I love the very end while they're dancing and singing in formation while Morten is still faffing around with his little mustard stall on the edge of the shot
There are a few farm shops near me that sell ‘locally produced items’ the thing is I’ve been around Britain quite a bit and never seen any banana plantations or orange groves but they sell them.
@acgabbers Ah, but in Devon there are entire fields full of batman figurines growing in the soil, just waiting to be picked by people wearing corduroy and tweed! =)
Take me out to the ring road Down beside the LaserQuest A little slice of Arcadia Out the back of the Toys 'R' Us Cause there the horny hands of toil Sell muddy veg and rapeseed oil Brought straight from the farm For people like us!

The people who go to these places are the same ones who queue for half an hour in the rain outside Betty's in York to pay inflated prices for the privilege of being seen.
So you think paying the cost of a single pint of beer, for a whole loaf of bread is too expensive? The problem is we have fooled into thinking food should be cheap. It is only cheap when it is crap. It becomes cheap when it is heavily subsidized by government, and it has been engineered to have a long shelf-life - making it more profitable. To do that, most of the nutrients are either removed or destroyed. That is why locally grown food goes off quicker. It's not because it is less fresh. it is because it contains more nutrients, so is more appealing to bacteria.
This is sooo funny but realised it's sad that I think would I lie to you is the last standing comedy of my generation still going at the mo and this is show is but a thort now sketch shows like this are gone forever I'm old 🥺
The only wrong sentence in the whole Sketch is when he Says "Those tomatoes look nice". We all know that Tomatoes from The Farmers Market, taste like crap. Thank you for Listening.

Oh - hello. Just 'popping' back to see if this is still my favourite sketch of all time.
Yes. Yes, it is.
I love the very end while they're dancing and singing in formation while Morten is still faffing around with his little mustard stall on the edge of the shot
And Morten Harket was actually in it 😂😂
Love the bit at 2:31 where Morten Harket appears and an instrumental of 'Take on me' plays in the background!
I sing this song evertime I go to the farmers market.
This should be the national anthem
There are a few farm shops near me that sell ‘locally produced items’ the thing is I’ve been around Britain quite a bit and never seen any banana plantations or orange groves but they sell them.
Makes me want to dress in Laura Ashley and go for an ostrich burger.
Funny from the start but seeing Morten Harket made my day.
Doing the same - popping back to check it is still my favourite - been singing the tune all morning for some reason and had to watch again!
Jars of mustard made by Morten Harket for £20 each?? i'll take the lot!!
Amazing! Great lyrics! Funny everytime i watch it xD
Utterly fantastic 🤣.
Here to support you and thanks for stopping by our live stream!!!!🍒🍒🍒
Have a like for the correctly-placed apostrophe in the banner.
@acgabbers Ah, but in Devon there are entire fields full of batman figurines growing in the soil, just waiting to be picked by people wearing corduroy and tweed! =)
Take me out to the ring road
Down beside the LaserQuest
A little slice of Arcadia
Out the back of the Toys 'R' Us
Cause there the horny hands of toil
Sell muddy veg and rapeseed oil
Brought straight from the farm
For people like us!
There's ostrich steaks, smoked venison
And eggs with shit and feathers on
There's cauliflowers with gritty bits in between
If normal markets turn your head
Then wheel your Bugaboo here instead
It's the furthest thing from EastEnders you've ever seen
The farmers' market, the farmers' market
I drive here in the Volvo and I park it (over a hundred spaces)
Market, the farmers' market
I find any old crap and sell it in a basket
Kumquats, bananas
And cheese from Southern France
Brought right here all freshly from the ground
We've got cupcakes from our cupcake field
Just harvested this morning
They're yours for a steal at six for thirty pound
(I'll take the lot)
Market, the farmers' market
I'm no more a farmer than Morton Harkett (off of A-Ha in the 80's)
But here are some fools, and here's their money
The two are so easily parted
We'll soon have enough to buy a farm
We've got flapjacks here, and sugared mice
Like a normal shop but not as nice
And this seasoned ham, just under the price of gold
Durians, walnuts, tangerines
And little Batman figurines
All dug up this morning, so they must be
(Sold to the gentleman in the mustard cords)
If you drive from junctions two to four
And wondered what the queue was for
It's the credulous masses of urban middle class
And in the car park outside Discount Beds
We don't pay any overheads
So I make a small fortune sitting on my fat arse!
(The farmers' market, the farmers' market
I drive here in the Volvo and I park it)
We're expanding to chairs this year
We get all the stuff from IKEA
And then we just give it some farmyard magic
(Market, the farmers' market
I find any old crap and sell it in a basket)
Hey, I'm sold out of stuff today
I must put more shit on display
And then go home
Market, the farmers' market
If we get twenty grand by lunch we've hit our target
Cause here are some fools
And here's our money
The two are so easily parted
We'll soon have enough to buy a farm
Brilliant.
We're, expanding to chairs this year,
we get all the stuff from Ikea,

Lolololol.

Morten Harket
This is spot on kiddos to Morton Harkett
@TheNubbbler that's the lead singer of a-ha
Love it (Y)
So true in harborne in Birmingham
Our (Cornish) farmer's markets are awesome but only the middle class can afford them. One loaf of bread is £3!!!
With 3 pounds you barely get a loaf at the supermarket in Norway!!
So you think paying the cost of a single pint of beer, for a whole loaf of bread is too expensive? The problem is we have fooled into thinking food should be cheap. It is only cheap when it is crap. It becomes cheap when it is heavily subsidized by government, and it has been engineered to have a long shelf-life - making it more profitable. To do that, most of the nutrients are either removed or destroyed. That is why locally grown food goes off quicker. It's not because it is less fresh. it is because it contains more nutrients, so is more appealing to bacteria.
Although rcremic was (possibly accidentally) correct - he then says you can get tomatoes "just like that" from the farmers market.
Morten Harket Mustard = Alex James Cheese. Prescient !-)
This is sooo funny but realised it's sad that I think would I lie to you is the last standing comedy of my generation still going at the mo and this is show is but a thort now sketch shows like this are gone forever I'm old 🥺
LOL, cupcakes from a cupcake field
@faboriginees That actually goes as well. =/
I'll take the lot
😂😂
Well, I've never heard of farmer's market,
(must be some brittish thing) but now I know to avoid them when I visit UK. :D
It's Wills mum
Ben's missus lol
Oll an gwella🤓
"Take on me" rip off. 2:30
That's intentional. "Take on me" was sung by Morten Harket, the guy in the sketch...
Just realized I replied to a 7 year old comment, woah
@@aapjeboom6297 Oh innit !! Some things are just lost on some people......This is pure awesomeness !!

Nice work.
'Bugaboo' is a brand of pushchair, popular with the middle class.
'Cords' would be short for corduroy trousers.
Just need to add 'Off of A-ha in the Eighties'
