Everything Adele Misses From The UK When She's In The USA | The Graham Norton Show 

That would of course be "our *h-u-m-o-U-r"* actually 😊😁😆.... ~❤

@@alexysq2660 But it is true. The farther you travel from the UK the less humour people tend to have. The Dutch border with Belgium and Germany is where it basically ends.....

@@Four-of-Six Would more or less have to agree; although - within Germany itself - the Berliners can/do have rather an interesting, quite sardonic and quirky sense of humour in fact 💖....

@@alexysq2660 nah lol. Brit raised in Germany with an Hispanic American husband... Germans are unfunny and boring sadly (and don't get your knickers in a twist, there's exceptions to every rule everywhere) Brits are funny and dry but rest of the world (I've encountered lol) just doesn't get the sarcasm. The looks I got from Americans when I was being sarcastic or joking. It's just not as much a thing over there.

@@mackie911 only humour I can do properly myself is sarcasm 😂👍🏻, l am Dutch btw. The humour here can be a dark, like racism, sexism, making fun of people etc. But most time you make a joke, everybody kind of know you're joking. My uncle and cousins live in the UK, love their humour.

What I love about British humor is that it's dry and deadpan. As for American humor, it's like walking on eggshell fearing to offend everyone.

@@mustafa-cx2fg tbf thats a recent thing.

I've been in the US for 32 years and still noone gets my humour still. It's very tiring.

Commioser

@@jeetenderkakkar7570 I think you mean LeviOsa.

I love it toooooooooooooooo

No... They're stupid...

@@gold9994 Aaw... Somebody's been hurt before.

@@gold9994 Lool yeah I’m not a fan of their humour either tbh

@@binoymathew246 what do you mean 'hurt'? It's stupid because I don't grasp funny things in it. The things that they thought is funny is not funny for me. Not that it's offensive, but I don't understand the joke, the meaning, they used lits of metaphor, many unfamiliar products/people.

Head

She's only 33 with the mind of a teenager

@@anthonytaylor7928 Only 33? 😯

It's called plastic surgery lol

@@MsYolost she just lost weight. Not plastic surgery.

They're English products made in England, god I really wish people would stop universally erasing English culture by calling everything British now.

@@jac9301 Wut. If anything it's the opposite. For everyone outside the Isles, British means English.

It's always the little things you don't realise that you'll miss until you are living, holidaying or working somewhere else (then you want them more than anything).

As an ex-pat Londoner, residing in NYC for a bit now, am too well chuffed to have discovered a marvellous place here called *Meyer's of Keswick* - where they stock bare almost e-v-e-r-y-thing (in the way of foods, etc) UK 😁...!!! ~💖

I know what store she’s talking about can’t remember the name at the top of my head but it’s the only store in LA that has everything Harry Styles has also talked about it

She kept you entertained for the whole show? It’s a concert. That’s what she’s supposed to do. 🤦‍♂️

@@fezzik7619 she was better than a lot of artists I have seen maybe if I said she was exceptional, you would get what I am trying to say

She cancelled Las Vegas due to being upset with her partner - lovers tiff, not very professional. I would never see her in concert as she talks more than she sings. She just can't shut up and I find her so irritating.

@@bingonamo7520 who would you like to see in concert then?

@@plumstead3078 Radiohead.

The UK

This was a prime example of a joke that Brits would find funny.

@@b2kzangelalwayz they didn’t even say a joke in that paragraph

The joke is that Americans always talk about how British they are. But they’re not

Doubtful...most kids don't follow in their parents footsteps when it a singer

@@faithhudson4576 True, he once told her that he wants to be a RU-vidr.

@@stantwitter2022 😂🙄 oh what a dream ... let's take the easy money I guess

@@faithhudson4576 Be a v-tuber, just need the voice!

@Daniel W 🤣

Those nails too!

Fat or thin, she is naturally beautiful! XXX

@@cajsheen2594 why is she covered in makeup if she's so beautiful?

@@meehawlcollins9411 defined standards of being beautiful, presentable and fashionable are different. Make up is used to look more presentable and attractive, I guess.

@@meehawlcollins9411 Stage make up has to be exaggerated, ask theatre people. She has been seen with no, or very little makeup, she IS beautiful, you must see that just by her bone structure. Why the sour grapes? X

Americans get sarcasm, it's just a lot of people don't get why it's funny. I'm American and I enjoy that dry wit. I use it a lot and very few people get it.

