German stand up comedian Henning Venn’s set including English and in colloquialisms in London and Thames estuary is pretty funny. Pretty much proves how foreigners who learn English speak better English than English people who had ignorant parents but didn’t grow up on bread and dripping and little education.

We were allowed to opt out of Latin after third year, and peer pressure ('what's the point of speaking Latin?') guided me to do that. Shame, as I was quite good at it and it would have been fun 'doing a Boris' with my mates down the pub.
