Video: German version of the Daily Show pokes fun at the British

Sausage-fest

Nooruddean Choudry

It’s always interesting to get a taste of how we’re seen in other parts of the world – even if we don’t always like what we find…

The perception of Brits on the continent seems to be one of entitled celebrity-obsessed contrarians, judging by this clip from Heute Show.

The popular German answer to the Daily Show features a sausage-based board game in which the British always manage to get their own way.

There is also a humorous dig at our obsession with the new royal baby and a propensity to look back at a glorious past, rather than forwards.

Who said the Germans can’t do humour…
