"The day I killed a thousand Fuzzy Wuzzies". It doesn't mean animals, it means men of the Hadendoa tribe in Sudan, who the British fought in the 1880s.

Nickname not knickname. It's a phrase where the "N" slid from the article to the noun and was originally "an eke name" (eke meaning "other") which became "a nickname"
The "Fuzzy-wuzzies" often gets referred to in the WW2 set comedy series 'Dads Army', where old timer Corporal Jones often talked about his time fighting them in years gone by. And also referring to using his bayonet on them, he would utter his hilarious catchphrase "they do not like it up em sir, they do not like it up em!".

I remember “They don’t like it up em” line from Corporal Jones. No wonder ‘Dad’s Army’ has been cancelled despite it actually being a really funny classic comedy. King Boomer seems to think it means a type of animal though. It’s a old derogatory term for human beings that live in Africa not Fuzzy animals that live In Africa

@@oli3437 Actually, "Fuzzy-Wuzzies" wasn't originally a derogatory term for Africans. It was a nickname for the soldiers of a particular Sudanese warrior tribe, referring to their distinctive head-dress worn in battle and visible at a distance to the opposing army. Not derogatory at all - any more than referring to the "green berets" or "blue bonnets" or "red hackles" or "Mohawks". (I'm not saying your great-uncle Jim didn't use it as a general derogatory term for all Africans, but when Corporal Jones was at war, it was just a nickname for soldiers of one tribe in the Sudan, who happened to be fighting against the British.)

That's funny because Fuzzy Wuzzies is how Australian troops would refer to Papua New Guinea tribesmen who helped them in WW2, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzy_Wuzzy_Angels.

I just love your reactions to these pieces, KB. It cracks me up, like I'm watching them for the first time. Something that you may well enjoy is "Norbert Smith- a life", one of Harry Enfield's early works It's a mockumentary which brilliantly lampoon's the Brit film industry from the 1920s to the 80s. It is on KZread, but not so easy to find, and generally is chopped into sections.
More relevant than the US Bison was the US Passenger Pigeon which in the early 1800s had an estimated population of at least three billion birds, yet, by 1900, none survived in the wild, in fact a special 'shoot' was organised for the last known flock which consisted of around 250,000 birds - all were killed ! The very last one, died in captivity around 1914.
To answer your question - I believe a lot of these sketches are from the Harry Enfield & Chums show
I love his take on the old WWII Ministry of Information film shorts. Bob Danvers Walker was the voice of the time (he can be heard in the Army cinema showing piece in the 1958 film Dunkirk) and Harry has that straight laced voice down to a tee. As to the one American voice at that time, no-one comes close to Quintin Reynolds who decided to stay in London in the Blitz against the wishes of his bosses. His voice is that of the documentary short London Can Take It which can be found in KZread.

Reynolds was brilliant, both in his writing, and his sang-froid delivery. Voices like his were great morale boosters in dark times.
Agree Rab C Nesbitt is funny but sometimes i struggle with his thick glaswegian accent and i'm Scottish so god knows how king boomer would get on.😂
Fuzzy Wuzzies were the Beja Warriors from the Sudan who we fought in the 1880's but it eventually got used to describe any black person who had unkempt hair.
Merry Christmas, King Boomer, Queen Boomer and Princess Boomer. 🥰🎄🧑🎄

Happy Christmas to you all, the show was Harry Enfield & Chums. Cheers from UK - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Enfield_%26_Chums
These characters were also used to advertise Mercury Communications, which was the first major "independent" (IE, not British Telecom) telecoms company in Britain. It used to have really cool modernist phone boxes.
Merry Christmas to your whole family, thankyou for keeping a smile on many peoples faces!! xx
Hi, I'm personally from the uk & used to watch this show, it's called Harry Enfield & Chums.
"That Mitchell and Webb look " is a sketch show with the peep show guys they do similar sketches about WW2 also The Armstrong and Miller show do a great sketch with WW2 pilots chattin modern stylee !! ENJOY
Merry Christmas, I don't comment much but I have been watching for a long time, I have noticed a difference in you both since you became parents, you might not see it, but its heartwarming
I literally was thinking about the GTA VI trailer when you mentioned being in Florida surrounded by alligators and then you said it yourself 😂
I recommend Harry Enfield - Mr Cholmondley Warner on The Working Class
I went to primary school in Wales in the 70s and we read a book about a boy called "little black Sambo". We even had paintings of him on the walls of the classroom.
Harry Enfield initially did Harry Enfield's Television Programme, and then later Harry Enfield and Chums, both with Paul Whitehouse and Kathy Burke, then Paul left to do the Fast Show. Harry, Paul & Kathy also did Kevin & Perry Go Large! I strongly recommend the Mr Cholmondeley-Warner sketch on Diseases of the Mind (kzread.info/dash/bejne/qqCqlaRqYJqegKQ.htmlsi=WKAuvzxTWBCEzJZk)
Merry Christmas Muppet, Mrs Muppet and of course Mini Muppet!! The programme was Harry Enfield and Chums, check out the "brown baby" sketch!!!
Harry Enfield and Chums is the programme its from. Amazing comedy sketch show
Harry enfield and chums was the program that had all these sketches on. Later he did ruddy hell is harry and paul
Hope you react to Harry Enfield's: Kevin Becomes a Teenager. It's the perfect video to prepare yourselves for when your kids turn into teenagers lol

