Salute to the King’s Guard who resisted Hank Azaria’s best efforts to make him laugh with Simpson’s voices
Actor Hank Azaria, star of Godzilla, Run Fatboy Run and The Birdcage, but probably better known as one of the talented voice cast of The Simpsons, is on TikTok, and – more importantly – in the UK.
Like many tourists before them, Hank and his family went to the Tower of London to see the King’s Guards, and – also like many tourists before him – he tried to make one of them laugh. Watch what happened.

TikTok was all over it. Here are a few things they said.
I thought David was in Minsk…

The guard after his shift: y’all… Hank Azaria came by and did all of his voices for me!!!!
Sarah Kelly
Plot twist, he’s never seen an episode and has no idea who the weird guy doing crazy voices is.

Inevitably, it found its way to Twitter/X.
Obsessed with Hank Azaria doing the voices of Moe, Chief Wiggum, etc, in an attempt to make this soldier crack. I don’t think I’d last a microsecond. pic.twitter.com/36ff8vMGoA

Many agreed.

How many hints do I have to drop before one of you hires me a Simpsons cast member to do this for me? https://t.co/QGz2VWTJMv

Worth it just to hear and see him do the voices alone. https://t.co/cccXrAI5q9

If I was a Royal Guard, I’d piss myself laughing and get sacked. https://t.co/3AlV9QppDR

This is the second best thing Hank Azaria has ever made in London after the criminally underrated romcom 'Run Fatboy Run'

Perhaps he was inspired by fellow Simpsons cast member – the voice of Bart, Nancy Cartwright.
@officialnancycartwright Replying to @sweetbro82 Was Bart able to make a Queen’s Guard move? Here’s what really happened! #bartsimpson #thesimpsons #queensguard ♬ original sound – Nancy Cartwright
Video, or it didn’t happen.
