Police Didn't Like This Alan Davies Joke... | Unforgivable | Dave 

You can be happy for someone and humiliate them at the same time

Not really. British comedy is very much built around self-deprecation. Anyone arrogant enough not to be able to laugh at themselves does not last long in the profession. Its why comedians tend to be left-wing or liberal, despite what the Daily Hate claims. It's a profession that naturally attracts people who don't take themselves seriously.😂

Probably only a little bit. I mean it's not that different to actors. One day your lover might be your enemy or your mom the next. Then if you marry an actor and work on the same thing as them it can be twice as weird... This is just remembering the set and playing in character.

how will they find "wEiRd"a thing that is quite normal in their professional life?

A total prat more likely!

@Jade Leoncio and yet isn't given the appropriate Capital letter of A in Alan. I'd understand if it was a jimy savill, or r🤮 harras, or nonce andrew or dunghole chump, or borarse cockson & all other oxygen thieving vermin, but Alan is definitely deserved of the respect the Capital letter asserts.

@@zuluwarrior1648 are you still stealing oxygen?☹️

@@distantcoff7391 no, but Alan is !

@@davidwaddington9414 Alan is what?

I got pulled over for speeding once and the officer said I was doing 15mph over. There was no way that car could do 15 over driving up a hill. I took it to court and the judge said "I have the same car and I drive up that hill everyday. There is no possible way I could get my car up to 40 on that hill. Dismissed"

Way back in 1965 I was a pillion-passenger on my mate's Triton , on the M6.. We were doing just under 100 m.p.h., and were slowly overtaken by a bloody Midlands Red Coach...This was prior to the 70 mph limit being imposed.. Happy Days!

@@iansediting Cool story...

It would be less funny... Also I think the mindset is to keep a danger off the road... So letting them leave and immediately get back on the road does seem a bit counter productive.

The courts have never been an organization to save the average person from a hassle; quite the opposite, in fact.

Well of course that's the reason they have speed limits... You have less time to react and it takes longer to break otherwise it'd make more sense for us to drive as fast as possible 24/7

Hes very funny but hes spoils it when he laughs at his own jokes

I mean in fairness, it was supposed to be a story that cast's him in a bit of a bad light, (Not TOO bad), but that was the premise at the beginning of the video. And he did also preface that this was on a stretch of road where there weren't any other cars around. So is it the smartest thing to do? Obviously not lol. But it's not exactly on par with weaving in and out of traffic like an asshole at 90+ miles an hour during the day because you think you're more important than other people. Come on, tell me you've never done or even thought about anything vaguely irresponsible on a long stretch of empty road... Maybe not 108mph lol, that's a bit much for me, but I remember my dad playfully swerving on backroads when I was a kid when there were no other cars for miles, with crazy voices (It was fun, you had to be there). (And no, It wasn't endangerment, he was perfectly in control of the car at all times, he's not insane lol). 🤣

Because there's nothing wrong with it. A driver doing 100mph in appropriate conditions, in a well-maintained car, paying attention to what they're doing is not a problem. Another driver doing 69mph in the rain with bald tyres, whilst eating a sandwich and filling out their expenses form is a problem. The thing is that bad driving is hard and expensive to police, whilst speeding motorists are easy to catch and profitable. So the state has cynically tried to make speeding seem to be the problem instead of bad driving so they can cut costs and increase income, and everybody knows it so there's no shame to be felt in getting a speeding ticket. Does that about cover it?

@@K1lostream i mean, you're right, but if something were to happen, say like an animal was on the road, or there was a pot hole or something then him speeding could result in a very bad thing. unlikely of course, but i wouldnt say that going 100mph is definitely safe even if you know what youre doing

@@K1lostream - it's been a couple of decades, but I was pulled over as I was exiting the freeway. The cop said he pulled me over for speeding, and asked how fast I was going. I told him I didn't know, because I was distracted by a maniac weaving through traffic in my rearview (him). I told him I would testify to the judge to that. This was in the area of a particular judge that held the police to a higher standard, and I would likely be dismissed and the cop would get a butt-chewing. I was sent on my way, no ticket.

Honestly, I agree. I don't really find this amusing. And if I personally had the power, if someone drove away from court after just being banned from driving, they'd be wishing they only got a further 18 month ban.

110?

Thought you all used the metric system. Don’t let us bring you to our level

​@@stuarthorrocks4781 Well caught.

@@myname-uc6gr Not on the roads, for some reason. We're a mishmash depending on the specific circumstances, and because everyone over the age of about 35 was raised by people who vaguely knew the Imperial system, metric's never entirely taken root.

It shouldn't.

hilarious! can a car go as fast backward as forward? i've never tried

@@cecilebraillie4471 Not as fast, but bloody quick!

So, like a menu?

@@nocalsteve depending on your bank account,yes.

they kinda are just guidelines

Yawn.

You’re welcome! (Sorry to hear about the toilet accident)

@@UAndDave Well it probably had very little to do with a toilet.

Method acting.

maybe that's not illegal in England

speed limits don't do anything to reduce fatal accidents. Fact.

yes they do. Fact.

on the M25 at night when there was no one around?

Series 3 coming soon 😊

Mel is not a good host... anyone else please...

@david waddington false? Do you imagine them as transgender people?

@@distantcoff7391 what are transgender people ?

@@davidwaddington9414 have ewe herd of google? Look it up. You're the one accusing 4 women of being false. What's a false woman ewe distant whit? Look whit up while you're looking up transgender, wick dod.

Would it still be from the time I was born if I was older than him?

Who’s Davis?

Wrong.

Who's Davis---his name is Davies. He is consistently hilarious. He is very quick and I enjoy him very much.

So your logic is: you see a video that clearly states Alan Davies is on it, you click, it reminds you you hate Alan Davies' guts, you write a comment saying as much. Ok. You might need help.

Okay unfunny we can surely concede. I'm with the majority who find him hilarious... but comedy is subjective to an extent, so whatever. But false? What do you think he's doing, claiming the gospel? He's a comedian you plum, he tells jokes.
