"I left my bloody briefcase in the bunker. It's got the Joint Intelligence Committee papers in it-and the nuclear codes." "Where were you sitting?" "Between Iran and North Korea." "Oh." "Think I'll just leave it."
AAHHH!!!!!!! Send the aid back for it! SEND THE AID BACK!!!! Aaahhhh!! (He wouldn't be the first vain diplomat, and he won't be the British one I very much fear)
This is exactly the same vibe as making a massive jaw dropping slap back, flouncing out of the room, only to remember that you left your phone there 😖😱.
Yep, that whole bit didn't really make sense. Iranians don't dress like that anyway. Plus, the aid mentions North Korea, but they don't see to be there.
"He also spoke some pseudo-Arabic: "insh'Allah"." I believe that means "God willing" in Arabic. Like, I think it's real Arabic. I could see a Muslim using the phrase, even if Arabic isn't his first language. But why they were dressed like Saudis...well, come on, this was written by the English, they can't tell those ethnics apart.
Mister Guy - You’re right on all counts. I think Iranians pronounce it more like “en-sh’allah” but the Farsi he speaks is correct and with a darn good accent. Either that actor is REALLY good, or he’s Iranian, in which case he would know that Iranians don’t dress like that (but an acting job is an acting job).
Excuse me, can I ask you a favor? I can't understand what (in first sketch) the Prime Minister has forgotten in the meeting room! [Sorry, I'm not english! :)]
+Johann Gunnarsson. Hey mate. Did you write your original post after a heavy nights drinking? I've done this and then had to trawl my way through my original post to find out what I was thinking at the time, on account of some rather less than polite replies. You have my support. +Sithor: Well, at least I got the joke.
My favorite part of this is that the American president and who I believe is supposed to be the Chinese leader are not setting the heads of the table, or are listening to the United Kingdom prime minister, or they actually signed an agreement like that.
I suppose whoever calls the meeting gets the head of the table, and it appears to be the PM's project. The fact that they signed it is part of the gag though; he achieved a miracle and then discarded it so not to be embarassed!
That first one about global warming was way to real and hit way too close to home that I wasn’t sure if I found it both hilarious or horrifying. I think it’s both.
