I used to work in a posh little boutique. One of the silliest things we sold were bits of paper with trite inspirational messages tied to a seashell and hanging from a string. Expensive and one of our best selling objects. Sold several dozen every day. People are stupid.
hahahahaha. There are many scams in the world but I wouldn't call that one of them. If people are that stupid they deserve to lose their money. Well played
Harry is one of the best comics alive today but a great shame he's not on TV as much as he was. True top quality British comedy TV for British wit at its best..
My sister's mate used to have a shop like this in Barnes SW London. He'd buy all kinds of shit and sell them at silly prices. If something didn't sell, he'd double the price and it'd be gone. True story.
I used to play cricket in Barnes and before I went there I used to make a cheeky pit stop in the high street for a coffee and pre match pastry. Earwigging for just 15 min would provide hours of entertainment!
I can well believe that story, some people will buy any old shite and pay astronomical sums for it. Just watching an episode of bargain hunt would confirm that. 😂
It's underrated because the bloody BBC has never really liked Harry Enfield because he's not pc enough for them. So they put Harry & Paul on at 9.30 on BBC2, therefore few people saw it.
@@monkeytennis8861 A brief perusal of wiki tells us Harry And Paul got 4 series. Thats not something that happens when "people have switched off". It is something that happens when the show is successfull.
These woman characters are quite like the famous people… Claudia Winkleman, Amanda Holden, Sadie Frost and Kate Moss in real life. The Primrose Hill crew….funnily enough Harry Enfield still lives there too. He’s definitely basing these sketches on them 😂
Love Harry Enfield - Top Comedy!!!.......Relaxing in my back garden BUT this damn nosey neighbour keeps leaning over the hedge and telling me....."No No No, you don't want to be doing it that way!!! You should be doing it this way!!!"
I have got some real good shit if you’re interested in buying?! I also have a friend who’s an estate agent who has some fantastic beachside properties for sale in Doncaster?! 👍🏼😆
@@chrisnieto5547 Oh Im actually in Rottingdean,pub keys are getting handed in -as for shops a few have been empty a while...the boutiques are still going strong-Devesons etc nice but pricey may be urban legend but apparently the bag sequence in League of Gentlemen was Rottingdean!
It's amazing how close to real life it is. With cars being sold for £7.5m and all gone before they've been made proves it. They probably only cost around £500k to make.
You're missing the point. If you went to a scrap deealer, found a 70's car with a chrome ash-tray, bought the ash-tray, and sold it for 2.5k as a retro integral component of a soon-to-be classic car, you'd be on the Marcus vibe.
Land rovers for example. They've been sold in the US for ages, petrol sponges, horrible cars that could kill you when crashing but the posh think they're the IT cars in the UK 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
I have an ex-girlfriend who lives in West London. Privately educated. I don't think she has ever had a proper job. Her parents are wealthy. She's an 'interior designer/photographer'. Maybe one day she will open one of those tiny shops with a £12,000 antique chair in the window. And yes, I did see her coming. Very frequently.😻
Anytime my partner wants to buy some tat from a shop I roll out the "it's all at frighteningly expensive prices" to get her out of there and realise shes being conned...Thanks Marcus!
I swear he got this character from a person I once worked for… except he sold really expensive arts materials. He used to pronounce the word really as rarely, which was amusing at the time.
This is a very accurate take on all retail 👏 most people having been buy shit all their lives They will be seriously over charging for energy next while tell you to protect the environment and everyone will believe them and pay what they say
😂The names of the girls says it all really of the notions the clientele in this area have..that moment at 2.51" stupid idiot you" and then the pin number ...😂..and his bluntness to them after
I was on the tube doing bits from this with my partner and when the tube stopped at Knightsbridge the lady sitting opposite jumped up, looked daggers at me and stormed off the tube. Would have loved to have heard her accent!
@@SuperCatbert Thank you for the heads up. Well if they DID do dealerships it would have "I see you coming" on its fascia. And I bet those service centres see you coming a mile off..." new battery sir? Certainly, that will be 30k please".

How much for? I’ll sell some myself…
The women in this show really are brilliant actors.
Both are in peep show
They're not acting...
good directing
They are like that in real life - she is from
Royalty lines
What do you mean actors? Those were real customers
The “I saw you coming” sketches are some of the best and funniest examples of satire ever written. Every one of them a gem.
total rip off from kids in the hall.
@@MizMite2002 Which sketch has this?
Unless you’ve seen George Whitbread.
u being ironic?
😅😅😅😅
Big Suze and April from Peep Show, both bloody gorgeous women!
they also swapped hair colours
Agree !
Big Suze is the one
'Trustafaria Dunce' Now there is the perfect Notting Hill name.
I'm a Northerner living near Notting Hill. This is nailed on accurate.
A Northerner?... What, Islington?
@@artsed08 everyone who is British would know what she means by northerner, obviously not north London Lol.

@@insertnamehere5146It’s pathetic how stupid people have become these days. No sense of humour.

@@Harmonical1 he's vastly overrated and people had switched off. And he's not remotely edgy, the opposite, your claim about the BBC is drivel.

