- Frank Spencer wants to take out a loan so he visits his bank manager. Hilarious clip from the classic BBC comedy TV series from BBC Worldwide.

That was the early 1970s. In the noughties the banker would have happily arranged for Frank to get a 200 year mortgage to buy a house, made a quick profit then been nationalised when the whole system collapsed
200 years!

Did you know that I have an egg spoon for 11 years ago?
It is not anyone that I know.
So eggs are a must
Lol😅😅😊
You have just described the global economic system and the cause of our current problems
He owned this role so well....comedy classic
Michael Crawford is a legend👌
No a wonderful singet
I always feel better about myself after watching Frank 🤣
What a way to watch it... to feel above him?
NICE !
His purpose is to make us feel better ;)
Comedy genius. It always got me the way he would turn the most confident, well educated professional into a quivering wreck needing psychiatric help.
I wouldn't say he did that. He was the quivering wreck needing psychiatric help. These confident well educated professionals most certainly would not forget him.
You know that they are both acting right?
@@gottliebdee263 Yes, and I was talking about the characters, not the actors playing them.
When you could actually laugh unlike the shite bbc put out today
Nowadays the bank manager would have had to be black!
I’m 16 and even I love this show, my grandpa used to show me it
omg
"Just remember me as a little nut ........who's trying to grow!" Prophetic words Michael, prophetic words.
It is staggering that Michael Crawford was not first nor even the second choice to play Frank Spencer. I believe first was Ronnie Barker and second Norman Wisdom were both offered the role but turned it down. A young David Jason was also considered for the role before Michael, but when he got the part he definitely made it his own. Genius.
I had no idea that was the case, thanks for the info. cheers
Norman Wisdom probably would have been a very good call. However gotta love Michael Crawford
He used to have me in stitches..😊😂
@@johnkennethwiseman5460 he made it his own...
Ronnie Barker was first choice for Reggie Perrin before Leonard Rossiter, not Frank Spencer.
Classic ❤ I used to impersonate him ! I was a 10 year old … and would have everyone in stitches 😂
The best actors, are those that make the role theirs, and theirs alone, so that no-one else could ever touch it... Now that's genius...
What an absolute icon of theatre and tv .... fabulous actor ! 👍
And music he's an excellent singer
this kind of humor is the best!!!
frank spencer is a comedy genius
What about John Cleese
rip geoffrey chater (the bank manager) passed away at 100.

Good innings
"I could ask the landlord." 😂
Michael is has this cute look on his face in this one that I love...
LOL, not off hand, but I could ask the landlord :)
His credit score is probably better than mine
Just think of me as a little nut LMAO!
You should hear him sing. Amazing 🤩
He definitely blew me out of then water with “The Phantom”
I was astounded when I found out that the great singer Michael Crawford was Frank !!!
@milo6117 That's a good one. But I like it where the bank manager says he'll have to put up some form of security like a house and asks its value. Frank then says he doesn't know but he could ask the landlord.
I remember going on a waiting list at the Building Society in the early 80s. You had to save a set amount a month and then wait to be called for 'the interview' where they decided whether or not they would lend you money. Interest rates were 15% and they really made you grovel. I worked 2 jobs to pay it off. 18 hour working days 5 days a week. Crazy times but still better than they are now.
Cool2BCeltic: The actor (yes, he's very good) is Geoffrey Chater (b.1921). According to Wikipedia he was also in the episode 'King of the Road'. He was also in an episode of Dad's Army called 'Round and Round went the Great Big Wheel'. Hope this is helpful.
He lived to be 100.
He played " Pat Holroyd " in the British sci-fi film " the day the earth caught fire " 1961.
£50,000 would be worth £515,000 in July 2023 according to the Bank of England inflation calculator. Poor old Frank was so close! 😂
Mickeal Crawford " Frank" , it is a great Actor. Thankyou, to bring me joy.
Da cat took a whoopsie on the carpet and Frank accidentally set the house of fire 🔥
Love ❤ hapless Frank ,so funny and in away innocent 😄 🤣 😆 🥰♥️
"Then go outside and grow in somebody else's bank"
"General Dwyer, how does a child shot with a 3-0-3 Lee Enfield "apply" for help"
Gandhi !
@@colindorrans9495 Lived to 100.
I see this just popped up in your recommends too
@1979LITTLEMISS He's asking Frank Spencer searching questions here about his financial situation. I also recognised him in Gandhi, asking General Dwyer searching questions about the Amritsar massacre.
Soon to be banned for laughter.
Omj.. Ahahaha Aww :')
classic frank
Happy Birthday 🎂 Geoffrey Chater. 100 years old today 😊
Poor Frank!
@rockchick80s That was a bit harsh. There are other imaginary comedy characters who are even more irksome, such as David Brent.
Who is that actor playing the bank manager? He's very good. Strange that in the early 70s it was still acceptable to smoke in the workplace.
His name was Geoffrey Chater - amazingly, he's still alive and about to turn 100. He played an MP in Blott on the Landscape during the 1980s.
@@andy73100 I also noticed him in Gandhi, playing a barrister asking searching questions at the inquiry into the Amritsar Massacre "General Dwyer, how does a child shot with a 0.303 Lee Enfield 'apply' for help?"
Still smoking in the workplace in the early 90s. I sat opposite someone who smoked Rothmans.
April 2006 this smoking law came out in the UK.
"Ooh Betty, the dog's done a whoopsie on the carpet!" ... "I can feel my trouble coming on, I think it was the beans Betty gave me for tea last night!" ... "Every day, in every way, I'm getting better!" ... "I'm a man!" ... "You what? UA-cam? Never heard of it!" ... "Internet? I had a fishing net, when I was a boy! I used to catch sticklebacks in the canal!" ... "Chat room? That was where I met Betty, in the Farmers Arms!" ... "Computers? I once gave a computer a nervous breakdown! There was tape everywhere!" ... "I asked Betty if she would do me the honour of becoming Mrs. Frank Spencer? She said no!" ... "My mother in law doesn't like me, she called me weird!"
Michael Cowford had great teeth
wish i could watch the full episodes ...he is hilarious 😂 😂
There's an episode where Betty says to Frank . My mum wanted me to marry someone else and Frank says who, Betty says no one in particular just someone else. Brilliant scripts and brilliant Actors and Acting.
I don't know how they do these episodes in front of a live audience without cracking up. Or maybe they do and that's edited out. Anyway, funny stuff!
Still funny 🙂
Ooh betty !
I know a person just like Frank
Poor Frank 😂
You!
Hahaha thhat part made me chuckle too lol.
two DR.referies lol
😭
He thought I was a failure too!
1:03 that’s bullshit
Ivehad400injectionsanditsnotthativehadmore😢
2 referees to open a bank account?
Keep ur only fools, this twice as better
When comedy was actually funny.

