- The Catherine Tate Show - Aga Saga Woman
The title of the sketch is a pun on the stereotype of the pretentious middle classes having an Aga oven at home. An Aga saga is a type of popular novel, set in middle England and populated by the middle classes of the sort that typically own Aga cookers. Agas are kitchen ranges, often very large and expensive, that are seen as epitomizing the prosperous and cosy middle-class English country lifestyle. - Комедії
MY EGG CAN'T BREATHE!!! I THINK IT'S GOING TO DISCOLOUR!!
Have you tried treating it with gooseberryandcinnamonyoghurt?
Digital Deathsquid lol
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo not the gooseberryandcinnamonyoghurt.
This is my favourite quote on this video.... XD
NO! IT'S BEEN OUT OF DATE FOR 24 HOURS!
gussbr’y nd cinnam’n yogurt
Even the kids are superb actors. Totally brilliant!
Not "even", but especially the kids! That little fellow was amazing!
Well.. brits basically behave like spoiled kids so i guess there wasnt much to play or act...
@@yolomachichauchimmer1642 are you british
@@6_chantel765 no im from uganda
@@yolomachichauchimmer1642 so you ain't even from Britain how would you know what the kids would act like. I'm from Britain and I know loads of kids who aren't spoilt
Those kids are so supportive though.
Darling... tell all. 🤣
"cometh the hour, cometh the man" LOL
They are AMAZING, the way they deal with their lovingly but neurotic mother is nothing short of exceptional!
@@Salmagundiii 🤣
Was it a triumph? Was it stellar?
I'm actually jealous of their relationship with their mother.
I hate to admit it
She’ll be a bitch when they’re older
I know! As crazy as these skits are, they're such a lovely family! 😂
Oh, bless!
I wish my mum cared about me and my happiness as much as aga saga does, i want to be that close and loved by my mum and be called darling :/
I can sort of imagine the Dad being a semi-normal person who is completely oblivious to the melodramatics of his wife
“Hello Jaaaacques” 😂

I thought that was her lover.

When she says “ya...ya” on the phone it got me 😂

“Cometh the hour, cometh the man.” Hilarious.
"But it's only panini Mummy" 😂😂😂
"I know this wasn't an easy call to make." Hilarious
I met a couple like these whilst in Waitrose, the husband said to his wife, darling do you think I should get another bottle of pesto for our villa in Tuscany” I just burst out laughing.
I’ll bet they have amazing gooseberry and cinnamon yoghurts in Tuscany
Overheard in Waitrose
@@dynamo0255 LOL not Aldi or Lidl Darling
Villa in Tuscany? Like heck. They've got a static caravan in Talacre. They use their child tax credit to shop in Waitrose only to get Waitrose carrier bags that fyir the rest of the year they go to B&M with.
@@zacmumblethunder7466 Right, and the free coffee.
I hope those eggs were organic!
STOP!!! ITS THE EGGS!!!
*THEY'RE NOT ORGANIC*
"NOOOOO!..theyre not organic!"
I'm afraid.. They've been expired for 24 hours!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Congrats! I'm your 1000th like!
"It really puts things into perspective" - brilliant
My egg can't breathe!😂😂😂😂😂

It needs to temper
Whenever i mess up my porch eggs
OH MY GOD WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE
Would you like a goosb’ry and cinnamon yoghurt?
Slytherin Potato :3 JOHN MCCREA'S GLOW UP THO 😟
It’s my fault for being such a greedy gobble gannit
I slipped some straight from the pot before the desert spoons had even been passed around!
Surely you mean gusbry..
I used to have a friend whose family was literally exactly like this! They were all vegetarians and proud not to own a TV, but were somehow still incredibly posh - double surnames, the most English accent ever, massive house, and seemed to know everyone in the entire city from church events. They had the exact same habit of freaking out over small things, too. My Mum still gets invited for spa days with the friends' mother, and I think the friend's at Oxford now - probably training to be the next Theresa May!
Emma Theresa “mummy’s been very very naughty. Mummy’s been running through...........FEILDS OF WHEAT
That little boy acting skills are legendary
This is, as always, hilarious. But, the worrying thing is - there are actually people who closely resemble them - for real!
Shooshies
Which is why the sketch exists🙄
...which is precisely why it's hilarious.
champagne socialists in a nutshell lol
Used to say it's better to be nouveau riche than not riche at all, but is it? IS IT???
