Kinda funny. I've actually wondered about this myself, don't really know the answer though.

LOL, I like the second one on this... lol

Hehheh. Funny bit. For some reason British actors play Nazis the best.

Well, the Totenkopf (deathshead) has a long history beginning with the Prussians.

Frankly, I always thought the big one General August von Mackensen wore on occasion in WWI put the wimpy SS ones to shame.

That is some great stuff. I love that dry humor.

Dowly · 11-02-09, 01:07 AM

Ah, love Mitchell & Webb!

Luckily, finns tend to like british humor, so we get quite a bit of it on telly.

That von Mackensen - hat is pretty serious, it would make an interesting fashion statement.

I did see that one Steve. I have been watching the clips since I saw the first link. Some great stuff.

Sailor Steve · 11-03-09, 07:44 PM

No, I just wondered why no one had posted that one yet. I downloaded them a long time ago, and thought The New Fuhrer was outstanding, with Skulls a close second.

Task Force · 11-03-09, 07:57 PM

HEY!!! I did above... (note I said to look at the 2 skit!)

Sailor Steve · 11-03-09, 08:05 PM

Sorry. I'm at work. Didn't have time to sit through a 10-minute video (or even 4 minutes of it).

AVGWarhawk · 11-03-09, 08:10 PM

There are a lot of good skits from these guys. I wish they had this program over here in states. For now I watch on the net
