Ha! That is pretty fantastic. But yeah, anyone who hasn't seen the Clio ad might not find it as funny.
Yep... I uh, I don't get it. Someone mind explaining it?

I have no idea why but this had me in stitches, just the constant barrage of bacon 'n' eggs the accent or something esle entirely, but it slayed me. As an Aussie I haven't seen whatever ad this is based on and I don't care.

I'm glad people are enjoying it. We feel this video is more viral than our other stuff so are encouraging people to show it to as many people as possible. :)

Ssshhhhh... BACON AND EGG.
Brilliant. I throughtly enjoyed that. Particularly the two guys on the train who were obviously your mates, trying to stifle their laughter as you yelled "BACON AND EGG" in public.

Hah, that was great. I'm not in the UK and I don't get the "bacon and egg" joke, but I still laughed because the delivery was funny anyway.
I like bacon and eggs.
Meh. I've never been in England. Have been in France, though.
It's all a bit exaggerated, Paris has a lot of hobo's, dirty streets and scammers.
Still, nice video.

Thanks for the feedback :)
Roffle and lawlerskates. Srsly, that owned. I didn't get it, but I assume that it's good ol' fashion British humor. Although I WOULD like to learn the actuality of it's origins.

I laughed the whole way through. I was asking myself "Why the hell am I laughing? This is the eighth time he's said it now." but just couldn't stop laughing. I do think you should've done more British stuff though. Maybe just having bacon an egg was the joke though...
The best part was the Shhhhhakespeare bit done with Shhhhbacon an egg. I bet you didn't really tour round London, but it was pretty convincing
EDIT- 1815 Bacon n egg, what the fuck?

We properly did tour round London! It was agonising. There are loads more landmarks we didn't put in as well. We went to the Gherkin, Buckingham palace and also filmed in a red telephone box.
Anyway I'm glad you liked it :)

Hahahahaha.
A+
I also liked that behind you each time you could see a landmark, it just added to it.
Lol was a little confused at first understanding my speakers where full blast =O!!! But this did make me laugh.

Thanks for all the positive feedback. Pity it ain't taking off anywhere else. Anyone got any ideas for publicity?
