As an American, I understand about 50% what this guy is saying, 70% of what he's eating, and 0% of why this was in my youtube queue. Hey everyone commenting to my comment, it was just a joke post and I'm really tired of all the notifications. Nothing against English food or Welsh speakers, just having a laugh. Enjoy your eel jelly and hair soup etc etc
My grandfather went here when he was on leave in London during WW1, my dad went during WW2 and my he took me here as a kid when I visited the UK the first time as a child. Over the next 35 years I went during every visit but haven't managed to get there since 2013.
I went here back in 2006 and it was my first time in London. I was alone on a business trip and was wandering around on a Sunday after dropping my bags at the hotel. Stumbled onto this place and shyly ordered a haddock and chips and sat there happily eating my first fish and chips in London.
I know it must take a good deal of multitasking to say hi to people chatting with you and also film the core content. But I must say, the random chats from random passersby is a big part of what I enjoy in your videos. The fish and chips look really good.
Danny says “right then let’s join the queue” and then walks straight to front 😂 what a Legend 🤝🏻 did anyone else see the look on that blokes face already waiting patiently and then Danny bowls in and gets served before him 😢😂
You're clearly clueless how these places work hahaha@@suave-rider, there was a bunch of tables and chairs behind the guy 'patiently waiting' lmfao, a queue doesn't mean standing in a perfect straight line
No seat belt again You can be fined up to £500 if you do not wear a seat belt when you’re supposed to. when it was OK to be English now they are vanishing from politics football Streets & TV
The Jews and the Italians argue about who bought fish and chips to Britain but British always think it’s a British dish when it isn’t but I hope you enjoy it if you come to the uk and don’t let people say you have to have with mushy pea’s because it’s also amazing with a decent thick curry sauce and some like tartar sauce the one thing most will agree on is lots of salt and vinegar 😂
At 6:39 you can see the flat (20 yards away )that I used to live in 40 years ago. Back then at the start of the rise of Covent Garden as a tourist attraction (200 yards away) this was just an unremarkable chip shop mainly frequented by people local to the area, no fancy frontage or tables outside, a basic chip shop menu and take away only 😄 Food was always good, 8/10 and reasonably priced. Can't speak for how good it is today , I've not eaten there for many many years as I no longer live in the area and every time I've passed by it's swarming with tourists. Glad to see they are still thriving BUT despite their longevity I'm not sure if they are the oldest chip shop in London ?
OK correction, Rock and Sole Plaice used to be known for using Seasame Seed Oil to cook their fish and chips. Unfortunately they were sold due to the Pandemic. The new owners chose not to continue the tradition and now are a total shadow of what they previously were. They'd cheaper out massively, their quality is nothing like what it used to be.
@@brozorsi mean everything that makes sesame oil taste good not only gets ruined when you heat it to frying temperatures, it tastes awful, so what are you guys even on about would have made sense if they splashed some on after frying, like how you use vinegar are you sure you're not talking about peanut oil?
@@poziomkax5985 Canola is the worst. Stuff fried in canola is disgusting. McDonald's uses canola to make its fries. They used to use Crisco shortening and the fries were so delicious people would literally fight over the fries at the bottom of the bag. I won't even eat those nasty canola fries. Tastes like they boiled them.
I've been away from ( Leicester ) England for 16 years. I went through a rollercoaster of taste memories watching this. Just wanted to say thank you brother!❤
Actually Fish and Chips is not a British tradition food and it’s got nothing to do with Britain at all. Fish and Chips was invented in 15th century in Portugal and the first person who brought up Fish and Chips in UK was a Jewish cook. It was in 1860s. Can name any famous British dish and it’s got nothing to with Britain. Everything has been brought from overseas.
What made the saveloy exceptional in this place was the fact that they'd soak the saveloys in hot water to keep them succulent. The old owner used to point this out to people whenever he got the chance. He was a grumpy so and so but when he'd start to recognise you he'd soften a little. It was one of the staple places you went for lunch when you worked around there, usually the 3/4 days after you got paid. The rest of the month you were eating out of No.1 Cafe on Earlham street.
