  1. A tolhurst parody for Shaun Keaveny's 42nd birthday. DJ Hitler is 42 and his faithful nshse Matt and Feuerbrigadefrer Phil Schmidt are trying to get him to go to Dirk & Jgen's DJ school before Hitler is too old. Note that Downfall parodies are a way of poking fun at evil Nazis in a 75-year-old tradition and it is not suggested that any real person is a Nazi. Even if someone was thinking of the TV Licensing Centre in Bristol, they would, of course, not say so. The visuals and dialogue for this fair use parody come from the great film Downfall (2004). As for the outro music: Shaun's listener spends the show hoping to hear the Star Wars theme as that always signifies the end of the show. This version is by a flashmob in the pedestrianised streets of Cologne made up of the WDR Rundfunkorchester. Seriously, Shaun's show mixes deadpan wit with bin kicking and great music and is my favourite morning breakfast show. All good things come to an end, so I trust Shaun will do the show for ever.

  2. and that the invasion is starting without him. A tolhurst parody. Hitler has overslept again and no-one dares do anything until he is awake. The Normandy Landings of 6 June 1944 have begun with a wave of expat Brits complaining about immigrants who don't speak the language, and it's getting hard to find anyone who even speaks English nowadays. As they check into local hospitals, the Brits will exchange stories of EU health tourism and how those people have been coming over here without paying their taxes as they pay cash for an extension to avoid those stupid meddling foreign rules. Hitler asks Koller whether the Luftwaffle has driven the invaders back into the sea but it transpires that Ging has done a deal with Eisenhower under which the Stukas do not attack in return for the opening of McDonalds all over France. Krebs tells Hitler that 70 years later Germany will again rule the French economy. There is no McDonalds at Arromanches but there is at the Brittany Ferries port of Ouistreham (Caen) and at Bayeux, the first French town to be liberated and visited by General de Gaulle. It is now 70 years since D-Day. Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_Day "Allied infantry and armoured divisions began landing on the coast of France starting at 06:30. The target 50-mile (80 km) stretch of the Normandy coast was divided into five sectors: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword Beach."
  3. A tolhurst parody. Downfall Hitler is probably a racist, and his geography is crap. The bunker next door has become vacant, and he wishes to check that his new neighbours are not Romanians. Five hopefuls are introduced by Linge, four of whom give a home town which is not in Romania. Downfall Traudl gives her details as "Alexandra Maria Lara" from "Bucharest" - IMDB says that these details are accurate for the actress -- and stupid Hitler presumes that Bucharest is in Devon rather than the capital of Romania. This proves that the Romanian can be the best choice and it would be racist to say the opposite is always true, as per what Nigel Farage has subsequently said. The following background inspired this parody although no real person is portrayed by any of the usual Downfall characters. Even Alexandra Maria Lara is a leading * German * actress! "UKIP leader Nigel Farage has been criticised by politicians over comments he made about Romanian immigrants. Mr Farage said he thought people would be concerned if a group of Romanians moved in next door. Labour leader Ed Miliband said the comments were a "racial slur", while Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg said the remarks had no place in modern Britain."

  4. Maybe the strangest thing is when Himmler (centre) started singing group "The Comedian Harmonists" with Speer (ya) (second from right) - he got thrown out of it for being Jewish. Which is odd for the Reichsführer-SS when you think about it. Ausgerechnet HIMMLAH!
  5. Looks like Grawitz is never off German TV, though I don't recall seeing him. There can be a moment when you are looking at a minor character intently and thinking "I KNOW that face!" like postwoman-stalking, pet-killing Burgdorf, Egyptologist Burgdorf or down-and-out East German computer programmer Jodl... http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0388522/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1
  6. Thanks to Krebs (keyword "fish"), that parody also features on an aquarium site via the German site! http://aquatic.animalhealth.org/article/hitler-findet-heraus-dass-conchita-wurst-den-esc-gewonnen-hat
  7. YouTube used to give the address of the sites where your parodies are embedded and I found sites including Frankfurt's "rate-a prostitute" linking to parodies. For my latest parody about Conchita Wurst, however, I was surprised to find around half my views were from Germany, and it looks like they're from here! http://www.testspiel.de/hitler-erfaehrt-dass-conchita-wurst-den-esc-gewonnen-hat/278448/ Incidentally, there is a site which automatically registers all videos which mention "Hitler" for anti-semitism monitoring purposes. A useful index of parodies, which can't have been the intention! http://www.anti-semitism.net/hitler-2/hitler-is-informed-about-conchita-wurst-winning-eurovision-video.php
  8. A tolhurst parody. Hitler is informed about how well Conchita Wurst did in Eurovision. Conchita is a bearded cross-dresser from Austria, which is a country stupid Hitler fails to recognise, just as he will not accept that the face of Downfall Hitler is Swiss actor Bruno Ganz in the Wig of Rant. Hitler's not that keen on the dress code, either. Hitler is no fan, so he did not join Günsche and the others in the bunker TV lounge and fish store to see the contest, but you might think his reaction were a parody.
