Harry and Paul s04e04 First Broadcast: Sun 18th November 2012 Harry and Paul re-invent themselves as Ricky Gervais, and the 1930s movie original of The King's Speech is unearthed along with Sherlock On The Buses.
I love Mitchel an Webb as well. Who are the two that do the RAF skit? They talk like 90's an early 2000's teens. The British have always ruled sketch comedy?
Sadly....you are quite right. On The Buses was appalling..... And I was there! Not ALL comedies of the era were "better". But then...we had to have a yardstick I suppose.
Yes it was the way with 1970's comedies most of them was based on bawdy and ribald humour, I think that matched the zeitgeist of the time.@@patagualianmostly7437
These guys are total pros. They’re layering so many comedy references going back decades and making it look easy. Love how Paul is channeling Wilfred Brimble in the office ladies from the 50’s sketches 19:47
All Those "I saw you coming" sketches are brilliant cos there's no smoke without fire, these places and these people exist, and we're just crying out to have the piss ripped out of them, that putting the 'e' on the end of tart and making its price justified sums it up, like in only fools and horses when Mike gives Densil his beef stew (£1) and gives the posh guy beef bourguignon (£2.50). Well done Harry, Paul and the actresses, top class t.v.
I pretty much live in an area where most shops are like that, heavily populated with footballer types and their wives spending money on "retro" tat for 20x what it's worth. At least it's cool to see their cars going around but they do make me sick sometimes
Wow, the real comedy show is the fact that you find it brilliant that a comedy sketch is parodying real life via exaggeration and thing that TV is written t.v.
Harry’s just like Eddie Hearn at start if this clip! Comedy geniuses. Paul is a natural comedic actor whom not many can compare but Harry is a fantastic comedic writer. Naturally compliment each other, it’s spookyyy!!!!
God bless IDMB. I've been going crazy every time the Parking Pataweyo sketch comes on trying to think where the hell I recognise his face from. It's from that particularly brutal Black Mirror episode about the social credit system which made me cry.
Still very funny and beautifully observed. The "I saw you coming sketches" anticipate the current millenium shallowness of pointless materialism, and the two surgeons are quite brilliant. Better and more biting than many other BBC/ITV satire efforts including Not the 9 O'clock News, Python, and all the other male comedy duos put together.
Lol. The skit spoofing the Kings Speech is hilarious. "This repeating the first letter of each word is silly business. Stop it!" "Oh dear, I must have sounded like a babbling babboon. Why didnt anyone tell me?" "We are to polite and British."
That last skit reminds me of me and my old varsity pals. We're all in our mid fifties now and still gaming. I'm a big GTA fan but we started out playing _Space Invaders_ or, _Spacies_ as we were want to call it.
@@annemacleod4227 No, he means wont. It means customary behaviour. The first chap just spelled it wrong, which is what the second comment was pointing out.
Love these - love the '999.99' sketches. It SO annoys me when you go into a store and see all those 9's plastered all over the place. They think we're all stupid? 'Oh, a thousand pounds for that armchair?! No way.' 'Ooh £999.99 for that armchair?! Bargain! Have you got two?' 🤔😝
@@alchemy432thefoolcardmagic7 "There's loads of sick inside jokes". You're right there, matey. Shake one of those jokes and you can hear it sloshing around inside.

Agree very much. Harry and Paul are great. But I am no fan of Ricky Gervais. I find him oily and over-reliant on cheap jokes and bad language. Okay, comics like Billy Connolly and Eddie Izzard use bad language, but they do it with a lot more finesse and style. (That said, I guess The Office was quite funny, but a lot of credit for that must go to the writers and the rest of the cast.)
Maaaaan tell you what, the second I saw Mr Garage, or Farage, or whatever, I spat all over my monitor. Was not expecting this little posh shit to show up here! I love Ricky Gervais` work, brilliant impersonation! Amazing skits, all of them! Previous episode had me in stiches!
I'd watch TV again if there was anything that wasn't lame. Some stuff appeals to me, then peters out becoming lame. You actually have to pay even if it's just Netflix. Can watch stuff on your laptop or phone but as soon as you watch it on a TV, then it's 6.50 a week. Yeah screw that. Radio 4 for me until it's not lame
that opening sketch, as has been pointed out, is excellent, and what's with Farrage coming out? . I hadn't seen this show- i moved abroad years ago- and i am so impressed by this show. I used to love Harry Enfield in the 90s
This is the best Topical funny even now..? What year did they ban funny? TBH, All of the things we laugh at here are STILL on the Telly! Is there Owt new?
In reference to the sketch from time stamp 24:00 .. I'll supply the alcohol if these delightful chaps want to blow up a couple Parliaments around the world .
These guys are still one of the funniest double acts around. Great comedy. Thanks for uploading!

I can't understand how they're always so funny. They're my favourite British comedians.
They worked together as electricians before they got the tv show. So pretty much in tune with humour.. both are class
really? seriously? not funny in anyway

he does the same voice when playing theo papitis
He loves doing his southern europeans
Theo Profiterole is his best character for me
This series was underrated, its actually brilliant

@@Nvananon I thought he looked familiar and get out is where I've seen him. Thank you.
Nope.

Exactly
Their impressions of people are uncanny. They must have studied Ricky Gervais for ages to get all the mannerisms and time it perfectly 👍🏻😂
This. Especially Paul's mastery of Ricky's lip curl / gurn was absolutely mesmerising.
Oh dear, the impression is of David Brent not Gervais.
@@jonskinner5664 oh fuck off you enormous twat
@@everything777 I know right? Such a cock. Probably a "progressive" liberal twat.

Only 7 years ago... and yet so wouldn't get made today. We have fallen fast and hard.

And it’s since got worse

No. The expression 'as we were want' in that context just means thats what we called it. It's an older expression, not often used nowadays.

Paul’s Gypsy woman is terrifying
"Drink beer or wank" , now that is the next t shirt logo 😂
If you're Irish, you can do both
Harry's understated, suppressed guffaws in the last sketch are delicious. Perfect ending.
“Fuzzy wuzzy” my god you would not be able to get away with that today. I’m surprised they did back then.
That's what's wrong with the world now..to many wimps that think words are violence..
What the fuck, Nigel Farage
Yeah it was cringeworthy in an uncomical way
dan taylor I think that was the point!
The surgeons are absolutely hilarious
Parking Pataweyo - lead actor in the film “Get Out”, well done boy 👍🏻
A pair of genuinely good chameleons.
ricky gervais excellent
This is extraordinary masterpiece.
By far the best thing BBC have done in last 20 years
Love the parking pataweyo sketch !!!!
It cooks me
Why have I not seen this on the BBC? This is f' great!
One of the best episodes!
My favorite is the English gentleman and the Irish horse trainer very funny
That first sketch is among the best I've seen - not least because I think Ricky Gervais is unfunny.
