In real life, there is a shop in Paris called 'Notting Hill', which has a sign in the window saying "Your husband called. He said you could buy anything you want" - It's this sketch for real!! :D
At least you're honest Bill. May I advise that my remedy for impulse buying is to go "shopping" without cash or credit card. If I REALLY like it I'll go back next day. But if it was just a passiNg nonsense I don't bother to return. It's saved me a fortune
It's not just posh thick ladies . I worked at a classic race car company , the customers were posh thick rich men . The boss talked to them like they were scum and they kept coming back to spend their money and get abused .
A friend of mine had one of those b&o music centres. The cassette used to rumble in the speakers, the same as an alba one I had from woolies, so we took it apart and lo it had the same deck in as the alba.
B&O has been a complete scam for at least the last 30 years. As a Dane, it saddens me that they're so globally recognised, because there are other Danish companies that actually engineer and produce really good audio equipment, but they don't get nearly the attention worldwide as B&O. All B&O does, is slap pretentious designer cases around generic Chinese electronics and sell it at outrageous prices to morons.
Always there. You've moved up in the world to where you notice them. I used to commute on bike along a whole street of them. Even a TK Maxx - went in, suits at £500 up ostensibly Italian designer silk originally £SeveralGrand - flash rubbish. Charity shops well worth a look for almost never used top range suits, coats, etc. Pop in once a month, maybe buy almost perfect fitting item twice a year. M&S best or classier, seriously high quality, and well worth a few £s for small adaptation to fit me like glove
One of the (many!) good things about this sketch is that Harry E and Mr Whitehouse are aiming up the social scale. Some other sketch shows (I'm looking at you, Little Britain!) only aimed downward from their own social stratum. They did of course do the 'Benefits' family. Monty Python tended to aim at their own social scale, chartered accountants, middle management and the like. But who can forget Ken Shabby (after 10 years, they give you a broom!)
Sadly, there are service providers at the other end of the spectrum as well like plumbers, decorators, garages that do the same thing to poor people... but Harry has this down to a T ... brilliant.. British comedy at its most satirical best
Plumbers. Yeah, I've met them. They're these guys who you arrange to meet at your house on a Monday. They turn up in December, say they can only do the exact opposite of what you've asked, quote fifteen times your budget then disappear off the face of the Earth.
Oh Ya one makes a very good point , one must always be aware when one is mocking one's betters , to have in one's mind the frightful beastliness of the lower echelons , who in their guise of ignorant wantonness , actually are in fact the real villains , but ya , this did tickle one to the point one spilt one's Pimms ...how frightfully silly of one ...well as mummy said ''That's why one simply must have good help'' .

An interesting little chap said to be of gypsy origin like his ex wife.(and his side kick employees) Drew was banned from a couple of pubs for being obnoxious. Since the advent of the TV programme he has become somewhat gentrified and is now adopting the manners of his betters....he has even got a space in that department store in London. No doubt the police have got extensive records on Pritchard....goes with the territory.....keeping in mind that the tv series is made for sale in the USA....where most Americans wouldnt recognise that Pritchard is very definitely from the wrong side of the tracks....his height (or lack of it) can be a good indicator of a predisposition toward questionable behaviour.(you could speculate he has some Chinese ancestry,so a DNA analysis would be fascinating)
true story: my wife used to work in Chelsea harbour design centre, London. She sold some VERY expensive interior stuff to Mr Enfield. only after he'd gone did her colleagues say who he was (she was still none the wiser). Maybe they saw hm coming.
Reminds me of that upcycling programme, where they slap a bit of paint on some crummy coffee table or something, & Ronnie Auction - Charlatan, pipes up, ' thats £600 - £800 of anybody' s money - ALL DAY LONG' - aargh!! 😅

I tell you, i dont know why but seems that the sellers that treat the customers very rudely are those who still, i dont know how, can sell alot, and often "make sucess". Ive seen this so often where i live ( i am from Brazil ) the people here usualy are very kind, but i think i am "blessed" because where i live, have 2 markets, and one small store which works with internet providers. The girls that attend to you, seems that dont want sell shit nothing, they ask a high price and looks to you with such a contempt that you really feel like if you was a thief and that they are scared of you. Is a pain have to deal with such kind of ppl.
Still, even people like that rank higher in my book than those who actually do not like ''organic'' -And I'm not taking the mick out of the lower classes -in nicer countries they know the value of what nature gives, I'm mostly directing it at the ''hard headed'' businessmen.
These are the people that pop up when a civilisation's about to end. You see, they're so educated, so smart they're actually too stupid to even vote for their own survival. In America, they all vote for AOC, over here it would be Diane Abbott. But now, 15 years after this was posted, they're now in charge of us with the likes of Liz Truss and Teresa May. Btw that'll be a thousand Pounds please...

It's Morwenna Banks being the ditzy Notting Hillbilly, great sketch.
She is a wonderful comedic actress.......should be a bigger star.
I wondered if all the comments saying 'Absolute' and 'Absolutely' were being ironic or not.
