Dad, these lot want a high speed electrified rail from Handscare to Birmingham. Can we do that? Yeah, jus’ need t’ get us some four be two be four be two be.
I know a man who lives next a prison. I asked him if he minds living there and he said: "I'm not worried. If any of them escape, they're not hanging around"
I know a man who lives right next to a chemical factory, I said to him are you worried about the pollution? “ He said, “ the shit coming out of those two hundred foot chimneys doesn’t fall on my house, it falls on yours” nuff said.
Really??? You mean they didn't just invent characters out of thin air? Never heard of such saucery, comedy based on reality? Sounds completely bonkers.
Seemingly simple ideas they come up with but brilliant. Two old blokes talking, two posh scaffolders, two can-do-that builders, the horse race owners....
And unfortunately you're the exact cliche of a client; expecting the work, cheaply, with a smile, with no roadblocks or unforseen issues. There's gotta be some meeting-in-the-middle, right? "got a job here, client wants it perfect, first time, they want you to smile and nod at them like 'the help' for the duration, and they want you to willingly/happily accept the job at a cheaper rate to make the process inexpensive, notwithstanding material costs, weather, time or skill." And some builders are _unwilling_ to do that? 😮
The thing is, Ben Swain says they're half an hour from Thame Parkway, and Brill is about half an hour from Thame, and Brill did indeed used to have a Metropolitan line station. And I think it's that that this sketch is alluding to. /s
I’ve worked on the sites since I was 17 (currently 31) and Harry’s hair and clothing choice alone buckled me 😂 the most accurate thing I’ve ever seen on screen lmao
It genuinely scares me that comedies made just 20 years ago are deemed “just as offensive” as stuff from the previous century. It’s a shame that comedy is so restricted because you can’t offend anyone or talk about anything.
People say the satire is based on the fact that builders are the opposite of this. But I felt like it was more an embellishment of how some builders are blasé about being able to do really hard skilled things. They rarely say they can’t do something.
They do. But people expect builders to live on minimum wage. When they do find a price they deem deserving for rough builder they realise they shunned the good ones. 😂
@@johnmartinez7440 You also have to not talk down to them like they're absolute plebs. You probably think you're not doing that but chances are, you are.

Haha love it. That's so funny.
Massive fan of these two and have never saw these before. Brilliant
You never watched Harry and Paul?
@@BeardyGit89 yes just never saw these two “ characters “
@@FUNKspex ?? Are you implying they aren't characters? Lol
@@BeardyGit89 Enjoy your night
@@BeardyGit89😂
I haven't seen this sketch before with Harry and Paul. Very funny.
Is it though
@@alrightlove6317 Yes it is.
Theres another one where they build a car that's missing from the video that's good

Was that man George Carlin
That's a good point.

Still waiting for that ring road around Barnstaple
yeah innit, sick of getting stuck in traffic around bickington
Only been once, had a nice trip out delivering to a holiday camp near there early season few years back nice place
@@oddities-whatnot arrr its lovely down here, if you come again i recommend the North Devon coast. truly beautiful

The Racing Post newspaper is from around the 29th October 2007
That was my 23rd birthday.
It’s only now, seeing them all together like this, that I notice the building clips are all the same
Which sort of adds to it. I like the one spade of dirt most.
@@blackmightcrash8017 They'll be using a shovel not a spade.
In depth, this is the opposite of what builders usually are... quick, willing, inexpensive, affordable and cheap and cheerful.

Well that’s their job. Any other profession if you don’t do the work to the deadline and to perfection then you get the sack.
@@lotuseater7247"any other profession would get the sack"

There's also Bullington prison nearby which does indeed have a wing for the peados
"What you want, 1.5 million homes in five years? Dad, can we do that" "What, in five years? They think we're crazy or summut!"
(Cue them getting the 4b2b4b2bs off the truck and building 1.5 million homes in the course of a single afternoon)
I did wonder where that prison appeared from as I was going through Corfe the other day.
Was more impressed with the navigation ability of the joyriders from Northampton!
Brilliant- those guys are comedy geniuses.

'Wenger joins Spurs' is a clue that what's being depicted is an upside-down world.
@@brianw289 I didn't see that.
This is satire because honest building firms in Britain don’t exist
They do. But people expect builders to live on minimum wage. When they do find a price they deem deserving for rough builder they realise they shunned the good ones. 😂
@@Boxercamperwhynot Very true
“Odd Kid” was the most underrated sketch!
If only they made comedy like that now.
Anybody got their number?
They’re very busy at the moment
It's 424242

The funniest thing is its always the same montage 😂

Has anyone got their telephone number because any builders ive dealt with don't even answer the fucking phone😂😂
mostly they are on holiday as well

How did they get live footage of the Ministry of Justice planning HMP Five Wells at the end??

awesome

That's the great thing about the working class. Make them a cup of tea, pronounce your 'a's as 'ar' and they can't do enough for you.
Not in my experience at all. Give them an inch and they'll take a yard.
Not sure about the "a" thing but, generally, treat them with respect and you get it back.

Cersei Lannister looking for a country retreat
I believe that is Sophie Winkelman, (Big Suze), she was always loitering about the countryside looking for a big house to be built for her.
What's the joke here?
You have to have had dealings with builders in real life to get the joke.
