This has always been one of my favourite comedy sketches. I showed it to my sons when they were in their teens. Then I had to go through a phase of them saying to me "mother know your limits" when they wanted to be smart arses.
Quite right Lucy, know your limits! 😂😂😂 For the record, this was part of Harry Enfield's sketch show, This was intentionally filmed b&w, obviously the rest was colour, and it was broadcast in the early 90s. Me and most of my school watched it, and 'women, know your limits' became a British catchphrase for a few years.😋
@@bradlucy Good Reaction,as usual,but you missed the opening written announcement : "Women, Look,Listen and Heed" and ,instead of the old ,official,wording "A Public Information" Film , it said: "A Public Improvement" Film...lol
OMG, that reaction was absolutely priceless! Lucy shaking her head, whilst Brad was roaring with laughter, I love you two! 😂🤣 The key to this awesome sketch really, is that the archaic misogyny itself is the butt of the joke. Anyone who thinks the sketch itself is misogynistic is completely missing the point. Harry Enfield's shows are amazing, and so hilarious, just British comedy at it's best. Check out "Women Keep Your Virtue", or "Gay Nazis" next!
You two have such a great sense of homour. I seen others kind of miss the satire of vid and try to explain why it's offensive 🙈. In this case we just know Brad is going to say to Lucy "women know your limits" first chance he gets 🤣
I'm very interested to hear Brad's opinion on this topic. Didn't understand any of Lucy's deranged ramblings at the end, though. Maybe you should consider having her sit quietly with a kitten during your reactions, Brad. 😁 That was seriously funny guys, thank you!
Very much a favourite show of mine growing up. Definitely provided a lot of fodder for playground sayings. My favourite clip from the show was a 'Lee and Lance' sketch where Lance is trying to sing. Can be found on youtube as the 'Whos that Girl sketch'
I can't believe Brad wasn't clobbered by Lucy during this. Admirable restraint, that woman! (bit worried about what happened off--screen afterwards though 😯).
A British comedy classic, glad you enjoyed it so much. You guys should really check out some Fawlty Towers and Blackadder (Series 2, 3 and 4....series 1 was a bit too 'experimental').
Brad lucy,have you shown any of harry enfields Yorkshire man sketch,harrys south African rude chemist,harrys American tourists, benny hill wife swap.hale&pace the man who cant take things seriously, hale&pace the drugs song.any compalation of two Ronnie's parody of country &western songs.morecome&wise,Andrews sisters,singing in the rain,south pacific.
The 1950's was the same around the industrialized world sadly. Forgetting that women took off their aprons to take on roles traditionally done by men during WW2 then had to remove their coveralls for their aprons.
Please react to more harry enfield try his association football its hilarious. Its 1933 arsenal team playing a liverpool team from the 1990s. You dont have to like soccer or football to enjoy this sketch.
Harry Enfield has lots of great comedy strips, tv shows etc. worth checking out 🤘🙂 There are few more similar "old black & white educational video news flash clips" by these guys on YT too.
Harry Enfield and the fast show are great, you should watch some Unlucky Alf. Edit they're only short but the FA cup final is a good one to start. Theres also a 18 min video showing them all one after another.
You would love Enfield's "Cornish ladies man" sketches. They feature a Cornish guy sat the the pub, telling stories about how he pulled then had sex with various celebrities. Obviously bullshit, the stories are both vulgar and laced with funny (but fake) sexual slang/gibberish. In a couple of them, Enfield struggles to keep a straight face and contain his laughter!
I showed this Harry Enfield sketch to my best friend who's into the woke feminist thing & even she found it funny. She completely understood that the whole joke of the sketch was that the lady was saying the correct thing the whole time, but us men are arseholes 😂 The irony of the joke is that it's a joke on men as well. I was worried she would of looked the other way about it & I'd have to explain the logistics of the joke to her.
I think these attitudes should be brought back. I mean, if we don't, we may end up with women driving cars for heaven's sake! Don't get me wrong - women are highly valued - in the kitchen and the wash house. Again, you will spot the humour here, and not dismiss it as misogyny. I always carry on with these jokes, despite the bruises on my face from the missus.
These days it's the woke and snowflakes aliens that tell us humans to know your limits, I say aliens as I agree with someone that you can't call who are woke and snowflakes human
No. I know for a fact that this was a documentary. I remember vividly because I worked the crank-handle for the director. It wasn't pleasant, but I'm eternally grateful that he didn't introduce any trolls. And I was only 15 then, so you're quite right. It was 350 years ago in the 1930s.
I have noticed that the women who are reacting to this with their partner always pull a face of disappointment as soon as the COMEDY kicks in about women. It's just comedy. Stop reacting with the minds of today please. Learn to take a joke. There is far too much seriousness in today's times and we need to try and escape crap of today and laugh now and then.
Gold standard.. I promise to pay the bearer on demand. Now we can have limitless growth as theres no limit to how much debt they can heap on poor people and have a cashless society so they can just suck the money straight from your account and leave you with a pittance to live on. Capitalists know your limits.
I’ve seen a number of Americans react to this film, and get the general impression that Americans don’t understand satire.
They're Canadian, but agreed
Americans are often like mentally retarded and interpret everything literally.
Look at Lucy. What a dear and sweet thing she is.
This has always been one of my favourite comedy sketches. I showed it to my sons when they were in their teens. Then I had to go through a phase of them saying to me "mother know your limits" when they wanted to be smart arses.
Hillarious! Anything from Harry Enfield, a comedy Genius!

