Right? Go to his show and get front row seats only to be embarrassed? It's part of his gimmick, just play along and you get the gift of telling that story to all your mates and family
Oh yes. A beautiful British pub landlord... You could almost feel the force of the 'P' of 'PATRONISED' and the impact of that face full of beery breath. (And I loved the dodgy groping 'hand gestures'.) Great stuff!
Al has got to be the greatest comedian the UK has ever produced. Makes my day when I watch any of his act(s) and always leaves me in tears of laughter. Keep it up Al.
The whole Pub Landlord character is such genius: Al walks a perfect tightrope between the dumb (but enjoyable) gags and the clever (but not preachy) social commentary. Every joke or routine is running on two simultaneous levels.
I once spent a few months working in South Korea. A young woman in the office told me that I was an Englishman, but not an English Gentleman! Why? Because I did not carry an umbrella! What social status is needed? she asked, to carry umbrella.
I could not answer that one. Just had to take the lower status . But I did get some respect. I noticed that whilst Koreans tended to ignore Americans, I was treated as a hero. They opened doors for me, asked me to pose for selfies with them. fetched coffee for me in the office. So why? “We all admire Mr Harry Potter” explained the boss.
I was called a gentleman because at an office Christmas Party I held back the long hair if a woman who was throwing up in a toilet after a surfeit of alcohol -I did not even know who she was so apparently that made me a gentlemen as far as all the other women were concerned !!!
My mum told me "a gentleman supports at least half his weight on his elbows". She also told me "if you are not in bed by 11pm then give up & come home" Ah, the memories of a teenage dirtbag.
Personally I always walk on the outer side of a footpath. Especially when I’m with my daughter. If anyone’s going to get run over due to a car hoping a curb I’d rather it be me than her and hopefully have a chance to get her out of harms way. Call it what you like “gentleman” or not that’s just what I do.
That is actually a tradition dating back hundreds of years (in England at least) going back to when a passing horse and cart might splash a muddy puddle onto the nearby pedestrians before street tarmac and drains were invented.
I wish I could find the clip of Al talking about equality and what young women did with it. He was saying how they could have used the new freedom to rise above men's standards but instead they ended up lying in the gutter with us (something like that anyway, it's been a while) The things he said were profound, true and very funny but I can't find that particular show anywhere. It was the mention of a cloak over the puddle that made me think of it because he used a similar line in that show. Maybe it was later in the show this clip was from. Anyone any idea?
I think it was when he was discussing the (then) popularity of the Spice Girls and the deeply regrettable advent of "Girl Power" and all of its disastrous effects.
Great. I like to watch Time Gentlemen Please, every three years or so.. just long enough to forget it.... Bloody great comedy. COW! (might be on youtube).
Not many you can call 'ladies' nowadays, especially not where I live. Most of the females now are just like the men, pissed up and shouting all over the place . I'm sure there are still some nice ladies out there somewhere, let's hope I can find one when the time is right. I'll be doing the lottery that week too
A wise man gave me 3 steps... that man was Terry. Step 1) complaint the hair, this is a sure fire way of pulling a bird. Step 2) if for some reason Step one should fail and you have to buy them dinner just say "I also like that" when ever they say anything. Step 3) should only be used in the most dire of emergency!!! And I do mean DIRE EMERGENCY!!!! You can say "i love you"

and then everyone stood up and clapped

A true gentleman removes the dishes from the sink before he pisses in it.
Damn right
My brother always takes his hat off before hitting a lady.He keeps it on for plebs.
If anyone, anyone would ask me to come to the stage, I would die of heart attack. Rob has balls of steel. Respect my dude. 👍💪😎
Great comedian, would hate to be in his audience though not gonna lie
Just don’t sit in the front two rows.
Have been at one of his gigs - he's really good with the audience.
The front two rows are a hazard zone as I once learned the hard way, since then I book seats on the first floor or a few rows back.
I like getting roasted I'd sit in the front just to laugh at myself

A real gentleman gets out of the bath to take a piss.

Only if she is in it also...

I am exactly the same way my good sir.
But what about the muggers lurking 👀 in wait in the alleyways? 😮
