Cafe Polski -- subtitles for the English-speaking

A seemingly normal man (Enfield) orders a cappuccino while the women at the counter (Morwenna Banks and Laura Solon) talk to each other in "Polish", usually mocking him or fighting each other. The man eventually develops a love for one of the servers (Solon) and often ends up day dreaming or appearing slightly dazed when talking to her.
Harry & Paul (originally titled Ruddy Hell! It's Harry & Paul) is a British sketch comedy show starring Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse. It was first broadcast on BBC One on 13 April 2007
Subtitles for the English-speaking - English is not my native language, so please be understanding. :)

I'm from Poland and it's not so realistic to me, because she clearly doesn't have polish accent :) When she speaks in english it sounds more like a russian accent, when she speaks in polish it's not polish accent.

Hi there. I'm Polish. Been living in the UK for about 16 years now. I absolutely love The Flying Circus of Monty Python and their sense of humour which I guess is the very quintessence of the English humour. Very often return to those sketches of theirs, time-permitting... They were without a doubt the best comedians in the whole history of the world. The Greatest. When I was younger, we used to watch Benny Hill on the Polish TV as well. Loved it. At that time, as a child, I couldn't understand English, of course, but such things (and songs) did prompt me to learn it on my own, even without a teacher---a book was all I needed (which incidentally means that if you really want something, you're going to get it). Now that I do I enjoy THIS type of humour so much more. And please remember, Polish is difficult . Very difficult. In fact, one of the 3 most difficult languages to learn in the whole wide world. So, if you think you're a titan and can achieve the Impossible, you can challenge yourself and try to learn it :) But yes, I actually know 2 native English people that do speak very good Polish. They have studied at Polish universities and got their degrees, one of them in history and the other one in maths.

[@richardlitwin4046]

Are they Lithuanian, Polish and Hungarian? I speak Hungarian and Polish from an early age, fluently, and we had a Lithuanian help when I was little, living in Wrocław, and I picked up the tongue from her, although I don't yet speak it; I have the Chomskyan template. Best wishes.

Everything that follows from 8:30 is simply psychology gold. Beautifully observed. The older man would die for a date with the blond girl. He finally gets his wish but the realistic prospect of getting it on with an even more attractive female spoils it for him. In an instant the object of his desire turns into an obstacle to winning over the more desirable girl. So true.

[@IhaytFukkingsocialmedia]

REALLY though? I mean cmon....how realistic is this? this is a balding old dude irl no one wants to date at that age, and yourself? "so true"- and why??? It's like he's being given gifts left and right and not sure why.

[@omnivorous65]

@@IhaytFukkingsocialmedia You are not getting the point I was making. Accept the premise that the geezer gets his date and the younger, more attractive sister is then flirting with him no matter how unlikely that is. What matters is the prospect of getting the more attractive younger sister turns the previous object of desire into an obstacle, which then shapes his feelings towards her. And that is a very accurate observation how our feelings about what we value are shaped by context.

He only does things that are English, you see. He has fish and chips every Friday, roast dinner on Sunday, waves English flag to show just how English he is. In reality though, he's just an uneducated, overly proud, probably a little overweight with a high sense of entitlement little man who thinks that in Spain everyone should speak English because he went there on holiday.

He nailed not only those Polki but especially the typically gulable bloke. As long as it only cost him the Duze Cappucino's, flowers and a cinema ticket I guess it's still quite funny. Behind all the humour there's as always deeper more scinister side to the sketch.

Yes, the perby bloke is actually quite "scinister"

There is a café in my town exactly like this. Their full English breakfast is amazing.

This is real. I remember a pretty Polish woman in my local cafe, I used to pop in every other day!

I went to a polish shop today and let me tell you it is exactly like this! so funny
