Without a doubt the funniest skit Hale and Pace made. At least for me. I was in tears of laughter. Remember it back when it first came out and still hilarious today!
This surely has to be the best Hale & Pace sketch of all time. I have always remembered it from my teenage years, I was so excited when I saw it posted. I love it when they throw his ass out at the end and he wants to start punching on...classic stuff! The Brits really are the funniest people in the world.
Probably the funniest sketch ever. I reckon he actually had to be pissed filming this. Superb comedy acting. So glad it's on UA-cam, LMAO when I watched it all those years ago and did the same today. Comedy gold
I am so glad to see Hale and Pace - why have they been missed out of the 'History of Comedy.' They were cutting edge comedy in the eighties before all the rest. Lets see some repeats on the telly please - something to watch for a change.
Whenever im feeling low and stuck in my own head and trapped i watch this and it literally cures me 😮. I laugh so much i can't breathe . God bless hale and pace. Deep belly laughter is genuine medicine for us x
If one has to pick just one Gareth Hale character from the ten years they made the show it must be Quentin Traveler, he's the perfect travel programme presenter. Especially as all of the programmes begin as those pretentious shows directed to "better than average" tourists but degrade to regular drunken ramblings almost immediately. There should've been a special show for the character...
I remember watching this the first time it was shown on TV - I thought it was the funniest thing I’d ever seen. It’s still as funny today as it was then.
Drunk level 3 (hello mum) is my fav part of this sketch. I would swear hands down that he is sozzled. Superb acting if this was done without a single drop 😂
That was one of the funniest sketches ive ever seen ive watched that clip hundreds of times and makes me laugh every time the attention to detail was amazing his face cracks me up 😂😂
This is precisely why comedy greats of the past weren't racist despite what today's PC zealous generation say... here he rips the absolute piss out of his own people when they go on holiday to Spain... today you can't take the piss out of anybody, in the past they took the piss out of EVERYBODY!
Very true man , this will be banned soon along with all the other classic English comedies ..shame. I don't even see this as taking the piss to me it's just pure comedy
This never gets old, and when I need a laugh, I'll watch this.... British comedy at its best... and before extreme wokeism crept in... I love this one and the wine tasting one with Baron Philippe Le Mercier... comedy gold.

2024 and I'm still crying everytime I see this 😂
I'm sill laughing now !!
I've got tears in my eyes. Absolute gold
Me too they don't make them like that anymore pmsl
It’s not that bad, skipper.
The French wine tasting sketch is funny too.
@captainkaos1770 it's an absolute classic !!!

Agree
This one and the Billy and Johnny banana skin sketch, absolute class 😂
This is the ulultimate alcoholic sketch
Totally agree. Classic sketch. Still makes me laugh.
Gareth Hale deserves an Oscar for this performance hahhaa :D
It slayed me when he tries to play the castanets! The generous Spanish hospitality.
Quality ha ha 🤣 🤣
If Gareth Hale isn't really pissed here, that's some of the best drunk acting I've ever seen
Yeh i rekon he was necking that
Along with the Man Who Cant Take Anything Seriously this also makes it as one of the best H&P Sketches
Probably the funniest sketch ever.
I reckon he actually had to be pissed filming this. Superb comedy acting.

Comedy gold
Gareth Hale was pissed in the sketch - not acting.
He's looking so bloody drunk... Wonderful acting... Or is it...? :D
That bit where he dribbled was amazing!
The bottles kept getting empty somehow
Gareth was not acting, he must have been pissed!
I'd love to know, I think he must have had a few to get in character 🥴
I am so glad to see Hale and Pace - why have they been missed out of the 'History of Comedy.' They were cutting edge comedy in the eighties before all the rest. Lets see some repeats on the telly please - something to watch for a change.
100% agree
I have no idea, they were class top 3 of my best comedy duos
This is the best classic hale and pace god i love the generous spainsh hospitality.
Whenever im feeling low and stuck in my own head and trapped i watch this and it literally cures me 😮. I laugh so much i can't breathe . God bless hale and pace. Deep belly laughter is genuine medicine for us x
Drunk in a French wine cellar is equally hilarious, enjoy man )
this, along with the 'guide cat' sketch, were my two favourite sketches. Simply hilarious.
Look up, Sid of the Sunday league and the man the can't take anything seriously.
This will NEVER get old
This guy has funny bones. He always makes me smile. One of the best Hale and Pace sketches ever.
Hilarious! Hale & Pace were a brilliant pairing. So funny.
Sitting in the sun drinking chilled white wine - heaven
He's such a good drunk .I love this bring the boys back Saturday night prime spot
the last part when he squares up to the waiter. so funny.
I live in Spain and can completely confirm.
Shit! Sorry you're witnessing this.
LMFAO!!! THANK YOU!! i loved this sketch SO much!! When any one says "cheers" i still get the urge to say "or as they say in Spain.. 'cheers' "
The best comedy sketch ever

I just love the flow from sobriety to being totally incoherent. Makes me laugh every time.
Let's not forget the generous Spanish hospitality. This will be every brit once travel restrictions are lifted.

Great sketch here from Hale and Pace! Hilariously funny, an absolute crack up and let’s not forget.... their generous comical hospitality! 😁👍
Ah that's Benidorm in the 1980's. Brings back happy memories of when i was a kid. This is when Hale & Pace were at the peak of their powers.
Hello Mum!! Ha ha ha!! Best sketch ever made! Bring back Hale & Pace!!
MY MOST FAV CLIP OF ALL TIME.....I CRY EVERY TIME I WATCH IT. HALE AND PACE SHOULD BE BACK ON THE TV
Good old generous Spanish hospitality 🇪🇸👍😁
This had me lol. The beauty of it is, its accurate lol. We Brits are actually like this in Spain. And dont forget the generous Spainish hospitality.
He plays a great drunk! I wonder if he had a couple or three filming this?
Proper English men, from Ireland

I cannot remember how many times I've watched this and even though I know what's coming it still makes me laugh every time. So funny 😂

Hale and peace where something else 😂
Man Malaga hasn't changed much
Just perfect. Comedy at it's finest.
"Traditional crafts" did it for me.
That old man in the back scares me.
Bloody great.Why i can't find all the series on DVD is beyond me.
Starts from impersonating Jeremy Clarkson , ends with Benidorm.
On the second viewing of this I just realised they're mocking typical British tourists more than anything else.
This never gets old, and when I need a laugh, I'll watch this.... British comedy at its best... and before extreme wokeism crept in... I love this one and the wine tasting one with Baron Philippe Le Mercier... comedy gold.
Hale and pace where great double act,remember watching them as a kid,still funny,ha,ha
