Clarkson? Oh, it was on Top Gear another comment said. Really WTF cares? Man's a twat. A contrarian on purpose, childish on purpose, and ooooh, he may or may not have opinions on pollution but if he does they're probably controversial like the naughty sort of big rebel that he is. The massive twat. Really, his spiel is sort of insulting to the entire human race, somehow. Like he's let the rest of us down just by choosing to act that way. Surrounds himself with his little suckup mate who seems to idolise him and wish he could be... Jeremy Clarkson. Jeebus Cripes who would ever wish that? And then the other bloke who's probably not too bad but there's some subjects I wouldn't want to get him going on about. Wouldn't want him driving your taxi. What a state.
Hilarious how this being on top gear has led to so much obsession with it (including from me). Shackletons are still in business you know. They're grand.
She was a dear family friend of my parents . Her stage name was Josie Brown and and she lived in Bradford and ran a small sweet shop next door to my parents drycleaning shop on Manchester road Bradford . This was the highlight of her career as the advert was shown for many years even after her passing in the 90’s . She was often in extra parts in emmerdale farm ... the gaffer ... and the flying lady . She had a son who lived in Australia and used to stay half the year with him . She had many famous friends of that time and was fondly referred to as mother . She’s much missed by us and you could never have met such a kind lovely person as her 🙏🏽
Aw, she sounds lovely. As far as Bradford goes, the whole country's gone down the shitter. This is what happens when you don't invest in communities. When governments starve vital services, like schools and housing. Kids grow up knowing their country doesn't want them, society doesn't respect or value them. Society has invested nothing into them, so they aren't invested in society. They've very little to lose. Endless years of Tory government have worn down right through the soles of people's shoes. Deliberate under-investment as policy. Same thing the water companies do, then use "emergency measures" as a matter of course when they've just cheapskated themselves into an "emergency". There's always money for police, never enough for schools, playgrounds, community centres. Always money to punish the symptoms of crime, when you could spend that money 10 times more effectively by reducing the causes of crime. In the old days, you wouldn't commit crime because you'd be ashamed in front of your neighbours. People knew each other and you cared what they think. No more. People don't feel like they belong to their community, or society. Tory philosophy doesn't even admit that "society" and "community" exist, except when they're trying to cadge favours off it, or dump severely mentally ill people in it. People keep voting for greedy, miserly, nasty people, then they look around and wonder why society fucked up, and assume that poor people are probably to blame somehow. Or people who don't look like we do, even if their family's lived here 60 or 70 years, and there's grandfathers among them who were themselves born right in the Bradford Royal Infirmary. It's obviously some fellow poor person to blame (and you are poor, if you're not rich). Don't look at anyone who has, y'know, money or power. What do _those_ have to do with society?
@@greenaum yes we remember her very fondly x my parents are now 92 and I’m in my 50’s and so saddened by the degradation of the inner city where we lived for decades . We’ve ended up moving to a rural area for the sake of peace and quiet. The city is full of poverty and crime it’s really heart breaking to see what was once a brilliant city turned into ashes . I hope to God things will change but it’s highly unlikely once the rust has set in its very difficult to revive a city . We have our Bradford council to blame and southern Government who have left the north a poverty stricken abyss .
It was "They have over a hundred to choose from" which made me and my girlfriend laugh, but not until we'd shouted at the telly in harmony, "Yeah, all the bleedin' same!!" Then we'd laugh. It was also her "telephone voice" priceless. My favourite advert of all time and a cult classic!!!
Jeremy and Richard built an old person's car and used two of Shackletons' chairs for the back seats, you know. It was a good episode from the current season.
was howling when I heard this on Moylsey, he just dragged it out of nowhere. amazes me where somebody would still have the video of this ad on tape. Thanks a million, made an old man smile :-)
I sky+ this episode of top gear when this episode originally aired you know and I've decided to what it again and come on here and watch this advert again you know, Thank you top gear, love that show you know
I uploaded the same advert about 4 years ago . Woke up Monday morning to an inbox full of comments saying Top Gear, You Know! and the like. Classic advert that is only nostalgic to people over 35 and living in Yorkshire!
Subtitles: “It’s ground to find a comfortable chair when you’re getting all of it or you’ve got arthritis my knees got this from shackletons you know shackletons original high seat never thought it it’ll be so easy to get in and out of her she send their brochure then went to showrooms made over a hundred chairs to choose from. *Shackletons high seat chair, it’s ugly”*
Ive had the exact script narration for this ad embedded in my brain since the last time I saw this living in NE UK from back in around 1978! 40 years and THIS is what I remember verboten?!?!
@poysian67 hah i`m a batley man myself and your comment cracked me up as much as reminiscing over the advert did. noone i knew ever know where the hell shackletons was either. i reckon they didnt exist. as legendary as the f***ing mikes carpets adverts which are still going strong. batleys golden mile... love it.
I saw Clarkson joke about it on top gear and remember it from when I was a kid, I didn't realise it was so well known cos I thought it was just a small business in batley a short walk from me.
OMG - There's a limited edition, 50th Birthday Shackleton's chair on ebay. There's only 2 in the world apparently, you can be sure it's LOVELY! It doesn't get much better than this!!!!

Clarkson didn't come up with it. People have referenced this ad ever since it came out in the 70s/80s
Hilarious how this being on top gear has led to so much obsession with it (including from me). Shackletons are still in business you know. They're grand.
And they are still so easy to get in and out of you knooough !

Now Bradford is just full of criminals. RIP lady.

2023 😀
I remember when I was very young and I did my first TV acting job. This lady was also in the show. She was really lovely, like the chair 😃
You met our Josie ? She was such a lovely person abs very dear family friend .
It was "They have over a hundred to choose from" which made me and my girlfriend laugh, but not until we'd shouted at the telly in harmony, "Yeah, all the bleedin' same!!" Then we'd laugh. It was also her "telephone voice" priceless. My favourite advert of all time and a cult classic!!!
My grandma had exactly the same telephone voice 🤣
All cars should have a cat carrying system you know.
And a fake speedometer, you know

Bullet Tooth Tony and a phoney fog light, you know
