I don't know about "better", but Mark Heap's "Dr. Alan Statham" hitting on Saskia Wickham's "Chaplain" in Green Wing is hilarious and really quite unsettling...
What I really love about this is, having been involved in many corporate functions years ago, the conversation is very near the truth in the underlying message. It’s just conveyed in a hilariously open and frank manner!! 😅😂
The whole idea is funny but I actually find the way he says the "yah" at the start made me giggle the most, that idea of someone not listening one bit and making those impatient noises
@@clemfandango7052 She isn't a member of the royal family. She is married to a _relative_ of the royal family - a first cousin once removed of the Queen - but that's not quite the same thing.
@@commentbellow8185 Well... to be honest, I don't know of any legal or officially recognised definition of the phrase "royal family", but if you go to the official web site of the British Royal Family and look at the section headed "Members of the Royal Family", you will find that the Lord and Lady Frederick Windsor are not listed. To the best of my knowledge, the Lord and Lady Frederick Windsor have never performed any royal duties, in case that might be considered relevant. I think you have to draw the line somewhere. If you count everyone who is descended from a British monarch as a member of the royal family, then there would be many thousands of members. I suppose if you restricted it to male-line descent, there would be rather fewer, but even so, once you get to three generations removed from a monarch, it starts to seem a little tenuous.
Nailed it. These types of men can be found concentrated in London, 'working' for big companies on a gross salary, shmoozing prospective clients in order to bag them as being 'on our books' and utterly irritate the hell out of me. 🤨
He absolutely ought to have had a cameo on Ashes to Ashes - I would really liked to have seen him and D.C. Ray Carling knocking back a few pints down the pub after work, setting The World to Rights.
"I'm afraid pretty intelligent women repluse and frighten me. I shall withdraw my offer of sex and scuttle away in horror." Brilliant, just brilliant! XD
No. No it wasn't. He had many tv series, a hit record, countless dvd sales and live tours. How does any of that suggest to you that the show was underrated? You're just an unoriginal moron who decided to be the 'underrated' comment idiot in this thread. You could've been the 'plot twist' cretin or the 'fun fact' loser but you went with the 'underrated' thing. Pathetic.
I didn't know her name, so when you said Winkleman I checked and she is indeed related to Claudia Winkleman. I adore that woman. She is my spirit animal.
They breed in healthy civic blood from time to time, as seen with Kate or Diana, to dilute their degenerated, incestuous cesspit with fresh genes. But as seen with Diana's boys, when they grow older, the sick part starts to get dominant again!
Unfortunately we have not all known at least one version of the woman, you know the fictional character of one who has put in the work, has the skills and made the effort just like her male colleagues. But have all known at least one version of the self-entitled, self-absorbed, ignorant, quota-queen beneficiary woman who got where she is by way of her ownership of a vagina despite being under qualified, lazy and indolent and who pollutes the workspace with her toxic entitled attitude.
@@TheWarforged It is disgusting for you or anyone to speak this way, people who think like you do are more than repulsive in the eyes of all women including the anti-feminist women like me. Maybe that fake success of those toxic women is the result of the faults of the male co-workers of those women who let these kind of women in the job in the first place in exchange of taking advantage of these women by abusing their powers!!
These pop up in my feed now and then. Can we just all take a moment to acknowledge how freaking brutal and cool Enfield was back then? He'd never get a gig now.. ! PC or gtfo on broadcast tv.
His comedy is all about making fun of conservative thinking people and dismantling old sexist views. This one for example is showcasing how those people are afraid of successful women.
Ironic, seeing as how that's Sophie Winkleman, wife of Lord Frederick Windsor (son of Queen Elizabeth II's first cousin Prince Michael of Kent), also known as Lady Windsor haha
Harry Enfield is a comedy legend,i saw him filming in Watford one day for the character Kevin he does the teenager who keeps saying "what ever"!" a lot lol. I was very very very thrilled to see him do his character.
See the big rugby looking geezer in the background? They got all the little details for these corporate posh events to a T. Always been a strength of Enfield's programmes.
IRL Her husband really is an important man... On 14 February 2009, Sophie Winkleman became engaged to Lord Frederick Windsor, son of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent. They married on 12 September 2009, and since then Sophie Winkleman is entitled to the style Lady Frederick Windsor.
If you take offence to this, that's on you. That's your issue: offense is taken not given. This is comedy mocking the sexist posh git stereotype NOT the woman. But woke snowflakes who believes they are entitled to be offended by anything and anything which offends them must be censored or deleted, are exactly what's wrong with the world today.
Ironically Sophie's family are 'very important' people and she married Lord Frederick Windsor. Whereas Harry Enfield worked his way up from being a milkman.
I was in IKEA and I witnessed posh hard of hearing. An east again woman was telling posh lady what was on offer. She just kept saying I don't understand. Yet the lady spoke better English than me, clearly she was English. The posh lady just switched off soon as she spotted the ethnic difference. I had to translate, I'm a geordie but white. Then lady said I see.. no thank you and walked off. I felt so annoyed as even I have had that experience living I the South, soon as they hear my accent
Rubbish, nobody is triggered but you; to make this tried old Daily Mail comment every time you see a joke about sexism and pretend its a sexist joke. You're as dim as Tim.
Was a background voice for the Spitting Image series around the same time as Steve Coogan. His shows from the 90s were a kind of "Dick Emery" series some 20yrs hence, but his finger was always on the pulse with current trends and events. Good writers like Ian Hislop and Geoffrey Perkins all helped his show stand out. If you want more subtle humour, look for A Bit of Fry & Laurie, both of whom have trodden very different successful paths since the shows.
"I withdraw my offer of sex..." He is so used to his feeling of superiority, that even after that clear defeat he makes an statement THAT arrogant! Simply great comedy!
Back then, in character, she didn't make the grade for "Posh git", but what's strangely amusing, as time has elapsed, is that her real husband is Lord Frederick Windsor, and her half-sister is the well-known Claudia Winkleman. (And she is still remarkably attractive, IMO). Hard to tell whether the scene scarred her and impacted on her subsequent life decisions 😀
"I withdraw my offer of sex and shall scuttle away in horror" I must remember that line next time I have cause to use it.
Are you frequently prone to making offers of sex to women who later turn out to be unsuitable then?!
@@PreservationEnthusiast I don't remember.
“… you are a very attractive young lady, and it’s nice to have you here for decorative purposes…” 🤣🤣🤣
No one does 'creepy posh' better than Harry Enfield.
It is great
The creepy slur is a bit tired these days
Yah ya ha yaha
watch Rob Newman's 'Jarvis' sketches
I don't know about "better", but Mark Heap's "Dr. Alan Statham" hitting on Saskia Wickham's "Chaplain" in Green Wing is hilarious and really quite unsettling...
big suze!! she's stunning
Could be a line from the script.
She's not stunning
+Ian Robson
the black women calling her self Patrica Clarkson names Victoria is it
she is better than that
The irony is she's basically royalty in real life
What I really love about this is, having been involved in many corporate functions years ago, the conversation is very near the truth in the underlying message. It’s just conveyed in a hilariously open and frank manner!! 😅😂
Ah Harry is a genius. His stuff would be cancelled now. Too many people are offended when he portrays a person they might see in themselves 🤣🤣
He's a comic genius. legend
Good sketch, and unfortunately true to life! Harry Enfield, comic genius 👍🇬🇧

