In the 1990s a slogan for British Gas was "Don't you love being in control?" referring to the controlabilty of gas when you cook on an open stove, compared to electric. Harry and Kathy made a great point of that in this sketch. Boomer, you are an honorary Brit. Our humour comes easy to you, and that's enough to qualify you. You'd fit in anywhere in the UK.
Well said. 100% agree,
You missed the part about them (British Gas ) having showrooms to sell cookers and other gas appliances .
kathy burke is one of englands finest actresses, not only is she brilliant in any comedy role she does, she is also gut wrenchingly raw in the number of grim british films she's done. You and QB would love Gimme Gimme Gimme. its shocking you havent reacted to it yet because its so far up your street its parked in the drive lol. give it a go man im 100% sure you'd love it.
Kathy Burke! Comedy genius!
Yes it is the geordie guy. Look for Gimme Gimme Gimme starring Kathy Burke. Queen Boomer will love it.
Not a Geordie in real life though born near Carlisle,
PLLLLEEEEAAAASSSEEE watch gimme gimme gimme, Kathy Burke is in it, it's brill, think you'd love it!!
Harrys Enfield ‘substantially Richer than you”
Sketches where Kathy Burke gets glammed up
The slobs winning the lottery what what😂
Considerably richer*
& moved onto Harry's "boutique" i saw you coming😂& hedgehog was a character in bottom!
Has anyone ever suggested " The Fast Show" ? Same type of humour but with lots of different characters featuring Paul Whitehouse
So many times, but he never sees the comments, or just ignores them. I guess there's too many suggestions to cover everything. He'll get there eventually.
Escorchio
It's great the fast show innit?. Isn't the fast show fab?.😂
Many many times…
@@user-py5ct1go2snice!
Yes, you are correct. it is the Geordie (Michael) from I'm Alan Partridge. Otherwise known as Simon Greenall.
Simon Greenall is also the voice of Alexander and Orlov in the Meerkat ads.
@@user-py5ct1go2swow! That's interesting.
but in this sketch he's gone yorkshire-ish
7:05
"I might have to lean towards Kathy Burke..."
.
Ooooo! Young man!!
😉
Kathy Burke and Harry Enfield; legendary comedy actors!
These were called The Lovely Wobbly Randy Old Ladies
Kathy and Harry are great together and "Kevin and Perry Go Large" is their best work
Bloody hell that is Geordie from Alan Partridge. Didnt realise til you said it sounds like him
Aye!
And he's got a disarmingly non Geordie, slightly posh accent IRL
Aye - also Sergei from the Meerkat adverts.
It's the work geordie!
With gas man in mind, you ought to watch/react to the 'Gas' (Series 1 ep.2) episode of 'Bottom' (Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson, plus Brian Glover as Mr. Rottweiler).
Boomer finished Bottom just last week, it's on his Patreon. Series 1-3.
Yes, it's the superb Simon Greenall.
Ooooh Young Maaaan!
I would also like to see 'King Boomer' react to 'Gimme Gimme Gimme,' starring Kathy Burke and James Dreyfus. I would also be interested to see Queen Boomer react as well. Maybe when their daughter is a bit older.
That line that Harry uses ...
Don't you love been in control
Was actually from an advert made by British gas ..
When (not sure they still do) British Gas had showrooms that obs sold gas to customers but also cookers etc .
Its is Michael the Geordie from AP
Yeah, he's the work Geordie
Hey King boomer.. Kathy Burke is a legend.. very diverse in alot of her acting.. comedy and drama. But her most famous comedy act is Gimme Gimme Gimme .. it a must watch.. with James Dreyfus another great actor.. Kathy Burke has also worked with French and Saunders.. esp as Bananarama. They are another iconic comedy duo.
"If I were 30 yrs younger" used to be a favourite (UK) 😋
Possibly the inspiration for Paul Whitehouse's randy old tailors in The Fast Show? Substitute "Young man!" for "Suits you sir!".
👍🏼 That is indeed Michael that worked at the hotel first and then the petrol station.
Ps. Have you seen any sketches of Harry and Paul doing Smashy and Nicey based on 2 real life dj's on pirate radio ships from the 1960's and 70's. This was when they had ships moored up offshore just outside British waters where they had radio stations broadcasting music and advertisements outside of British broadcasting rules and regulations. They were hilarious, especially in context with the real characters. Absolutely priceless.
Those sketches were funmungous in a fantabulous-type way.
Shame they didn't make saville walk the plank even back in the 60's
Yep, as others have said, it's the guy from Alan Partridge. As soon as you said that I recognized the voice, well spotted.
