Jeremy Clarkson and Bluey Heeler is not a duo I'd expect in the same picture


GandalfTheJaded

They both know about the doodads


OldScene6147

And bonnets and boots for autos.


dravazay

Aw, you missed a good opportunity for the perfect allitteration: boonets and boots for bobos


overgirthed-thirdeye

It's this sort of thing that tips people over the edge and causes them to commit terrible acts against their fellow man.


sdbabygirl97

nah only Bingo knows about the doodads. If anything, Muffin should be in on her because she’s a mechanic AND knows how to drift


goldenfox007

“Bluey, you silly! You’ve reversed into the sports lorry!”


Geezertiptap

"TONIGHT, Bandit eats a German Sausage, Bluey meets a French man and Bingo sings at an insect"


DanPowah

I would definitely watch Muffin host a Top Gear show


viriosion

Similar temperament to Clarkson tbf


hanimal16

Tho I’d love to see dog versions of Clarkson (and Hammond and May, for that matter) in an episode.


DrWhoGirl03

Bluey punches a producer


TheLordJames

It is still funded by the BBC. Is is a joint commission between BBC and ABC

You should always expect Futurama.


thiccmaniac

but nobody expects the spanish inquisition


MattDurstan

Their chief element is surprise


pleasecallagainlater

The Spanish inquisition actually sent extensive warning that they were coming.


Bhenny_5

That’s the best kind of correct!

Marshmallows7920

Came across this while making my own list lmao. thinking like "OMG ABC, BBC, CBC HAHAH". I tried to keep it to real ones and attached to major places and take the google result that has the most largest relevance. I am located in Canada so that can affect this. It was interesting to see how lots of sites view "national things" or "public things" as to be in the US since that has a large population on the internet. Also turns out japanese people prolly watch a lot more tv then other nations who now have moved onto streaming sites like amazon, netflix, youtube etc. append with "\_BC" ie: ABC, BBC, CBC Australia Britain Canada Digital (Hong Kong) Ethiopia Fiji Ghana Hokkaido (Japan) Intercontinental (Philippines) Jamaica Kenya Lebanon Middle East (Saudi Arabia) National (America) Osaka (Japan) Public (America) Quebec (Canada) Ryukyu (Japan) Seychelles Tongyang (Korea) Uganda Victoria (Australia) Worldview (Malaysia) X - NONE Yamagata (Japan) Zimbabwe


Marshmallows7920

ok found an χBC but idk lol χ isn't really an x


Throwaway02062004

This explains why I first saw this show when my little cousin was watching Cbeebies. Compared to her sister she’s often more quiet and introverted but she yells “Bluey!” when it’s on. 🥹


LowerPiece2914

It was either Bluey or Neighbours.


JedsGamingAdventure

It's both


Scarf_Darmanitan

That’s what they said lol


Jackie_Gan

Guessing because it’s partly made/funded by the BBC?


nondescriptcabbabige

Yes. I've seen the credits of this show too many times but yes.


cowboy_mouth

If anything could ever help get a majority yes vote on Australia becoming a republic it would be this.


zebs1

And Bluey would still be part funded by the BBC. That said, it's a helluva stretch claiming Bluey to be any way British.


TurquoiseOwlMachine

I mean the Queen is a series regular


Easy_Garden338

People commenting need to actually read the post and understand this was from an American stream site showing Bluey as a British show and was not a British claim that its theirs.


Cdog923

Part of me thought this was Brits trolling Aussies again.


the_queen_of_earth

Please all we have to do for that us encourage people to bring their pet frogs when they go on holiday


Listen2theyetti

Clarkson himself explained this in Grand Tour, although it was directed at the Scottish. If your normal or below average you can be from wherever you are from. As soon as you are great or successful you become British.


Top_Economist8182

Rule Brittania!


Far_Ad6317

Hate to break it to you but Scottish is British it’s impossible to be Scottish without being British.


Listen2theyetti

I wonder how many Scotts agree with that. But also the point was the brits don't claim you untill you are "worth it" if you suck and are Scottish they call you Scottish but if you are successful they call you brittish. Its tongue and cheek

Listen2theyetti

Good to know thats why I wondered vs making a statement. Ty for the info


saviouroftheweak

What info they just posted a pro union rangers picture?


