Top dog; a clear favourite but other spoofs show people like a laugh
If you have watched the YouTube video, Ultimate Dog Tease, once or even numerous times, you are not alone as in the UK, it has become this year's most watched video on the site.
The 'talking dog' video, which looks set to become a classic, has amused millions of people around the world with its clever editing. It beat T-Mobile's glorious spoof of the the marriage of Prince William and Kate Middleton, with a host of royal look alikes bopping to music from East 17, into second place
Oddball actor Charlie Sheen also won himself a prime spot at number three in YouTube's top ten most watched videos this year with Songify. The edit of Sheen's interviews on US networks ABC, CNN, NBC to music by the Gregory Brothers, essentially sums up the actor's year: Duh!
YouTube Trends Manager Kevin Allocca said: "The 10 most-watched YouTube videos of 2011 show that around the world, whatever language we speak, there are certain things that bring us all together around a computer screen or mobile phone - adorable babies, talented performers, and clever advertising."
In fourth place was the animated Nyan Cat [original] followed in fifth place by Michael Collings audition for Britain's Got Talent 2011: Showing the judges that perhaps audiences are fed up with manufactured plastic drones.
In the remaining five places respectively were, Masterchef Synesthesia, Diary of a bad man 5, Rebecca Black "Friday" (Brock's Dub) and a video of Talking Twin Babies.
However what must be one of the major suprises was the fact that Fenton, another pooch with a problem, didn't appear in the top ten.
