I used to work in a posh little boutique. One of the silliest things we sold were bits of paper with trite inspirational messages tied to a seashell and hanging from a string. Expensive and one of our best selling objects. Sold several dozen every day. People are stupid.
hahahahaha. There are many scams in the world but I wouldn't call that one of them. If people are that stupid they deserve to lose their money. Well played
Harry is one of the best comics alive today but a great shame he's not on TV as much as he was. True top quality British comedy TV for British wit at its best..
It's underrated because the bloody BBC has never really liked Harry Enfield because he's not pc enough for them. So they put Harry & Paul on at 9.30 on BBC2, therefore few people saw it.
@@monkeytennis8861 A brief perusal of wiki tells us Harry And Paul got 4 series. Thats not something that happens when "people have switched off". It is something that happens when the show is successfull.
My sister's mate used to have a shop like this in Barnes SW London. He'd buy all kinds of shit and sell them at silly prices. If something didn't sell, he'd double the price and it'd be gone. True story.
I used to play cricket in Barnes and before I went there I used to make a cheeky pit stop in the high street for a coffee and pre match pastry. Earwigging for just 15 min would provide hours of entertainment!
I can well believe that story, some people will buy any old shite and pay astronomical sums for it. Just watching an episode of bargain hunt would confirm that. 😂
The writing and acting is first class and absolutley spot on! But the names.... Trustafaria, Isabora, Nicemilla, Cirocia, Bongella... are hilarious in their own right! 😆
Love Harry Enfield - Top Comedy!!!.......Relaxing in my back garden BUT this damn nosey neighbour keeps leaning over the hedge and telling me....."No No No, you don't want to be doing it that way!!! You should be doing it this way!!!"
the best THE Pioneer of this incoming trend scene - square hoops, the lot ... double the price as no one else has it ! I'm a 70s baby and began watching again with more ironic tears than before
I have got some real good shit if you’re interested in buying?! I also have a friend who’s an estate agent who has some fantastic beachside properties for sale in Doncaster?! 👍🏼😆
“Stupid you”. 😂😂😂 “Bu bye you” is so classic. I loved these sketches back in the day and the ones in the cafe with the other women “you write me nice card”. “What’s this yummy stuff” -“it’s water” 😂😂😂
These woman characters are quite like the famous people… Claudia Winkleman, Amanda Holden, Sadie Frost and Kate Moss in real life. The Primrose Hill crew….funnily enough Harry Enfield still lives there too. He’s definitely basing these sketches on them 😂
It's amazing how close to real life it is. With cars being sold for £7.5m and all gone before they've been made proves it. They probably only cost around £500k to make.
You're missing the point. If you went to a scrap deealer, found a 70's car with a chrome ash-tray, bought the ash-tray, and sold it for 2.5k as a retro integral component of a soon-to-be classic car, you'd be on the Marcus vibe.
Land rovers for example. They've been sold in the US for ages, petrol sponges, horrible cars that could kill you when crashing but the posh think they're the IT cars in the UK 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Anytime my partner wants to buy some tat from a shop I roll out the "it's all at frighteningly expensive prices" to get her out of there and realise shes being conned...Thanks Marcus!
I was on the tube doing bits from this with my partner and when the tube stopped at Knightsbridge the lady sitting opposite jumped up, looked daggers at me and stormed off the tube. Would have loved to have heard her accent!
I swear he got this character from a person I once worked for… except he sold really expensive arts materials. He used to pronounce the word really as rarely, which was amusing at the time.
I remember Harry Enfield as being briefly popular having one of those catch phrase laden shows from the late 90s. The characters were fun but didn't have enough depth for multiple seasons. But he was always very talented. This sort of thing is much better.
I remember Balham, Clapham South / Common way mid 90s into the 00s when property trebled overnight. Knew some guys that opened such shops and the fortunes they made in a year was fantastic (back then, rent was pretty reasonable still). It was a case of seeing this social type coming and taking full advantage. I worked in Balham leisure center and they were forever doing aerobics. Really nice bubbly people to know, but feckin airheads; bless 'em. Bonus if you saw them in the pub. Pretty much a 50% off evening.
I have an ex-girlfriend who lives in West London. Privately educated. I don't think she has ever had a proper job. Her parents are wealthy. She's an 'interior designer/photographer'. Maybe one day she will open one of those tiny shops with a £12,000 antique chair in the window. And yes, I did see her coming. Very frequently.😻
@@PizzaLord Why do women bother with getting a useless degree in lesbian poetry or underwater basket weaving. Or bother with some pointless job when they can marry an older man with money when they are in their prime (18-25).
The “I saw you coming” sketches are some of the best and funniest examples of satire ever written. Every one of them a gem.

Thanks to Harry Enfield i can't watch Salvage Hunter with a straight face. Thankfully.
Or Salvage Hunters The Restorers. Some of the prices they come up with...frightening!!!!
Thank you for a realistic breath of fresh air......it's all trash..
It’s that shark tooth pendant around his neck that makes me crack up.
What a good eye. Havent noticed it before. A sharks tooth for a shark
Old men used to think it made them look or feel younger and sexier. You could just imagine that with him.
Yeah it's satirical, I knew people who wore these as they legit thought it was cool.
had to go back to check - superb detAil for this character
“Stupid you”. 😂😂😂
“Bu bye you” is so classic.

So relevant to the out of touch people and politicians of today. Brilliant.
At first i thought this was a " fly on the wall docudrama", til the laughter started!! Yes, there are many like this that i know, lol!
Amazing. It's even funnier that the people who it's taking the piss out of won't get it too.
I think this is one of the best Enfield has ever done.
love the redhead in the second last sketch - she was awesome in Little Britain sketches too
0:19 Sophie Winkleman's "How are yoooou?" gives me limitness happiness
Catherine Shepher is gorgeous. And her voice, oh my god.
British comedy at its Best on a roll from the 70’s.
Nothing to do with the 70s!
He may of done comedy in the 70’s but this wasn’t that long ago….pretty sure it was in the 2000’s.
rolling on from Reggie Perrin and the Grot Shop
The "i saw you coming" sketches are so spot on these people are happy to buy shit aas long as it's expensive 😂
Used to see the genius occasionally in Cafe Pasta on Kensington high street in the early 2000's.
His observations are spot on!
It's amazing how close to real life it is. With cars being sold for £7.5m and all gone before they've been made proves it. They probably only cost around £500k to make.
There is alot of 90's/00's comedy that I didn't get as a child.
Things are funnier when you understand them.
Depends on how many you sell,that limited by how many you actually can make.
You're missing the point. If you went to a scrap deealer, found a 70's car with a chrome ash-tray, bought the ash-tray, and sold it for 2.5k as a retro integral component of a soon-to-be classic car, you'd be on the Marcus vibe.
