Yes, this one is very long, and my hair is worse than usual. Two men who know too much about tanks talk for too long about just two tanks (with a number of side-tracks).
One annoying thing is that all the picture-in pictures illustrating what we are talking about when we are seated in the front of the Churchill have somehow been thrown out of synch and all come in too early. Unfortunately, YouTube does not enable me to upload an alternative version of this without losing all the views and comments.

A homeless and a cowboy get inside the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

"Aren't you a bit tall to be a tanker?" -Princess Leia
-
I see the problem, guys. You are 1/72 scale and that is a 1/76 scale tank.
-
These two could honestly do a weekly television show together and I guarantee you 90% of men would watch it
-
It’s just two experts correcting each other and very passive aggressive arguments
-
"I've been pulled over for speeding in my tank" Isn't it the most badass thing you can say?
-
18:43 "look at this wasted space! somethings gotta go here!" "F I F T E E N T I N S O F B I S C U I T S"
-
"The top speed of this vehicle is literally under the speed limit, I can't be speeding in it."
-
Two fish are in a tank. One turns to the other and says "do you even know how to drive this thing?"
-
"A cheap tank simulator would be a small fitted kitchen inside a telephone box, on a trampoline, next to a motorway." -Lloyd
-
I suspect the only requirement to be a Churchill tank crew member would be to be born a midget with a penchant for self harm
-
Me: Where would someone even piss in there? Lindy and Chief in Unison: SHELL CASINGS!
-
The dialog between a historian, who knows this stuff academically, and a military officer, who known this stuff practically and through training as well as academically, is very interesting.
-
An Irish man and a Brit stuck in a small space? This will prove interesting
-
Chieftain has a strange combination of accents.
-
"If the armor was slanted then the porthole would be staring into the sky." That may be the most British thing I have ever heard lmao.
-
I always love the polite tension of two expert/enthusiasts testing their knowledge against each other. They aren't setting out to do it but talking about things in detail just necessarily leads to it and they politely try not to disagree with one another.

> Tank museum That is a strange name for Lindy's garage.
-
"Stinking haven of human afinity." Sounds like submarine crews.
-
Was waiting for one of them to say “oh bugger, the tank is on fire”