One question as a man though, wtf is the gold standard they discussed? I don't know, and really don't care, politics bores me.
Our cash used to back by hard assets (Gold) to ensure money printing and inflation would be minimal

@bradlucy Great answer Brad. And how does Lucy feel about little kittens?
Brad's laugh makes this already funny sketch all the more funny. 🤣

Exactly, the sketch is mocking extreme sexist attitudes in a way that portrays the absurdity of such attitudes.
You two have such a great sense of homour. I seen others kind of miss the satire of vid and try to explain why it's offensive 🙈. In this case we just know Brad is going to say to Lucy "women know your limits" first chance he gets 🤣
Good to watch people discovering and appreciating one of the classics. Mr Cholmondley Warner awaits..
Check out his 'Women, for Pity's Sake Don't Drive' and 'Women, Keep Your Virtue' 🤣🤣
He did a lot of these 1950s parodies - Conjugal Rights, Self Defense, When Happy Met Sally, Holiday Greetings, Women Don't Drive...
Yep, I think they were meant to be parodies of public information films from the 50's, all clever and wonderfully hilarious.
These are more 30's/40's parodies
Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse were my childhood, the fast show was just so good 😂
I'm convinced Lucy is going to knock you out one day Brad.😅. If you liked that one you must try Harry Enfield Association Football. Hilarious. 🥰
I'm very interested to hear Brad's opinion on this topic. Didn't understand any of Lucy's deranged ramblings at the end, though. Maybe you should consider having her sit quietly with a kitten during your reactions, Brad. 😁

Another one of harry enfields classics is his hilarious gay son sketch.
I'm a man and I think kittens are soft and furry and cuddly, so the woman is not wrong.
What a delightful thought you sweet, fragile, little thing. I adore you.

