John Oliver gleefully mocks UK's over the top reaction to Queen Elizabeth II's death: '10 days in forced mourning'
to win his seventh consecutive Emmy this month for Outstanding Variety Talk Series, Oliver admitted that he hates award shows and it “would have been nicer to see you literally anywhere else on Earth,” comparing the event to a “royal funeral without a dead Queen.”
With that line, they were off and running with commentary about what Oliver clearly sees as his home country’s over the top reaction to the death of its long-standing monarch. Ashost was quick to feign distress over what he described as “10 days in forced mourning,” offering up a “sorry for our loss” to Meyers’ British drummer.
“Basically whenever a senior royal dies, I will come here,” Oliver promised. “Just click your heels three times and I will be here to give it the disrespect it deserves.” He went on to make fun of the U.K. for calling off football matches—an “act of tangible class warfare”—and even apparently lowering the sound of check-out beeps in grocery stores to honor the Queen.
