Viral Video: British Weatherman Perfectly Pronounces Insanely Long Place Name During TV Weather Forecast
September 09, 2015
"Just up the road from Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch."
A British weatherman didn't even stutter while saying the longest place name in all of Europe: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
Liam Dutton was giving the weather forecast on Britain's Channel 4 Tuesday night when a graphic for the coolest and warmest spots in the United Kingdom came on the screen.
"Today we had a big contrast in temperature across the U.K. Just 12 degrees [Celsius] across the coastal parts of Eastern England with cloudy skies but in the sunshine of northwest Wales at RAF Mona, just up the road from Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, the temperature got to 21 [degrees] Celsius," Dutton said, without mincing words.
Dutton later tweeted out thanks to everyone applauding his verbal feat.
"Thanks for the kind words this evening, all!" Dutton wrote.
Thanks for the kind words this evening, all! ;-) #Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

"Nailed it, well done sir!" one person replied.
"Doing us Welsh proud! I know so many who can't say it!" another tweet read.
Another user simply joked, "You've used that in scrabble haven't you?..."
Watch the impressive TV moment for yourself:
Warm day in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio...It may be a mouthful to say, but Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch in north west Wales was one of the warmest places in the UK today.And, it was no problem for our Welsh weather presenter Liam Dutton to mention it on today’s weather forecast.Posted by Channel 4 News on Tuesday, September 8, 2015
