ShortAsianGamer Actually, as a Brit I had to look this up myself. we have a device (take a shot) that allows you to make tea inside of the tank. it's because whenever we stopped in 1945 for a tea break we got out the tanks and got exposed to enemy snipers and such. it's ridiculous, but true
It goes back farther: In WWI, British machine gunners would often fire their water-cooled Vickers guns for the express purpose of using the resulting hot water to make tea. Nothing can get between the British and their tea, not even the threat of imminent death by shelling.
Darjeeling: "Look, Orange, everything that the light touches is the British Empire" Orange: "What about that dark spot over there?" Darjeeling: "That's continental Europe, we don't go there"
*In a battle, a Churchill gets hit by a shell* Commander: Oh bollocks! *The gunner looks back at him worried* Gunner: Are you injured sir?? *Commander looks furious* Commander: No lad... THEY MADE ME SPILL MY BLOODY TEA!
+JangofettAlex in a way they actually drive in the tank while drinking tea in some episodes and on the tank means on top so basically what theory I created was im a grammar nazi if I am not mistaken now if you may excuse me my good men LONG LIVE THE QUEEN
"Dear Diary. She's just been standing there drinking the same cup of tea for three days now. She won't listen to anything I say. I'm so tired, I just want to go home. I don't understand why she's doing this."
"I've been laughed at by lunatics in the wood, my plans have been scraped, our communications have broken down, our jeeps have not arrived and you really think all that can be solved by a cup of tea?" "It won't hurt, sir." ... *drinks tea* - Sean Connery, playing a WWII British officer in A Bridge Too Far film
Interceptor00X If the Falklands are easier to get to, go there on a holiday... it's much the same routine only you substitute the tank with a battleship and France with Argentina.
I'm gonna join the army and become a tank commander, and deman every tank had a tea pot along with cups and saucers for the crew I'm not joking by the way, I will be doing this
Fun Fact! Since WWII Every British tank has the capacity to make tea built in... Fucking Priorities! We got em straight! We guard our tea with fucking TANKS!
Sam Webster Its more of a water heater/steam cooker, but yeah, it heats tea. Its for emergency use and small lunches. I think some of the "Inside the Chieftan's Hatch" videos of later model British tanks will mention it.
Herbivore The Carnivore its scary british people are almost addicted to tea (Including me i liked cofee for a period then converted to tea and tea bags dont last long in our house)
The boiling vessel (kettle) is built into the turret to boil water to heat meals and make hot drinks You're automatically discharged if you spill a single drop
I knew that our capitalist comrades will so such a thing. Sad to see such valuable resources go to waist......... Rather sweeten my vodka with it then to kill the Fascist with.
"If you hear this and your on the other side your going to die". Said by an American soldier during the war of Independence. (this version sounds more modern try Barry Lyndon's version out).
Because Americans were ragtag militias with no real training, that's why redcoats (a professional army) seemed "elite" to them As a matter of fact, the British land army was the shittiest land army among european great powers in the 18th century Thus, this overrating of redcoats due to America being the current cultural superpower, is very annoying When you look at contemporary European sources, the British army was considered an utter joke Prussians, Austrians, French and Russians were the real tough guys of Europe back then
@@LeHappiste Well, the training on the Redcoats was the least of their problems half the time during the War of Independence. The brits bungled so hard, straight out of the gate. Though, everybody was a fuck-up in some way. The french never listened to their nominal allies, and spent 90% of the time they where in the war in the caribbean. Technically, we shouldn't even be thanking the french at all, sense they only really contributed to Yorktown. The main thing that REALLY heald down the brits was an anti-British coalition that included Spain and a few others.
British Soldier:NOOO BRITISH Army Commander: what happened! British Soldier: THEY MADE ME SPILL MY BLOODY TEA!!!!! Commander: MY TEA HAS *$*%%^= SPILLED OUT OF THE CUP
So British, we had kettles and tea leaf storage devices in all of our tanks ever since the Churchill 1 tank was made at the start of WW2, because Britain had its priorities straight, make a gun that can fire HE, no, make sure all tanks are fitted with a kettle, how dare you suggest otherwise!