Genius the Enfield. Never seen this before but just had me rolling up! 5*
the man knows how to scuttle

Sophie Winkleman is so beautiful.

Oh shit, the race issue exists? There's always one.

I bloody love Big Suze.
Harry Enfield is a great actor.
I've never seen anything from Henry Enfield before today but I think I'm in love....scuttle..hehe
"I'm afraid pretty intelligent women repluse and frighten me. I shall withdraw my offer of sex and scuttle away in horror."

Well, not "pretty intelligent", but "pretty, intelligent".
This sketch nails it. Men are afraid of women who are more intelligent than them.
I know it’s 11 years since you wrote this but only pricks just repeat the lines from the video that we have all just watched! Your a bore

no, it's utterly cringe.
Political propaganda attempting to pass as comedy, complete gobshite.
haha, enfield sure miss his shows, great to see them here on youtube
IT'S SUZE! BIG SUZE! SUZE IS HERE!
This is the type of person whom so many choose as their MPs and to whom the English people have mostly deferred throughout their long history.
Well, she is a very attractive young lady
Top class scuttling!
This is superb comedy! :)

Of course she is. It's easy to move up the ladder if you're a good looking tarty bint. :-)

@@Trikeboy2 conservatives often don't get the difference

Who would winkle their winkle into Winkleman?
Absolute quality..
OMG THATS HILLARIOUS!!!
This Harry Enfield guy is sooooo funny...!
"very attractive" and "waste of time" are rarely two phrases that are in the same sentence when talking about humans lol
I second that motion.
I wasn’t looking at the screen while listening to this and thought it was Boris.
Dangerously true.
Harry Enfield at his best!
This is so good.
ENFIELD!
LOVE HIM SO MUCH!
and Lady Frederick Windsor now
His responses, once rendered into thought balloons, are all too plausible.
Sophie is stunning
He did an excellent job of scuttling.
Harry Enfield is a national treasure. Ps. I might have fallen in love with this lady.
It's been 3 years but - watch the TV show Peep Show. She's a character that makes an appearance once or twice a season.
What is her real name /actor
Age?
So attractive 😘
@@empireman1077 Sophie Winkleman. No idea what age but I'd guess she's in her late 40s or early 50s.
I think she married into Royalty/nobility.
@@raoulduke344 👍
age 41
I thought it was Her from Game of Thrones
That attitude he shows towards her at the start is only too real. Fascinating how people are often only deemed "important" due to who they know.
The stunning Sophie Winkleman. She's appeared in Two & A Half Men and as Big Suze in Peep Show, amongst other things.
Absolutely spot on,
Stone me................it's Alan Sugar!
