couldn't take him seriously it was so cringy lol, the deathstare to the camera in full army gear, the look at me I'm charge I have my hands on my hips pose the whole way through, and the ultra posh voice with more plums at the back of his throat than Jacob Rees-Mogg. I honestly thought it was some sort of spoof.

Am inclined to agree...who on earth suggested he should do it.
Makes me wonder whether the army top brass is the preserve of a few 'select' inbred families who can trace their lineage back to the middle ages. These people are never seen or heard of in life outside of the military. |

maybe the troops treat their officers as a joke or fakes
and that is why two high profile incidents of out of control troops have surfaced in the past week. the army top brass broadcasting on youtube is a bit odd too |

The double teapot is hilarious. Hard to watch it without smirking.
He says he can't comment on the specifics but then goes on his rant. |

Hard to believe somebody in authority looking at this and not saying, “Awfully sorry, chaps, but I don’t quite think that this does the trick.”

I thought this was a spoof until I realised that he actually exists. I would have preferred if the speech had been made by the major from Fawlty Towers.

The self righteousness is appalling. Goes on about the standards of the British Army. The same army that said yes to Tony Blair...

He looked too weedy to be taken seriously as authoratative, the constant sudden raising of the voice to emphasis key words then the sharp drop was also amusing, would also have been better to have some barracks as the backdrop rather than the BBC studio.