They knew how to make comedy in those days
Wow how Trump did it we'll all wonder
Should have shown him his 'Vesuvius'........
Early one morning!
So BBC studios owns the rights to Some Mothers do have um. This should be owned by the people who paid for it. Not a private company. Disgusting.
hear hear
Change your religion 😅

This has just popped up in a lot of people's recommends in 2022. Allowing us members of the "We know Geoffrey Chater lived to 100" Club to chime in on the comments.
No..... But I could ask the landlord 😉😅 You're only reference is a medical man who says your a failure! 🤣
He has a psychiatrist vouch for him Good God and he said he thought frank was a failure too , this is great comedy
Man killed four people. His doctor couldn't understand why! He told the detective he had a great family life and was well liked by everyone. But then he did live nextdoor to Frank Spencer! That might explain it.
Poor frank ...I know what he feels like everyone thinks he's a failure 😭,,,frank Ur not alone
I wish could do amazing old school wish we do best that it could keep going thank you crack me up watching some hurmo be they
Watching January 2022
still funny in 2022
I used to look like FS, so much so that I was known as Frank😅
Great show and scene. You can't help but empathise with "Frank' in this scene, typical Bank Manager against the ordinary man, etc. Not even a 'little capital'... or let him open an account.
Nowadays banks in the EU don't WANT you to have a savings account. Because they get 100% of their money for lending via the central bank and don't need the backing of ordinary people with money in their accounts or investments. It's a waste of office time for them. Crazy system.
i tried that once but it didnt work for me either ,but banks are like that if thay are robbed out of 5p thayre up in arms.
Funny
Prophetic and relevant these days.
Did Cecil Parkinson invest in Premium Bonds?
Jan 2022, ironically, this is what meeting with a bank manager for a mortgage has returned to.
And here comes a psychoanalyst with some mothers do ave em ~ 1:42 🤣👍
when did he mention the baby wasn't born yet?
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
No body like him .to play it he was good
😢😢😢😢
I wet my trousers watching this.
Go outside and grow in someone else’s bank!
A reference off psychiatrist 🤣
Do I need 2 references to open a bank account?
Jeeeeez that long ago, but still like him
I have a poem called rusty oak tree
Uploads without Season Year and episode what intelligence from the BBC.
Series 2 Ep. 5 - Father's Clinic
I never heard before of needing referees to open a bank account.
Heh. This was the 1970s. The only way you could get a bank loan was to prove beyond all doubt that you didn't need one!
@@peterowen9183 same as now if you bank with hsbc. I have good credit and they will not give me a bank loan.
In the 70s women and especially the working class, could not open a bank account with a signature from their father or male head of household. In addition if married, only the male was on signed documents to buy property or take out loans. If you look back, the seventies was a turning point for a lot of women.
My Mum wasn’t allowed to open a bank account without the approval of my father who had left her high and dry from one day to another. She found emergency work as a house cleaner and couldn’t bank her earnings. Hey salvation was the Post Office little savings book where every transaction was manually recorded. It was in France. Any other countries had that system?
In this scene, the referees were required for obtaining a loan, not just to open a bank account.
I have just subscribed
Frank is so babygirl :(
Cecil Parkinson?
Frank would have been cancelled today... Genius actor, amazing comedian and wonderful singer... So underrated but clearly loved, and will always be remembered as a true legend... By me anyway... ❤️
Crawford has won umpteen awards, and been a household name in the UK for 50 years. To suggest he's underrated is ridiculous.
@@nkt1 🙄🙄🙄
Franks still funny and Tory bankers haven’t changed a bit
my thoughts exactly!!
What are we going to do about it?
Ah , SPENCER !
Hennimore!!
Fantastic
What are premium bonds? I suppose something like lotto, a form of gambling.
It's better than lotto. It's a government-run scheme whereby you 'buy' an amount of premium bonds by investing the money with them. Every month there's a 'draw' (as if it were a raffle) and you might win a prize, anything from £10 to several thousand pounds. So it is a form of gambling, except the beauty of it is, you never lose your money. Everything you invest in premium bonds stays there, and you can take it back out whenever you want. And in the meantime you might win a prize!
Top prize is now a million..minimum £25