Take public transport....a taxi
Petyr Kowalski they’ve never seen the first episode of Sherlock
Queen Wolf. yesss
Watching this just reminded me that I've run out of extra virgin olive oil - and I'm a working class SE Londoner 🤣🤣. Fear not - I'm buying it from Lidl.
EMERGENCY teleport to the nearest Waitrose IMMEDIATELY !
Hunty Baby pmsl.
Oh no Sam Dyer is letting the side down. Not lidl dear it's so common . Working class people use that store I believe. I have nothing against the lower classes but one doesnt want to SHOP with them.
I also buy extra virgin olive oil from lidl.
@@L-mo lmfao
This was the first "First World Problems"
so funny seeing her go from lauren cooper to this
That's when you know a comedian/actor has real talent. She does unbelievably well at playing so many *very* different characters!
“Darling! Tell all!” 🤣🤣🤣
“Mummy, you’re shaking.”
"Darling! Tell all!"
Anne Harwood “cometh the hour, cometh the man...”
You do realize that this is what Americans think all British are like.
MORRISMORRISMORRISMORRIS either one or the other or northern.
Sam Morris I've met tons of Americans like this.
MORRISMORRISMORRISMORRIS we ain’t bovered
Yes but trump....shh brexit but also trump
And we think all Americans are simpletons
I swear I used to nanny for this family. :'D That egg cleaver one killed me, they would 100% have done that, and been devastated if I couldn't make it back.
Come on, quick sticks!!
Well, as an Italian I'm very impressed that she pronounce "bruschetta" correctly (brusKetta is how you pronounce it). She is truly a posh lady, indeed learned the lingo from one of her trips to... I guess Amalfi and Portofino ...? 🤣
When you regularly visit Tuscany, one does lean to pronounce .
@@marcjudge680 But not spell. Or have you not been there?
@@tamamalosi u mean trani?
@@tamamalosi oh ok.. Well trani is another very nice place in South Italy anyway xd
I love Amalfi and Portofino they're two of my favourite wines
omg there's literally nothing better than this family.
The Aga Saga family during the COVID epidemic:
Thomas: Oh mummy, I'm down to my last three bottles of hand sanitiser, and my face mask is not made of 100% organic cotton!
Mummy: That's the least of our worries darlings, the only supermarket I could get a delivery slot from is *shudders* Tesco.
Chloe: Oh, mummy, not Tesco! They don't even sell organic Brie!
Mummy: I know darling, I had to buy a...cheddar!
Chloe and Thomas: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
my olives are still tempering!
modern day downton abbey
They're not the aristocracy
And Downton is less petty
3:55 the "Darling tell all :O!" by the boy was so cute xd!!
Those kids are great actors, especially the boy
This is so true anywhere in the world. I'm from Moscow, there are lots of families like this one here too, in posh suburbs and inner-city gated communities. The children would be called Martha and Timothy (and they would speak the same impeccable RP English, even as non-natives).
Some human traits are universal.
Pribiet
Posh in Moscow))))
The kids just complete it perfectly funny as fuck.
"...and I was down to the last four bottles..." ROFL x-DDD
The talented, lovely boy @1:12 "Now I don't want you girls to panic. We'll just have to be brave and sit this one out" . So very British, brilliant xx
Thomas, did you want a *Coekha-Coelā?*
Do you want a *Coekha-Coelā?*

Welllook,I'veclosedthecoolerdoornowsoit'stoolate,ifyouwanta *Coekha-Coelā;* you'll have to get it on your own.
Utterly brilliant, and those children are fantastic. How many takes does it take them to do these sketches without laughing I wonder??
Words fail to describe how much I love this women
That one dislike came from an Olive...
I imagine the kids names are Tarquin and Araminta.
No, they're Thomas and Chloe.
Public transport in my head : mrt, lrt, metro, bus, etc
Public transport for them : Taxi
My egg can’t breath , I think is going to discolour
I work with a posh girl. She brags and tries to one up everyone. It's simply to hide the yawning chasm of inadequacy that is eating her up inside.
She isn't posh then, just pretentious trying to be posh.
By the way posh isn't a word it's an acronym. Stands for Port Out Starboard Home. The best cabins to have when sailing to India were port side to avoid too much sun. Starboard on the return.