It's amazing to see you are getting recognised in London as it's a big place. The fish and chips with all the other bits was a good price. I would have thought they would have cost a lot more considering the area where you are at. That piece of fish is a really good size and the chips are proper!! Look 👀 at the size of them. Hope you do some more London video's soon Danny as they have been really good viewing so far....🙂👍🏻👍🏻
@@Milllarman It's in Covent Garden. In the London suburbs you're looking at average £12-14 for that, maybe as low as £10 in some spots so north of £16 in the heart of the West End is what you'd expect it to be.
What people dont get is the business rates in London are enormous. Use to do the accounts for my company we where a firm of 12 with one floor of a small office block in the West End. the rates where over £100,000 per year! that was 10 years ago. So costs will always be higher.
Its easy to make bro! Im American and was able to make some SERIOUSLY good fish n chips. I have tried them in london so i know what I’m looking for. The chips is the hardest to nail down correctly for me. I suggest just using any frozen brand fries/chips. Try to get a chip brand from Belgium! Best! And the fish is very easy to make! Just make sure your batter is SUPER cold and the beer is cold n taste good.
Great content. i also like how you don,t mind chatting to people during your reviews.Hope to see you some day and have a pic with you. i have gone to some of the places you have rated and really enjoyed trying the only remaining coal powered chip shop food.Keep up the great work. :) you got a sub from me Buddy!
The first time I ever tried fish and chips was in Mexico 😂😂 yes Mexico. It was a cold morning and there was this little place that my dad and I had never seen before. When we got there it was a father and his son we asked what they served and he said fried fish with fried potates wedges. It smelled and looked so good and the taste was unique and the batter on the fish was something I had never seen before and the fries were so crispy and delicious. We went back next week and the place was gone 😢 years later I found out how fish and chips are made and remembered that place and I get emotional.
Danny, about an hour ago I was watching another guy in London. He went into Harrods for fish and chips. It cost him £37 and he showed that the haddock was not very big, but was also quite thin. The chips were about the same as yours, but the gravy was watery, and the other sauces were pretty tasteless. He was quite disappointed with the whole meal. Maybe they charged him so much more was because he sat inside to eat! Your meal looked delicious and was, from the way you enjoyed it. Good for you, mate. Cheers.
This is the first time watching you. Liked it and subscribed. Thank you for your video. They have fish & chips not far from me but it's nothing like there where you are.
It'll be tough to make it to south London from Indiana, US.......but if I get the chance, I'll certainly try it. All looks fantastic, and the sausage make me want to hop a flight straightaway.
That did look very good , price was also ok for the size of the fish . I find the fish and chip shops in London very hit and miss .Good review again .Enjoy London mate
Think you summed it up nicely Danny. Batter looked a bit thick. The rest looked spot on. Everytime you tried something you seemed surprised it was nice.
You know, when I crossed the English Channel on the ferry to visit my daughter who lives in Belgium, I went into the restaurant on board. I had the fish and chips, and it was delicious. Nice portion and hot.
Best chips in London, I've been going there for years as I worked nearby, now I still travel there for the chips, amazing. It's called the Rock and Sole Plaice, you missed the pun.
Very good. I actually went to Rock and Sole when in London, very tasty (only for the walking tour guide, I never would have found it). Another very good spot, sadly now closed in Soho square is Hobsons
Danny the next time your in London & want Fish & chips please take yourself along to Masters fish & chips on Waterloo road near the Old Vic Theatre .The nearest you will get to proper northern fish & chips anywhere in London . Absolutely wonderful . From a person who lived on Graveleys for years. By the way you let us all down ,the mushy peas from the place you went too are tinned muck ..😂
From 1954 through 1957 my family lived in England where my Dad was stationed. I was too young to remember much. My brother and sister were 8 and 5 years older than me. They as well as my parents talk about the wonderful greasy fish and chips they used to get from street vendors. Served in a cone of rolled up newspaper and very cheap....like a Shilling.
from internet - Established around 1860 - 1871, Rock & Sole Plaice is popular with locals and tourists. Our locally sourced, sustainable, British fish has been described as the best in London and is still prepared using our 152-year-old traditional recipe. We have 2 floors of cosy seating inside plus an Al Fresco dining area perfect for those warm summer nights in the heart of Covent Garden.
Good to see more of your eating out vlogs in London ( my area ) that Fish & Chip shop looked a good one you should try the Pie & Mash shop thats quite tasty too Danny 👍
The fish looked great ,cooked very well great color. The sides looked really delicious,the texture was, and the sausage had a good sap to it. The texture of the fish is good.overall everything looks delicious.