Fuzzy Wuzzy was a name the British soldiers gave the African tribesmen they were fighting against in the 1800's, it was based on their hair.

We had a sit com here called 'Dad's Army' if you are not familiar its about the Home Guard, during World War II.. it was manned by older men and young boys. Its hilarious. One of the old veterans in that comedy was Corporal Jones, an old soldier from the Sudan war in Africa. He would occasionally go on a stupid rant, lol, and shout 'those Fuzzy Wuzzies, they don;t like it up em, Sir. they don;t like it up em' meaning bayonets. that is how most of us of a certain age in this country are familiar with the granted racist term by todays terms.
Big up Croydon...the Airport was actually on the Purley Way, 3 minutes away from where I used to live in the UK 💪
The programme was ‘Harry Enfield and Chums’ which was a sketch show with Harry Enfield, Paul Whitehouse and Kathy Burke.
3:22 before WW2, Croydon Airport was the main airport serving London.
Have you seen their one about "Conjugal Rites", plenty of others too from Grayson and Cholmondley-Warner. Pretty sure they're from "Harry Enfield & Chums".
I once watched a black-and-white silent film from the 1920s. I think it was about The Charge of the Light Brigade or the Three Feathers or similar. At one point a caption comes up that says something like "there are thousands of fuzzy wuzzies, we're surrounded!"
His program was called Harry Enfield and chums.
Merry Christmas 🎅 and a happy new 🎉 from Nottingham uk 🇬🇧
The Fuzzie-Wuzzies were Muslim Africans in the Sudan who fought for the Mahdi against the British during the war in Sudan in the 1880s. They grew their hair in wild bushy springs and I think it was Rudyard Kippling who came up with fuzzy-wuzzy. If you want a quick introduction to the Anglo-Sudan war watch the film Four Feathers of which there are at least five versions made since the 1930s, or Gordon of Khartoum starring Charlton Heston.

I might get some Christmas poppers this year.
Merry Christmas King and Queen Boomer from Birmingham UK👍🏼
Merry Christmas you three 🎅🤶👶
Look at Harry Enfield and chums .. lots of mini skits :)
I think that, like 'Harry and Lulu', these were sketches within the 'Harry Enfield and Chums' series. Real pet alligators?! This conjures up images of feeding time with the family seated inside steel cages, passing 'not-so-cuddly Alistair Alligator' his Christmas turkey at the end of a very long pole. A very Merry Christmas from Oxford, UK! By the way, as you like these 'skits', if you can find it try an episode of a series called 'Ripping Yarns' (old upper-class British slang for excellent [ripping] stories [yarns]), which was written by Michael Palin and Terry Jones of 'Monty Python' fame. The episode in question is a spoof on life in a late 19th century 'public' (i.e., fee-paying) school. It's bizarre yet hysterical.
Merry Christmas Brian, Queen Boomer (Callie(?)) & Princess Boomer (Adrienne (?)), from Dougie & Lisa, living in Frome, Somerset, England.

Dude, you have no idea: a British high-up guy living in Africa in the early days installed a machine gun in his back yard which was overlooking a large valley. He absolutely cleaned out massive amounts of animals which happened to come into the area.

Britain was fighting the Fuzzy wuzzies in the Sudan in the 1880s it was the nickname given to the sudanese tribesman at the time because they had huge Afro hair,it came back into British culture because of the TV series DADs Army in the 190s and 70s
Burglerize is not a word,if your house was broken into its been burgled by a burgler .

Having the surname of Warner, i inherited a nickname after this character was invented..
If you go back and watch the Inbetweeners work experience episode, you'll notice the garage boss Jim keeps calling Will "Cholmondley-Warner" in reference to this character