To be honest it's a dam good idea, so much so that it was the envy of every soldier in the world bar a british tanker. Even the Americans are copying us and potting a boiling vessel in there afv.
The reason kettles were implemented was due to the fact that they would be able to remain in the tank during tea time instead of being outside the tank where they would be screwed if the Germans decided to attack. So we do have our priorities straight
Kettle = able to eat and drink inside the tank. A kettle is very easy to design, a good HE gun isn't, the BVE (Boiling Vessel, Electric) is actually a pretty good call by the British, and now the Americans are using them too.
If I understand it right, parts like Katyusha song are cut outs to make the episodes (cuz on Watch Cartoons Online there was no singing). Where can I find the full episodes?
Good show old chap!, now it is my turn to civilise there people with me good old, CHALANGER 2 BLACK PRINCE, should be a cake walk and hopefully I’ll be back in time for tea
I love how she's just standing there, drinking tea nonchalantly! Her subordinate just stands there obediently! They both look so demure and politely obstinate! "You dare oppose us? We cannot be having any of that sort of thing. Hold my TEA, I'm Regina James, BITCH!" lmao!
One of the more impressive features of this anime is their effective use of military music from all the major participants of World War II. Even though this one, "The British Grenadiers" is from a much earlier period than the War, they make it fit well. It goes well with the dainty image of tank crews that don't even let a drop of tea spill;)
TheDegraderReturns wait im welsh not Eng and since the Eng are German cross welsh and the welsh are proper brits and the Eng are the ones who 1 invaded America so yeah and 2 the ones who drink more tea then the yings!, but your saying that the brits(welsh)'s cup or mugs of tea never run out..but it will
we all ways had guns its just a myth that we don't. its a top plan for any invaders so don't tell anyone or you will get a strongly worded letter from me ;)
Nah, it lasts for only about 2 minutes or so assuming she continues to take regular 2 second sip every 6 second over the course of 9 minutes 39 seconds. but that a rough guesstimate, I didnt go through doing exact math
I did a test, and found out that you can actually make a cup of tea last nearly ten minutes. However, she must be taking extremely small sips each time. Usually, when I drink tea, I drink the entire thing in one go.
Who else is playing WoT with all the tracks of GuP? XD Nice mix between WoT and GuP playing each nation with each song. EDIT: did someone notice how much tea has that girl in his cup?
Nobody: America: Britain: Tax them- America: * tosses tea into harbor * Your move bro! Britain: * strangled gasping agonized noises *. This means war! 244 years later... America: We are a world power! Britain: * hisses and builds tea makers in tanks*. Must protec the tea! Will live and die by the tea! Japan: * sips sake * I have an idea for an anime!
I was there. Woke up the next day and first post I saw was an Ameribro saying "I've been listening to The British Grenadiers on a loop for 14 hours., not complaining". That's what I'm talking about. It was so based. You lit the fire, Britain.
I present a random story to read about while listening to the video: At the Battle of Waterloo, The Duke of Wellington and The Earl of Uxbridge had been out on the battlefield until an unfortunate event occurred. There, Uxbridge had his leg blown off by cannon fire. Uxbridge, upon noticing the lack of a limb called out, "By God, Sir, I've lost my leg!". Hearing from his second-in-command over this loss, Wellington called out, "By God, Sir, so you have!". The shattered, amputated leg was later put on display within a museum in Waterloo.
Britain: hey America America: yes? Britain: where's the tea I sent you? America: you could say we had a little.........tea party..... Britain: you dumped it in the harbor didn't you? America: FREEEEEDOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
New drinking game: Take a shot every time she takes a sip. The only other rule is that it has to be either gin or British Navy Rum. Or just anything with an English flag or Union Jack on the bottle. :) Rule Britannia. Shouting Rule Britannia every time she takes a sip is an optional extra rule.
+StringStorm Well the TARDIS can hide as anything, so maybe it is! Maybe the girl doesn't know its the TARDIS. o.o I don't think the Doctor is going to be happy about this.
+StringStorm wait...so the Tardis is full of tea, and thats why its not running out? the Tardis's best ability, transform it into a backpack and you can take...anything, you can even take your girlfriend home silently
