A most splendid tutorial of a visual nature on the bases of self-defense. I am thoroughly reassured that their application against any ruffian one might encounter when one is about one's business of a winter's evening will bring an unwelcome confrontation with a chunky desperado to a favourable conclusion for all concerned.
Glad to see the various classes in the hierarchy know their places & respond appropriately, making it quite safe to proceed out of a winter`s evening, Mr Cholmondley-Warner
I say,if we all had these lessons today there would be no car thieves, shop robberies and no need for the elaborate legal defense for the ruffians! LOL
Well, one has to say that one has learned a great deal of useful information from this splendid educational short film; I shall be studying it diligently and applying the techniques in my everyday life in the most appropriate ways when accosted by scallywags, ruffians and ne´er-do-well vagabonds of all persuasions. Thanks awfully.
Well Quite---I think our colonial bretherens require a fresh injection from the Motherland. Clearly--far too much influence from those vagabonds in the Americas.
@@bar10ml44 Yes there is. Why are there always plonkers like you bemoaning "the good old days" and how "we don't get comedy like this nowadays!!!!" on every single bloody Harry Enfield video on UA-cam?
Just make sure your person is within hailing distance of the local constabulary.... oh wait a minute, this is two thousand and eighteen years anno domini …….. Good Luck!
That's what was being said when when this came out. It was also being said when Yes Minister came out, Not The Nine O'clock New, Yes Prime Minister...........the list goes on. You are just a degree in a circle, enlessly repeating.
LOL I love how this skit has opened up a deep and frosty international discourse rather than become the site for multiple postings of how funny it bloody well is!
There's something very "Dad's Armyish" about this film. Apart from the way that the characters speak, you can imagine Captain Mainwaring showing it to his platoon while training them to deal with any German paratroopers they might meet in a dark alley
Well they would certainly have been influenced by ''Public Information films', like this, with clipped posh, terrrribly terrribly English tones like these.
It's good that the potato setting was used when this video was rendered, it's the only time that 240p adds to the videos realism, lol. I'd actually forgotten how good these were.
These are great tips after watching this I now feel safe again to venture into my town for a night out.. Thanks for this very informative video... Subded
There's quite a bit of nostalgia hidden under the silliness here. Ha ha! Manners then seem stiff today, mainly because modern manners are mostly vestigial.
Harry Enfield's TV prog of the 90s. Available on DVD, but these Cholmondley-Warner (pronounced Chumley) slots were a sketch each week in a mixed sketch show, similar to The Fast Show.
And if these don’t work, try Number 6: When the ruffian bent on larceny assails you with the phrase: “‘And over your wallet!”, quickly point out to him that he has dropped an aitch. He will instinctively bend over to look for the missing consonant, affording you the opportunity to make good your escape!
Should such a situation arise when in England (or her dominions) before going for one’s “shootin’ iron”, it is customary to offer your opponent a small-arm of equivalent stopping power before walking the requisite ten paces and turning to discharge said weapons.
And it really works. I just bought a hat and an umbrella last week and went to a footballgame. As i found myself in a group of hooligans i gave them chaps a bit of rough and tumble and i only lost 10 teeth, broke 5 ribs, lost me left eye, got some ankles dislocated and they broke me nose a couple of times. Next month i will take my granddads watch to the next game and try it again, this time i will give them ol´ chaps a real clobbering.
I'm afraid old chap, your Estuary English grammar gave the game away. These defence instructions are only valid for the middle classes. An upper class gentleman would simply run the blighter through with his swordstick.
Goodmorning. I have issues scene 1=although the ruffian doffed his cap no forlock was tugged. scene 5 the miscreant recieved a fist to the orchestra stalls=!After the watershed please..
Strap me perishing vitals. Ol Boris, e's gone and bloomin well brought Britain back to a land of warm beers an the sound of leather on willow e 'as, and no mistake.
But there's a hack for that: tell them someone has told the truth on Facebook and they'll be on your doorstep in minutes. While they're there, you can then slip in that your house has been burgled and the blood pouring from your head came from the pugilistic strikes of a perishing ruffian acting with larcenous intent.
😂 that last one would definitely work. There's nothing worse than then being bashed in the bullocks., I say! lol wouldn't it hurt? Christ, you're not kidding. You just don't get comedy like this anymore. Pure gold kudos to Harry Enfield
If only he had been around to tell us what to when "ambushed by cake" in one's office, we might've had something else on the news for the past couple months :)
I like the way the policeman 'cuffs' the villain. The word seems to have gone out of use in that context. Nobody cuffs children any more (more's the pity).
"Blimey, stone me if me blasted centre of gravity ain't been disorientated."
Absolutely wonderful!
Evening guv'nor! Wizard weather we're having, in't it not half...
“Alright chummy, hand over your perishing lolly, or face a bit of rough and tumble.”
I’m going to use this in all my mugging from now on.
If I see you, I shall raise my hat to you.
You appear to be a chunky desperado, up to larcenous intentions.
Would terrify me that.
I'm afraid I can't see eye to you on this matter.

All concerned minus the ruffian.
🤔😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Cor"Blimey gov you ain't half posh .😳😂😂😂🇬🇧
As a chunky desperado I am most displeased. This informative and educational tidbit will make my larcenous behavior most difficult to uphold. Blimey.
As a professional scallywag . I object to this.
Are you also an 'up to no gooder'?
At least you know what to expect now. I don't think they've done themselves any favours.

OR---you could read this out-loud to them and bore them to sleep first, thereby allowing a nifty escape.
"Where the devils me intended victim opted to?"
Timeless and brilliant.
No "opted to" but hopped it to.
@@laurastuart3814 Not hopped it to but 'Opped it to.
The lower class larcenous types always drop their h's don't you know.
Or even "opped it too". Their grammar is also poor, what what.

