The 'Computer Says No' catchphrase from Little Britain, spoken in a flat, dismissive tone to reject a request. Used for reaction videos and comedy edits.

This short clip captures the iconic Little Britain catchphrase 'computer says no', spoken by Carol Beer, the unhelpful bank and travel agent clerk, in a deadpan, slightly robotic voice that makes a simple refusal feel hilariously final. The delivery is slow, flat and completely unbothered, with a brief pause that lets the rejection land before the scene moves on. It works because it turns everyday bureaucracy into comedy, giving viewers an instant, recognisable way to say no without explaining themselves, whether the request is absurd, impossible or just unwelcome.

Computer Says No comes from Little Britain, the BBC sketch comedy series created by Matt Lucas and David Walliams that first aired in 2003. The line belongs to Carol Beer, played by Walliams, a bored clerk who refuses customers by blaming her computer, coughing theatrically and offering no help. The catchphrase quickly entered British everyday speech and later spread through clips, reaction videos and soundboards as a shorthand for unhelpful bureaucracy. It remains popular because the refusal is instantly recognisable, easy to quote and still fits modern frustrations with automated systems and customer service.

Professionele tip voor gebruik

Drop it right after someone makes an outrageous or impossible request, then cut to a deadpan reaction shot or a freeze frame. Keep the clip unedited so the flat delivery lands, and avoid layering music over it, which softens the blunt refusal.
