Loved this. All three main characters are played by such genius comedy actors. Hope one day you get to see Open All Hours with David Jason (Del Boy) playing opposite Ronnie Barker of the Two Ronnies. Genius.

2025-09-13 11:52:32 +0000 UTCI'm SO happy you're enjoying this. The show becomes it's own as it goes on. No spoilers, but prepare for some serious moments that simply make this show shine.

2025-09-07 17:55:36 +0000 UTCI always forget you guys don’t eat blackcurrants. It’s just a fruit, it’s pretty good.

2025-09-04 01:20:07 +0000 UTCIsnt it just because 1 has colour and the other has sound.

2025-08-27 20:39:07 +0000 UTCI too was curious about the cost of the phone call (4 days); Year Cost (GBP) Equivalent 2025 Cost (GBP) Equivalent 2025 Cost (USD) 1981 £3,917 £14,889 $20,025

2025-08-27 19:34:35 +0000 UTCI wouldn't mind them doing 2 shows a week but they are looking at lots of stuff so at least with 1 a week it will last longer xx

2025-08-27 18:23:54 +0000 UTCI saw a video ages ago where people from the US tried ribena but didn't know that it was concentrate, and so proceeded to drink it neat!! I'm not altogether sure whether they have squash in America.

2025-08-27 18:21:19 +0000 UTCMike gets so invested in these shows.....Bless him!
Simon Cross
2025-08-27 18:12:20 +0000 UTCyou should watch the YouTube video on why blackcurrant and blackcurrant flavoured things are almost unheard of in the USA, but utterly ubiquitous in the UK

2025-08-27 16:59:38 +0000 UTCMike and jess in the opening scene when del says hes got to get a drink for his hobsons he means hobsons choice ...(voice) cockney rhyming slang. 👍

2025-08-27 16:49:33 +0000 UTCThe best UK series ever made hands down! Loved it as a kid love it now.

2025-08-27 16:40:13 +0000 UTChonestly thats such a great question and its stumpted me lol.. i love them both equally i think. A great pair of blokes and so funny.
Itz GRNY
2025-08-27 16:38:48 +0000 UTCOk. I dont think this is a spoiler so im going to go ahead and ask. Who is everyones favourite out of Grandad and Uncle Albert? If it ends up being a spolier for Jess and Mike, then forget I asked but good discussion point.
Bobby K
2025-08-27 16:24:49 +0000 UTCYeah I'm sure it's said in one episode the black and white TV has working sound, the colour one doesn't.
Andy
2025-08-27 16:16:42 +0000 UTCIm happy waiting. Their schedule is absolutely banging as it is.
Bobby K
2025-08-27 16:12:50 +0000 UTCBack in 1981 we only had 3 terrestrial TV channels, BBC1, BBC2, Regional ITV. If Grandad had 3 TV's he could have the all the channels playing and choose which one he wanted to watch at a particular time by turning the sound down on the other 2. But because he's a daft old sod he has them both on the same channel. If the third one came back he'd have that on e the same as well.

2025-08-27 15:56:38 +0000 UTCLeaning into all the comments on the last ep about you looking like you were wearing a Del Boy outfit, is hilarious. Love that you only half mentioned it as well. Nice way to roll with it.
Paul John Jeffs
2025-08-27 15:41:26 +0000 UTCTwo tvs is because 1 has sound and other has colour 🤣 Also agree 2 per week if possible, it is a long series and waiting a week is tough for us 😁
Mark E
2025-08-27 15:38:34 +0000 UTCHave to do 2 a week!

RegenerationNationTV
2025-08-27 14:29:59 +0000 UTCI hate to disappoint, but we've both clocked a total of maybe 30 minutes in Minecraft. Yet to tame anything sadly. Need me to tame you something in Ark, then I've got you 😉

RegenerationNationTV
2025-08-27 14:24:20 +0000 UTCIt’s Pernod and blackcurrant, Pernod is a liqueur so is quite thick - Del’s cocktails are a running thing like his French phrases

Mark Rudd
2025-08-27 14:00:04 +0000 UTCI’m definitely agree with some other patrons about maybe making this 2 episodes a week :) weekly is too long of a wait to watch your amazing reactions to this amazing show. And if you’re laughing already, just wait till the iconic episodes come along. You won’t be able to breath from laughing. Also helps massively that you both understand what’s being said and nothings flying over your head
Mark Rudd
2025-08-27 13:58:00 +0000 UTCLaughed as soon as I saw Mike 😂

2025-08-27 12:52:55 +0000 UTCPernod & Black used to be my drink of choice back in the day! It was lethal... Pernod is aniseed flavour. I used to wake up the morning after with a Pernod & Black smile! It's pronounced Perno...

