I have, when dealing with particularly annoying customers, used the line: "We do try to accommodate our customers, but not being a hotel, we find it almost impossible" repeatedly, and with malice-aforethought. Until i my Scottish supervisor overheard me doing it, almost busted a gut suppressing his laughter, and then told me to never do that again. After which I referred to him as Mr Dalliard, and he menacingly dubbed me Arnold. In retail, you get your laughs in where you can.

@mickeymcnaughton2555 3 года назад

That very naughty Comrade (actually Colonel) Malenski. In his lighter moments I feel certain that he would have been known for playing a few mean pranks on people after a vodka binge! I bet that after getting back to Moscow he would often reflect on how many times the model shop proprietor might be going through those lines and the "activated" routine any time a potential customer walked in and greeted him with THAT phrase. The comrade probably spotted an easy mark from the get go after observing the proprietor regularly carrying on a conversation with the invisible Mr Dalliard :-)

@goweresque 2 года назад

This sketch was broadcast in 1995 (in Series 4) and presumably thus written at some point after 1992 (when Series 3 was broadcast). Thus when Stephen says early on that it is '27 summers' since he had his instructions from Comrade Malenski, that takes us back to 1965 at the earliest. Yet he also asks 'How is Comrade Stalin?' indicating he'd been undercover since a time when Stalin was alive, which means pre 1953, when Stalin died. Thus anyone alive in 1965, even in the USSR would have well known that Stalin was dead, indeed Khrushchev who succeeded Stalin as leader had already been replaced himself, by Brezhnev in 1964. Odd for Stephen to not have picked up on the discrepancy, given his huge range of general knowledge!

@aristidetwain9117 2 года назад

I think the line is intentionally absurd - and, perhaps, meant to be a hint that the model salesman is in fact just plain mad and never actually met any Malenski. After all, it's pretty clear Mr Dalliard is only a figment of his imagination, too…
