American Reacts | HARRY AND PAUL | American Tourists Go For Breakfast | HARRY ENFIELD | Reaction 

I always thought that Harry's American Tourist characters were actually a comparatively gentle piss-take because they're really quite nice well-meaning people. They just have an ignorance of other cultures and an excess of enthusiasm and bonhomie which is utterly alien to us Brits.

Jonny Depp says "Paul Whitehouse" is the best actor he's ever seen/known.

For somebody who lives in the UK and has been a chef for 24 years. Yeah it’s just like that with Americans at breakfast. They’re just too positive. It’s just something us Brits don’t like in the morning is positivity

You should see the two other sketches with the American tourists, they’re even better. Gay man on the bus and the Muslim woman in the newsagents.

All Harry Enfield's shows are worth watching.

That sketch really is a classic, very, very funny and your reaction got me laughing out loud... thank you so much, from a British fan! 😂

Many sports teams have ridiculous names.

I was walking with my wife on the Northumberland coast 2 days ago and i noticed an elderly gentleman with his wife trying to catch my eye with a broad smile and welcoming posture. I thought he might be slightly demented but when we eventually passed them, he politely expressed what a beautiful coastal path we were on, in, you guessed it, an American accent.

Harry Enfield is a comic genius and so is Paul Whitehouse. Harry Enfield has been about since the early/mid 80's. Absolutely hilarious...Let's not forget Cathy Burke. Watch Kevin and Perry sketches.

Oh no, no, no... call them a twat maybe but certainly not a 'twot' for the love of God ;)

Harry Enfield as Ronald, Alice Lowe as Pam, Paul Whitehouse as the dad and Simon Day as the cafe owner. Paul wrote for Harry initially (for the characters Loadsamoney and Stavros) and then co-starred in Harry's 90s BBC series ("Harry Enfield's Television Programme" and "Harry Enfield & Chums"). Paul then starred in The Fast Show (with Simon Day and others) before re-uniting with Harry for "Harry and Paul" (originally "Ruddy Hell! It's Harry and Paul").

If I ever see Americans acting like that, I'm getting my camera out pretty damn quick! That would be RU-vid gold. Lol

Keep holding on to British Humour- - It will never let you down- whatever you watch. I have 30 plus suggestions that you haven't even got close to yet. We are built on this. Enjoy your holiday. We won't go away- and our children will follow. I get turned on whenever I eat greek dips... ...I think I'm a hummusexual.

Many UK cafés have a ridiculously restricted menu. I've been to cafés that didn't serve chips!

Harry Enfield is a character comedian, you never see him on comedy panel shows as that would mean being himself. When you see him on chat shows promoting something he seems slightly ill at ease because he's not hiding behind a character. Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat) is much the same.

I recently saw an American channel on RU-vid where the wife told us all about her stuffed alpaca that she kept in the van, that she called Paki. This is a really offensive term in the UK, it’s the rough equivalent of the N word for Pakistani people. This reminded me so much of that. I could see her coming to the UK, sharing a table with a British person and telling them about her Paki that she keeps in the car!

Yes Harry and Paul did great sketches. I worked in a cafe in Edinburgh Scotland about 25 yrs back and and American couple came in. They were about the same age as these, she had a bit of a beehive hair do and he looked exactly like this Harry Enfield character. They were both over the top polite, and as with many of our American cousins their speaking volume was way up to eleven. As they stood at the counter she asked “Excuse me, what is the soup today ?” .I cast my arm behind me at the board and read out to them that it was beetroot. They looked at each other puzzled and asked in unison “What is that ?”. I went to the back kitchen and brought out a beetroot and showed it to them, they looked and shouted in unison “OOHHH ROOTBEAT”. Which I found quite funny. They said they would leave it today and may come back tomorrow. As they were going I said “Yes, tomorrow it might be nipturn”, but I think that was lost on them. The whole thing was hilarious, and what was puzzling is my boss, the owner of the cafe (she was not in that day) who is herself an American, had never heard of `rootbeat` either.

Not sure if anyone has suggested the fast show yet , but Paul Whitehouse was on that show , and it had a very similar humour to Harry Enfield’s shows . Paul and Harry have been working together since the beginning as far as I’m aware. Just want to say I’m loving the channel, I’m a fairly newish subscriber but you have some great reaction videos

Aww I've met some lovely Americans, I mean, I've also met some nut jobs too but oh well. Also genuinely met an Italian American, like proper new York accent and obv I ask him immediately if he's in the mob and he did not let me down, he looked at me and proper deadpan goes "eh! There's no such thing as the mob...capiche" 🤣🤣🤣 fucking legend was on a segway too

Jesus Christ those team names slew me 😂 My neighbors are probably thinking I had a stroke or something.

