Rewatching series and saw this today. Genuinely one of the funniest scenes ever. It’s just ridiculous and so well played out. The juxtaposition of her shy demeanour then the delivery of the line... damn near killed me dead 😂😂😂
Absolute genius the guys that wrote League of Gentlemen it's one of those series that even if you haven't seen it for quite a while you will remember particular scenes and characters I've certainly myself gone through the box that many times and it's still a true classic today thank you guys for the entertainment
Loved the bit in the special, when the guild is giving a list of items for a voodoo doll. "A recent photo, a lock of hair, a bokkleorandoove." "forget the last one." PMSL
this is pure comedy genius,the little changes in the way she says every line are just amazing and make this one of the best comedy scenes i have every see :)
For many years, the standard way to ask for orange juice at the table in my house (at least if I was asking) became "ecscood be, cadda hadda bitta owange dooze?"
They reckon it is actually based on a street person who did come into a shop and say this very thing. A lot of their stuff is based on real events and people.
I don't know how they do it, but they are just brilliant. The masks, the make-up, the story and last but not least the acting are all extraordinary in the series. My all time favourite!
My son was a big fan of LoG (I'm 55) .. I just recently got into it .. now my grandson (7) says this is the funniest thing he's ever seen ... hilarious !!
If a new season is to come out, or a special.... I would love the adverts for it to just be Pam shouting, without any other context, "DO HU WAN WATCH LEG GENT AMEN ?? NXT WK."
HE FELL THROUGH THE BAR STEW! He was vertical, and then he was horizontal... and it’s the FUNNIEST thing there's ever been on television ever. PLAY IT AGAIN! PLAY IT AGAIN! PLAY IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN, EVERY CHRISTMAS, OVER AND OVER UNTIL THE DEATH OF RECORDED TIME! PLAY IT AGAIN UNTIL THE ROCKS MELT AND THE SEAS BURN! DEL BOY FALLING THROUGH THE BAR ON ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES! BURN IT INTO THE RETINA OF MY EYE SO THAT EVERY TIME I BLINK, I SEE A LIGHTBULB-TEXTURED IMAGE OF DEL BOY FALLING THROUGH THE BAR ON ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES, THE FUNNIEST THING ON TELEVISION EVER! AND WHEN I DIE AND SHUT MY EYES FOR THE LAST TIME, I’LL GO TO MY GRAVE LAUGHING AS I SEE DEL BOY FALLING THROUGH THE BAR ON ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES, THE FUNNIEST THING ON TELEVISION EVER!!! ...That's what you like.
The League of Gentlemen so often teetered on the brink of very dark, edgy black humour (which I love, for the record), but this is pure Monty Python silliness, and simply delightful.
