Anyone looking forward to Season 6? I quite enjoyed peaky blinders season 5, is peaky blinders season 5 on Netflix yet? It is on Netflix apparently. If anyone knows of a season 6 trailer let me know! Has the cast started filming for season 6 yet? How will Tommy react to Oswald Mosley plan going tits up? bit of a blooper! Red right hand by nick cave, what a song! what a soundtrack! huzzah! maybe I should cover it, oh wait I already did!
As you guys know I’m a big fan of Peaky Blinders, the cast, haircuts, whiskey, hair, outfits, hats, you name it, I like it. Thats why I do all the peaky blinder cast impressions (even the women!, Ada and Polly!), birmingham accent and all (or not in some cases).

@@isaacmehrban7281 one
It truly is amazing! I just hope he makes longer impressions.
Why would he do an impression of himself?
no one can do morgan freemans impression better than himself. that like saying a fake iphone looks more original than the original one.
it's one thing to do a voice impression but putting their words / voices into real world scenarios is the best part of his act!!! bravo sir...bravo!
Dude, you're killing it. Came for the impressions, stayed for the jokes.
Thanks!

If i could imitate morgan freeman's voice i would never go back to my original voice Xd

Hell yeah lmfao
I read your comment in Morgan Freeman's voice for some reason lol
Lol
It's gonna be a real comic with your accent.
That Morgan Freeman impression is absolutely surreal!
You are just so flipping phenomenal! Those voices are so golden and each voice sounded so crisp and clear.

I second this. Got goosebumps hearing Arthur.
@@chrisdacaveman7103 No one is better then the actor. He is so perfect it's insane
That rapid fire part was so good. You didnt just make everyone laugh but even the person on whose expense the joke was being made. Heavenly impressions obviously!!
So I stumbled on Jay Pharoah a few days ago and have been binging on his videos. I swore he's the best I'd ever heard. I'm now thinking that I've just heard another impressionist who is just as good! Bravo gentlemen!
Lemme tell you i CRIED when he did the Alfie Solomon’s impression for his Bane impression 😂👏🏻

Nah. He did Tom Hardy in every movie, per the joke he made previously.

From this yank who’s grown up with Morgan Freeman’s voice, this guy nailed it 100% No one better on the planet other than Mr. Freeman himself. Well done!
Superb. Laughter that did me a power of good. Wonderful impersonations that were all pulled together with hilarious threads. Loved it!
The hand movements he did while talking like Tommy Shelby were ON POINT.
Oh he absolutely murdered each one of those
i noticed that too! the hand thing he did was typical tommy :D

My god, he's absolutely spot on. Incredible.
I'm speechless how you could talk like Thomas Shelby.. wow so authentic
I love that this dude's not only a great mimick, but how he also incorporates them into his jokes without just standing there and doing voices.
The Bane impression where he just muffles his mouth and says "ufuckinwotm8" was spot on.
Compared with....?

@@ominious7082 9:30
Totally agreed! You’d probably love Azerrz btw, he’s awesome too!
I love doing impressions. People find it hilarious, especially when you get into the character, make facial expressions like them.
Bloody good and the crowd interaction adds to the performance!❤
I thought the only one that could do Morgan Freeman was the man himself. That was unbelievably spot on!
Reggie Reg does a great Morgan Freeman.
Yh almost.
My dead grandmother can do a better impression than this guy.
Very enjoyable. He's got something a lot of impressionist don't have. A personality.
Charlie also proves that Morgan Freeman impressions can reach "new highs".
Just A personality?? More like 300 of them.
@@jackm4457 What he probably means, is that other impressionists imitate other personalities to compensate for the lack of their own. This man has his own personality plus others.
Hey! Ross Marquand
@Olof Thorn Idk, pretty much all famous actors who make impressions on talk shows are also pretty funny people
Such an amazing talent … the Freeman and Attenborough impressions were fantastic
His Attenborough was NOT on point
Great humor and so talented by far best I've heard. Thanks.
That Morgan Freeman voice really was shocking how he nailed it.
That one and the Jesse Pinkman impression were spot on.
Yes Morgan freeman one was stupendous! This guy is brilliant!