Hey guys hope your having fun, love from uk 🇬🇧 😊💜💚

Some years ago I was on holiday in Devon, which is in the 'West Country' part of Britain - it's a beautiful area and hence always popular with tourists. My wife and I went into a nice quiet cafe for afternoon 'cream' tea, which includes scones with jam and clotted cream. Suddenly in came an elderly American couple just like these two - I've never seen two people so excited. They sat down and proceeded to loudly 'gush' about afternoon tea - "Oh my God, I can't believe whe're in Devon, eating REAL DEVONSHIRE CLOTTED CREAM!" said the lady, and so it went on until we left. For me, ever since I first saw these American tourist sketches, it brings back memories of those two.

I would never call someone a twot... I'd feel too much of a twat.

Hey boomers, check out Harry Enfields older stuff, & little Britain, there hilarious 😆 🤣 😄 thanks guys 👍

Hilarious video, they have made some of the best sketches of more recent times. P.S. Gonna need you to work on that pronunciation of the T word, it is not pronounced like "swat", more like "splat"!

Seeing as you're also doing Top Gear clips, you might as well do Harry and Paul - Clarkson Island. Without stating the obvious, it's a Harry and Paul skit taking the piss out of Clarkson.

Another great video, but just to let you know that Twat rhymes with hat not with hot as you pronounced it. For some reason every American I have heard say twat pronounces it the way you did, add it to the list Boomer along with Aloominum not aluminium and many others. Two countries divided by a common language, lol. Keep up the good work

There are more of these, arguably even funnier! Here's where they catch a London bus and meet a gay guy: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vs0D4-pVQdQ.html Here's where they encounter a Muslim in a typical British corner shop: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sEEx3oUuiII.html

Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse started with Harry Enfield and friends. They split for a while doing their own series, with Paul Whitehouse started the fast show. They got back together with this being from their more recent shows.

At cafe in Paris, a loud American voice says - “gee honey it’s all in a foreign language!”

At least in the UK, I think we tend to have a pretty positive opinion of American tourists. They are generally reeeally polite and very respectful. Harry Enfield NAILS it with these characters and I'd love to see you react to the rest of them :D It's such a good representation of what we think Americans are like with their positivity and the different place names and stuff - really funny and well-observed. Thanks for the reaction, King of the Muppets 😁

Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse. Geniuses both. Johnny Depp once declared that Whitehouse was the finest actor he'd ever worked with.

It's an affectionate take. I've travelled to the US a lot and in general people are far more polite and friendly than we are.

I'm English, I don't think these Americans were behaving badly, it was just comedy based on the juxtaposition of British bleakness, introversion and cynicism with the kinds of Americans who are fairly sheltered, very warm and positive, and open.... then having these Americans say some fucked up shit. English people are generally much more shy and introverted in public than Americans, but obviously this is a generalisation. Yeah it's Harry Enfield, he's had various different characters within different shows and does short skits with each character.

I was in a b&b in great yarmouth once and as I entered the dining room with my dog, an American literally shouted "god damn that dawg looks just like moms pibull" with a proper southern drawl, it was 6.30am I admit I gave him a dry smile an just walked past, who can be so happy that early?

Americans in their natural habitat are lovely. On three tours of the Western United States my sister and I met some great people - so friendly and genuine. ❤️

OMG 🙄!! I would never call a polite/annoying/overbearing American couple a " Twot " I would can them a " Twat ", as it's spelt 😇....

Hope you having a great time in Greece. Highly recommend (Kevin and Perry go large) movie really funny Harry Enfield flim but extremely rude

How did the American woman know the BRITISH spelling of "paedo"?

@King Boomer, we use the word twat here both as a noun and as a verb. E.g. we can twat somebody for being a twat which translates into English as we can hit someone very hard for acting like a lady's front bottom. Is that enough of being in the English-speaking world for you to be going along with? Never mind them talking, singing and dancing about supporting paedos it sounds very kinky to me that both of you would unashamedly admit to being in Grease - so is that the musical or the lubricant? I'm guessing that it's the latter rather than the former because after your last very short video we all know how you feel about musicals, don't we? 👍🤣👍

twAt not twOt.

