Mr Bean is, as Rowan Atkinson has admitted, a very unpleasant character. I would say he's so selfish as to be a sociopath, but Harry took it a step further and made him a psychopath.
The spot they’re fishing at (9:50) is the exact spot my grandad made me get into the water to find a propellor that had spun off the model boat he had made.. I was 9 and had to feel around with my feet...in my underwear! The lake is Black Park, close to Iver and Pinewood studios. Just thought I’d add that. :)
I used to go there a lot, too. It brings back a lot of happy memories for me, walking in the beech woods, watching the model boats buzzing around on the lake. My father was the Buckinghamshire County Council Land Agent and was responsible for Black Park, Langley Park and other public spots around the county. Good times.
I’ve been listening out for “From Our Taps” every day since this was broadcast and I have to say that I am positively flabbergasted that it has never been on. What an utter disgrace.
Not seen this episode before, the beatles was funny, mr and mrs oasis lol the dragons den sketch is always funny, the evan davis impression is hilarious!
Harry and Paul are obviously brilliant guys. Funny as hell. The only talents I would compare them to in the US are Eugene Levy, Rick Moranis, Dave Thomas, Joe Flarety from the old SCTV show. I think those guys are from Canada though.
I love both Sophies and Catherine's performances in the saw you coming sketch, both are smoking hot and very talanted, especially love the rude character Sophie does so well, so much so I feel sorry for listeria (although id pop in there every day if Giselle spoke to me like that) well done ladies. Top performances throughout the series.
Nearly twenty years later and this is still utterly top tier comedy. Amazing how well the race references have held up; back then Walliams and Lucas were doing horrific blackface and yet Harry and Paul were so perfectly aware of how to treat this issues properly
7:26 The Americans' audience participation. 9:26 The Fishermen. It is like this. 'Bettering' yourself could be a good thing but then the sketch also reflects the importance of holding on to your identity. 18:18 What a stunning view and I don't just mean Sophie.
It showcases their character work, which is considerable...but is a little shy on jokes/laughs. Which sucks to say, because I do have a great affection for them, especially Paul. Still, the actor Kevin Eldon as George Martin is worth it.
I will explain how everyone in these sketches is brilliant and its pretty simple ,it's something my grandad taught me ,take the obvious and make it funny,take the piss out of the piss ,very hard thing to do
I was a receptionist for the MOD and I used to read books, and despite knowing that someone was waiting at the desk I wouldn't look at them until I'd finished the paragraph I was reading 😅 Receptionist Control Freak not a people person 😊
I love The Benefits. To really sell it they should have a perpetually screaming infant that they completely ignore, but I suppose the relentless dog barking is annoying enough.
I think you're supposed to think they're looking at something through a window, or something similar. That's what I originally thought, then I realised halfway through that they were probably at a urinal, so I don't know if I was late or early to realise that. The shot of them washing their hands feels like a punchline reveal.
OMG I love the 'I Saw You Coming' sketch - 'I am reading a book'. I remember these shows, most people only remember Harry and Paul from the 90s but these sketches were absolute genius. I reckon because the fucking BBC believed Enfield wasn't 'left-wing' enough they stuck this series on at 9.30 on BBC 2, so not many people saw it.

@@Raver_DJ_Pilot oh shut up you softie little snowflake
Superb, surreal, bonkers, dry wit and just plain excellent comedy and observation. There is no equivalence today.
Sorry that's a mistake it's 10 pounds for a chocolat tarte not a chocolate tart.
Imagine doing parking pataweyo now 😂
All of the "I saw you coming" sketches are totally brilliant. Enfield's best character IMO.
Paul Whitehouse is a national treasure
That Dean he is like that short arse who attacked Simon Copper in the inbetweeners
@@frederickpurcell3925 anything from the Inbetweeners is pale in comparison to Whitehouse. It's an insult to compare or even comment on them
th-cam.com/video/5qOuwqAftEI/w-d-xo.html
@frederickpurcell3925 it's the same actor, that's why
What happened to him?
It seems he just.. disappeared...
The football changing room scene was genius. How good a actor is Paul Whitehouse.
He's almost in that Toff actor's league.
D D Lewes?
Football sketch at the beginning is too much! Classic!
They're the best. So brilliant to see them back this week as Loadsamoney and Stavros, still funnier than most other stuff both old and new.
No laugh track alone makes it 100× more funny
The Beatles sketches are pure brilliance.
I have been in France for 11 years now, therefore I actually find the French 'I saw you coming' shop assistant quite polite!
I like France myself friend! Would like to live out there one day.

Does anyone else just adore the American tourists?
Excellent and so true
better than Chinese
The writer and the landlady is wickedly sublime. Very strange.
Yes that was pure genius.
Next up Paul vs Alan Rickman vs Gary Oldman. That'd be nuts
The most bizarre best

That elderly American couple is actually quite cute in their complete obliviousness

Comedy gold, comedy genius, comedy perfection. 🤣
"Really Peter, there's no such thing as a Paedophile". Hahaha I'm crying.
Absolutely brilliant comedy from the pair
…and the noir movie sketch is quite surreal but some how very accurate!
''Is that a fringe or a minge?''
I have no idea what The Writer and the Landlady is meant to be parodying but I know it’s spot on

👍👍👍😂😂😂
🤣
The greatest put down of
“Michelin stars ’n’ all that shit”

I think that Beatles sketch painted a really profound picture about the difference between 90s and 60s culture. But I don’t no do I?
Paul whitehouse is a true comic genius and an excellent actor too.
The football manager at the start is fkn hilarious
One can see the coloured gentleman struggling to govern his mirth when the coach breaks into Ladysmith Black Mumbazo-style singing.
Coloured???

The laughing sounds were never fake. They'd play the footage to the audience and that's the laughter you'd hear.
The young lad Peter saying Hell made me laugh. Good delivery.
That episode of "Ask the Family" was intense.

@@puskascat Try having your downstairs neighbours like that!😩😭
"This is Giselle - she's French - she's even ruder than me ..." LMFAO

That’s the best oasis impression ever
He’s at peace now, this needs fixing, Classic.
Ghostface cracks me up 😂😂😂
Ghosts face killah?

24:52 I'm sure that music used to play in some Laurel and Hardy films. It's brilliant!
Surprisingly dark for a comedy show

Dean and grandad benefits!. reminds me of the council estate i was raised on in my teens. So glad i left!
"From Our Taps" would be typical radio 4 program...I was a regular listener until I realised I was about 90 years too young to be listening
Mr Sheringham, err can u hear me 🤣🤣.
Cracks me up
Harry and Paul write and feature in a one off league of gentlemen episode..that would be very interesting
The bookies sketch and Mr Bean decapitating the shopowner for a penny were my highlights! 😂
21:17 What a sad ending to "Cafe Polski". Simon's coffee won't be 'his cup of coffee' any more.
Doh-ze kappucino.

Stunning production values...
The McCartney chin is killing me 😂
Top of their craft these guys
The fishing sketch looks like it was filmed at Black Park lake near Slough.
That's what I thought. Pinewood studios close by of course & TV progs made there, so maybe.
It showcases their character work, which is considerable...but is a little shy on jokes/laughs. Which sucks to say, because I do have a great affection for them, especially Paul.
Still, the actor Kevin Eldon as George Martin is worth it.
Is it just me or is Sophie Winkelman just one of the most beautiful women to have ever walked the Earth?
Thanks for giving me the name. And even better her father has a 700 acre farm in South Devon.
