Thanks Jed, that means a lot! Can't say I've read Anderson, do you recommend?

Jed

Have been reading Perry Anderson's recent on WW1 while following the series. Always cool to see name popping up here that I've read there, and vice versa. Great work as always

The solution is to take the British pill and never see the dentist at all, I have had zero root canal's with this method (zero teeth either, but swings and roundabouts)! Glad you enjoyed the video, hope all goes well!

Gotta go the dentist for a root canal in the next few days but another upload makes me forget about that, great work as always!

Arguing that school children would become retarded if they lived in Britain is most french thing I've ever heard 😂. This was perhaps the funniest video so far in the series. OB the dryness of your humour is spectacular, Can't wait to have the full video of this series

I shall cite this video in my negotiations next time I play Diplomacy.

02:28- Christopher Clarke making a dubious argument that benefits Germany? Never 08:39 -Lives in the UK for 20 years, refuses to speak a word of English. Absolute peak French right there. 09:48 - I love the idea that Edward VII was just trying to compliment that actress because being the sex addicted ladies man that he was that's just what he did to most women he met but he accidentally pulled off a diplomatic masterstroke and endeared himself to the French public.