I was in pizza express in Soho, London. My wife and I sat at a table for 4, and the waiter asked, “ do you mind sharing “? We said no it’s ok. A husband and wife from USA sat down. Being English we raised the menus so we couldn’t see them. Then we heard those dreaded words, “ hi there there we’re from Miami”. Our hearts sank, we peered over the menus, to be confronted by 2 big smiley faces🤦‍♂️TBF, at the end of the meal, they bought our pizzas, because “you guys are fun”, I bought the drinks in the pub opposite, The Nellie Dean.

The only time I’ve seen Americans living upto their stereotypes was in Mexico at an all inclusive resort where you didn’t get table service , and one of your countrymen sat his family down and produced a roll of dollar bills , one dollar bills , and literally said look after us and I’ll keep peeling these off !!

I thought the old American couple would tell us about the range of medications they're on & various things about their grandchildren.

Great stuff again KB. I'm a Brit and haven't seen this clip so thanx 😁 p.s. I think the "yanks" are often given a bad rap , yeah many of the "stereotypical" portrayals are not far off the mark but I've met many down to earth genuine, generous and "educated" Americans. Keep on keeping on KB, you Muppet !

It was indeed Harry Enfield. His best work was in Harry Enfields Television Programme and Harry Enfield and Chums, both from the 1990s. He also did later series called Harry Enfields brand Spanking New Show which, although still good, never reached the heady heights of the original 90s series'. Then he did Harry and Paul in the late 2000s and also played Prince Charles in a comedy series called The Windsors, which you've probably guessed was about the Royal Family.

Both guys Career's go back to the 80's, but only joined up after the brilliant series ''The FAST SHOW''. HARRY'S CHARACTER'S ARE ENDLESS.

There are a few "American Tourists" clips with these two just as great.

Hiya King Boomer, I thought you would of taking this vlog as an insult, instead of seeing the funny side of it, but gladly I was proved wrong, I was howling with laughter when Harry's character said I've always wanted to be a peado, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England

You've got to check out harry Enfields south African pharmacist skit.

It is also the British reaction Brits are private people and like to stay Private. One discerning American comedian once said the British do not say hello they say sod off! I like Americans but boy can they talk why use ten words when fifty will do!

Greece is so beautiful.Have a great time guys.

I always feel that Britain was a little short changed in the stereotype dependent. American's are know for being friendly and kind. Italian's are famous for amazing style and coolness. China, great at maths. India, tech wizards. French, great cooks. The British bad teeth and Bo'Oh'O'Wa'er!

Harry Enfield characters became popular on our Saturday Night Live in the 80's with 'Loadsa Money' a plasterer who constantly boasted about how much money he earned and Stavros a Greek Kebab shop owner, it was compulsory viewing at the time.

Boomer. We love American folks. You need to understand that the British sense of humour takes the P out of everyone and anything. Including ourselves. It’s all just humour. If you can make folk laugh you have done your job.

Harry Enfield so funny and brilliant! Check out gay nazis 1/2 so hilarious 😎👍

Is that Carly D’Amato’s little brother? Sure hope that poor kid got a new agent, must have been traumatised by this and the Inbetweeners!

Have you watched any fast show clips with Paul Whitehouse and Charlie higson? Absolute genius duo

Funny as hell, they take the P out of all people including English so don’t take offence!

Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse are legends in British comedy....ooh you've got a lot great clips coming your way...enjoy searching them out.Enjoy Greece, beautiful country with so much history.stay safe guys.

Harry Enfield is a classic from back in our Friday night live. he is probably best known for his Kevin and perry skits (also a movie). Another good duo is Armstrong and miller. my particular fav is the world war 2 pilots..Link Below ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r_b1Y-Rl_Uo.html

Equally, it's a justified piss take of Britains disservice , and lack of consideration too.

There is an unwritten rule with us British, if we make fun of you, we actually really like you. The enthusiasm and joy of the American couple on ordering breakfast is counterbalanced by our complete and utter disregard and contempt for service that rivals the French. The pi55 take of the American football teams is twofold, firstly we can’t get our heads around how you name your teams and secondly how you assume that football in the rest of the world is American football. Other than that, we love you.

You have to watch peekaboo sketch by Harry Enfield

Contrary to stereotypes, Americans are usually well behaved abroad and almost always willing to have a chat......as a nation they’re nuts, nut person by person they’re really nice.....

