! In your face! 😂

i think the police chase and sideburns were a benny hill thing

The pages aren't even stuck together 😂😂

Here in Latinamerica we loved.Benny Hill. Obviously dubbed in Spanish but still funny.

The tunnel thing hit home.😅

Ironic thing about the one joke is that the "wanker" is now their king

Not sure but, mom looked happy to hear the pages weren't stuck together.

I just realized the tunnel scene is mimicking when princess Diana died because of paparazzi crazy.

Super Funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣, Great Reaction Guy's

What’s amusing to me is how they don’t get so many of these stereotypes. I guess it’s easier to see from the outside.

The teeth issue is the US has fluoride pumped into their tap water which inherently helps teeth not decay. They don’t do this in the UK I don’t believe. Hence the bad teeth jokes.

the queen dying episode was quite a few years ago

No, the Tunnel thing was a Diana thing...

No. We're not JUST used to perfect teeth, a lot of y'all just have big ass teeth😂

I’m an American living in Ireland and recently interviewed with the British director for a role. The only thing I could focus on was how bad his teeth were. Was speaking to my cousin back home in NYC about the interview and she was like ‘why are you surprised, you know the Brit’s have f-up teeth!!’. And having lived in London, I’d say they do have bad teeth 🫣

they have to be Family Guy fans to understand so much of this.. ie: the hitting of the shin and falling to the ground (Bugger)

Benny Hill music for “cop chase”.

How could you leave out the London Silly nannies?

Most of the cultural jokes are at 1940's, pre-US WW2 entry stuff. That's what makes it funny.

Even I as an American was put in Shocked at the tunnel part 😭

I’m surprised they didn’t laugh at the Benny Hill Chase sequence

Sophie & Aiden seemed not to get the Bennie Hill Reference after the queen died, and the cops were chasing them.

Someday that guys son will react to this very video just like his dad and granddad.

The tunnel was a princess diana joke

The queen dying in the tunnel I thought was a princess dianna reference no ?

Queen joke aged like fine wine... queen joke is streamed before she passed away

RIP Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

I thought that your intro-music was the song "Red Right Hand" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds?!

Of course the drunk woman driver is in Wisconsin. I live there and I knew of the village of Neillsville just not Granton but there is a Granton Rd. between them. Like 4 or 5 of the drunkest cities are in this state. Glad i live no where near Neillsville though.

dw all the eps came out over a decade lit ep
