The British sense of humor...

How can you not find their humor funny!! I think it's the best humor in the world. Quite sarcastic but that's what I like.
While I lived in UK I use to watch Jonathan Ross on friday night, that guy really makes me wet my pants..I find their humor so real, not pre meditated. Same as most prgrammes, so realistic and no woman with make up stepping into bed, like in American series/films.

I don't know anything about the Swedish humor but there must be a world of difference with the British...

Yeah you're right, there's quite a difference between it (at least that's my opinion). But funny to see how different the opinions about humors can be!
What's the Dutch humor like? ;)

Hey hey, Dutch humor?! Uhm, let me think....It depends where you coming from in Holland, I guess. But people from the west have the best humor, in my view. Bit of sarcasm, very dry.

Tell me a bit more about the Swedish humor,please, because I have NO idea what that's like!

Hmm quite hard to describe! Maybe it's only me in Sweden, thinking that British humor isn't funny.
I cannot say how the Swedish humor is in general, as even within my circle of friends the humors differ quite a lot. Maybe you have to come to Sweden one day, travel around and find out by yourself ;)

theres lots of different humor in england... you should try dom jolly, his is funny and you dont really need to understand english that uch to get it! also i think peter kay is really really funny but thats because it related to the way english people are....asking what time it is at home when they are on holiday....doesnt everyone do that? also ther is ali g/borat! thats really funny and sasha barron choen..if i spelt it correctly is so clever for acting so thick! lol

what programshave you been watching? and what do you think of the french humor! for me its quite obvious and not very funny but then agan there is one comedian i like francise lambruglar...defo not spelt that correct but he is funny...but then again maybe its just because i am english and find that funny! i dont know humor is weird isnt it?

hi clare well i never did back to manchester. yes lo jo its really credit crunch here. however maybe only for some.my life has been one long credit crunch so i wont notice. i lived in toulouse many years ago. i was there for eight years.I worked as an aid and companion to an elderly french woman and an assistant to an editor which actually involved making coffee tea delivering brochures and photocopying and tidying about. i think they thought it was novel to have somone english about. I also worked in airoplane factory or somthing like that architects drawers panel beaters. I used to prepare lunch for twenty people and i spoke pidgeon french and served terrible food im sure. but to them i was a novelty. I dont know if you know much about french culture but mention louise de funes or johnny haliday jaques brel . all old acters dalida singer. alan Deloin.jean Gabin. anyway mention them and you will have the french in raptures of nostalga exscuse spelling. the price of heating is sky high here .food has gone up in london dont know about manchester. I like how the french at least have a bit of spirit regarding their own crunch. chow from a whinging pommie. theresa london

yerr overheard quite afew whinging here but cos my french isnt that up to scratch i really dont know the situation, think it is bad lots of people are being sacked etc! but its the same most of the world over! hurrr!!! nightmare for when i come home then... new apartment sky hiiiighh heating bills... and ill be skint! oh well! .. ill try and remeber some of them names and look very cultured hehe!

sounds like you had fun here and made the most of.. the way it should be! hope the sun is shining in ye old laaandon!! lol! claire

Yes, I also like the new series of little britain - goes to america.

The British versions of television shows - for example Whose Line is it Anyway and the Office - are much, much funnier than the American versions. Even many Americans agree with me on this! It's a little more depressing, but then it makes you happier about your own life. Cathartic, like Aristotle says.

English humour is great. I think it is clever (at times) and very witty!

The British sense of humour is great, but it did take me a little while to get it haha.
