Congratulations Megan! You're the first of the Canadian/American 'reactors' to react to these 'Polish Cafe' sketches, in spite of my recommending a number of times to various reactors I follow and their requests for more Harry Enfield sketches. Harry captures the 'middle-aged' man being impressed/infatuated with the young Eastern European women working in the cafe so well - and dare I say resonates close to home, having witnessed this first-hand. The mix of charm and bluntness of the women are beautifully portrayed here by Morwenna Banks, Laura Solon and Sophie Winkleman.
I am? How strange! I thought more reactors would have reacted to this! I can see why you've recommended it! 😊
@@MeganRuth It's very poignant and well observed, and probably the only understated 'true-to-life' character Harry plays, in contrast to his other characters 🙏😊

@@MeganRuth Can you speak any languages other than English?
"In spite of"
"infatuation"
"You are the first"
You need to slow down a bit. You are coming across a bit heavy like a stalker.
Utterly realistic experience in the Polski shops.
True. Still funny , though
you Really need to see his "i saw you coming". loads of them
Oh yes! Absolutely!
Agree. These are the best of all.
Harry Enfield's sketches work on so many levels. Just brilliant.
Many years ago... An old friend of mine told me about the time he visited a Chinese Takeaway late one night... While he was on his way home from the pub... And after placing his order and paying for it in advance... He sat on a bench inside of the takeaway... And waited for his order to be ready... And while he was sat there minding his own business... He could hear the staff in the back speaking in Cantonese with one another... Lets just say that they were being quite unkind about some of the other customers that were in there... What they were totally unaware of... Is that my friend spoke several languages fluently... This was because of his job as an interpreter for foreign students at University... Languages he spoke fluently included... Cantonese... Mandarin... Japanese... And Korean... So when his order was finally ready... He calmly walked up to the counter... Grabbed his bagged up takeaway order... And speaking in fluent Cantonese... He gave them a piece of his mind... About their lack of respect towards some of the other customers... Before walking out of the door vowing never to return again... I would love to have been a fly on the wall to see the look on their shocked faces... Never assume you can't be understood when being unkind.
I love that story! Thanks for sharing 😊 And yes, I fully agree!
I grew up to Aussie parents in Hong Kong then I moved back and worked there so I had a good grasp of Cantonese. Always fun calling out people talking about you thinking you can't understand.
@@goodshipkaraboudjan Absolutely my friend. 👍
@@goodshipkaraboudjan Have you ever heard of the RUclips Polyglot called Moses McCormick AKA Laoshu505000?... He sadly passed away of an undiagnosed heart condition back in 2021... Just a few days before his 40th Birthday... He was the world's greatest Polyglot... And he could speak more than 50 languages... But he could also read and write in all of them too... He had an incredible talent for learning languages... And he had over a million subscribers on his channel from all around the world... His interaction videos are still available on his channel too... He has a long video compilation available to watch... Where he speaks in many of the languages he'd learned... And watching him having so many conversations with so many nationalities is absolutely incredible to see... Search for this exact title after the arrow to see his compilation video... Cheers mate... 🍺-----------> Laoshu505000 Level Up Medley!

To put this in context, in the Noughties many polish people came to the uk after Poland became part of the EU. The polish women were perhaps seen as exotic for some of the british men. Harry here plays a particularly hopelessly infatuated character.
Ah okay! That makes sense. Thanks! :)
They're also sought after for being more traditional & typically feminine than Westerners.
@@RobertTaylor-gz2fu But they are also incredibly false and manipulative, as shown in these sketches. So, what do men want?
@@user-vh8by6wf5x
They want it all
because they're worth it 🤣🤣🤣
@@user-vh8by6wf5x Sex, what do women want?
HE comedy is observational humour.Nuances of rudeness is one.Its subtle stuff.
The second shop, Cafe Polska - I used to live round the corner, it's Brackenbury Road, Hammersmith! Though of course it's not called that.
Why is every Polish girl called either Magda or Kasia? I'm convinced it's a conspiracy.
Agnieska also.
This sketch is crazy that's what makes it hilarious
This Sketch is crazy that’s what makes it hilarious.
Are you English?
You sound like somebody who doesn’t have a grasp of meaning or language .
Megan, i am not sure how funny that was i along with harry was in a trance most of the time lol.
Thanks megan ❤loved it
Hi Megan. One of the sketches from this is missing. There is one with Paul Whitehouse as a "wide boy" in the shop, and the plot is about a birthday card.
Oh no! What a shame. Thanks for letting me know!
@@MeganRuth My pleasure Megan. Anything to help. X
Ah yes, I remember that one. The wide boy had success with the girls because he was direct, even though he was a completely useless a-hole for them. Harry Enfield reflecting human nature in his humour yet again...
The harry and Paul series’, to me was the pinnacle of their careers.
If you like slightly surreal watch their sketch - the Confectioner
Blimey! I’d also put myself through that humiliation to get a capuchin at that price.
£3.80 at Leon (Moorgate) these days and I'm pretty sure Pret is very similar.
This is so bloody hilarious that this mate in this episode always comes inside there!😂Thanks for sharing Megan & have you ever been to the Harlequin Pub over in Angel London here? 🤔🍺
Thanks Falcom! No, I don't think I have!
