Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- On Iain Lee's new show on BBC WM95.6 a lady is describing her reasons for parking in a Disabled Bay. Barry calls in to put his own take on it and to extol the virtues of a minty Viscount Biscuit!
Also, check out one of Barry's first calls to Iain back in the day (more to come)
• Barry from Watford cal...
"Minty biscuit" is my safe word.
Mine was hob knobs but unfortunately my dungeon mistress took it as the next instruction.....
Could be worse. A garibaldi, iced finger or a ginger nut I guess
Its a good safe word
The woman saying I understand his predicament is the highlight of this wind up
I mean...it's hard to argue against him, that biscuit did sound delicious.
She's worth her weight in cocoa powder.
Everyone intuitively gets the torment of a minty biscuit
Its a chocolate affair....
@@jigsorla9307 Excellent
"its a chocolate affair" killed me
R.I.P ⚰️
@@Me-hs4jj huh?
Yes was funny
Trust me I was in tears 😂
And they're Jolly Nice.
Splitting her spine?
That takes the biscuit.
Guy P 😂😂😂😂
I heard this repeated on the radio once and had to pull over as I was laughing so hard and had tears were rolling down my face.
This is comedy gold!
Yes oakel!
I think you'll find it's actually comedy orange...
mint comedy
Started watching this video with no relation to oakelfish and find youve commented. Made my day
Nearly split my spine laughing! Need a minty biscuit to recover!
I just discovered today and have listened over 20 times. Absolute comedy gold. The timing, the subject matter, the straight man. I can’t take it anymore. Had to pop to the little boys room to check I haven’t shat myself on the last pass by. God bless you Barry from Watford
In the old days, Barry would call into LBC to Iain. Was the best times.
Just wet & shat myself reading this comment
I stumbled across it today!!
You're absolutely spot on, it's pure unintentional gold.
I hurt myself laughing!!
And "The orange one isn't so nice" killed me 🤣🤣
It's a chocolate affair
Underrated comment
🎉🎉😂
I remember listening to this live. I was in stitches. Comedy radio gold.
A friend of mine showed me this clip a few years back & it’s so hilarious😂 in the interim years Iain lee actually started presenting a local (to me) radio show in Oxford, that I’d listen to on the way to work, didn’t even know it was the same bloke until now lol
Image giving Barry a tin of assorted biscuits and then asking him to discuss them in order of preference. 🤣🤣😂
You'd be there for at least 10 minutes I promise you!
Do not listen to this whilst drinking tea. I nearly choked to death. I had to press pause, calm down and try to stop laughing. Of course I was drinking the tea with a biscuit. A minty one. Chocolate. Covered in foil.
Was it crunchy?
Are you his neighbour 🤣🤣🤣
Glad to hear it was not an orange biscuit.
@@mrfabulous4640 The Orange ones are quite nice but not as nice as the Minty ones but my neighbour prefers the Orange ones.....
A chocolate covered minty affair
1:43 “chocolate” that just killed me
British humour is the best
This isn't humour....it really happened LOL
Mmmh what about this? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Lowe_(actor)
(I'm not brit so I might be wrong - I probably am - the clip is hilarious nonetheless)
***** I think you'll find it happened, but it is also humour. Google Barry from Watford.
twitter.com/barryfromwat
***** It's fake.
Every caller on Jeremy Vine on Radio 2
“It’s very nice, it’s a lovely one”
“Can I just finish?”🤣🤣🤣
Hahah! One of the best bits
@@thefeeps she seems quite pissed off he interrupted 😂😂😂😂, total legend.
The sound of someone who isn't getting any action 😂
I have stopped usinG the badge Following this controversy.
If it was to access a caramel Trio, a nice Taxi or perhaps a Blue Riband I could understand, but for a mint Viscount? It's political correctness gone mad.
No brand names please...
It's baked, and it's a chocolate affair.
I'm British and I've worked in retail for 5 years. This is hilarious because of how accurate it is.
Is this viscounts?
@@Redsnapper123 no brand names please
@@RazgrizDemon88 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Redsnapper123viscount was the name of the minty biscuit covered in chocolate. They also made an orange minty biscuit
@@MarcLaurens1 i know thanks
Even after many years of listening to barry from Watford he still is comedy gold. I think he and the Iain lee partnership are still as good as they was on the lbc days lol
I didn't quite catch what biscuit he meant.
