My mother is just like this.

It's absolutely bonkers listening to it, especially when you've only popped round to introduce her to your new girlfriend.
I agree, I just have only been about 14 when this first came out - I didn’t get it. Now I’m 25 and these have me in stitches, we all know people like Janice and Ray!

Try growing up with these evil bastards, other races seem to be hard done by but I was treated like absolute shite by my ancestors they can all rot in hell. It's not all ponies & roses in the "white" world.
I love Ray's face when he says "it's a pound more than the carvery, but at that time o' year everyone goes a bit mad don't they." It's a real "Oooh I'm such a devil may care rebel, blowing an extra quid". It's SO Yorkshire!

I tried curried goat once, at an outdoor event in Leicester. I wanted to see if I was right that goat would taste like a stronger version of lamb. The curry was so strong that I'm no wiser now.
Goat curries are for special guests here. If we serve only chicken you'll be derided at. Mutton curry chunks or Rogan Josh is to go to with alcohol otherwise you are just insulting the guests. But yeah I'll pass on the plantains for some good old chapati and jeera rice. ✌️ 🖖
"They've made curry with a goat, they've made curry out of a goat" This is legendary! Always makes me really laugh, such a face she makes. Thanks Catherine! :)))
If this kind of couple visited an African city, the stories would be incredible. "how can I be racist, my great grandfather was a midget." I almost died.
I grew up surrounded by people like this. Even pizza was "funny foreign muck". There's another sketch where they say that Ray's not anti-French as he loves Inspector Cluseau films.
@@DemonKitty666_ I remember this guy too. His name is Derren Litten and he played the role of Ray very well but unfortunately he left the series after series Two so that he could write benidorm and was replaced with Nigel Betts in this sketch for series three and he was alright but not as good as Derren was.
@@KAZ132 So am I. The prospect centre is a shopping centre in Hull, but in this sketch Catherine' character Janice says "this is in Cleethorpes" meaning that Catherine has heard of the prospect centre but had got confused as to where it is. Prospect centre is is Hull not Cleethorpes.
@@tomspence8506 I was in Prospect centre yesterday.. It was chocker and yes. Its definitely in Hull... Have a good day fellow Hullensian 😊... Before it rains anyway 🌻
Reminds me of the old Aussie joke: How can you tell a planeload of Poms has just arrived? They shut off the engines but you can still hear the whining.
I absolutely LOVE THIS LADY! Thank YOU traditional Britain! God Save The Queen INDEED! She is your very own reincarnation of America's Archie Bunker! Thanks for sharing.
'Goooaat.' 'Taste of the Caribbean.' 'Don't ask.' 'It's a pound more than the carvery, but everyone goes a bit mad this time of year.' 'And that was with the voucher!' LMAO! SO like my dear old aunt and uncle.
it is; it is a small seaside town in northeast Lincolnshire, England. Yes, I believe that the joke is that they can't believe something so exotic is served in someplace they consider "normal" for them.
@@Wavygravydressedinnavy oh no. We moved to Devon ( not somewhere you would think there would be a wide range of food choices from other cultures ) but luckily we can get curry goat from a local Caribbean takeaway. Its amazing too as he follows his mom's family recipes. Maybe learn to cook it yourself ( I'm planning on that too ) 😊 Ps I just remembered my friend went to Cleethorpes and I'm sure she said they went to a restaurant that sold curry goat. Baraka(?) I think the place was called. Hope it is still open as she said it was delicious !
Thing is, if they went into Oxfam in November, they'd probably be saying "You'll never guess. Christmas cards out. I mean this is unbelievable. It's not even December yet and they're selling Christmas cards! Un-be-liveable!"
The thing is, I popped into my local Spar supermarket a few days ago and there was a stack of packaged mincemeat pies, which all went, and this morning there was an array of Christmas cards. The date? 14th October. Un-be-liveable. Robert, UK.
I know what meat they used in the curry. My family is from Jamaica. While we're at it; nearly every English person who has tried curry goat has had their life transformed.
The writers have outdone themselves with the goat curry. It so easy to go for the first cheap angle to get a weak laugh... but to tippy toe around a mine field of racist accusations without offence; made the final outcome hilariously sublime for me😍
My mum's from the North and going to her cousin's house is EXACTLY like this. No-one here in Australia seems to like Catherine but she's spot-on, haha :D
Talking about curry -- when I first went to live in South Africa I stayed in a hotel for several weeks before moving into a house. And whenever there was curry on the menu we all knew that it was the meat that was "going off" so they made a curry to disguise the taste. Needless to say I always skipped curry nights.
Ohhhh fried banana covered in batter goes really well with spicy curry, actually. The sweetness from the banana and spiciness, saltiness of the curry taste delicious. Fried banana are really common in SE Asia too. Infact, I saw a lot of similarities with the food in the Carribean with the ones in SE Asia especially when I saw Cardi B posted her hometown dishes on IG last time. Dishes like fried karipap (curry puff), fried meehoon and more.
Hello, Does anyone know where to find the "Battered veg" skit with Janice and Ray? It used to be on youtube, but I have not seen it in a while and I'm dying to see it again....
"How can I be a racist? My great grandfather was a midget." lol HILARIOUS
My favourite bit - I have used that phrase since😂
The disconnect of such a comment makes me rock with laughter
this line is sheer Genius

Some Russian couples of this age are exactly the same. Down to the mannerisms and facial expressions.
Lets Go Brandon !
These particular sketches seem to really stand the test of time. Almost funnier now than when they were first made.
Yes when I need a laugh and in these unsettling times(is very often) I look out for these older comedy sketches and I am never disappointed!

Almost makes me a bit ashamed as I still count the pennies,I wouldn’t say it aloud,but I would definitely think that!

She’s so brilliant. this sketch is by far my favorite along with the posh family.
I grew up in Hull and to be fair only knew a small handful of people like this. Now I live in Shropshire and hear this kind of comments more.
I'm not surprised.
They remind me of my aunt and uncle when telling a story.
OMG - me too!! Exactly!
Me too!!! Shan't say who though!!
"They made curry... out of a goat."
Classic!
I LOVE HER! She's an incredible comic! 🤣🤣😂😂

Curried goat and rice with gungo peas. Lovely
Another awesome U.K. comedienne! Brilliant! Cracks me up every time!
I look at this every chance I can get, especially coming up for Christmas like in June! LOL
Absolutely brilliant.
This is how exactly my neighbor Tracey nd her husband sounds like love it😂😂😍

This cannot be beaten - unless, of course, they are forced to eat a sandwich with grapes in it!
Or the Rice light. "the dirty evil lactose intolerant b*****

"They've made curry 🍛out of a goat 🐐" HILARIOUS! And the fried bananas 🍌 is even more HILARIOUS!
Those napkin flowers! 🤩
This is so true, especially of North Lincolnshire and East Riding.
Brilliant as usual 🤣
they are genius but so true how they say things
They’re both speaking Texas 😂
it is; it is a small seaside town in northeast Lincolnshire, England. Yes, I believe that the joke is that they can't believe something so exotic is served in someplace they consider "normal" for them.
I live not far from Cleethorpes and you’d be very lucky to find curried goat there. Fish & chips is about as exotic as it gets!
Hope you can get it somewhere close by though. It's just delicious! 😊

Ghost curry? That would be unsatisfying and insubstantial.
Absolutely! Goat curry ... the best ever ... with rice n peas n tings!
I wanna know where this place in Cleethorpes is 🤣
Isn’t this simply wonderful. What’s happened !
"they made curray ou' of a gaut"
17th November, brilliant 😂

Sadly she was already famous back in 2004 but stopped making this show soon after
