Nothing like a Craig supercut to really make you feel some sort of way about being alive! I would love to have Eleanor as a speaker at uni, but I feel the energy of my thesis defense would be much more accurately captured by Craig's world-weariness.
When I first discovered Eleanor's channel, I had been dreaming about touring Scotland (I haven't yet, but I still will. Covid, a Germany trip, and a Prague trip got in the way.) I didn't realize that Craig was one character that she just ran with because he was hysterical. So I started to think all Scottish tour guides were like that and I got nervous. After watching 90% of Eleanor's content, I was reassured. If someone mocks me for my history-nerd ways, I'll take it with love. 😉
It’s what the people want. You’ll create many things in your life, but Craig the Tour Guide is canonical now - if you did nothing else, you’d have created Craig, and that’s an achievement you should genuinely be proud of. 10/10
This supercut is one extreme: piling together every Craig tour. I plan to go the other way and make my ringtone a deep sigh followed by "My name is Craig." It's nonsensical, but if you know, you know.
oh, there are at least two episodes missing, the Loch Ness tour and the one with run for your life from vampire brides (forgot the title (castle ravenloft)) edit: and both the zoo tour and westminster tour
I stopped off in Edinburgh recently on the way to the Scottish Highlands and Craig's guidance was very useful on letting me know which attractions to avoid. Thank you Craig for providing a valuable service!
All these Craig’s at once may be too much of a good thing. As I watch this, it is dawning on me that life is pointless. I should cancel all my travel plans and just go back to bed. Wake me up when the Big Whimper happens. Or not.
So I'm watching Jurassic World, the faintest carnivorous has escaped and, all unbidden, "ma naeme is Crraig, I"m yer (giving up on the accent) your guide. All guests are bid to return to the hotels.. I your children are rolling across our lush meadows and sparkling streams in a glorified hamster ball, please see the grief counselors located in the Stardust Ballroom...."
I don't understand why Craig can't seem to hold down a job. He speaks all the right words in the right order every time. His level of enthusiasm, while falling a little below the infectious, is certainly evident to all. If you want a subtle blend of well informed and sullen, he is your man every time. I rather fancy him as well. Must get a grip.
I hear you say "Edinboro" when you say "Edinburg." There's a town called Edinboro, with a university called Edinboro, south of where I live on the lakeshore in northwest Pennsylvania.
♥️How wonderful !!! Repeat viewing ensured ~ although the inaccurate subtitles get in the way. I can understand her without them, even though I haven't been back to Scotland since I was born there 76 years ago!🌲
