    What I love about this sketch is that it's done so well, I don't feel it's dated because the humour clearly is on the dad's awkwardness and not mocking the gay characters themselves. Rare to find such a subject in comedy not date terribly

      Yes, but due to political correctness such a character & sketches wouldn't be made now.

      @@andrewq159 it depends how it's done. "Due to political correctness" sounds like a daily mail comment.
      If people are offended they have a right to express that, but also not everyone is offended. Personally, I'm a gay man and find this sketch hilarious, it's written cleverly but some sketches from say the 60-70s with gay characters in make me cringe and shudder.
      Also... I reckon things which are acceptable being broadcast today may not in 20-30 years time. Society and public opinion can change as do the generations

    Harry Enfield was very clever at this style of comedy and exaggerating the situations. This one of being introduced to his 'sons friend' is especially good as it portrays what was, for many real life in the fifties and sixties.... His sketches of 1930 society are in scratchy black & white are brilliant in content and the attitude towards woman....

HE, should be regarded as one of our national treasurer's but he stopped making shows, as he thought he was getting stale and has been lost to younger generations.

    The dad really isn't homophobic. He wants to make his son and partner welcome but he can't help putting his foot in it. He has obviously never met an openly gay person before so doesn't know what to talk about. He thinks that he can't just talk about normal stuff. He is so busy thinking about what to say he ends up saying so mething stupid. As a gay guy I have never found the character offensive, just hilarious and I feel a bit sorry for him because of how lost he is in the modern world. ❤️❤️

      He definitely is homophobic. Wiping your hands after shaking hands with someone because they're gay is pretty homophobic. It's very ingrained and not overtly hateful but it's definitely suggests an irrational fear and anxiety of and around homosexuality as well believing it to be an inferior 'trait' in a man.

    That's Ewen Bremner, his been in quite a few films, think he first burst into the movie scene with Trainspotting, then moved onto the likes of Black Hawk Down and Snatch, his young here so it is understandable why you cannot put your finger on it. Pirates of the Caribbean was Mackenzie Crook, who was on the British version of The Office, and yeah similar sort of entrance and done around half a dozen more internationally known films.

    Each of the original 6 episodes are about 2-6 mins also, so maybe all of them in one video?! :D :)
