As someone who grew up in Cwmbran, I am not in any way offended by Sanja's pronuciation, and I also learned a very interesting fact. I didn't realise there were that many roundabouts.
Love MK. This isn't a funny anecdote but as someone that uses the hospital a lot the city's grid system means that whenever there's roadworks there's always a way round, doesn't bring the city to a standstill unlike most places.
I did enjoy the poor man's matrix cosplay at the start.
I'm going to Milton Keynes on Sunday. I will confirm or deny all that has been said. Who am I kidding? I will confirm ALL x
I want to know more about Sanja's life lesson about the berries and if they too are related to the illuminati
Different by Design, indeed 🙂
I love those delivery robots. I've seen them quite often in the past when trucking around Milton Keynes, and also in Cambridge and Cambourne. As the latter is a new town with lots of pavements and cycle paths, they work very well there.
Bush of Milton Keynes…..think about it….the gulf wars….it all makes sense now!
going to milton keynes to get annoyed is cheating! everyone who ends up in milton keynes is annoyed to be there! also please get san to make you do the jump thing more often!
Funniest video I've seen in a long time 😂 I live in MK and still found out a lot. Great work guys!
if you think MK is strange you should see Cumbernauld
There was this thing, about 30 years ago I think it was, called Digitiser, that had a thing on it sometimes called "The P D File". Curiously suspiciously similarly to this channel's name and this feature's name, "Digitiser" and "The D Files". Really Makes U Thenk. I've thenked a lot about this but I don't see the immediate connection so I'll be presuming it was aliens what done it and nothing will ever change my mind xoxo
It's nes not en-ee-… Never mind.
I used to work and socialise in Milton Keynes, a good place but I'm glad it is the only place like it.
The grid system makes the place seem bland and is easy to miss your turn because all of the main roads are just the same.
Nowt to use as a landmark to help you navigate.
Breeze block town.
Theatre district is good for a night out.
14:32 You can eat yew berries. The poisonous bit is the seed which you should just spit out.
There's some archival BBC footage where they pronounce it Milton Canes, but I see that didn't really last as an idea.
Ha – love that the Birds Aren’t Real movement has got to the point that it’s making it into Digi videos.
Cant believe you forgot the Aztec Zone in the intro!
Have Conde Nast been in touch yet?
As a Milton Keynes local for nearly four decades I can confirm that everything you say in this high brow documentary is true. I have seen two owls. One flying near some trees and one on top of a lamppost. PS. The classroom in Superman 4 is my old science room. Also on 8:40 regarding the signpost to the left of the screen: it’s funny that you could smell shit there, as I once got caught short and had to squat in the bushes below that post and violently spray molten brown sauce out of my arse. And I like the taste of WD40 too.
How do you not have more subscribers!? Your content is so good! <3
Themed around zones, residential, commercial, industrial and the Aztec zone
I like how this vid stared with Mr biffo looking ilke he going to ask me if I wanted the blue or red pill
Biffo and Sanja being somehow better researched and more believable than the actual conspiracy loons is amusing and also makes me realize how low-effort the lunatics are. They need to up their game.
Butterball in a wig tours Milton keynes then Mr Biffo took over getting all the celebs these days. Lol the sudden smell of shit as Biffo went on about his 'facts' was perfect.
There is no illuminati.
"Quim Bran"? I think i might like that cereal 🙂 Oh and the "birds aren't real" was started as a joke to excite conspiracy theorists.
I didn't know that fact about Midsummer Boulevard. My aunt and uncle used to own an opticians on that road.
Genuinely checked the lawnmower/monk incident as I can almost never tell if Biffo is having Sanja on or not. Probably my favourite video in recent months – thanks guys!
26:05 – Sanja accidentally made a very good metaphor about conspiracy theories.
Siddhartha Gautama is the original Buddha. Sanja is right about "Buddha" being a title (meaning "the awakened", apparently).
The "fat Buddha" is a Chinese monk nicknamed Budai who is venerated as a Buddha in Chan/Zen Buddhism.
This video makes me want to play a '90s-style point and click adventure in which Biffo and Sanja investigate strange phenomena, but constantly get distracted by whether or not one of them can smell shit, and find their investigations constantly stymied by the presence of a shirtless man doing stretches in the middle distance.
This was hilarious! I’ve also never known anyone before who can’t say “owl” properly 🤣 Btw, birds don’t need to be hidden cameras – there’s already plenty of normal surveillance cams everywhere in plain sight
