Better than any of the Netflix shows, and that's not me insulting netflix shows, there are some great series on there. But it's but than any of the Netflix shows.
The storyline is gripping, combining elements of realism and the general tedium and exhaustion of life. The Handforth Parish Council is some of the best television of the decade, in a world that is dragged down by illness and political turmoil. The characters partake in an intense battle of authority, removing people from meeting and badmouthing them live. You find yourself in tears over every insult exchanged, every snide comment made, everything that the characters would otherwise wish be not seen by millions.

The writer was very good at foreshadowing future events in this installment, the calm before the storm, the origin story of why the three booted in the original were at edge with anti-hero Jackie Weaver, who was also depicted as carefully planting the seeds of her future influence here, where she definitely had the authority whether they liked it or not.

David Pincombe got some welcome character development here too compared to his lackluster appearance in the original, and I was pleased to see the return of Sue, Cyn, John, Alan and Ian. Disappointed Peter couldn't make a reappearance in this installment though, leads to a plot hole regarding his "quite rightly" comment in the original regarding the Chairman being kicked in this installment.

You can see the atmosphere of the call change, as soon as the standing orders are mentioned for the first time. It seems like there’s a bit of history there.
Usually I'm a bit dubious when a prequel comes out. But this one sets up the coming conflicts greatly. As well as doing a good job at expanding the characters motives and arcs.

This dialogue will seriously never get old. I'm going to come back to this so many times. "Yes please" and "We're trying to have a Teams meeting, you fool" lmfao
Someone needs to slap that old geezer. If nobody shuts him down then he's just going to keep rambling on about it being 6:59 instead of 7:00 or wasting meeting time
The "Handforth PC Clerk" really is a piece of work. He's clearly more interested in bureaucracy rather than getting on with the issues that the councillors wanted to discuss!
He's more interested in being seen to be leading the meeting than resolving any problems. Like any organisation, more is achieved when the petty, narcissistic element is excluded.
He really is! he makes himself seem like a such torch-bearer for the rule of law, then he goes and appoints himself the Clerk even though he isn't, it's a classic ruse, he's so cunning!
Aled seems to have a hard time grasping the concept that yes, Jackie Weaver can in fact kick people, whether its moral or illegal she can absolutely do it and has done it before.

Jackie is the one having a hard time grasping the concept that she doesn't have the authority even if she was the hosting the meeting on zoom. It's like a PA deciding to go against the CEO when given directions and orders.
@@arai6147 I don’t think you understand. You’re arguing over semantics. Exactly like a student asking a teacher “can I use the restroom” and the teacher replying “I don’t know, CAN you?” Jackie can kick people =/= Jackie is allowed to kick people
@@RochRich. bro what is u on about? You obviously understand the difference between 'can do it=/=is allowed to do it'. Why then, do u not get the legal issue here that Jackie is not authorised to kick anybody unless granted permission by the chair/board. Yes she can do it but she can now be sued, fired, banned or kicked off whatever it is they are working on if it is in whatever written clause. If she is ok with the consequences, sure do as u like. Just don't say she was in the right when she is on something where she is simply an assistant. U understand what it's about yet u willfully ignore it for some reason brother In legal matters, semantics matter, contrary to what u think. U don't just kick off and piss off the chairman for no reasons other than getting butthurt over him being 'rude'. this isn't kindergarten. If Jackie thinks she can be a better chairman then go on, who gives a fk. I bet she'd like being kicked off meetings by her underlings just coz they hosted the zoom on their pc and felt like it
@Pep Jackie had the backing of Sue, Cyn, John and many others. Brian and both Aleds were disrupting the meeting and indeed the normal running of the council, as they had not had a meeting for 6 months.
The jump back in time was unexpected, but welcome. Seems like the writers saw feedback and realized that they need to flesh out the character relationships.
@@anthonyvallejo6421 Not really, also he was not the clerk is the point. She didn't 'shut him down', and both wanted to silence each other, the point is about who is in the right. You're really gooping and missing the entire point of what is going on here