2025-08-27 12:46:49 +0000 UTCI only came into this sitcom at series 3, but this is excellent, watching it with you guys.
Dave Henshall
2025-08-27 12:40:59 +0000 UTCAs a young actor Lennard Pearce(Grandad)in the 1930s, joined a performance tour in Germany. According to Nicholas Lyndhurst(Rodney), one theatrical performance was attended by senior members of the Nazi Party. At the end of the show, party officials came backstage to congratulate the cast, and Pearce shook hands with Adolf Hitler. Lyndhurst claimed that Pearce said that he regretted not taking the opportunity to kill Hitler.
Josip Buretić
2025-08-27 12:36:30 +0000 UTCI agree with you Adam,I love Grandad so much
Josip Buretić
2025-08-27 12:31:28 +0000 UTCI love the episodes with Grandad. They're the best in my opinion.
Adam
2025-08-27 12:24:59 +0000 UTCI always thought the reason grandad watches 2 tvs is because the picture works on one amd the sound doesn't but the sound works on the one that the picture doesnt

James Welsh
2025-08-27 11:09:58 +0000 UTCGrandad watching multiple TVs is something he had in common with Elvis - Although I don't recall Grandad shooting any of them.

2025-08-27 11:01:46 +0000 UTCI had to start the reaction at work 🤣🤣🤣 I laughed so hard when I saw Del Boy Mike my coworkers asked me what is so funny 🤭
Josip Buretić
2025-08-27 10:58:12 +0000 UTCTotally agree. Also very important to watch every episode in chronological order including the Christmas specials!

Josip Buretić
2025-08-27 10:56:16 +0000 UTCHey Mike, at least the Bob Mortimer lookalike talk can stop now 😆 would love for u guys to do 2 episodes of this at a time during the first few seasons while the episodes are so short. Its hard waiting a whole week to see Mike's Del Boy starter kit.

2025-08-27 10:39:34 +0000 UTCMike looks more like Del Boy than Del Boy lol

William Stewart
2025-08-27 09:58:02 +0000 UTCI did the math Calculation: Total minutes in 4 days: 4 days * 24 hours/day * 60 minutes/hour = 5,760 minutes Total cost: 5,760 minutes * £2.60/minute = £14,976

2025-08-27 09:33:31 +0000 UTCO jess you lucky lady check out Mike's flat cap haha had the pleasure of seeing David jason again recently at the lowry the man is just a pleasure they say never meet your hero's but if your hero is David jason then you should meet him, and now Mike ofcourse I'll be copying that style haha.
david s
2025-08-27 09:21:18 +0000 UTCI think what you said about the laws catching up will happen! In the youtube world now, some European football leagues (German Bundesliga and English Championship) are giving youtubers the rights to live stream their games as react content. This is huge when you consider how big the illegal streaming market has been for years, now there's no need for that as youtubers will stream it all for free to the end user.
Anglan
2025-08-27 09:16:40 +0000 UTCYou're channelling Del Boy with that flat cap. It suits you.

There are many more.

Central Hub
2025-08-27 07:32:08 +0000 UTCJess you are so much quicker at working out what is going on than Mike! 🤣
Rachie
2025-08-27 07:28:04 +0000 UTCPernod and black was a pretty common drink. It wasn't thick like that, but they probably had to make it like that for the "getting it all over their faces" cute meet interaction. Also, Del is getting the name wrong (of course). Pernod is pronounced "per-no". You will get used to Del's exotic and experimental drinks. It's a running joke. Watch out for him mis-pronouncing them (and everything else).

2025-08-27 06:47:58 +0000 UTCI could be wrong but Grandad having on two TVs on showing the same thing , one has sound the other one doesn't which obviously makes no sence as you would just have the one on .

As a bonus I get to watch everything else you react to also. This show will drag you through the emotional ringer and I will be here for it. You both are so entertaining to watch. 😘 From Northern Ireland.
William
2025-08-27 06:46:04 +0000 UTCWhen I was much younger I remember going to a night out, got a bit the worse for wear, at the end of the night me and my pal were phoning a taxi from a pay phone in the pub. I remember distinctly being on the phone and saying ‘ taxi, taxi’, handed the phone to my pal who was also asking for a taxi. Eventually the 3rd pal came over as she couldn’t understand what was taking so long trying to order a taxi, when she took the handset she found we had been onto the talking clock for about 5 minutes. I think that might have been the drunkest I’ve ever been in my life.