I've been coming to the Rock & Sole Plaice for over 30 years and it just gets better and better. love this guy's review! I tell you, it's a good job I wore me stretchy pants, 'cause I'm going back for seconds. London might not have the same ring as our beloved North, but they know their way 'round a fish supper, I'll give 'em that. Right, I'm off to find a brew now to wash it all down. Ta-ra, you lot!
We need more people like you in the Police forces.You have a skill to walk into any situation and people remember you for you firm respect to other's.Sending blessings
NEW EVIDENCE has confirmed what many suspected - Mossley is home to the country's oldest fish AND chip shop. Joseph Malin opened his fried fish shop in 1860, in Bow, London - but he only sold fried fish. Oldham's Tommyfield Market claims to being the first place in England to sell fried chips - this was also
Correct I lived near Mossley. It was started by John Lees around 1860 but contested by a shop in London opened around the same time. .. I also had a chippy in the lakes for 8 years.. I had the information you gave us on my business website. The mossley chip shop is sadly a chinese take away or it was 10 years ago when i was last visited. Tommyfield Market is almost gone.. Most stalls demolished for a car park but I remember buying chips from a wooden and brick stall there when i was a kid.
Interesting to learn that tartare sauce isn't common up norf, also I like how you were eager to judge whether the gravy was up to standard as we do also enjoy gravy down south, although I guess its less ubiquitious outside of a sunday roast.
This is a great place for fish and chips. I go here often and enjoy the tasty fish and chips. But, choose your time well as it gets very busy and sometimes there is a queue. I tend to eat in and enjoy the hustle and bustle.
Danny says down London you have to have a saveloy, reminds me of when I went to Wales and asked for Cod Roe. The fella in the fish and chip shop said, What's cod roe". Maybe a London thing?
I'm northern and lived in London in '80s when no chippies had curry sauce. The best authentic Chinese chippy curry sauce is Goldfish, you can now get it in Tesco. I do remember the saveloys which were basically bright red hot dogs. The modern version seems to have removed the food dyes. Never heard of cod roe in a chippy, but jars of pickled cockles or mussels (even eggs) are a thing up North. I only ever witnessed my uncle buying them back in 1990.
@@Drew-Dastardly sadly cockles and pickled eggs and also pickled onions are on the decline in northern chippies shame i love me a pickled egg, remember when i first went to the south west and went in a chippy and it didn't have curry or gravy, that was over 30 yrs ago and still not over it.
Food prices are shockingly high now, all around the developed world. There is a fish & chips place near where I live in southern California. It is not a fancy place, or in a fancy area, but family run and quite decent. There is an old newspaper article from 2012 praising the restaurant and you can see a photo of the menu with prices in the background. When you look up to the current menu for the same items, everything has literally doubled in price!
I am a Londoner and there are a good few places still left, that sell fish from Billingsgate Fish Market , if you know where to go. Even all us rich London folks cant afford to pay £22. Most reviews that I see are detailed on sites for Tourists . Anyway the best that I have had is Yorkshire and Scotland. Ps Costs in London , Rent, business tax dont help.
@@adamkane7513 Masters superfish ,Waterloo road near the old vic theatre ..10 min walk from Waterloo station. Nearest you will get to proper northern fish & chips. By far the best in London by a country mile . I was brought up on Graveleys in Elland road, Leeds ..They are almost equal to theirs.
I'm surprised they had gravy. Most of the chippy's I've been to in London didn't do gravy. They didn't fry in beef drippings either. Did you quit drinking D&B with your fish and chips Danny?
i went there years ago and had a big peice of halibut and chips with the trimmings, it was spot on. the first chippy was called malins which opened in 1860 but it closed in the 70s
I’ve never come across curry or peas with fish and chips here in Oz. But …. It wouldn’t be fish ‘n’ chips for me without lemon and tomato sauce. Love your vids Danny ♥️♥️
If you had 2fish and shared the chips ,which is not uncommon practice ,and dispensed with the extras ,which you didn't go for in the first place ,two of you could eat well for 15 quid
Hmm so delicious - yes dipping those chunky fries in gravy! The chips kinda reminds me of the big cut fries at Arthur Treachers fish and chips restaurants here in the US!
I'll need to try this spot the next time I'm 'across the pond'. As it stands now, and having travelled all over most of the UK, my favorite fish & chips joint was in...gulp, Inverness, Scotland!