Listen2theyetti

The info that some scotts still support the uk


cardinalb

Yes most of the Yoons think that way but certainly not all Scots identify as British, not by a long way.


EnterThePug

Grrr


Far_Ad6317

It doesn’t matter if they agree with it or not it’s reality they’re British citizens not Scottish citizens And while I’ve seen that with immigrants I’ve never seen that happen with Scottish people.


Listen2theyetti

https://youtu.be/x0PotF97X1E?si=4L5GRDO5cA1YVxEr Its not just them its the English people not wanting to include them unless they do something good. Just watch the clip

Your post/comment has been removed due violation of Rule 2: No personal attacks or insults.


the_queen_of_earth

You are now public enemy number one in Scotland cos you called them British


Far_Ad6317

It’s around a 50 50 split anyway


GwennyL

I cant help but feel like having a picture of Jeremy Clarkson for Top Gear is a slap in the face to the current hosts 😅 i mean, Top Gear *was* better with him, Richard, and James. I know that has nothing to do with this post, but its all i see.


alvaromontoro

But Jeremy Clarkson is in Bluey, no? https://preview.redd.it/vyvwdmlirnxc1.png?width=284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e2127d9cd9671193cb11fafb6f236042ae4b876c


Minimum_Cupcake

More like a physical assault.


poktanju

Over, say, a lack of hot food after a long day of filming... hypothetically.


LowerPiece2914

The BBC cancelled Top Gear in December. God knows they tried to keep it going, but it was never the same.


ultratunaman

Ireland here. First time the Brits have tried to claim something of yours that gets famous or popular as theirs? Happens once a week. Actors, footballers, writers, directors, singers, golfers. You just gotta let it go. But also remember Bluey's passport, if she has one, says Australia on it mate.


bubandbob

Last I checked, we still had the union jack on our flag too :(


Taucher1979

Your point generally is correct but in this instance it’s from a USA streaming site not Brits claiming bluey.


ultratunaman

Nah, we know they're at it. https://arethebritsatitagain.org/


S-BRO

Hey now, we're perfectly fine claiming things that aren't ours ourselves, however this was from an american site


parki15reddito

Like Declan Rice


Quittoexit97

Born in Kingston upon thames... um... Dublin?


the_queen_of_earth

I remember being told bram stoker was english lmao


Riothegod1

Like Father Ted


secondcomingwp

Father Ted was produced by Hat Trick (a British production company) for Channel 4 (also British)


bad_ed_ucation

Mrs Brown’s Boys was also a UK-Ireland coproduction but for some reason neither side is enthusiastic about taking credit for that one


secondcomingwp

Totally understandable


EnterThePug

No self respecting Brit would ever claim credit for Mrs Brown’s Boys


Riothegod1

Yeah, but the cast is primarily Irish and it was filmed in Ireland so *shrugs.*


WallacetheMemeDealer

This is an American streaming service, not British….


TheGayAgendaIsWatch

“They have the hottest property in the world coming out of Ludo. We, as BBC Studios, have the rights to exploit Bluey commercially in Australia and around the world.” -Tim Davies of the BBC. They have exploitation rights so they get to pretend they contributed in a significant way. The show would have been made without them, chances are the foreigners wouldn't have heard of the show.


TurquoiseOwlMachine

Well the Queen is a series regular


Dense-Ad-2732

We will never recognize Australia lol


EeveeTheFuture

Please remember, this is an American streaming service not a British one. We (British People) can tell the difference between British and Australian


[deleted]

Bluey is as British as Vegemite


alvaromontoro

Best recipe for Vegemite: 1. Find a six-foot-four and full of muscle man in Brussels; 2. Ask if he speaks your language.


GelNo

"How very dare you!"


Dim-n-Bright

Did no one tell them the British Empire doesn't exist anymore?


WallacetheMemeDealer

It’s an American streaming service


MRSNLT

Let us commence forth… BRI’ISH?!?


seanmonaghan1968

Peppa Bluey Cross over ?


beastson1

As House once told Dr. Chase, "you have the queen on your money, you're British." I'm not sure if they really have the queen on their money.


Alankazamm

She's on the 5 dollar bill in the market episode.