@@michaelmachupa3854 Yup, sarcasm is used in America pretty commonly, but it's rude to leave anyone out of the joke. Or at least, anyone you care to be friendly with. So when an American's new British friend drops a sarcastic joke but leaves them on the outside, the forehead crinkling isn't because they didn't understand the sarcasm. It's because the delivery is saying "I don't want to be friends".

@@AllUpOns an then you've gotta be like "Ayo Brad, i was just busting your balls home dawg. Here take a selfie of us on your cell phone and upload it to the gram"

I think it's just different humor culture, nothing wrong with either one

I only know of Ghanaian brits

ok

yeah how is her skin so smooth, its like butter

No but I THINK she's a beautiful lady and not only that, a spectacular woman.😂

@@okkcomputer Ok, what's your problem?

huh?

Hahahaha

That's awesome and hilarious 😂

Oh yeah I’ve met people from other countries who have moved to London and Bristol who have asked me why we all hate each other and why we all bully each other and they are completely serious 😂. I just say noooo…that’s affection here 😂

I wouldn't advise extrapolating the nature of 68 million plus people based on your boyfriend and his family.

@@jac9301 true, but Brits are known for humour as much as they are for bad food. I know plenty of Americans won’t want to admit that cause you don’t want to admit anything positive about us but it’s true 😂

@@EvilKris That unfortunately isn’t a good story. He cheated on me. I eventually found out. We weren’t friends for a while be we talk now with small chat. No need to hold on to bitterness right?

@@EvilKris Well thanks!

Really that’s cool, we can do something right then 😂

Yasss, I can eat a whole box of Jaffa Cakes in one sitting. Omgoshhh they are divine. ☺️

😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻have you ever heard any Scottish though? Now, that's really tough on one's ears))))

She's East London Cockney, there are many different English dialects not all as difficult.

@@relocatetoItaly you know she has NEVER lived in East London born in Tottenham, North London and moved to South London.

Was that ordinary and working class how she screwed her fans in Vegas?

@@anthonytaylor7928 you're right, caring about your employees is sadly becoming less and less ordinary every day

Humour 😋

😍😍

@@Snaakie83 RU-vid literally has a "Translate to English" link for your comment 🇬🇧

It's English humour you miss, British is just some all encompassing term to try cram every unique culture in the country under one brand.

@@jac9301 Imagine being English and complaining that your culture is being appropriated.

Compared to many accents in the UK, I wouldn't say she has a strong accent at all; it's a fairly standard North London accent. How do you do with a Glaswegian accent!? Totally unintelligible, I would imagine! Where are you from, btw?

I’ve spent most my life in a non-English-speaking country and understood everything she said lol

I'm not native but I can understand anyone from the UK. Perhaps, I'm just that smart. 🤣

In that case you'd probably like The Mighty Boosh (start from seaspn 2 though, it's a bit rough in the first season while they're figuring it out).

I went to London and Edinburgh in March. I tried Nando's in Edinburgh at the mall. It was good.

My dad still has his American accent although we've lived here in England for the past 21 years (my mum is English and I grew up here so we both have this accent). The only time I notice a difference is when we visit his family in the US and they have stronger accents than him, only then I can tell but amongst regular brits he definitely sounds like a typical American lol.

Must be something in the water there

As an American I keep hearing the word sarcasm I think people are trying to use the word droll.... We have sarcasm in the states but in the UK there does seem to be a lot of a certain type of humor. FYI I wouldn’t count Benny Hill as highbrow humor or even sarcastic.

Well considering those are all English shows made by English comedians the term British doesn't apply, that belongs to non English natives.

@@jac9301 No, British is appropriate considering 1/6th of Python was Welsh-born, as is Dawn French. Though going by your logic - is Billy Connolly a British comedian instead of a Scottish one? Is Ruth Jones a British comedian instead of a Welsh one? Is Jimmy Cricket a British comedian instead of a Northern Irish one? Why (from your perspective) are English comedians (and people in general) the only comedians (and people in general) in the UK who are entitled to be referred to by their sub-nationality?

I wouldn't openly express your love of British humour and suggest it might be because you're from an Irish family to anyone in Ireland if I were you, unless of course you actually want a lengthy, impassioned lecture on how the Irish are NOT British. 😂

@@merlinmediagroup They are entitled to both Irish and British passports though if they live in NI.
