This does be deserving a pin 😂😂😂

Mary needs a measuring service. That is not her size.

Was the embarrassment due to the fact that you had to shop for lingerie or the fact that it was a Mary McCormack bra? Anyway, great visual joke, thanks for putting yourself through it!

At least you didn't get lost in the lingerie department Father Ted style!

Did you get the giant lacy purple knickers at the same time?

Fair

But wait, if they wear socks all the time, they could somehow find a way to harness the electricity coming off the carpet!

@@SamFAHntha well, if nothing else, they might keep warm from jumping when they get an electric shock from it 😉

My mother wrecks me head with "CoLsE the DoOr" every winter and she's damn right. Lol

I am thinking at the energy they are producing by running all around the house...

Just use it the Japanese way and always sit down, that way you never need the light on!

"No excuses!" 🤣

Not a bad idea to be fair

@@louiseegan497 I never put the light on for nighttime trips to the 🚽 just makes it harder to get back to sleep

You understood the assignment perfectly.

Instructions unclear school radiators not heated due to saving measures. Please advice.

Yes I got you!

No problem Jenny, without you fine folks over lockdown, it would have been very tough for us

@@foilarmsandhog 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺Well hello boys ... glad to see you back again ! Thank you for all your great skits during covid. Missed your show in Portsmouth in 2019-2020 ? The posters were still up in late Feb - to early March 2020. Came back to OZ just before our borders were closed ! Escaping out of OZ soon to UK and Ireland. Do you have an itenary for stage shows from Oct ?

Thanks Cris!

He definitely should have

Showering with a lad sounds fun... Until you realize some of them are uncivilized wild animals who pee in the shower

@@theninja4137 it SOUNDS fun, sure. But it depends on how roomy the shower is. It can get kind of cold if you’re the one not under the shower head. Lol

Yeah absolutely!!

@@matthewparker9276 omg it is 😂😂😂😂

That is a great deal 😆

Haha

Thanks Sue, great to be back!

👋👋👋👍🏼😘

whole Europe is affected.

It's the whole Europe and the reason is Ukrainian war. Russia is protesting against Europe cutting trade off. So they are cutting the electricity supply. (simple explanation!)

there is a energie crisis in whole of europe strange that you dont know this

until hog starts to grin :D

We always sat on the radiator (the girls) until we absolutely burned ourselves and then the next one would sit down. By the time they were in pain, the others were cooled down and cold again, so we switched. A painful but effective way to stay warm that winter during lunchbreaks. Also we hung pur coats on the one opposite us (other side of the canteen) and the girls that were busy cooling down, would get the coats of the radiator-users and switch them. That way you could give them to the others when they stepped off and they'd get your coats. There was a system.

Where I said pur coats, it meant to say our coats

haha, I got them so good.

Yeah same. Iconic

Do you mind if I ask how much more expensive electricity is in Ireland now? I am not a European citizen...Is it really that much now?

@@CloudNumber23 I’m not completely sure because my parents are the ones who pay for electricity but they said they have noticed a difference since the last bill and it wasn’t a good difference

@@rebeccacasey8496 I see! Thank you 🌺

@@CloudNumber23 it's energy companies screwing over the people and the governments just let it happen So disgraceful, useless governments. I thought there where systems in place to prevent companies from dictating ridiculous prices but I guess not.

We love it because of that

Only 11? Huh, that's interesting! All of them brilliant though

Wow, that's a long time between sketches!

Your stats are great. 👍 Do you do this for other channels? I think there's a market for this.

@@zanussidish8144 haha not yet, but thanks!

They just have to give us more McCormack sketches!

He's either very studious and taking all sorts of extras, or he's falling behind and doing a lot of resits. I fear given the chaotic, unsupportive nature of his home life it's the latter.

GOOD GOD MEGS

That's insane, wow!

@@SamFAHntha I feel like my family took the water restrictions more seriously than most

@@theonlyenekoeneko I remember a photo if this, from the knees down, in an article on an Australian drought in the National Geographic decades ago. It passed through my mind when I watched this sketch, actually.

@@andrea8764 it was my only reality for most of my life! We got very used to it.

They have no shame either so they'll survive

That was the part that made me laugh and groan at the same time. I know an alarmingly high number of people who would consider that a very reasonable way to save money.

Plus, as scientists, you know that the same amount of energy is used to raise the temperature of water, whatever the method.

This reminds me of a Jimmy Carr joke about the logic of buying a breadmaker when the shop across the road sold bread for pennies xD

The UK’s former Prime Minister actually suggested this on his last day in office.

@@suecole4723 aah, but some kettles take ages to switch off once they come to the boil, whilst others are very quick. I presume that's where the efficiency saving comes in.

It's a French farce with Mary and Anne adding extra salt every time the other isn't looking. By the end you can barely see the ham. 😂

Excellent!😃

Yeah, here some university dorms are already banning heating devices 🙈

I smell Revolution seasons coming up in Europe 😂🤣

Eh, not so much in the US. Still 13 cents per kWh here while the UK pays 34 pence (37.6 cents) per kWh. I know Germany is worse though. We're gonna get as much LNG to you guys as we possibly can. The UK are our Brothers after all.

@@janus3555 yeah, but four times more expensive as it is for you.

Imagine yelling through the wall to turn their AC up/down haha. The AUDACITY of it.

IIRC Arms does the subtitles. As least he’s the one answering comments here.

@@sweetsandcharades8383 He does yep, Hog does the subtitles 😊

It's so funny 😂🤣🤣

Yeah, you guys pay WAY too much for electricity. In most states, it's 13-14 cents per kWh which is a stark difference from the UK at 38 cents and Germany at around 40 or so cents per kWh. It's kinda ridiculous when you think about it. Hawaii has the benefit of not requiring much AC and no heat, but 38 cents per kWh still hurts badly. Benefit to cheap power is because we have nuclear and an abundance of cheap LNG. While Europe has an issue with LNG, Nuclear is something they should have invested in for the last decade.

I'm sorry for laughing but 🤭😂😂😂

Haha! Yes! He'd have no shame walking an extension cord to the window too 😂

It could be heard as so dirty 😂