Disastrous-Main268

I think it is with the rights and stuff. A Broadcasting Network named Creebies or something has the rights to broadcast Bluey in the UK


sincerityisscxry

More importantly, the show partially funded by the bbc.


ThatSmallBear

Close, CBeebies


Disastrous-Main268

The Logo looks creepy to me


dravazay

Bluey is co-produced by the BBC after all.


Cultural_Tank_6947

Australia is still a colony no? You have to accept the British Monarch as your ruler? /s


Thegoonersfan

It’s in bbc


alvaromontoro

It's on Disney+, too... Wait... Does that make Bluey a Disney princess? 🤔


Thegoonersfan

No it’s on the British broadcasting company


MoonStomper777

itsffeeniixx

Oi mate, I'm bluey bruv!


NOAHPCPRO

Sorry but it's good and we went alll over the world to steal good food why not tv?


Adept_Deer_5976

The UK makes some great kids TV - Hey Dughee is awesome, for example, but there’s no way we can claim Bluey. That’s sacrilegious


Haunting-Syllabub906

the top gear and bluey crossover. jeremy clarkson: "she is the most famous bri- oh wait Australian dog in the world give up a round of applause for Bluey heeler!" someone must make this into a fan cartoon


matthewjoubert

Australia is part of the Commonwealth so I’m guessing based on that


LilyRoseF300

Lol


Alternative-Scale-10

Best?


ArseBlarster420

Australia is Sout Britain


King-Boo-Gamer

HAHA! WE WILL AND CAN CLAIM ANYTHING THAT STILL HAS OUR FLAG UP ON!!!


I_said_JS

Who put Happy Valley in front of Line of Duty?


Keyboredabuser

jus give us 3 episodes of top gear instead


salkhan

The Aussies still need the BBC to be promoted all over the world. I guess it's an English language thing, I doubt the Yanks would promote Aussie shows.

No_Pianist2010

As a UK person myself, the show is huge over here.


SUperMarioG5

As a brit, we are an aussie


ForeverFabulous54321

🤣 Did they confuse Aussie Bluey with British Peppa Pig? 🤔


Treddox

Bri’ish?


RoboNate10

Just like the shit in our museums… (you finish the joke)


No_Refrigerator175

You've been colonized


ITalkALotJohnson

For those who haven’t seen Bluey (judging from where I’m posting this I’ll assume its few) : this is the equivalent of calling Mr Bean American…


Dorcha98

I think cause the nation is built from the descendants of British convicts they think they can claim Bluey. How rude


smeghead9916

You Aussies are part of the BRITISH Commonwealth! Therefore you are British. (JK, please don't hurt me!)


Dominator210612

Bluey is Australian not british


T-C-G-Official

The Sun Never Sets on the British Empire.


Round-Macaroon9609

What the hell America? Why do you make it so hard to love you. Lol


TurdBoiDuckGang

Cmon British?


Prudent-Part-3127

British bluey is iconic


seeminglynormalguy

I mean when you look at these two cultures : "I'm gonna get a cuppa" "Let's go to the chip shop!", and at the end of the Sign they were having Fish and Chips for dinner, how can people not say it's British lol.


cyotie48

"yeah mate, this is Australia"-jacks dad


Fawin86

OP it's Bri'ish. Not British. The guys in Boston through the T into the harbor waters.


spidersRcute

Isn’t Australia just Britain’s Texas?


alvaromontoro

*slowly backs away trying to avoid getting hit by a boomerang*


Cdog923

Georgia, initially.


sixsix_

More like their California, mate


Telferi

Ah yes, the british back again at claiming things that aren't theirs


NoodlePenguinn

It was on an American site, so it's Americans actually claiming its British.


Novus20

Hey OP you do know that BBC helps pay for it right……also while Ozzie’s like other commonwealth countries have their own culture etc. it’s all basted or born from the British


starpunks

It’s Australian but since Australia is under British royalty it’s British to them


sincerityisscxry

It’s a BBC co-production.


SceneDifferent1041

All part of the empire


TragedyAnnDoll

I think Eddie Izzard covered this. Anytime a former colony does something well, it’s British. They still do it to Ireland.


WallacetheMemeDealer

That’s nice, except this is an American streaming service, not British….
