... a German point of view, of sorts. I apologise up-front to those who abhor reading a post here that contains the meat of its argument in a link to another website, but: There is really no way to summarise this short piece of comedy, presented by a German comedian performing on-stage in London's Hammersmith Apollo Theater in front of a live audience back in 2015 - before the ill-advised Brexit referendum vote the following year. I rest my case, yer Honour...

I told you already some time ago that Henning Wehn is an idiot. I haven't changed my mind. At present, Germany has some brill comedians. Wehn is definitely not one of them.

@pgntwo It tells me a lot about the Brits. Nothing about the Germans. I've already elaborated about the Brits' obsession with Nazi Germany. Wehn lowers himself to their base instincts and gives them fodder

@MALUSE He certainly aims for the lowest common denominator, and still manages to get below that!

@pgntwo It certainly does lead one to ponder the vagaries of cross-national humour.