More Harry Enfield around 10-15 years after the Chomondley Warner “Women Know your Limits”. Paul Whitehouse featured in the original Harry Enfield Show.

Look at the Harry Enfield American Tourists in newsagent sketch

Some of his characters on the Harry Enfield show are hilarious - like Kevin the teenager ! he works with a very talented lady called Kathy Burke !! Check them out .

Ron and Pammy from Badiddlyboing, Odaidaho. Just to be clear the teams were the Rhode Island Rapists, the Mincenatti Mincers, the Tampon Bay Terrorists and the Pencildelphia Paedos. (Hangs head in shame)

"We're from Badiddly Boing Oma-idaho!"

Imagine the football team jerseys😂 perhaps you could design your own based on the names he gave for a laugh

More of American Tourists please, there are a few.

I think I would prefer Americans like that to the image of the drunk, anti-social, fighting British abroad.

Harry Enfield is a genius. This sketch had me doubled over!...Hope you're both having a great time in Greece.

I think your videos are sometimes the only proper laugh i have in a day. Love to you two muppets.

The Muslim woman in the shop sketch is hilarious

Harry Enfield is a great show whichever one he’s in - my favourite is Harry Enfield and Chums

funny as f... yup, Harry Enfield is great...hope you two are having a great time in Greece :)

The word is twat, rhymes with cat, mat and sat.

It is Harry Enfield. He is a comedy genius. So is Paul whitehouse who is a much respected straight actor as well as comedy. It was very funny and you're almost halfway across the pond with your absorbsion of the Brit sense of humour.

The fast show is something you need to watch

There’ll never be another Harry & Paul. The best and funniest comedy character actors of all time.

Some years ago I was with a girl in a row boat on the Avon at Stratford, when some twat in another boat nearly collided with me, I can still picture him, skinny, a big glasses, a hideous perm and teeth like Champion the Wonder Horse. He was about 20 years old and was this "type" of American. Think 80s version of Eugene from Grease. I made some jokey sort of comment as we nearly hit each other, can't remember what I said but I remember his opening and one and only line, "Hi, I'm from Los Angeles and we just held the Olympics". It was one of those occasions that I responded perfectly..."Yeah, I'm from Birmingham and I've just held her tits"...I said as a gestured to the girl in the boat with me. At that a rowed off leaving Ned Flanders in silence, the girl with me giggling and me feeling very pleased with myself.

Harry n Paul are legends....the German guy and George whitebread Yorkshireman at the bank....classics

Harry Enfield and Chums

Pensyldelphia Paedos - I enjoyed that. Great reaction bud.

I'm from the uk and I've been to America 5 times, and I've found most Americans to be friendly and generous. Having said that I have been asked some really daft questions, including that old chestnut 'do you know the Queen '. Quite poignant considering the sad news this week regarding her majesty. RIP Queen Elizabeth 2

Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse in one of their finest performances. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to watch their show, their observational comedy is Genius! Also the “Fast Show”, is another great British show from the 90’s.

Harry and Paul as "Ralph and Ted". Possibly the most English (Not British) thing ever.

Nice touch to give the Embrace The Suck 21 lads a nod.

I used to watch Harry Enfield back in the day and don't remember seeing this sketch, hilarious 🤣

Speaking of tourists, I would love for you and the queen to watch Kevin & Perry Go Large 🤣🤣🤣 It's one of Harry Enfield's most popular characters in a feature film where him and his mate to to Ibiza and hilarity ensues! Seriously, you will laugh your asses off! 🤣🤣🤣

I’m from the U.K and I watch you just to see your reaction to all this clips, you are just as entertaining to watch.

I showed this to my American friend and she loved it . You should check out the other sketches with the American couple in it .

Yup, Harry Enfield. I have a recommendation for you. Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle, series 1 Episode 1. Superb standup from who I consider to be the UK's most intelligent comic.

That was TOO funny 🤣🤣. Harry Enfield is a legend

What A Muppet! You have stumbled upon 2 of England's National Treasures.....Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse...ENJOY!

You need to checkout the "Fast Show" & "Goodness Gracias Me", the indians (bhindi not feather) going for "an English" is such a gem of comedy!

King Boomer Channel I'M Sorry BUT Where Is This FUNNY,?????????, Harry Enfield Was NEVER In My Mind Very Funny, I Well Remember His Act On Cesspit Channel 4, IN The 1980's And He Hadn't Improved Since,!!!!!!!,.. 🤐🤐🤐,.

The Tampon Bays 😆
