I remember how much I loved this when I was kid. Pork Pie was a real OG.
Yeah he was hilarious 😂
*He was a real N199A*
He stil is🙏🏾💙👑❤️💙
Yes mon
Forgotten Spin off of Desmonds, PorkPie where he wins the lottery. It's well worth watching if you can find it.
RIP Desmond aka Norman Beaton 🙏🕊😭
Just found out he passed away about 20 years ago. A great tingeof sadness when I watch this fabulous comedy which I've rediscovered on Gold . RIP Norman Beaton who went far too soon at 60.

Love to binge watch this comedy. Never fails to cheer me up! The British comedy from this era are for me the best and nothing has come close. Vicar of Dibley, Thin Blue Line, Dinnerladies and Desmond's are my comfort TV.
So good to see this series back on tv. Such awesome times back in the 90s when tv was worth watching
I remember we always watched this as a kid. We loved it. One of the first great Channel 4 sitcoms.
R.I.P Mona. Thanks for being a great actor. Many of us of a certain generation will miss you.
Indeed. She just died on July 4th..
Oh damn the theme tune slaps!
14:48-15:08 Sean's rapping and Desmond's "Hum."😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Ah hum" 😂
This brings back so much memories from when I was a child
BET use to run this show for us americans, first time I saw it I was stuck.
Yes,indeed! First time I watched... I was definitely hooked!🤗
My great grandmother and I use to watch this show ❤️
Been watching the series since this episode. Norman Beaton was a genius, gone too early after coming home. RIP
omg the intro is the best intro in any show tbh its got a nice kick to it
Loved this series as a youth! Theme tune was quality as well. Funny thing is, as I recently started watching the series on demand you notice young actors who became famous in later years.
I LOVED this show; and, ALL the characters--especially Porkpie, Lee, and Susu--they were really scene stealers. Sad that Norman B. died so young. ~ Althea
I remember watching this on BET every Sunday when I was a kid,I was mad crushin on Gloria and her mom.
Where you from?

RIP Mona Hammond 🙏❤️🇯🇲
A great show so funny should have won many awards.
We watched every Saturday nite it was a family tradition 🤟🏾🇬🇾
Desmond's from 1989, absolutely 💯 loved watching this on Saturdays.
One of my favorites at that time, brilliant programme. TRUE CLASSIC !!!!!!!!!!!
Norman Beaton / Desmond, he was awesome throughout. RIP 🙏 🕊 🙏
03:28 Lisa Geoghan, great actor who also played Polly Page in the BILL (92 - 04), another brilliant program.
Ram John Holder - Porkpie, totally hilarious - awesome character (YEAH MAN !!!!!!). Not surprised that he got his own series / spin off from Desmond's for 2 season from 1995. Shame it was cut short.

I rem Lisa in the bill she seems really lovely, I still rem her name after all these years!
I used to watch this show on the US on BET in the 90s! Loved this show!
This was one of my favourite shows back in the day. As good today as it was then.
Wonderful series back in the days and still!
Just got turned on to this funny show. Im hooked.
Maryland US.
Love this show so glad it’s being shown on gold
Did they bought the rights off Channel 4?
@@christopherdrennan5819 no idea but it’s recently started being shown
The show is also on Netflix
@@christopherdrennan5819 it’s still on All 4 but GOLD are showing it on TV
The good old days !
Now watching again
I live in the USA born 88. This reminds me of the TV show called the Jefferson in the untied state look it up
One of the greatest sitcoms Britain has EVER produced. R.I.P. Norman Beaton and Christopher Gyearbuor Asante
90's childhood relived in 2022👌🏻👍🏻
Original Windrush Generation! Those opening credits told a whole story so did the song. This and Oliver at Large was so deep in my childhood! I didn't know who was funnier Desmond or Oliver!😆😆😆
Good ol day's no Facebook no Instagram no tiktok.
Amen!
I just gotta say, as white female watching this I always wanted to be Gloria- she still has that effect on me! So beautiful xx
That's because she had white values. That's not a negative comment but that's what makes her different from the rest of her family.
@@weekendwarriorprospecting817 it’s her looks I’m talking about lol I still think she is one beautiful lady...
@@weekendwarriorprospecting817 come again white values???? Wtf dude
@@weekendwarriorprospecting817 you are stupid. White values? She has west Indian values she inherited from her west Indian family and their culture. Your comment made absolutely no sense. This show is about west Indian living in England. Take your racism elsewhere. You are so typical. .
lol white values , Shirley wasn’t hooked on alcohol or prescriptions drugs.Even white women some aren’t stuck on “ WHITE VLUES “, the NERVE. 🙄
Such grt comedy, better than most of the things passing for comedy in 2022. This series was loved in Tnt.
I remember this when I was a child loved it so much
Auntie Susu passed away sad used to like she RIP
Wow, thanks for the information. RIP Desmond, Matthew and Susu🙏🏾
This Is Now On Gold
RIP Norman Beaton and Frederick Christopher Asante. This show was part of my life as a teen.
Need more black British representation on tv
My childhood favourite this my family are from Guyana and I love the Caribbean accent
From the long warm nights with an ocean breeze to the damp and to the rain of London city.
We come from the sun to live in the cold I miss me rum I want my coconut tree.
Don’t scratch my soca

If only Only Fools And Horses collided with this since they both live in Peckham
6:43-7:00 That never gets old.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've been watching this on UK gold and i have to say that it's an extremely good sit com and the characters are also well cast, what is it with Peckham and sitcoms 👍
Legendary
The award-winning series has also been shown by various networks including BET and local television channels such as London Live.
Best black comdey in uk in 1980's.
While the show was not the first black (or predominantly black) British television situation comedy (The Fosters, produced by London Weekend Television, aired 1976 -77)
Shirley reminds me of Florida Evans aka Ester Roll from Good Times 🥰
This show was jokes, I used to watch it at 6pm on ch4 then fresh price on bbc2 at 6:30 lol
That's My Moma with an older cast and additional characters
Jamaican nah play mi ago forward to dah school here😂
Porkpie was great
I was trying to remember the name of this show and now it comes up on TH-cam. Dang mind reading spies!
I still quote, “I used to have a brain once but I put it away when I married your father”
Yeah mon!!
I remember watching it on bet

GLORIA MMMMMM❤🎉
Watching this 2022.10.18 because them just announced guyanaese could fly to england without visa
"Gloria's" features remind me of my British cousin, Esther. ~ Althea
nice
This was your Fresh Prince UK peeps? Huh
We need a new show that represents black British culture like this but this time without the characters being white washed
😢
narm
Is this supposed to be a British version of The Cosby Show?
No.
The Cosby Show and Fresh Prince were comedies about the middle class, not working class..that's the difference
Shove off Greg