Underrated? How? Is that the word you use to describe everything you like?
I cant believe they managed to get this footage of carrie johnson redecorating her flat at taxpayers expense
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Golly Gosh...spot on 😂
How did this entire show pass me by for all these years?
Me too!! ( there's another potential show right there)
"Shepherds Bush borders". Amazing.
I need to adopt this business model.
Keep coming back to these. Brilliant.
I thought you probably would
😛
Me too. Love it.
He’s seen you coming.
I thought I was the only one to keep watching these.😄

Funny you mention Claudia Winkleman as the blonde in the first sketch is her sister.
Yes the blonde is Sophie Winkleman. Claudia's sister.
Don't be a tit, Claudia plays a character for TV.
@@benjin0311 Big Suze! No actual royalty.
@@UKRenna Yes Big Suze! Peep Show was awesome! Ive actually been rewatching it last few days 😄
It’s that shark tooth pendant around his neck that makes me crack up.
What a good eye. Havent noticed it before. A sharks tooth for a shark
Old men used to think it made them look or feel younger and sexier. You could just imagine that with him.
Yeah it's satirical, I knew people who wore these as they legit thought it was cool.
Thanks to Harry Enfield i can't watch Salvage Hunter with a straight face. Thankfully.
Or Salvage Hunters The Restorers. Some of the prices they come up with...frightening!!!!
A true master at work
The great thing is your comment could refer to HE or the character he’s playing and be equally true for either 😂
Harry is a national treasure
"Cough up and get out of my face" hahaha that's exactly how to treat customers
What you’re thinking, but not able to say out loud 😁😂😂😂
One my favourite Harry Enfield characters.
Amazing. It's even funnier that the people who it's taking the piss out of won't get it too.
Spot on during the madcap 1990’s. Living in Holland Park I saw it first hand lol.
We all know those people...more money than sense..perfect 👏👏👏
Love Harry Enfield - Top Comedy!!!.......Relaxing in my back garden BUT this damn nosey neighbour keeps leaning over the hedge and telling me....."No No No, you don't want to be doing it that way!!! You should be doing it this way!!!"

This is the seventh time I've returned, I'm living n Brighton at present and it's all so real.
I used to live in Rottingdean and half the shops were like that. Changed hands every 3 minutes.

There is alot of 90's/00's comedy that I didn't get as a child.
Things are funnier when you understand them.
Depends on how many you sell,that limited by how many you actually can make.

This is so accurate ,these people really do exist
This is Comedy. Harry Enfield is some of Britains best comedian talent.
Isabora & Trustafaria ah two bloodclaats!
Used to love Notting Hill in the 70s. Time just flies by.
Top geezzzaa Harry Enfield....And so true to LIFE....🇯🇲🇬🇧❤️💯

I need to remember that line.
Are you in Business then ?
The stereotypes are spot on
Ha ha 😂 absolute gem loved this show it’s funny because it’s true
Sophie Winkleman, Catherine Shepherd and Alice Lowe.
Sophie, gorgeous. So much better than her sister.
@@PSUK this series probably did have some of the most beautiful women in British TV..to be very superficial!
@@vanpallandt5799 Kathy Burke lol
Alice Lowe!! From Dark Place and Sightseers!!
Fantastic British comedies.
I used to work in a posh organic shop in Notting Hill once. This brings back vivid memories.
Just one of the best sketches ever 👍👍👍
Harry Enfield the Legend of satire lol
Very good. Who remembers Reggie Perrins "Grott" shop ?
Big Suze is utterly gorgeous
😂😂😂…….can always rely on HE to put a smile on your face 🙏🏻❤️
HE??? Oh, you mean Harry Enfield. Funny how no one can be bothered to use full words anymore.
@@orphanoforbit7588 ……I bet you’re a fkn hoot at parties 🤡
I went to a party in Soho House many years ago and all the women there were actually like this
Even in Australia there Are shops and customers just like this. Hilarious.
Usually in Balmain or Paddington if you're in Sydney.
I'm sitting here and it just occurred to me he could be doing a James May impression. Not i cant stop seeing James May as the shop keeper
British comedy at its Best on a roll from the 70’s.
Nothing to do with the 70s!
so spot on. still
I swear he got this character from a person I once worked for… except he sold really expensive arts materials. He used to pronounce the word really as rarely, which was amusing at the time.
I'd say it's pronounced "rar-ly" as in 'spar-ly'.
Subliminal messaging
Big Suze from Peep Show. She was even more gorgeous back then!
Wonderful.
Marcus is one of my favourite villains ever
Big Suze with blonde hair, total stunner.
That lady at 8:56 was one of the hostesses on the hilarious South African Airways sketch
Sure is
That sketch is hilarious and is from the TV show "Beehive"
I miss this kind of comedy coming out on TV. The 80s and 90s were truly great.
God I feel like opening a shop like this
Lady Winkleman is totally gorgeous .
Funny (~ier) cos her mother-in-law was one of those ‘interior designers’.
I call her lady wankleman
This is pretty much an accurate portrayal of West London.
Accents Spot on.
Sophie didn't have to try too hard.
These girls are what I imagine Made in Chelsea and TOWIE sound like and have about the same IQ. And I've never watched either of the shows.
This is a very accurate take on all retail 👏 most people having been buy shit all their lives They will be seriously over charging for energy next while tell you to protect the environment and everyone will believe them and pay what they say

This is how Drew Pritchard makes his dough.
Just fab!
Reminds me of the leased Range Rover driving housewives of Harrogate!

why am i finding this so funny! omg
So happy I have only found this today..

Sums up London to a tea.
Reminds me of Pimlico Road. I quote ‘I saw you coming’ when I walk the dog through it.

Classic comedy it's right spot on alot of these shops sell stuff with no value at all load of people throw away
I would love to see her coming.
Marcus you lucky bugger ! Imagine getting to kiss April and big Suze.