David Pincombe has the exact same lines in both episodes "ohh dear me"
Poor guy is just a prop for the scriptwriters to hang a catchphrase on
I'm glad that its finally confirmed that Roger Small is not someone jackie weaver should have been aware of previously.
Poor Roger
Is it 7? Is it two minutes to? Is it two minutes past? Will the mysteries never cease!?
I don't know how they expect to get anything done when they can't even agree to what time it is.
You can see the atmosphere of the call change, as soon as the standing orders are mentioned for the first time. It seems like there’s a bit of history there.
Exactly there is a slightly jokey atmosphere but the moment its mentioned Jackie weaver's facial expression changes immediately
Usually I'm a bit dubious when a prequel comes out. But this one sets up the coming conflicts greatly. As well as doing a good job at expanding the characters motives and arcs.
I like how Aled's Ipad is quietly plotting to overthrow Julie in the next episode. Good foreshadowing.
Ian Ball is an underrated legend. He always just wants to just crack on with community affairs
Netflix adaptation starring
Meryl Streep - Jackie Weaver
Reece Shearsmith - Aled Brewerton
Michael Gambon - Brian Tolver "Handforth PC Clerk"
John Malkovich - Brian Burkhill
Judi Dench - Cyn
Stephanie Cole - Sue Moore
Bradley Walsh - John Smith
David Bradley - Alan's iPad
Jim Broadbent - Roger Small
A Cuckoo - iPad (3) Mary
Keith Allen - Peter 'Guitar Man' Moore
Michael Palin - other man on Aled's iPad
Tom Courtenay - Ian Ball
David Suchet - David 'dear me' Pincombe
Reece Shearsmith as Aled Brewerton is actually perfect, lol.
Hahaha yep agreed, the casting of Reece Shearsmith is inspired 😂
Holy shitballs Reece Shearsmith as Angry Aled is genius casting
Sue could be played by Judy Dench
Aled reminded me of Reece Shearsmith as soon as I watched this...seems like a character he’d play in inside number 9
Usually when I learn of a prequel to a movie, I’m filled with dread; this turned out to be better than expected.
No Jar Jar, so it's already better than the Star Wars ones
Aleds ipad is one angry man isn't he
I do worry what would happen for these meetings if he were there in person 😬
ipad mini
@@Uncle_Spooky iPod mini with dreams of becoming an iPad.
He is just trying to have a teams meeting, you fool!
Mrs Weaver... PLEASE!
"I know, You're lookin good advyahad botox?" Leave it out Cyn, ya minx
This sums up Northern England humour for me:
2:24 "If you get up in the morning and you're still breathing, you're OK."
"Hahahaha!"
If Game of Thrones had been written/directed by the BBC.
I'd pay to see that.
BBC make some great shows that get bought often actually. This is more like Game of Thrones made by Channel 4 ;)
In the opening scenes we really get to work out the alliances just like GOT 😆
@@naibakie8519 if you're British you would be asked to pay even if you didn't want to see it, so if they ever make it I'm sure there would be some old British couple that would happily let you watch their black and white TV while they did something more interesting like picking the toe jam from each others feet while drinking tea and eating crumpets.
@@Phoenixash-delfuego Do you understand the concept of tax and social goods?
All shit breaks loose.
David Pincombe: "DEAR ME!"
Aled’s dad is my favourite character. Loose cannon, no regard for the rules.
Fucking legend.
Seeing the Aled's show up after watching the first one is like seeing Chancellor Palpatine in the prequels for the first time
Even Brian Tolver's eyebrows have had enough and are trying to escape him.
Rumour has it Barry's first words were "Wheres the chairman?"
His parents thought it cute at first but it started wearing thin as the years went by
This dialogue will seriously never get old. I'm going to come back to this so many times. "Yes please" and "We're trying to have a Teams meeting, you fool" lmfao
I am still coming back!
Aled's ipad doesn't give a shit about the banter in the beginning
absolute chad
“It is Jackie weaver, hello there!”
“Keep... quiet.”
What on EARTH IS GOING ON
6:15 i love how jackie weaver spoke about etiquette and manners, and then she doesnt even wait her turn to speak when the chairman is speaking
Someone needs to slap that old geezer. If nobody shuts him down then he's just going to keep rambling on about it being 6:59 instead of 7:00 or wasting meeting time
Jackie Weaver, better known as “Britney Spears.” lol
The "Handforth PC Clerk" really is a piece of work. He's clearly more interested in bureaucracy rather than getting on with the issues that the councillors wanted to discuss!
He's more interested in being seen to be leading the meeting than resolving any problems. Like any organisation, more is achieved when the petty, narcissistic element is excluded.
He’s an elected official from what I understand so he’s more right than the clerk
He really is! he makes himself seem like a such torch-bearer for the rule of law, then he goes and appoints himself the Clerk even though he isn't, it's a classic ruse, he's so cunning!
@Lucy H totally agree
The man is a complete disgrace
The waiting room is parish council code for the naughty step.
'I can put faces to all these people now' 5:27 - there was something strangely sinister about that lol
Genuinely concerned Aled might have some sinister motives 😂
That bit was amazing 😂😂😂
He knew what was to come
12:29 John showing the whole zoom meeting his crotch instead of muting the call made me laugh
Aled seems to have a hard time grasping the concept that yes, Jackie Weaver can in fact kick people, whether its moral or illegal she can absolutely do it and has done it before.
If it is illegal, she doesn't have authority. You don't know what you are talking about
@@arai6147 I never said she has the authority, she doesn’t, but somehow she has the power to kick people, whether she is allowed to or not, she can do it.
@@fynnla.e u ever worked in some group project ever? What happens when one guy who hasn't done nothing suddenly decides he is gonna forget the papers at his home that everybody else worked on?
Yes u didn't say it gives her authority, but it was implied. U don't have to spell out everything. Jackie is the one having a hard time grasping the concept that she doesn't have the authority even if she was the hosting the meeting on zoom. It's like a PA deciding to go against the CEO when given directions and orders.
@@arai6147
I don’t think you understand. You’re arguing over semantics. Exactly like a student asking a teacher “can I use the restroom” and the teacher replying “I don’t know, CAN you?”
Jackie can kick people =/= Jackie is allowed to kick people
@@RochRich. bro what is u on about?
You obviously understand the difference between 'can do it=/=is allowed to do it'.
Why then, do u not get the legal issue here that Jackie is not authorised to kick anybody unless granted permission by the chair/board. Yes she can do it but she can now be sued, fired, banned or kicked off whatever it is they are working on if it is in whatever written clause. If she is ok with the consequences, sure do as u like. Just don't say she was in the right when she is on something where she is simply an assistant.
U understand what it's about yet u willfully ignore it for some reason brother
In legal matters, semantics matter, contrary to what u think. U don't just kick off and piss off the chairman for no reasons other than getting butthurt over him being 'rude'. this isn't kindergarten. If Jackie thinks she can be a better chairman then go on, who gives a fk. I bet she'd like being kicked off meetings by her underlings just coz they hosted the zoom on their pc and felt like it
sue is such a dark horse I love it
6:31 "I've received no such requisition... and consequently, this parish IS at war with Jackie Weaver...
It’s everyone bantering and then Aled and his dad just looking like >:( for me 😭
The Aled household is full of anger
@Pep Jackie had the backing of Sue, Cyn, John and many others. Brian and both Aleds were disrupting the meeting and indeed the normal running of the council, as they had not had a meeting for 6 months.
Hahaha I don’t know why your comment cracked me up so much! Hahahaha
They come across as a pair of miserable bastards
@@alexelliott5662 Maggies in the mud and there’s maggots in her eyes
I love the way she kicks him out in the middle of his threat. 'I'm going to subpoena that lot-' gone
Imagine going to the ‘high court’ to stop a war memorial... we need this villain origin story
David Pincombe never disappoints with his “oh dear me”
The jump back in time was unexpected, but welcome. Seems like the writers saw feedback and realized that they need to flesh out the character relationships.
"May I interject?"
"You may not"
"Well Im going to anyway"
Queen shit
@@rorz999 love sue
She says it with such confidence aswell
'queen'?
@@mareksicinski3726 yes, because she shut down the clerk who was trying to silence her
@@anthonyvallejo6421 Not really, also he was not the clerk is the point.
She didn't 'shut him down', and both wanted to silence each other, the point is about who is in the right.
You're really gooping and missing the entire point of what is going on here
They did a really great job with the prequel, establishing Sue and Jacke's relationship strongly, and setting up the partnership between Handforth PC Clerk and Aled's iPad.
I love the pettiness can't even agree on the time.
Sounds a lot like your sort of alternative facts to me, judging by your name
@@beardieblighter9905 you have just been brainwashed... you believe the establishment lies and watch the entire establishment unite against Trump. You are a fool.
@@MrOzzy281 Supporting Trump when you're anti-establishment is like boycotting Coca-Cola for its unethical market practices by buying Pepsi Co. products.
@@JUNGLEsausage yeah Trump is totally establishment isn't he, not like the entire Media, all corporations, banks, both political parties, every comedy show, Hollywood and every single aspect of the establishment is against him is it?
@@MrOzzy281 So the GOP and the right-wing media, both of which came with resounding support right up until the election, are not part of "the establishment"? I hope you can broaden your horizon enough so that you would realize that there is more to American politics than the Democratic-Republican Party.

