Right i've read these answers..and im sorry but they are mostly wrong :S haha.

im British..and this word is almost my Nan's number one phrase! haha

OOh-err means basically: oh no,oh dear, trouble ahead, as in somethings about to go wrong/ bad.

for example:

Wife: i cheated on my husband
Wife's friend: oooh-eer!!!! ( youre in trouble!)

or:

person 1: it looks like it's about to rain..and the washings out!
person 2: ooh-err ( as in...oh dear this is bad!)

the examples COULD be better but thats all i had haha.
get it? :)

hope this heped !

It doesn't actually mean anything in the english language. It is just an expression like 'doh' or 'oops'.

Usually its said by some guys who like some girls and shout it out!
But it can also be said by an audience when they're impressed by something.

Ooer!