Unusual comment, no one said she was wrong.
@@xaj1543 That's the irony of the joke
@@KingOfSciliy
There was no irony, what are you talking about?
@@xaj1543 Someone did, I did.
Great reaction, and a very authentic video seeing as it was recorded in 480p, which I think was the resolution of digital cameras in the 1930s. 😂
If you're interested to know, the theme music to these segments is 'Calling All Workers' by Eric Coates.
I can't believe Brad wasn't clobbered by Lucy during this. Admirable restraint, that woman! (bit worried about what happened off--screen afterwards though 😯).
Great reaction Brad, loved hearing your thoughts 😆😂😁👍🇬🇧
See, by the end of the video the advice was working. Oh how I adore furry little kittens. 😂
You seemed to enjoy this quite a lot more than the other videos I've seen brad!🤣🤣🤣
No. Brad & Lucy - Do 'Rowley Birkin QC' from The Fast Show.
Brad and Lucy I agree with them, you have to be careful what you say or might get strike for being too entertaining lmao you both are awesome 👍
They did loads of these. There was one about driving and another about alcohol. Hilariois. I miss the 90's
Best reaction ever!!! Hilarious!
Ah, the good old days eh?😂
It's because of opinions like hers that we're in this financial mess
Best couple on RUclips
Love from the uk ❤
A British comedy classic, glad you enjoyed it so much. You guys should really check out some Fawlty Towers and Blackadder (Series 2, 3 and 4....series 1 was a bit too 'experimental').
I just knew from the thumbnail that Brad was pissing himself at this. 😂😂
excellent reaction! more enfield pls

My great grandmother was in the factory making bombs during the war!
Please react to more harry enfield try his association football its hilarious. Its 1933 arsenal team playing a liverpool team from the 1990s. You dont have to like soccer or football to enjoy this sketch.
Don’t ask Lucy how she feels about it, you must know that men think logically and women are dominated by their emotions.
Love you guys, you make me laugh sooo much!
THESE GREAT SKETCHES ARE A MIRROR OR ATTITUDES OF BRITISH UPPER AND MIDDLE CLASS SOCIETY BEFORE WW2, BUT HIGHLY OVERSTATED, FOR LAUGHS.
I've seen Brits and you Cana-Brit-Ians react
AND.... 2 Americans... the Yanks ended up getting to serious. That just made me laugh more
2:50 - Harry Enfield inadvertently predicting the rise of crazy purple haired college girls.
Look for "Harry Enfield conjugal rights" it's a real laff.
Love this guy's have you done harry Enfield arsenal 33 Liverpool 91 it's great, mike UK,😊

Check out his Americans on holiday , and his , other my chumley Warner and also South African chemist . Fantastic
This was a parody from ~1992 of 1940s British PSAs.
Love Lucy's bendy thumbs too🎉😊

It's the way it should be.
Brad put Lucy in her place please! 😂😂
👩🦰- 🤣🤣
Conjugal rights and keep your virtue are others in this series
😂🤣👌✌️
More Harry Enfield please. (Have you seen /done the football match? (Arsenal 1933 Vs Liverpool 1991).
👍👍👍👍👍
Challenge accepted
@@bradlucy THAT IS hilarious as no second is wasted and The Liverpool team of 1991 were European Champions,making what you will see,even funnier:)
I second that and his gay son sketch is hilarious too.
Things went downhill as soon as they got the vote 🤔😜😗👍
You must do the Conjugal Rights one.
I recommend checking out women drivers also by Harry and Paul: similar presentation
What do you mean we dont do that now like every pub or bar say know you limit.
When we could turn on the tv and see a totally harmless joke.
why is Lucy speaking when a man is present
The funniest one is the drink driving one with Paul Whitehouse at the wheel but it never seems to appear. Maybe it's been censored.
Nah, you are both awesome as you are!
Hilarious
You got it , we are all just jealous 😊
Very educational, I do say!.... I shall teach it to my little kitten stroker forthwith ;p
This is the best satire you will ever see. Enjoy it now for what it is because it will soon be prohibited in the new age.
You no your place Lucy, look after your man 👍🥰🏴🤪
Yep Brad seemed to enjoy that waaaaay too much was expecting a sharp dig in the ribs!🇨🇦✌️🇬🇧🤭
Lucy wanna kick Brad's ass lol

No Keith Allen is.

Scorchio.
i will go one further .women should not even be in politics. Emotions get manipulated and so deliver contradictions. Feminism today an example.
That video was to short it was missing the woman driving. Ray K UK 🇬🇧 YNWA.
Incorrect. That was a separate sketch that appeared in a different episode of the show
These days it's the woke and snowflakes aliens that tell us humans to know your limits, I say aliens as I agree with someone that you can't call who are woke and snowflakes human