7:55 No mortal being can ever stop Sue.
12:27 - something is going on with john - the shocked expression leading into the crotch shot.
I can’t 😂
To be clear, this meeting was the Planning and Environment Committee which directly preceded the full council meeting (the original meeting to go viral). Both on 10 Dec 2020.
Good work, Superfan Tim!
oh wow, that context really gives the viral video new light! Those three must have been stewing and stewing while this meeting happened.
@@ArtemisScribe I don't know if they met separately during the planning meeting, but they clearly planned to meet after being kicked out of the full council meeting, hence Cllr Brewerton shouting at his Dad to leave the Zoom meeting - "We're trying to have a Teams meeting, you fool!"
Thank you Tim, I shall sleep better tonight knowing that!
@@vibraphonics that makes so much more sense now
I like how they immediatly treat Jackie Weaver like she's a Dinosaur level threat
"KEEP QUIET.. DON'T MOVE"
All of this could've simply been avoided by reading and understanding the standing order
"Yoouuu SHALLLL NOT PASSSS!!!!!
Jackie Weaver : *hits mute*
Boss move
Bloke on Aled's IPad is acting like a tinpot dictator!
That's Aled for you
Typical Aled
Can’t cope with Mary’s cuckoo clock 😂
She use to have a camel clock but it gave her the hump, then she got a kangaroo clock but the time kept jumping, then she got a clock with cannibalistic numbers on it which was a disaster because 7 8 9, and then she got a marvel caged superheroes clock (where the superheroes are depicted as being captured) but the time on it was usually wrong because the hands kept on going on 2 3 4.
0:55 “I was just making sure you weren’t someone important.”
"this meeting has been called as an extraordinary meeting"
you got that right
