I thought the American 'version' was

Re: All the way from the States.

Actually if we are doing tongue twisters try this one - it took me hours of practice before could say it out loud without being rude.

Poor Mrs Hunt, has a funny cut punt. Not a punt cut funny, but a funny cut punt!

Re: All the way from the States.

Oh I thought he meant Mrs Brown was from the States, if it was How much oil could a gum boil boil if a gum boil could boil oil, that was about here when I was a child. Do sort out the confusion Michael please. Life can be very confusing.

Re: All the way from the States.

Apologies

I should have said 'A BBC Irish Sitcom all the way from the States'

I am amazed that they appear to enjoy it with all that colourful language?

Mrs Brown's has been a surprise success - winning a Bafta for best sitcom and gathering up to eight million viewers on BBC One.

She is a foul-mouthed Irish mother who is played by Brendan O'Carroll a 57-year-old man.

To make matters more confusing his real-life wife plays his TV daughter, his TV son's wife is acted by his daughter, and his big sister is his neighbour and best friend in the sitcom.

The tongue twister was mentioned in the telephone.

.
Another popular tongue twister - You have to say it very fast
.
she sells seashells by the seashore!