Probably the most ingenious of Enfield's sketches, absolutely classic
It's a good job UA-cam is around or these clips would be just memories.
Rich 1988 yes but for how much longer? I think this is brilliant. Sadly so many now wouldn’t agree. There isn’t any comedy or satire or fun any more.
No satire or fun?! You're not looking hard enough.

Harry Enfield is a national treasure. Unique talent.
Still hilarious after all these years
I would not like to ruin your 69 likes, guvna.What ever shall I do ?
It's now '23, and yep! Still funny.
I don’t get it. This is a joke? I thought it was a serious instructional video!
I say! Jolly good! I shall employ these methods should some ruffian wish to inflict a clobbering upon my person.
Just make sure your person is within hailing distance of the local constabulary.... oh wait a minute, this is two thousand and eighteen years anno domini …….. Good Luck!
Meanwhile back in the colonies...
Blimy! Stone me if me blasted centre of gravity ain't not been disorientated.
Love the jump cuts.
Also love the recycled footage.
First time seeing this. Calling it 'hilarious' would be an understatement.
these defence methods are just the thing better than going to self-defence classes. i must try them tomorrow, at work , i m a police constable.
Alan Cogan wow calm down dude.
@Alan Cogan
I'm glad spods like your ancestors don't get to do it their way any more.
Alan Cogan Quite.

I’ve learned my Lesson and no mistake ! Back when muggers were polite and let you sit on then till the cops came , those were the days !
That's what has disappeared from lots of shows today...really good writing.

OMG, so very very very funny, just cant stop watching these BRILLIANT clips!!!!!!!!!!!! Well deserved 5 stars an no mistake ... not arf!!!!
What a blast I had reading all the youtube comments. You lot make me laugh :)
The most unbelievable part of this sketch is seeing an officer on foot patrol.
"Ooyah!" the exclamation of pain/surprise from the Beano and Dandy comics :) @1:34
LOL I love how this skit has opened up a deep and frosty international discourse rather than become the site for multiple postings of how funny it bloody well is!
Perishing comment sections 🙄
Beware the 'up-to-no-gooder'.....marvellous Mr Cholmondley-Warner and Mr Grayson we need them back..!
That's Grayson, not Mr. Grayson. Grayson is a manservant, not a gentleman.
Thank you Mr Laker for putting me straight on this matter....I doff me hat to you!

I don't know who the burly ruffian was in this but he was brilliant.
Gosh, never realized Harry Enfield had such a long tv career.
Late Eighties to present. Not so much as an award.

All these techniques still work today
That first punch gets me each time.
There's something very "Dad's Armyish" about this film. Apart from the way that the characters speak, you can imagine Captain Mainwaring showing it to his platoon while training them to deal with any German paratroopers they might meet in a dark alley
Remember, they don't like it up 'em.
Give em the old cold steel!
There is a real WW2 unarmed combat training film which refers to kicking your opponent in the balls as, "ruining his prospects".
Well they would certainly have been influenced by ''Public Information films', like this, with clipped posh, terrrribly terrribly English tones like these.
OMG! These sketches are amazing!!!! I have never seen nor heard of them before..but I love them
Blimey, I ain't never expected to see such blood n' gore n' that immortalized here on the tellyweb! 🇬🇧🤔

"With the instinctive deference of his class..."
My life has changed, thank you!
36 people need a flipping clobbering
simply sit on the ruffian..until a constable arrives..
There's quite a bit of nostalgia hidden under the silliness here. Ha ha! Manners then seem stiff today, mainly because modern manners are mostly vestigial.
a bit like the word vestigial.
“I’m going to administer a flipping clobbering”
absolute classic sketch
I have apprehended a skallywag.
Thanks for all these videos, happy memories :)
"Where the devils me intended victim offted to?" hahahaha, this stuf is my fav from this show
'opped it to.. didn't you read Beano and Dandy?
What if they come at you with a pointed stick?

Number 4 works!! A scallywag attempted to rob me but I disorientated his center of gravity and a handy copper gave him a clip around the ear....
absolute classic
Fantastic. I remember seeing these years ago. Still piss funny 😁
Keep in mind this doesn't work in the Western United States, where removal of a hat is typically used as a distraction to go for your gun.
The Eastern cities were far, far more dangerous than the West.
Chicago still is.
A flippin gun? That's dashed ungentlemanly!
Should such a situation arise when in England (or her dominions) before going for one’s “shootin’ iron”, it is customary to offer your opponent a small-arm of equivalent stopping power before walking the requisite ten paces and turning to discharge said weapons.
A typical American shabby trick …….. with the belt worn loosely around the ankles.
I need to buy a hat.
'Face a bit of rough and tumble' ! ROFL!
This is so silly! I love it.
OMG, this was too funny! I really enjoyed it! One Luv, Peace & Prosperity

Easyandy100. Prejudices??? It`s a comedy sketch taking the mickey out of the way television was way back when. Lighten up mate.
Class distinctions are what make Britain 🇬🇧 great😊❤shaun
ingenious!!! Love it!
The drop to the knees bollocks punch is an actual self defence move.
Indeed Mr. Cholmondley-Warner.

You must of done something wrong. Watch it again.

Where the devils me intended vcitim opted to......absolutely brilliant.
What a charming thought, you sweet fragile little thing..

Actually, that bit with the umbrella WOULD make sense in a real-world situation.
This is classic!
This has me in stitches lol
Me too
Great stuff pure class. Unlike todays fucking rubbish.
Not available in my country. The UK...
I'm not usually into British humor but this guy's freaking hilarious.