I’ve worked in houses just like this.
The children are always called something like Tarquin & Jemima.
😂😂😂
I love British humor!!! Upstate New York here.😊
My God watching this in the middle of the coronavirus imagine this family in the middle of that lol
Literally, the waitrose mummy's are crying
These kids are great actors.
I truly feel for this family. Whether rich or poor it highlights the terrific challenges we all have to go through as human beings. This is not comedy, this is tragedy for the children to put on such a brave face is heart warming.
Omfg she had to drive to the shop god love her 😩. 😂😂
God, this reminds me of my aunt. She taught Nia classes while my uncle worked the Hospital and their house was decorated EXACTLY like that place, all kitschy posh rustic like that. She had the gall to claim they weren't rich even though their house had four levels, three lawns, a private pool and poolhouse, AND a private tennis court. And she babied her kids just like that, so they grew up spoiled rancid.
I don't know which video you watched, but this is British humour, the point of the sketch is how the parents live in a world so perfect they are infantalised by minor disturbances and the children become the adults.
Plus, you just seem to be jealous. Wherever you are in the world it is considered bad form to call yourself rich. The reason why money makes the world go round is you never feel rich, perspectives change, you are always poorer than somebody else. I mean, most of the World would think YOU are 'spoiled rancid'....
They weren't rich. That had to pay for the upkeep of four floors, three lawns, a private pool and a pool house.
Chances are most of their income went on tha. T
These replies are about as whack and out of touch as your aunt. Money can’t buy taste or heart but it can certainly waste a lot of resources on garbage things for garbage people.
Did she have a Mercedes, a sauna, and room for a pony? 😉
@@DaphneHarridgeAnother classic comedy reference!
Cometh the hour. Cometh the man. Perfection.
Hilarious. Those kids are great in these skits.
this is seriously my favorite
This is so true. I speak with posh on the phone everyday.
I heard my grand mother use the expression "come on quick sticks" all my life , this brings back memories, and she is just as posh , if not more .
True story,
Once when we were in her car (with chauffeur please) on our way back from an appointment with her doctor , she told me while looking at a lady who was walking something like 15 dogs, "What's wrong with that poor woman and her pack of dogs, is she insane ?" To which i answered "No grandma , she is probably a dog walker" , she answered, " Do you mean people pay her to walk their dogs, so she is like a baby sitter for people's pet" , "Exactly granny", "Well poor people are just plain clever,..... and 30 seconds later , ...... i guess necessity is mother of invention , though they must need the money quite badly to take care of other people's dogs, picking up excrement all day, rather than looking for a proper job, ..... and 1 minute later ,...... no wonder they remain poor".
I love her, but she is an acquired taste for someone who does not understand or know where she comes from . She went through 7 nannies until the age of 16, collected ponies like others collect stamps and used ocean liners with her mother when she was only 3 to visit the world .
Strangely enough she has always been the nicest person with the people who work for her , she treats them like family and never forgets their birthday or their kids' birthday for whom she throws a huge party every year , and when they are older, makes sure their parents's number one priority is their education , even checking their kids grades and scolding them when she believes they are not doing their best . She really treats them the way she treated me when i was a kid , and just like for me , when they are of age, she makes sure they are given access to the best universities .
But she is brutally honest . My grandma is actually the only person i know in these circles who declines invitations to royal commands, yet keeps getting invited .
Morgan Olfursson she sounds amazing
She is quite something , i had dinner with her two weeks ago and she uttered another pearl . Telling my Japanese spouse. I couldn't remember if you ate meat and if the rumors are true or false, so i had fish made for you, catfish . And laughed at her own joke . She is perfectly aware that my better half doesn't eat meat and that Japanese do not eat cats , but her sense of humour got stuck in the 40s (she was born in 1924, we call her the last Victorian). She even sometimes starts sentences with "Back when we still owned India,... or , I remember when we visited the colonies, we always came back with bags of gold and jars of jewelry) . And yet there is not one racist bone in her entire body and her personal maid's daughter recently graduated from law school at Cambridge and the last Victorian is throwing her a huge party to help her, where she invited all the major partners of the biggest law firms she knows of .
How does she "make sure they're given access to the best universities"? Doesn't having good grades and doing well at interviews etc come into that ?
