HENNING WEHN INTERVIEW: GERMANY'S 'COMEDY AMBASSADOR TO THE UK' There is a song in the repertoire of England football supporters entitled "Ten German Bombers". Mimicking the structure of the nursery rhyme "Ten Green Bottles", it is a triumphalist anthem in which the number of Luftwaffe aircraft depreciates by one in each verse, as they are shot down by the RAF. "I always wonder," Henning Wehn likes to remark to British audiences, "whether they sing that in Coventry. If they do, it would seem to be somewhat inappropriate because — I don't mean to boast — but we flattened the place." After which, noting the mortification that invariably afflicts some audience members when they hear this, he adds: "So who's got no sense of humour now?" http://www.newsweek.com/germangermanycomedycomedianperformer-604543 | |