Aaaw Danny and Crew your a day early with this😮its fish and chip Friday tomorrow 😝but once again always love seeing content from you all.. such a little place there aswell nd lotsa bodies very busy. Must be popular 😁 looked good . And for you to be caring your suitcase bag around thought you'd had a knife fork and plate in there . Heheh keep it up guys . ❤xx
don't look half bad them fish and chips for London tbf, i've had London fish and chips before and they were awful compared to Scarborough or Whitby but these look top notch tbh
"the chips are so big they might as well just give ya potatoes" made me laugh when he said that 😂
😂😂😂
Steak fries would freak him out.
Was amazed with the fervor in which he gargled that sausage.
Look like steak fries, which I quite like
EXACTLY! They simply throw Potatoes in the FAT, together with a whole Fish, and a big Wiener, aka Sausage! Thats not Food, thats disgusting!

Same....yet here we are.
What is this doing in my queue?
As a whatever, this is 100% the saddest food review show on youtube. I have seen more positive energy from war refugees getting food aid.
My grandfather went here when he was on leave in London during WW1, my dad went during WW2 and my he took me here as a kid when I visited the UK the first time as a child. Over the next 35 years I went during every visit but haven't managed to get there since 2013.

Do it. Have yersel a bloody good scrannin!
No trip to the United Kingdom is complete without eating traditional British Fish and Chips! That sausage they give you looks delicious as well!
London is not the place for fish and chips by the way. Get as close to the coast as you can. Whitby, Scarborough, etc. No contest.
It also helps to wash it down with a pint of London Pride also!
Bangers are unbelievably good...I'm from Chicago and we have an import store that sells bangers!

Dogfish used to be sold in London fish shops until around the nineties when it went out of fashion. It was known as Rock Salmon so hence the shop name
Not dog fish, it was smooth hound 👍🏽

Didn’t go out of fashion bull Huss and smoothhound became protected I think 🤔
dogfish and smooth hound were both served as "rock salmon". Thanks for the clarification.@@riddimchef1

Mushy peas are a good indicator of quality. That said, some places do decent fish & chips but just cba doing the sides properly.
Thanks. I live in London so I will try this soon. I wonder how it compares with my favourite. The Fryers Delight in Theobalds Road.
From 1954 through 1957 my family lived in England where my Dad was stationed. I was too young to remember much. My brother and sister were 8 and 5 years older than me. They as well as my parents talk about the wonderful greasy fish and chips they used to get from street vendors. Served in a cone of rolled up newspaper and very cheap....like a Shilling.
My favourite chip shop in London,always take any visitors there.🎯
from internet - Established around 1860 - 1871, Rock & Sole Plaice is popular with locals and tourists. Our locally sourced, sustainable, British fish has been described as the best in London and is still prepared using our 152-year-old traditional recipe. We have 2 floors of cosy seating inside plus an Al Fresco dining area perfect for those warm summer nights in the heart of Covent Garden.
Have they changed the oil yet.
@@figgerhead , No they want to keep the recipe Genuine , they still fry in that oil for 152 years
Good to see more of your eating out vlogs in London ( my area ) that Fish & Chip shop looked a good one you should try the Pie & Mash shop thats quite tasty too Danny 👍
There's a vid of Danny and t'cameraman at M. Manze on Tower Bridge Road for pie, mash and the other stuff.
@@grahamross6397 Cheers Graham will look that one up 👍
Brilliant ... thank you very much indeed.
The fish looked great ,cooked very well great color. The sides looked really delicious,the texture was, and the sausage had a good sap to it. The texture of the fish is good.overall everything looks delicious.
Go Danny❤❤❤ in Scotland we call it a fish supper 😂🎉❤
Same here in Ireland,can’t beat a fish supper on a Friday…
To be fair, Scotland and Ireland are irrelevant
Isn’t it called Fush n’ chups then up north then? 😮
In Australia we have the saveloy battered. We call it a "Battered Sav" and if it is not Battered its a Frankfurt. Those chips are amazing.
meh......... no-one cares.
@momus231 Your rudeness is showing and I don't see the point of you commenting if you don't care
@@aussiejohn5835battered savaloys are common in most London chippies
@@jep1912 - Oh troll off dude! 😲
@@jep1912 You clearly cared enough to comment.
