@martinworld7214 it's more of a nostalgia thing for me brings back memories of a time when you would sit indoors with your family without being glued to device's.
Fantastic sketch, but ouch, you wouldn't get away with that right now, even though the irony is that they were taking the piss out of the police here, not the black guy.
Within the comedy there was a serious social message entwined. A very important injustice back then in the UK in the 80's. It would open the eyes of the watching public to the serious problem of poor eyesight of elderly women. Thank goodness today we have all turned this around.
This was a brave thing for them to do because at that time the Police generally had broad public support and Britain wasn't a woke society as it is becoming today.
I'm sure rather a lot of 'snowflakes' will find this offensive but, remember this, the black geezer also found this acceptable comedy to be part of the script!
This is pretty much how the Police work! They pick the guy who they think would be most likely to do the crime, and then build the whole case around how to convict him!! Somethings never change!!
Love the way he was smirking at the end. Ffs people, get a grip. Its a laugh so get over yourself for christ sake. If the world carrys on being more pathetic and politically correct then i look forward to WW3.
you racist prick its not just black people doing that in london its white people too and what has rap got to do with anything ? white people also its not just black people who listen to rap either i suggest you get your info right before spouting shit like that
There's more people commenting about "millennial snowflakes" than there are millennial snowflakes commenting. And I also doubt any of them would be offended by this. If this sketch is about race/racism (seeing as some are saying it isn't), this literally falls in line with their views perfectly, and caters to them, I'd even go as far as saying it supports their views. If you actually check out "millennial comedy" from recent times it regularly has similar scenarios, mocking the same topic.
Rat Face so true. The right wing closet Nazis who fill social media from there dirty little holes don’t seem to understand comedy. This is satire at it’s finest showing how ridiculous and stupid the racist right are.
I remember as a kid on sunday we would watch lovejoy, londons burning and hale and pace. Great times
Lovejoy was a huge waste of Ian McShane's talent.
@ppuh6tfrz646 when I was a kid it was entertaining but yes I agree
its when you see that line up you realise that TV wasn't so fkn great in the old days after all :) with the exception of H&P naturally !!

@@beerbug2020 you make a good point . Nostalgia & quality though can be separate bedfellows :)
Fantastic sketch, but ouch, you wouldn't get away with that right now, even though the irony is that they were taking the piss out of the police here, not the black guy.
That's where people miss the point these days, it's not the black guy who is the joke it's the stereotype of how people see police that is
Exactly!
Yeah, you would get too many white snow flakes crying that it's racism against whites.
@@miket8830 You'd probably also get people saying it's unfair to the police, so damned either way.
BRILLANT, Hale and Pace the masters!
Brilliant! One of their best!
Tv at its best back then....tv now is SHIT
TV was always shit, TV for lazy people with not much of a life
Haha. Still hilarious! Grew up watching these 2. Forgot how good they were.
I miss hale and pace
Black or White skin we are all the same underneath it's all done in comedy . A great sketch ! !
So following that logic, you are the same as Charles Manson. Correct?
Charlie thought he was a God
Love these guys.

Thank god we are becoming woke if it means a fairer and more caring society. Weirdly though there’s no evidence of that happening is there?
Great,they hit the nail on the head.
Come back 'Hale & Pace' :)
Hale and Pace deserved to be so much popular. There were hilarious...
They were very popular then they got forgotten. like many other acts.
Definitely one of my favorites. They were really funny 😂.
Excellent
Classic British comedy
English comedy
The tie/shirt and leather jacket combo brought me here
When comedy was funny,good time
I'm sure rather a lot of 'snowflakes' will find this offensive but, remember this, the black geezer also found this acceptable comedy to be part of the script!
happy reggae Man yes, i mentioned that as well in my comment. He would have seen the script.
Take a chill pill. It's fun. No one is that dumb.
The so called snowflakes are ruling the world right now.
I might be wrong but the black guy looks like he's trying not to 'corpse' (laugh) at the end.
@@michaelhoward1167 he does doesn't he 😄

Wouldn't be allowed now in our pathetic world
I'm screaming with laughter!!!

Dawn Butler would love this.....
Even the early 90s knew!!!!!!
That was the same lady who did that undertakers prank in beadles about it was brilliant.
Amazing so funny
Omg can you imagine if they tried to make this today 😂😂😂
I was just thinking that............
@@V1er1f1ed me too
Imagine if this was done now in 2020 my god they would be fucked up every which way.
I know the UK and USA woke culture just sucks......
Mint
Great tv comedy be it black or white
Nicked for wasting police time!!🤣🤣🤣
I can imagine that this kind of thing is a regular occurrence in police stations across the U.K.
off!
Well show me the white men that are currently going around London stabbing and shooting people while singing their shit rap crap!!
Two women per week are killed in England by violent male partners.
Of all musical preferences.
Sir Realist used to be.
you racist prick its not just black people doing that in london its white people too and what has rap got to do with anything ? white people also its not just black people who listen to rap either i suggest you get your info right before spouting shit like that
It’s be funny to me if the kid didn’t look exactly like my son in every way.
This is America today...
To the snowflakes, this is not racist, it is anti-racist.
Point made.
Back when no snowflakes existed and we could enjoy comedy!
Did you not enjoy this then?
Nice jab at racism there fellas. Well done ;)
If only the racist could understand comedy.
@@callumbiasnow4825yeah lefties aren't funny.
Seems legit 🤣
I wonder if this is on bbc iPlayer or itv 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank god the blm was not around then as them two would of been lenched
Still funny thought
😂😂😂😂😂 there all guilty 😂😂😂😂😂
Proper comedy 😂😂😂😂, obviously cancelled now
🤣🤣🤣. brilliant
Ha!ha!ha!ha! Classic 😏
They don't make comedy like they used to... Lol 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Fucking wrong Geoff
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just here to read all the millenial snowflake reactions of them beïng offended. People born after 1990 like vinniger more than they do humor.

How many did you find? I think you may have a persecution complex
As a gen z watching this, it's funny, i laughed because it's literally taking the piss out of police who do this shit