I believe he was talking about the orange ones.
The Cupcake Alliance no no no, the orange ones aren't as nice. It's the minty ones that are nice... Or was it the orange ones? I didn't really catch what he was saying :)
well it’s a minty biscuit - it’s quite crispy, it’s got a mint interior and it’s got chocolate and it’s wrapped in foil it’s a minty crispy biscuit, it’s a baked chocolate biscuit, it’s a very good biscuit
I think he may have mentioned it was a minty biscuit. But he only mentioned it a couple of times so it was easy to miss.
@@SecondDegreeMedicine NONONO THE PINK ONES ARE THE GROSS ONES THE ORANGE ONES ARE DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have reclaimed VAT on my wife's mobility scooter in order for her to be able to buy Tunnocks Caramel Wafers. The VAT on chocolate biscuits is higher rate whereas if there is no chocolate you pay the lower rate. But you can actually get the whole of the VAT back on a mobility scooter if you are registered disabled WHETHER OR NOT there is any chocolate on the disability scooter. The pastor on my Church used to put Tunnocks Caramel Wafers on the table at the Manse after church while he was still alive, but he went Home some ten years ago now. I'm not sure if the VAT exemption applied in those days.
Thanks for the contribution David, now hand yourself in to the nearest police station.
What if the biscuit is just chocolate flavour? Is there a minimum cocoa solids content required in order to claim the higher rate? Cheers.
You need to be a high court judge to decide that one.
It is certainly not as black and white as it might seem...
Its more Green and Black !
Uncle Davey hello. Hello. This is about a minty biscuit.
I went out and bought a multipack of minty biscuits solely due to this phone call.
1:30 “It’s quite crunchy!”
I know people have medical problems but the biscuit is more important 😂
Neighbour's quite keen...
Barry made some powerful points there.
Well that was the most British thing ever.
Well Done Iain for letting this call go on. Funniest thing I've heard for ages.
Totally...the timing of the host (Iain) was key here.
"IT'S A CHOCOLATE AFFAIR"
Well slap my thigh and call me Judith...... I've just found out that Barry from Watford and Clinton Baptise are the same person 😲😁
This is the funniest thing ever. Easily. If this was a sketch I would say it’s unbelievable.
Tremendous.
It is a skit. It’s a call from a comedian. It’s the guy that plays Clinton Baptiste from Phoenix Nights
Barry is a character by a comedian called Alex Lowe, so it is really a kind of sketch. The other caller sounded real though. It is still very funny and really well done
ive had one before and they are jolly nice
I must try this biscuit. its sounds...minty.
what gave you that impression?
No brand names please
CapnHolic It's a biscuit, what Americans would call a cookie, although what we call 'cookie' is more specific. Like a chocolate chip cookie. Biscuits are slightly different. And you're many, many centuries behind calling it 'Britannia'.
And delicious!
CHOCOLATE!
Don't get me wrong, I've ALSO had a biscuit. Once. And that too was very nice. I agree entirely that the orange ones aren't so nice....
"Do you have a blue badge?" "Yes!" :D
Bit too minty for my liking, i rather a custard cream but really the best at the moment is the tesco own make bourbons. They are really nice with a cup of tea but please take care as they have a habit of breaking of after dipping in the tea. That is known in the trade as a disaster. As your cup of tea can be ruined and you have lost the biscuit forever. A jammy dodger rarely breaks after dipping in tea but rich teas are famous for breaking off easily, however these can be scooped out of the cup (or mug) with a clean teaspoon without much damage to the integrity of the tea. Dispose of the sodden rich tea biscuit in the bin or even pass on to the dog or even your wife.
No brand names please...
I really want to try this bisquit
It's quite crunchy
Bear in mind that this would all have been improvised
Dallas, TX here, just discovered Iain, looks like he has a new fan in the states.
This deserves billions of views
i started laughing at 'split my spine'
microscopic sounds painful 😂😂
"minty interior."