Just been to matlock 2 mini fish n chips n the fish is quite big..1 carton of peas n 1 gravy n can of sprite was £13...n was delicious.
I've been coming to the Rock & Sole Plaice for over 30 years and it just gets better and better. love this guy's review! I tell you, it's a good job I wore me stretchy pants, 'cause I'm going back for seconds. London might not have the same ring as our beloved North, but they know their way 'round a fish supper, I'll give 'em that. Right, I'm off to find a brew now to wash it all down. Ta-ra, you lot!
Stretchy😂
Making the camera man earn his wage, carrying your chair 😂
Danny looking after cameraman's gearbag though. Even Danny thought it would get half inched.
Yep that Fish n Chips looks pretty good.. 🐟 🍟 🐟 🍟
Curry Sauce all the way too. 👍
mushy peas tartare sauce
Never seen anyone bring their own table and chair. lol No reservations needed. 👍
Very nice video. Fish and Chips is a favorite!
Amazing video once again man! BTW we get savaloy in the midlands, so not too far from you :)
We need more people like you in the Police forces.You have a skill to walk into any situation and people remember you for you firm respect to other's.Sending blessings
He’s a good man, he’s the man every police force lacks nowadays.
NEW EVIDENCE has confirmed what many suspected - Mossley is home to the country's oldest fish AND chip shop. Joseph Malin opened his fried fish shop in 1860, in Bow, London - but he only sold fried fish. Oldham's Tommyfield Market claims to being the first place in England to sell fried chips - this was also
Maybe that was Dannys great great grandad?
Correct I lived near Mossley. It was started by John Lees around 1860 but contested by a shop in London opened around the same time. .. I also had a chippy in the lakes for 8 years.. I had the information you gave us on my business website. The mossley chip shop is sadly a chinese take away or it was 10 years ago when i was last visited. Tommyfield Market is almost gone.. Most stalls demolished for a car park but I remember buying chips from a wooden and brick stall there when i was a kid.
Don’t they have saveloys up north 🤔
Heathens 😂
@@riddimchef1No saveloys anywhere in the north. Nearest available is a butchers 100 miles south of here in the midlands
😮 I wonder why 🤔😢
Interesting to learn that tartare sauce isn't common up norf, also I like how you were eager to judge whether the gravy was up to standard as we do also enjoy gravy down south, although I guess its less ubiquitious outside of a sunday roast.
I put a few pounds on everytime I visit your Channel 😂😂😂👍👍
Mmmm lovely! 😋
It’s spenny tbf but does look alright, especially with all that sauce
06:11 carrying plates like this is an absolute skill and I always admire it when I see it.
This is a great place for fish and chips. I go here often and enjoy the tasty fish and chips. But, choose your time well as it gets very busy and sometimes there is a queue. I tend to eat in and enjoy the hustle and bustle.
Did this man really just enter a resteraunt with a folded table under his arm haha
Danny says down London you have to have a saveloy, reminds me of when I went to Wales and asked for Cod Roe. The fella in the fish and chip shop said, What's cod roe". Maybe a London thing?
I know what it is but i've never seen it in a Chippy (not that i would be looking for it)
My local chippy does it I'm in Suffolk.
I'm northern and lived in London in '80s when no chippies had curry sauce.
The best authentic Chinese chippy curry sauce is Goldfish, you can now get it in Tesco.
I do remember the saveloys which were basically bright red hot dogs. The modern version seems to have removed the food dyes.
Never heard of cod roe in a chippy, but jars of pickled cockles or mussels (even eggs) are a thing up North. I only ever witnessed my uncle buying them back in 1990.
@@Drew-Dastardly Goldfish is a lovely curry sauce, just don't get any on your clothes! 🙂
@@Drew-Dastardly sadly cockles and pickled eggs and also pickled onions are on the decline in northern chippies shame i love me a pickled egg, remember when i first went to the south west and went in a chippy and it didn't have curry or gravy, that was over 30 yrs ago and still not over it.
That saveloy thingy looks like it belongs to a well hung apache…
Love this British accent- and fish and chips.Very nice.Missing London...
Food prices are shockingly high now, all around the developed world. There is a fish & chips place near where I live in southern California. It is not a fancy place, or in a fancy area, but family run and quite decent. There is an old newspaper article from 2012 praising the restaurant and you can see a photo of the menu with prices in the background. When you look up to the current menu for the same items, everything has literally doubled in price!
