Tactless Woman: Deaf | The Catherine Tate Show | BBC Studios

Funny how here in Israel this situation would not be awkward at all. Not for the deaf and not for the tactless :)

how do you say am I bovvered in sign language tho

Film? 😂😂😂

Catherine Tate and Miranda Hart-perfect double act!!!!!

Love her!

She isnt using sign language, she is using a mix of influences from mime and charades

Genius

Film 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Ally's character makes me feel like I'm the smoothest talker in the world lool

She's so cute in this!

When she says 'pyscho?' she does a pretend stabbing motion with her hand..😂😂

"Mh?"

Omg that’s so funny

I'm the tactless woman :/

"Hello" Dramatic wave of the hand. That is how I am going to introduce myself to strangers in the future.

I'm a lot like her and I even have almost the same name and when situations like that happen to me, my friends also don't say anything or pointedly change the subject, making me feel even more embarrassed :(

Brilliant see it before the left loony balls have it removed

Back from the days when the BBC licence was actually worth paying for.

She actually signed I, now and Bed correctly. But that's it

We always felt annoyed with the character who reveals her mistake and just stands there awkwardly. They could at least laugh it off a bit haha

That noise she makes at the end of the clip is the best part!

I believe the entire blame goes to the man in the middle. It’s all his fault.

Oh god I love this. It’s comedy. Satire. Something that’s now banned. Get a life, laugh it’s not meant to offend. Fabulous fun. I don’t think Big Brother approves

Psycho XD

The little stabbing motion after "psycho". Absolute genius 🤣🤣🤣

I swear she just said something super offensive in sign and I need to know!!

Lmaoooooooooooo

🤣🤣🤣 as a deaf person this is accurate 💯

Are we meant to be mimd readers

Shouting loud doesn't work, l am visually challenged but being a musician helps to get other people's attention.
I want learn basic sign language , our education is devisive.

This is also How non verbal Autistics get treated! Great message here….

Only 30% of English can be seen on the lips. So really his hearing friend is also offensive.
By the way, the gesture Tate did for “now” is actually very similar to American Sign Language’s sign for NOW. :O

I’m surprised the liberals aren’t screaming “ this is offensive to deaf people because we represent and speak for them”. Whatever happened to common sense where we just Had a laugh.

😂😂😂😂 "Psyco" hahahahhaa

Irish sign language is definitely different than American Sign Language.

This sketch isn’t even inherently offensive to deaf people, it’s mocking insensitive people with these attitudes towards them.

Lol deaf guy breaking the fourth wall when she makes pseudo sign language

She reminds me of one of the reluctant guests on Something Special. Justin Fletcher will effortlessly sign and tell the kids in the audience "and this is the waitress, Karen! Hello Karen!" And she will stiffly sign back like Catherine Tate.

This is so 😊 cute..

Love her translator skit!

Funny and original 🤣🇦🇺

I really love her empathy and how she deftly tries to put herself in the shoes of freaks and abnormal people.

Katherine tate sexy face

This is the only time she actually apologises instead of making excuses.

Catherine's sketches are multi faceted in the truths they show:
She wasn't wrong to think it was charades.
She genuinely tries to communicate as best she can, having been made to feel embarassed. This is a bit like English people speaking loudly to be understood, in a foreign country.
The guy in the middle has done a classic Brit, which is to point the finger and then conveniently let her dig herself into a hole, whist doing nothing to help. Only inflame.
The deaf chap is being a precious and entitled disabled person, thinking everyone must know, and accomodate his deafness. Magically.
CT is a genius with her well observed comedy.

Easy mistake

This woman is literally me with my asperges as a teenager lmao

She is so cute