The is a Peabody Estate in N/London where we were refurbishing property's on and spending about 7 weeks in each home. One of the residents was quite elderly who wore a tonne of make up and would walk about bra-less wearing a tight t-shirt showing nipples that were at the side of the boobs and tight cycling shorts on, making obscene sexual innuendo's at every single word spoken. The best part is, they were Trans. The look on the guys faces when we would do our inspections was priceless. Big burly Romanian guys pleading to be placed on another property was just one of the funniest things I have come across in ages.
The Geordie also does the voices for a very successful ad campaign for Compare the Meerkat
When Kathy Burke refers to his "bulge" and then says "it reminds me of a young Desert Orchid" she was referring to a well known racehorse that ran many races in the 90's.
It is the same actor from Alan Partridge, the Geordie guy, his name is Simon Greenall.
RECOMMENDED, Watch the IT CROWD bloopers n outtakes ,hilarious watching them all uncontrollabley laughing take after take
Yes he is the guy in Alan Partridge. He's the janitor... yes, Geordie...
"Just caught the UK Gold special celebrating 30 years of the classic slapstick comedy show Bottom! It's a riot! Would be awesome to hear what folks across the pond in the States think of this iconic series!"
"Don't you just love being in control?" was the advertising slogan for British Gas at the time this sketch was recorded.
Yes, that’s Simon Greenall, who plays Michael the Geordie in I’m Alan Partridge. He’s in a number of Harry Enfield shows and several other sketch comedy shows. He was also briefly in Plebs and Benidorm.
As for the best comedy pairing, it’s way too close to call. But you really need to see Harry & Kathy as Wayne & Waynetta Slob.
HELLO MISTER *GASSSS MANNNNNN!!!!*
Timeless comedy Harry and Cathy and Paul are a trilogy.
He wants to lean towards Kathy Burke....Ooh, the naughty young man, what would Queen Boomer say!
He can't pick between Kathy Burke and Paul Whitehouse, the greedy young man!
There are so many things you aren't getting, from the outset, 'have I come too early?' Did you not get that? Then smelling the gas, and their pipework, and the best bit, 'I just get my to.....spanners (he did not want to say his tools (tool being slang for his knob). I once showed this to a bunch of year 5s (grade 4 in the US). I just remembered to 'young man', I had totally forgotten about the plethora of double entendres. Mind you, those who 'got them' died laughing.
Your thinking of Michael the work Geordie….ya never had a mug o’beans,aye ya in for a treat!!
2:00 Lester Piggott = famous veteran jockey. Started as a teenager in the 1950s. Later went to prison for tax evasion.
Kathy Burke in "Nil by mouth" if you haven't seen it.
Incredible performance by her in that film.
Always remember the sketch that’s goes some,thing like “butter is up again”, “what are you watching, the stock exchange?”, “NO, Last Tango In Paris!”.
Besides the Gas Man actor Simon Greenall appearing in Alan Partridge, he also played the heavily made-up Caretaker in the kids TV adventure game-show Trapped! His voice, as well as his appearance, is radically different again in that.
Yes, the Geordie is SImon James Greenall. He is also the voice of Aleksandr in the Compare the Market adverts. Good spot.
It is the same guy ...Simon Greenall....he's a fellow Cumbrian, to be fair we frequently get mistaken for Geordies and in Alan Partige he's is deliberately being Geordie
I'd go for a third option for best pairing. Paul Whitehouse and Bob Mortimer on Gone Fishing. Not a comedy, just two old blokes going fishing and talking shit, but they are great together. Nice to see men just doing man stuff with no bother. And the rivers they fish in are beautiful
I class you as a interpreter between the pond . Top man
Being in Control with the thumbs up used to the old British Gas slogan. And they used to be a trio so can't pick and it is the Geordie from Alan Partridge lol should show this to Queen Boomer lol
Yes, that was such a good call on the Geordie guy ! I didn't hear it until you pointed it out. Kathy Burke is just brilliant.
When these sketches went out, a lot of people shouted “Oooh Young Maaan!” at workmen all the time!
"Have I come too early" ....ye it's definitely the Geordie from AP
I'm not sure if King Boomer has reacted to full episodes of 'Fawlty Towers; but if he hasn't, I'd like to see it.
The Geordie character (Michael) is played by Simon Greenall and is in fact in both seasons of I’m Alan Partridge. He’s also in the ‘Van Drivers Lament’ musical sketch in the Harry & Paul series 😂
That's a bloody hard question
On pairings it's horses for courses, but Kathy Burke is a serious straight actress who does comedy well and Paul Whitehouse is just funny all the time, even in real life.
ooooh young man
Simon Greenall.... the voice of the meerkats advert here in the UK
Have you reacted to the slobs yet? Start at the beginning if you do, not at the lottery one.
Thank you for mentioning this!! I've seen so many reaction channels do the lottery sketch, which doesn't make much sense without watching the previous ones.
Yes, he is the Geordie from Alan Partridge.
