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
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.😻
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.
The writing and acting is first class and absolutley spot on! But the names.... Trustafaria, Isabora, Nicemilla, Cirocia, Bongella... are hilarious in their own right! 😆
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 😂
@@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 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?! 👍🏼😆
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 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.
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!
So true, most of my sisters so called " Friends " are like this there all friends but won't do anything for each other unless you pay a ridiculous amount of money, they all have portfolios of themselves, artistic photos taken by friends of theirs, cost them fortunes for.
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!