Thank god this was recorded
Thank you Barry I love you
I want to hear more about the biscuit. It seems to be very delicious and only available at certain stores. Not those orange ones, the're rubbish
This is absolutely hilarious! XD
I can't stop listening to this and laughing. lol
Ugh... I hate it when radio hosts make people move on too quickly? What COLOR is the minty biscuit? Does it smell like cheese? How many minty biscuits could you theoretically stack on top of eachother before you died? If you rubbed the minty biscuits on your balls, would you be able to run faster? LET THE MAN SPEAK. I NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE MINTY BISCUIT.
In all fairness though, Viscounts are fucking glorious.
It was a powerful point he made
Is this a new Monty Python production?
Absolutely fantastic. Made my sides hurt
This video makes me so happy! I want Barry and his wife to have their own show. Barry and his Biscuits.
An absolute brilliant wind-up. Iain Lee is a great straight man. Comedy genius.
For f**ks sake Barry, it's a crunchy minty biscuit, good lord!
This has brought me J O Y it's hillarious
you can still catch Barry from Watford sometimes on the Steve Wright show on Radio 2. always good for a laugh!
I'm sure it's Clinton Baptiste...
This is the kind of output that made me fall in love with radio as a teenager, decades ago. @lbc pioneered this kind of radio but doesn't do it anymore.
Was today years old when found out this is Clinton Baptiste
I’m getting the word …
A great joke is very much like a well-formed, chocolate-enrobed, biscuit-based, mint-centered confection. A minty biscuit, if you will.
Comment of the week! 😂😅😂🤣🤣😁😀😆😜
Crunchy. With chocolate. Chocolate.
The lady Pat is amazing she acts so well and she’s serious ‘I can understand his predicament’!
Barry is a ledge
The orange one isn't so nice as say, the minty one really...
But is it a crunchy?
I wish B.F.W told us what flavour the biscuit was for heaven's sake 😮
At least Barry has a blue permit even though its his wife's. But people blatantly park in disabled spots and no permit and don't give a rats. Cos there's no law. Plus what a funny clip 😄 best advertisement for a minty biscuit
Just gave my son some girl scout thin mints and figured it was time he heard this as he was eating them. The legacy continues.
Neighbours keen
01:22 Barry breaks for a second
Distinctly Minty Biscuit.....I actually prefer the Orange ones, but the absolute solution to this of course is to have a decent-sized cup of cornish tea and have 1 Minty biscuit and go on then, have an Orange Biscuit too....covered in chocolate and in foil.
A crumbly biscuit that's also minty
Fantastic minty biscuit saw some in Farm Foods at the weekend and I couldn't resist lol absolutely brilliant
........... CHOCOLATE!!!!! ........
I really like the sound of this minty biscuit, even the orange one sounds good.
"It is delicious"
I'm not sure I'd like the orange even though it's crunchy.
shame it's not a genuine caller... Barry is Alex Lowe
shhhhhhhhhhhh!!
i completely forgot about this for a few months but when i came back to it i realised how much i love it
I wanted to hear more about the orange biscuit.
did he mention it was a minty biscuit
What the fuck language is this? Disabled bay? Minty biscuit? This is like some weird parody of humanity.
CHOCKLIT
Dust. Anybody? No? Dust.
+Lord Emperor Donald J. the Nimble Dust is actually very low in fat😂
I reckon his wife just wants to get him out of the house. She probably hates the minty biscuits.
Last second recommendation from Barry to avoid the orange ones
I've been a Barry fan for years- I'm so glad this is going viral!
You know he’s a comedian that works with Peter kay
It's a minty biscuit 🤣🤣🤣
This makes me want to search out and find a Viscount biscuit and try it out.
I already don't remember what the video was about aside from the minty biscuits. lol
At first I thought he was taking the biscuit but he actually had quit a good point in the end
Is that Count Arthur Strong?
Barry is onto something about that minty biscuit
Gold. Nice to know there is still fresh radio gold coming out.
Its not gold its Orange but there are Minty ones with soft....
otherwise i'll split my spine hahahaha
i'm suddenly craving a minty biscuit
Give Barry his own TV show, he can be searching for the Great British Biscuit.
In life, I've learned that the orange one is NEVER as tasty as the green one.
Sounds fucking delicious
The algorithm makes this pop up from time to time. Never gets old! 😂
Pat: could end up splitting her spine
Barry: medical problems
I love Barry, he cracks me up!!
This is the best video on youtube.
A wild guess, but is he talking about a mint Viscount?