I was once in a cafe in Old Street (London, UK) with similar staff. A socially awkward guy came in and started to talk to them, obviously a regular, and explained how he was playing in a musical theatre troupe rehearsing for The Sound of Music. The staff tried to be nice but the conversation became more and more stilted and awkward. Eventually, to fill an overly long silence, for some reason he just took a deep breath and started to sing Edelweiss. Each time he got tot he end of a chorus, he would stop laugh nervously and then begin the next. All the seated customers at this point mentally hid under their respective tables.
Oh , Christ. Cringe
Thanks for sharing 😅
0:35 The red head is Morwenna Banks eho was the first and only English cast member of Saturday Night Live. Before that she was in the Scottish sketch show Absolutely whoch is another sketch show you might want to check out.
Oh cool! I didn't know SNL had an English cast member. Thanks!
@@MeganRuthshe only lasted four episodes in season 20.
I first remember Morwenna Banks playing a little girl in a solo comedy sketch years ago, she also plays mummy pig in Peppa pig.
The two girls are both English. Great acting. The redhead girl is married to David Baddiel.
You may have mistyped, but Morwenna Banks, David Baddiel's wife, is the first redhead.
Don't forget the wonderful Alice Lowe - Horrible Histories, Darkplace etc
@@leec6707 Sightseers...brilliant!
When things become awkward in the cafeteria 😂
😅 She Shuts Down His Banal English Weather Talk with Technical Jargon from the BBC Weather 🌡️ Splendiferous Indeed 🏴🥂🌄🌄🌄4:10
I agree that talking a different language when English is spoken is rude, my girlfriend of 7 Years a Russian would do it constantly with her two daughters.
…. or ‘I saw you coming’ or ‘American tourists’
thanks Megan and do enjoy the rest of your Wednesday evening😀
Weren't you paying attention. It will rain lunchtime!
You're welcome! Same to you 😊
@@KenFullman don't think am not no.
Nice choice. For me, at first it seems to be about misinterpreting non-verbal signals but then none of the girls' behaviour makes much sense. But the confusion and awkwardness is relatable, funny and well-acted. You haven't done 'Peek-a-boo' yet (American tourists). Like these, there's a series of them - Harry at his best. Thanks again, Megan.
Ne’er seen this before. Absolutely brilliant. Thanks Megan
ne'er??
Check out a show called “absolutely fabulous” if you haven’t already.
It’s a good one 👍
Polish Big Suze 😍
"Hello Simon"........😮
😊😊😊😊😊😊❤
Hi Meg. I enjoyed the video.😊
I note your point about speaking in a language that is incomprehensible to someone else in the room.
English people sometimes complain if they enter a pub or shop in a Welsh speaking area, and the locals continue speaking in their first language of Welsh.
If you went into a shop in a French speaking area of Canada, how would you react if they carried on speaking French?
Isn't it a bit anglocentric to expect everyone to adjust to your language?
Just a thought..
Hi Lee! That's not what I meant at all. I meant that if the person who doesn't speak the language is purposefully left out of the conversation by the people speaking the other language, then it's disrespectful. The person doesn't even have to be English. It would be the same if I purposefully left a Spanish speaker out of the conversation while talking to my English speaking friend.
I miss the Poles. Damn Brexit. I miss the Romanian ladies even more. Frankly speaking, hope the UK gets back to Europe and we get more EU citizens again. Makes thia place much more fun!
It is the height of ignorance to me. The very first thing I learn if nothing else, is Please and Thankyou in whichever language is spoken in the country i am visiting
That was great acting, the pronunciacion of Polish words was so-so but the effort was phenomenal, 85% understandable, sadly weird intonation (a bit Czech?). There is longer compilation somewhere I tried translate in comments once
Wow, this dated! £1.60 for a cappuccino!!
hi megan came back to watch you cringe at 9 mins15, so delightful
*Incomprehensible comment* Eurgh. Eurgh!
"I'm a content creator" No, no you're not.
Harry Enfield Tim nice but Dim posh dinner party .lol .
Hi, I am also from an Eastern European country. Can you be more specific and say what the general similarities are between the women from an Eastern European countries and this sketch?😮
How many people from Eastern Europe do you know in general and have you already elaborated any statistics on this topic? Thx
Crap
@@kittyhawk9707 ?
@@marty6945 as i said crap.. nobody cares .. it was a comedy sketch ,, not an exercise in cultural and society norms and habits . nobody is going to take the time to analyse the various different attributes of the protrayed characters and how they refect modern day society .. It is a fucking comedy sketch ffsake .. go look at U Tube videos about Eastern European women if you are that bothered by it .. .
@@marty6945 bibble
Please don't say London, England. That's what the yanks say. It's just London.
Actually, not just the yanks. Canadians say it, too. Particularly those from Ontario because we have London, Ontario and it’s natural for us to specify as when we say “London,” we think of the one in Ontario. My family is from London Ontario so I will always specify :)
@@MeganRuth I was passing through North Bay, many years ago. Got chatting to a local who asked where I was from. When I told her London, she assumed it was London, Ontario, lol. I thought my accent would be the giveaway.
This 'reaction' video came on automatically. I really am not interested in how someone I have never heard of reacts to whatever. It' as idiotic as watching people on tv watching tv. Gogglebox. Why should anyone give a shit?
And you have a nice day too!
