I had a good chuckle too! I think he should have been a bit cooler, though, and instead of pushing small child away he should have lifted her on to his knee and just carried on! I was amused most at very mobile younger sibling!

Oh I'm howling! The wife? nanny? will be worrying about her job methinks! It's the kneeling down to close the door that gets me. We can still see yooooooooooou!
Thanks for posting Meaty. You've made me giggle.

I know what video is going to be played at that kid's 18th birthday party.... Makes me wonder what parents did to humiliate their children before cameras existed. Sure, they could tell embarrassing stories, but that's not the same as actually seeing it. |

This is really fab and getting everyone talking. Someone on twitter says that the assumption the woman is the nanny is racist and it is his wife. But she seems v subservient. I can't imagine I'd not have acknowledged the situation and taken out the kids nicely. Why didn't he look at the kid? Well, from this snapshot one can't make judgements I suppose but hey, I hope his mates make the most of this.

Well, from this snapshot one can't make judgements I suppose but hey, I hope his mates make the most of this. I don't read her crawling on the floor as subservient, just the actions of a desperate woman, hoping against all hope the the camera is reasonably tight on her husband's face, and she won't be visible if she crawls in and out of the room, with the kids under her arm, like a marine commando!!!  . I suspect he didn't look at the older child, because he knew he'd never be able to continue with the interview, if he engaged her in any way. The whole sequence is just hilarious, and you just know he will never live it down, and she will rue the day she (probably) decided it was safe for her to nip to the loo and take her eyes off the kids for 3 seconds, whilst her husband was 'safe' in his study! |

My theory: she took her eyes off the kids because she was watching her husband live on TV, and had a moment of horrified realisation and a mad dash across the house when they appeared on TV with him.

You can actually hear the muted screech of her realising the kids have wandering into their dad's room, before she runs in. I think my favourite moment (there are so many to choose from!), is seeing her actually skid across the floor to a halt inside the room! Although, the little girl's jaunty march towards her dad is pretty tough to beat as a perfect lol moment! |

I've seen it so many times and it's still funny as hell. The second child is a total monster and will stop at nothing to get into the room. Thank heavens for the innocence of children. Where would we be without it.
Whoever think the father are aggressive, the woman was the maid, the wife is subservient: you're kind of miserable.

I love the end bit when the woman tries to close the door by crouching down as if by doing so the thinks that no one will notice her.