Well done I wouldn’t have noticed that the pictures so bad
One of my neighbours and I always greet each other with “Young man?” answered by “Young man.” (drawn out)
Hello! I don't comment much, but I come by often. Love all the Brit comedy you've been doing!
Lol yes he is a Geordie from Newcastle. And he IS the actor in I'm Alan Partridge! Simon Greenall.
Have I come too early?
Young man!
😂😂😂😂 Used to quote this as a kid, so inappropriate.
Love the reaction and love Harry & Kathy. BTW, they're called the "Lovely Wobbly Randy Old Ladies"
It IS 'the guy from the petrol station' , Michael (Simon Greenall)
Both Kathy and Paul have great comic chemistry with Harry 👍
You spotted him, you win a Cupid doll, he plays a geordie in Alan Partridge
That's the same guy from Alan Partridge.
Have you watched the BBC 90’s comedy ‘Bottom’ yet. There is an episode called the gasman. It’s funny 😂
Yes, Mr. Partridge, sir.
Usually the Young Man is a lot younger lol
not geordie from petrol station .. and the quote from harry enfield ... i love being in control is a quote from british gas .. the irony gets me .
Its the work geordie!
How big was that Battenberg at 4:55?!
Yes, the Gas Man is the same actor as Michael the Geordie in I'm Alan Partridge. Well spotted KB!
Sounds like you're a bit of a granny-magnet yourself King Boomer 😂
Simon Greenall played the gas man in this scene
Young man 😂
Young man!
Whos the better pairing...?
That like trying to pick your favourite child!
The Geordie with a cup of beans!
Right again king boomer ! He is the Geordie ex army man in I'm Alan Partridge, also you don't seem to have done the slobs wayne and waynetta from harry enfield , harry and kathy in full swing
Thank you Young King!
And please don't make me pick pairings, to me they are all equal 'chums'
Cherrs Sir
Kathy Burke is great in Gimme Gimme Gimme. Some of the jokes and references are about UK celebrities and life can sometimes go over foreign audience's heads but there's still plenty to laugh about. The Thin Blue Line would be another good show that is worth a look. As a kid I always used to like Men Behaving Badly too. Coupling was also a pretty good show that might appeal to Lady Boomer. Just some shows I could think of off the top of my head. I'm still hoping you might give Celebrity Juice a go - the only thing is that its a pretty long show.
Just an aside, Kathy Burke isn't just funny, she's a fantastic actress. Her best role is probably in Nil By Mouth (she stars opposite Ray Winstone), which won her Best Actress at the 1998 Canne film festival. It's a pretty tough watch, and apparently still holds the record for "most uses of the word 'cunt' in a film" (82), and 428 uses of 'fuck' and it's derivatives, in a run timeof 128 minutes, so it would be a bitch to edit for a CZcams reaction.
CZcams just suggested I rewatch your first reaction to Bo Selecta next. Is there any way of persuading Lady Boomer to go back? I know she loved it deep down, even though it weirded her out!
Which pairing is better? A hard choice but Kathy Burke gets it for me only because Kevin the teenager (and Perry) which are my favourite sketches
Can I ask why the “extreme” widescreen? Halve it KB.
You don't pick your best kid. Paul leaving created even more comedy for us at the time in the UK
You need to look out Private Eye Year in Review 2023 for lots of Harry Enfield content. Will introduce you to Ian Hislop too, the editor of Private Eye. Joy awaits!
Ian Hislop has single-handedly ruined 'Private Eye' and made it a partisan unfunny (ironically) joke.
@DarkAngel459 what? It's doing better than ever and they must take credit for pursuing injustices over long periods like the Post Office subpostmasters scandal.
Did you watch the kevin and Perry film ? Was it giving it large ?
Excellent video… you really need to check out “The Fast Show” which features Paul Whitehouse and many others… it’s a great show :)
You should watch The Mighty Boosh and the League of Gentlemen (BBC) if you haven’t already. Different level those two.
You're my wife now.have suggested these but boomer videos are much better with the queen.they were shocked,almost speechless at episode 1 of no select a so I think boost & l of g might be a bit beyond them!they love inbetweeners(which personally i didn't rate as highly as the reactors)but suggested Friday night dinner.as well as absolutely fabulous,royle family,early doors,French & saunders,Mitchell & webb,a bit of fry & laurie,Armstrong & miller & on & on
never mind early 90s seems like woman are gonna be like this in the coming years
You couldn’t choose between Burke n whitehouse
Hey u guys if u wanna watch the female version of The Inbetweeners uk its called Some Girls
Definitely Harry and Kathy for me.
Check out harry enfield and chums Lulu and Harry - hilarious
It is him, and the last line was from a British gas advert, Whitehouse was better in the fast show suit you sir 😂