Its due to rent prices in london, its hardly expensive to buy potatoes and fish.
I am a Londoner and there are a good few places still left, that sell fish from Billingsgate Fish Market , if you know where to go. Even all us rich London folks cant afford to pay £22. Most reviews that I see are detailed on sites for Tourists . Anyway the best that I have had is Yorkshire and Scotland. Ps Costs in London , Rent, business tax dont help.
Can you name a few London F&C outlets you would personally recommend?
I will be coming to London soon.
@@adamkane7513 Masters superfish ,Waterloo road near the old vic theatre ..10 min walk from Waterloo station. Nearest you will get to proper northern fish & chips. By far the best in London by a country mile . I was brought up on Graveleys in Elland road, Leeds ..They are almost equal to theirs.
Don't know what is but Danny never quite himself down south
Used to have these chips on my lunch break when I worked in Covent Garden. Were banging!
Such an awesome face! I'd like to draw it someday!
I'm surprised they had gravy. Most of the chippy's I've been to in London didn't do gravy. They didn't fry in beef drippings either. Did you quit drinking D&B with your fish and chips Danny?
i went there years ago and had a big peice of halibut and chips with the trimmings, it was spot on. the first chippy was called malins which opened in 1860 but it closed in the 70s
Any relation to Danny?
@@littlebigman6957 ??
@@mitchellbooth8435 it was a joke . Danny's last name is malin.
I was laughing so much when I saw the sausage, which has got lost on the plate😂
I love how you got a rate my takeaway van and you still eat on the side of the road 😂😂
I’ve never come across curry or peas with fish and chips here in Oz. But …. It wouldn’t be fish ‘n’ chips for me without lemon and tomato sauce. Love your vids Danny ♥️♥️
I loved my year in oz but hard find a good chipper 🇮🇪
tomato sauce in put on top of the fish and chips? is that an Australian thing?
Tha doesn't know what tha missin
We will stick t our gravy curry and peas thanks, you keep your ketchup pal 😂
@@jiggitydazzle84 - Yes, that's quite common in Australia.
If you had 2fish and shared the chips ,which is not uncommon practice ,and dispensed with the extras ,which you didn't go for in the first place ,two of you could eat well for 15 quid
Oi, Oi, Savaloy.
We go there for fish and chips whenever we visit London. Love it!
Hmm so delicious - yes dipping those chunky fries in gravy! The chips kinda reminds me of the big cut fries at Arthur Treachers fish and chips restaurants here in the US!
Who in this world, has gravy with fish.
So, did you just barge in there and skipped the queue in front that French guy in his trench coat? He looked well pissed at you 😂
I was wondering why he seemed so hostile lol I didn’t even notice he was waiting in the cue, thought he just had issues
He definitely skipped the q.. Rude
maybe but they go in before and tell them if its ok to film and the camera man probably acted as the queue for Danny whilst he walked in
Came here for this comment!!!
He were giving evils at Danny lol
They did look nice. Good job Danny lad!
Salt of the earth Yorkshireman, sub’d! 👍
Give me a shout out mate should come up sunderland and try a few takeaways
I'll need to try this spot the next time I'm 'across the pond'. As it stands now, and having travelled all over most of the UK, my favorite fish & chips joint was in...gulp, Inverness, Scotland!
I know its "That Lunnon", but those fish & sauce prices are exorbitant!
ignorant thing to say
Aaaw Danny and Crew your a day early with this😮its fish and chip Friday tomorrow 😝but once again always love seeing content from you all.. such a little place there aswell nd lotsa bodies very busy. Must be popular 😁 looked good . And for you to be caring your suitcase bag around thought you'd had a knife fork and plate in there . Heheh keep it up guys . ❤xx
All of that looked super tasty! Cheers!
They're called Steak fries in the U.S. They are usually double-fried so they are extra crispy!
Called chunky chips here in UK lol
Steak fries does sound better, But would be confusing because we call thin cut chips - fries.
don't look half bad them fish and chips for London tbf, i've had London fish and chips before and they were awful compared to Scarborough or Whitby but these look top notch tbh
i've watched 3 minutes and i already love this guy
No-one, except you, is going to travel all the way to London from up north to 'come down and try it out'. Made me laugh.
With table and chair 😂