@@orlando098 Having good grades and doing well at interviews is the first step . But universities can only accept a certain amount of students every year , especially the best ones (universities), and EVERYBODY wants to enroll in the best ones, because it guarantees you a proper job later . So when universities board members make their choices, they not only check the grades, they check the recommendations and the extra curricular activities and a lot of other things. They also check the social background of the students (we are talking, Cambridge , Oxford , UCL London, Imperial college , King's college here, and before that Eton, Wellington, Winchester, Harrow , Westminster ,.... i am British) and you can be sure that they will prioritize the kids of Lord and Lady Moneybags , over kids of Mr and Mrs Pennyless. So my grand mother makes sure to add her recommendations to the application of these kids , and to let the school subtly know that it would be very regrettable if the kids were not accepted (meaning , some subventions (read checks) from the school benefactors may not arrive anymore and they can forget about the extra wing which is supposed to be added to the school just like the Dean can forget about upgrading his Benz (DDAIF) S65 AMG Cabriolet to a Maybach convertible), And trust me , the schools and Unis' board members will do anything to stay in the good graces of their most important philanthropists . My grand mother just reminds them where the real money flows from and who controls the faucet .
@Brett Mitchell Probably because it is not fictional .
Tell her to take public transport!!
No tell her to take the TARDIS
I have a job where I swear I deal with people like this on a regular basis. They are real. They walk among us.
Catherine Tate, Julie Davis, Diane Morgan; three of England's best!
Julia Davis. I agree. They are hilarious.
Cometh the hour, cometh the man.
I love how she says coca cola it's hilarious!:b
"My egg can't breathe!" 😂😂😂😂😂
This is just fantastic, never laughed so much, 😆 😆
These are priceless!!
The dramatic sound effects make it even funnier
i worked for a rich familly like this, they never made any cooking and the kids were just eating garbage all year long. things like sugary cereals and coke all the time. they would always ask me to cook something because one time i made myself a little supper using their kitchen because i was about to collapse from hunger. (i bought some stuff from the store coming there)
edit: i forgot to say, i asked the parents to buy some ingredient so i could cook for their children. they flat out refused and told me never to touch their kitchen again.
I wish there were more of these!
I keep forgetting she plays Lauren cooper 😂😂😂
These people are so funny! ⭐️ ❤️ ⭐️
You'd think this is a piss take on the upper class but this is what middle class sometimes behaves like.
lol at silly sausage!
Even the kid's are excellent actors.
My favourite bit is the one with hire car haha haha splendid
I run across people like this here in America. I can always tell what class they really are from. I had to laugh when I heard this woman loudly announcing in a furniture store they were buying a rug for their library! In other words, it was probably a den with some bookshelves. : )
I love the over the top sound effects🤣
I love their poshness
Karen Martin that’s the joke
I love this
I barely understood the first couple of jokes but, I still laughed a lot.
why can i actually link this into events in my homelife growing up. ouch that self realisation HAHA.
I haven't laughed so hard in my life!!!!
Taking the piss of the posh! Lovely! Cheers!
if this weren't so like my auntie that's completely out of touch with reality due to having an excess of money, i might be chuckling...
CLASS!!! In more ways than one - lol
the only time Alice ever got out of the house..
Seriously hope she was at the pub
"Oh my god we're all going to die!"😂
'Darling! Tell ALL!'
"How amazing!!" - It was actually...
:D I found that part funny =)
So So Funny.
Thumbs up from Rep Ireland
What an unworldly sight it is! Those children are preparing food on their own!
Fantastic acting. Love Catherine Tate! But it is absolutely mad that there’s people in the world who act like this, even if they think of a Poundland they disintegrate as they’re so used to Waitrose !!!
Waitrose is just a southern version of Booths
Or so used to Fortnum’s and Mason’s!
Harrod's Food Hall too.
Nice one.
Chloe: *sneezes*
Catherine: RUN AWAY THOMAS WERE GOING TO DIE
And this is why the extinction rebellion exists.
Me when I run out of olive oil 🤣🤣 went to the local store and they only had sunflower oil . It was a grim day 🤣
I have anxiety and panic attacks and flashbacks because of my past and this this is so funny
The kids are impressively good!
I came across the video while looking at Aga style stoves to buy :) (Old wooden house in Finland, it is less pretentious over here ;)
well written