I would've loved to be in this experience, everything about it was amazing. The comedy, the voices brilliant
You can probably have him over for your b-day party to entertain your guests (that is your mom, your aunt Cecilia, and your cat Mittens) for £50.
AWESOME. Love Morgan Freeman and Sir David Attenborough 👏. Your team on-stage was also very helpful and funny as well. Especially the bell ringer. 🔔. Keep up the excellent work.
"Someone hasn't seen Game of Thrones" His impressions are good, comedy is even better!
I bet you he could do a hood Hannibal Lecter from silence of the lambs
He nailed it and could've made it more epic if randomly while attempting an impression around the end turn around and just ask "why have you not seen Game of Thrones?"
This might seem random but Jesus loves you and times aren’t good and we need to rely on Jesus to guide us because we see corruption everywhere and so much sin and corruption everywhere. Relationship over religion. Jesus is a prayer away and just because you haven’t had an experience with Him doesn’t mean He’s not real :) .
Yo Legit ahah Dafuck Was that Jon Snow ? 😅 Obviously didnt watch GOT
Not everyone has lol I've not saw a single minute and am OK with that lol
The Peaky Blinders one was brilliant
Yeah
*mumble mumble* fuckin *mumble mumble mmm more mumble* fuck off!

The David Attenborough is spot on 😅
Loved your Attenborough and Freeman, Thanks!!!!
When he did Bane but it was just Alfie solomons covering his mouth, I lost it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's 2 am and I'm dying trying to keep it in
Me too! 😂😂😂
RIP to Robin Williams. I love that people do impressions of his iconic voice. Gone but never forgotten. Wonderful impressions, Mr. Hopkinson.
Indeed. Most definitely not forgotten.
Never. Was sadly a troubled man but amazing as well. God rest his soul
Always in my heart.
Let us all remember and honor his favorite role, which is said to be "Dr. Malcolm Sayers in Penny Marshall's 1990 film Awakenings" We thank you Robin for all the happy experiences you gave us, and we want you to be happy at peace in heaven enjoying your eternal life there. ♥️
NGL: That first misdirect totally got me. OMG that end bit with the bell and audience member on the microphone was comedy genius! Dude is going places.
the fact that it was all unplanned made it so wholesome.
You have to call Tom Hardy and pretend to be him.
Got his number?

