Meet The British

posted by [personal profile] panik at 09:11pm on 02/06/2009 under ,
If you're in the UK, switch over to BBC4 now! Funniest thing I've seen since Python went off the air. Avoid drink though. I just almost died.

Oh noes! Knitted trousers! And they're on a bloke! O:! Hasn't stopped him groping that girl though. Perhaps she's blind.

It's the 1950's and a Man in a trilby  just approached two coppers in Soho and asked to see their truncheons. I'd say he's cruising for a bruising only, moustachioed rozzer looks like he might be up for it!

I'm completely exhausted from laughing. It's an early night for me.

Music:: goats
location: watching telly

Too cool for subject

It was hysterical and weird by turns, wasn't it? And on occasion oddly touching. My daughter kept on asking if it was "from your era" - I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

What was it like in the olden days mummy? Mummy points at amusingly dressed black and white persons speaking Strange New Language on TV. It's bizarre how accurate Harry Enfield's skits were in retrospect, I think. At one point I laughed so hard I think I cracked something in my neck, it's still a bit sore.

Just watched this on the iPlayer at your recommendation. Some of it may have gone over my head but I absolutley lost it laughing at the bit about the virtues of asbestos.

Over your head? How so?

It was the bizarre surreality of so many of the clips and their juxtaposition that gave me the hysterics. Somewhere in the middle I completely lost it. I'm nbot sure I even remember anything in the last third, I was in a sort of comedy spasm laughter cramp thing, stuck in a loop I couldn't break out of. Very cathartic. ::nods::
