I'm pretty impressed at the effort PW put in. He was in his 40s when he wrote this sketch and it was targeted at adults, yet he decided to learn what cards are valuable and what aren't in a kids' card game
Filmed in Edinburgh? You sure - looks more like over the border in Middlesbrough to me - the cooling towers in the background don't exactly seem typical of the Edinburgh skyline for a start.

This was posted twelve years ago, and it occurs to me that it really tells you how much the world has gone to the bad that I'm thinking Chris the Cockney might actually be a better parent -- because he teaches children valuable lessons -- than most ACTUAL parents today. That thought disturbs me.😕
People have been saying this for every generation since Plato: the state of parenting hasn't suddenly gone to shit, you're just getting old (and bitter).
@samwise7538 I'm guessing you're a parent, giving himself a pat on the back. Just remember, children are like farts -- you always think your own are sweet, but everybody else's stink the place out. Something to keep in mind the first time the police bring Junior home.
it disturbs me that you believe this shit you're telling yourself. what specific examples of parenting - which must also function as provable general trends for your argument to function - do you personally know that are worse examples to children than a thief?

I suppose it's not funny if something similar has happened to you. Really, I think it's quite sick humour - not like a legitimately (and naturally) funny exchange where you don't have to force a laugh to convince yourself it's funny.
something similar happened to you? A bloke said dont give 'x' here or ill nick 'em and you handed them over? I think that'd make you a victim of your own stupidity
if they(the yanks) knew the meaning behind his character then they should find it funny. not as if they didn't have pokemon cards over there. then again the comedy over there is on such a low level compared to here they probably don't even know what funny is.@@bioodilne9680
I respect the fact that they actually called rare and impressive pokemon cards for Chris to steal from the kids deck, Commitment to the bit.
I loved early Aphex Twin.
I lived in that area. That's West Street in St. Hilda's Middlesbrough
I miss the Fast Show, it was an era in British comedy that will never be bettered

I suppose it's like research for writing a play or novel - like he sees his TV comedy as serious work.

Chris should star in the next Aviva ads! Perhaps extolling the value of house insurance whilst robbing someones property. How about it Paul?
Peekachoo? Get-out!
Mewtwo! Haha

@@themaster-jp6sp fun fact if you dont already know
the middlesborough skyline inspired the intro scene for blade runner.
U sure m8? Not to be a bother but to be fair the cooling towers are not unique to Middlesbrough.

@sabrina63 The one doesn't exclude the other. I can be old and bitter and the state of parenting can also have gone to shit. And it has.