YO BITCH!
Thats church yo!
YEAH MISTA WHITE, YEAH SCIENCE
I'm glad to see a Muse was present at this comedy evening! The comedy of the team you made was perfect, complete with someone who couldn't ding the bell.
The "Bane" impression just made me actually laugh aloud! Love it!! Great stuff. Amazing impression of Robin too.
His Jesse Pinkman and Morgan Freeman impressions are UNBELIEVABLE WOW
😀
even Gandalf was on point
I was very impressed with his Christoph Walz, that guy has very unique inflection and rhythm to his speech. Well done.
The Morgan Freeman was incredible, and a great punchline.
Definitely - possibly the best I've ever heard!
@@robertcronin6603 Agreed! Is it possible to sound more like Morgan Freeman than Morgan Freeman!!?? Spot on!
Not bad for Yorkshire’s 5th best ;)
its from shawshank redemption
Agreed👍
Great job I needed that!!!
that was Monte Python great. The best part was the straight man reading the list. He said, "I don't want to", and I fell over. It was seamless. You two just flowed right through. Brilliant!!
I can’t believe how good that Morgan Freeman one was… The crowd is unworthy
Pity though that the rest of the voices sounded more or less like Morgan Freeman - plus imitations of people I've never heard of. No, I haven't watched a single minute of GoT.
The crowd didn't appreciate it that's for sure
Yes indeed, awful crowd
You blow him too? That was not that good..at all
Unworthy? Hah drama queen.
"Ty - Rhian Lannister" "Someone hasn't seen Game Of Thrones" 💀💀💀
Next! Its pretty much the same! NO ITS NOT ! hahahhahahah
yea I sticked as clear away from that show as I could, I couldnt let the insanity of george rr martin to corrupt the better fantasy of JRR tokien edit: to be completely honest I posted this to piss people off and it worked, I personally still don't watch got, but I'm not out here trying to say it's horrible because I've seen some of the VFX and it looks pretty good better than some shows I am currently binging (flash)
@Ad Hominoid ok
I'm not here saying g.o.t IS BAD but it's not my style of fantasy tales, the books ngl they were good, and g.o.t is far from being the best sound fx Godzilla 2014 is currently the all-time best sound design ever still sad that Godzilla KOM 2019 couldn't beat the sound design of 2014
TitanBeats how would you know if the sfx is good if you didn’t watch the show lol and he didn’t say it was the best, he said it was Some of the best
the guy that went up literally made the crowd die with laughter 😂😂😂
To have this man as a TEACHER..?? Would’ve been pure school heaven. Brilliant!!
Girl: I like your voice. Charlie: Which one
Lmao
😂😂😂 lol
😂
😂
The Tom hardy bits had me dying. He’s so comfortable on stage. Morgan freeman impression is unreal
Can you imagine having this guy as your maths teacher? - My favorite learning experience was the short summer program of preparatory courses for Music School; all taught by the same teacher. He would stop class and do impressions, and tell jokes, getting us cracking up in laughter, whenever he would notice we were slumped from our brains bursting with information overload. - It was marvelous. It really made a profound difference in our learning process! I’ll never forget Ted Green. The most fabulous teacher I’ve ever experienced!
The Owen Wilson impression was perfect.
Every performers dream is to own the audience. This guy nailed it.
Well, I enjoyed
but his peaky blinders voices were 10000% accurate
he is super amazing at all of them i always liked his impressions for 3 years now :)
Is he living with you, staying on your couch? If he's been mooching off of you for 3 whole effing years already, you should ask him to get a flat of his own.
Lol, great job buddy, i could never understand someone with a great talent like that, it is rare talent!!
jesse pinkman was ON POINT and also the black panther one wheezed me off
Everyone: amazed of how many voices this guy can do Me: amazed of how stoned the guy next to him is
not stoned, I just hate when they pick "random" guy from public....but besides that nice performance
Nah he aint man obviously
@@mkphyro i mean none of us have any real way of knowing if he is stoned or not, being stoned is not as obvious as people think it is (being a pot smoker myself) it can be a subtle as laughing at a joke you would normally just give a small chuckle to or being better at a game then you were before, or just plain out being really good at something all of a sudden
@@TitanBeats what kind of shit are you smoking? when i'm stoned i get worse at things. it literally kills your reflexes. until that triggers an adrenaline rush and my heart starts popping out my throat. but then the high is over and i just kill at whatever i'm doing and need to smoke another one. try playing apex legends while stoned, and tell me how that works out.
@@Z4J3B4NT i do... but i don't like BR's that much, I play rainbow six, Titanfall 2 and modern warfare high all the time. you're tolerance is obviously low asf, and I smoke OG kush and Blue mountain.. most of the time.
Man what a great crowd and what an unbelievable proformance
So clever. I wish I knew someone who was funny. If you laugh every day, you will live long and prosper.
It's not about just impressions but the sense of humor is incredible !
Hmm.Okay.
No one’s talking about how spot on the Tom Hardy impression was.
Ehhhhhh ya fckinwhatmate
The callback later for bane was hilarious
i’m kinda stuck on De Niro
Bro, You're Awesome. No one ever done this shit. You nailed it.
This was genius. The impressions are already amazing but the natural comedy of the guy reading the names and the girl with the bell tied it all together! Great stuff ! (:
“Arthur... the children are scared of yous” 😂 🤣
this guy can convince morgan freeman that he is talking to God while using morgan's voice
Absolutely brilliant!

The full package, I was enthralled by this set. Properly entertained!
Everyone is talking about how he did great at Thomas and Alfi, but no one noticed the fact that he killed Morgan Freeman's voice..... JUST Woooow man
You nail each impression perfectly but goddamn Alfie Solomons is the best for me🤣
