Harry Enfield-Gay Son |American Reaction

[@coot1925]

Reminds me of my dad the first time I took my Asian girlfriend to meet my parents. He kept asking her questions about India even though she was born here in the UK & never been to India.

[@TysheenOrane]

Oh nooo. 😅

[@chrisshelley3027]

WoW so cringe worthy and yet too expected of the older generation, you must have wanted to hide away 😂

[@coot1925]

It's funny that generation after generation do the same thing. I'm sure it's the parents job to bring out the old photos of you when you were wearing shorts or a bygone embarrassing fashion. I used to have a massive quiff when I was a kid. Now I use a drill with a polishing pad. 😁

[@simonpage6549]

Maybe your dad thought that your gf would have visited the place where her parents were likely born and bought up in, and was interested etc? That would be the most logical explanation - nothing to do with being racist etc. Of course , that's the conclusion many people would happily jump to nowadays, isn't it 🙄

Harry Enfield, fantastic 90's UK comedy, Guys HILARIOUS!

[@TysheenOrane]

He's amazing writer and actor.

[@MrDaiseymay]

AAAAAGH THE 90'S, WHEN WE HAD FREE SPEECH

[@junior1138]

Harry Enfield was particularly popular in the first half of the nineties which is around when this dates from. (As an aside, Dominic is portrayed bey Ewan Bremner who went on to star in Trainspotting) He initially appeared on a Friday night chat show with sketches from a character callers Stavros, a Greek immigrant who ran a takeaway shop in the Kensington region of London and Loadsamoney, a wealthy man who had adopted a chance demeanour who constantly brags about his wealth and demeans the poor. Enfield was well known for greeting abrasive characters and it’s important to note that his comedy was often quite vicious. He has a long history of upsetting the establishment and is well known for his sustain of those who are careless when they wield authority. He is also scornful of the wealthy. Seeing this one sketch is quite one dimensional for you. It doesn’t let you see his intelligence and his sharp commentary. It’s also worth noting that a lot of the context will be lost as much of his work linked to current affairs.

[@safeashouses211]

This sketch first aired on TV in 1997, but I think it was included on a specially released compilation video in late '96. The show is called Harry Enfield and Chums.

[@janesmith9024]

I love this one of Harry Enfield. The lines are so good, so clever, and it is so typical of a certain old fashioned parent who keeps saying the wrong thing.

[@LAGoodz]

My Mum bless her, stills calls my gay mates, “Special Friends” 😂. I love it, so do they. They even call themselves my special friend in front of her.😂

[@jonbolton3376]

This is part of a comedy sketch show from about early to mid 90's which i still love. There is another hilarious scene with these characters in another episode where they go to the pub.

[@g0fvt]

That scene is later in this episode

[@michaelnash1113]

Harry Enfield is a genius.

[@TheTerryGene]

This series ran from 1994 to 1998. Dominic is played by Ewen Bremner from “Trainspotting” and “Wonder Woman,” a wonderful actor.

[@Davidjohnson-o6g]

Tysheen you have already reacted to this show before remember Kevin and Perry the teenagers Perry played by Kathy Burke who also plays Linda la Hughes from the comedy show gimme gimme gimme you've reacted to that show too 🤣p.s harry Enfield and chums was a show that aired in the early 90,s for 2 seasons😁👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.

[@TysheenOrane]

Yes. "Kevin lies" Omg, That episode was so funny. I need to react more of this show. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Davidjohnson-o6g]

@@TysheenOrane 👍

[@AlmightyCRJ]

Harry Enfield's television programme (later Harry Enfield & Chums) was 1990 on the BBC.

[@noomiolsson462]

You should react to " Women, keep your virtue" . It's a follow up to " Women, know your limits".

[@chrisshelley3027]

Hi Tysheen, do you remember very recently and you reacted to "My Blackberry Has Frozen" it was set in a fruit and vegetable shop, the man behind the counter is Harry Enfield, this would have been from the 90's as HIV treatment was not so wonderful back then.

[@TysheenOrane]

Wow. He's a great writer and actor.

[@jules.8443]

I was trying to think where I had seen the mother before. Her name is Georgia Glen (from Scotland). She is currently playing Miss Higgins in the BBC Drama, Call The Midwife.

[@stephenowens3687]

Wasn't she in The Bill at some point?

[@clarenceflam]

Way ahead of its time!

[@Hshdysissnwhwwu]

Pure British humour. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Davey_bfg71]

This show ran from about 1990 to 1998 thereabouts. To give some context it was not until 1967 that the UK Parliament introduced the Sexual Offences Act which DECRIMINALISED homosexual acts between men aged over 21. Although introduced in 1967 Scotland didn’t adopt this until 1980 and Northern Ireland, 1982. Criminalisation of homosexuality had been in place since 1533 under the reign of King Henry VIII. Further reforms in the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 lowered the age of consent between men from 21 to 18, then amended from 18 to 16 in 2001. The dad character in this sketch I would guess would have been a child of the 1950’s. This very probably looks ridiculous viewed through the 2022 lens but that is part of it’s genius, great comedy writing holds a mirror up at us and can reflect just how ridiculous an outlook on things we may sometimes have. And when this aired a lot of people I’d imagine would have still not had a great understanding and were still ignorant about AIDS. I am completely and utterly opposed to cancel culture in anyway shape or form, I think it is ludicrous in particular to scrub anything from the past, history is a great teacher. I think we can laugh at the dad and at the same time be a little sympathetic. The sketch and the character are not anti-gay, they are confronting something of which seemed foreign to them. Progress has been made, regrettably it took an enormous amount of time getting there.

[@tarotbyamber7233]

This was back in the 90s, Harry Enfield is very popular in the UK, try watching some of carry on movies, look up actor sid James

[@PARA2417]

This episode was made in 1994.

[@robertbryce5444]

yes it was the 80s

[@blaze1148]

No it was the 90's.....96 I think.

[@Isleofskye]

Hi Tysheen Harry Enfield's idea was to create "faux vintage black and white films " to give the impression they are old but they were actually made in The 1990's:)"Harry Enfield-Pharmacist You have hit the comedy jackpot with Harry Enfield:). If you put in "Harry and Paul "Woman Know Your Limits" and many others. ENJOY:)

[@TysheenOrane]

I did "Women know your limits" 6 months ago. 😂

[@Isleofskye]

Yes,of course and I saw your reaction again today:)

[@BaronVonGreenback1882]

There is a second part of this sketch, when the men go to the local pub after dinner.

[@tardeliesmagic]

British comedy...the best! The gay community back them found this so funny & wasn't offended.

[@shaunkelly9860]

The English go through life being terrified of saying the wrong thing, which makes this even funnier.

[@dampnickers]

@Paul Mcdonnell agreed, Paul. Never had much of an issue saying what I think. 😎

[@MrDaiseymay]

THEIRS ANOTHER HALF TO THIS SKETCH, WHEN THEY GO TO THE LOCAL PUB., WITH MORE 'COCK-UPS'.

[@peteboothe5891]

There is another 2 mins to this video which is the best bit which you have missed

[@08wolfeyes]

If you liked this one then you might want to check out his sketch called " Women, know your limits!", ahhahaha! 😂😂

[@earlofdrumer1851]

Now this is comedy! 😂

[@voiceover2191]

Funny, most would feel bad for the son, who is completely embarrassed by his father, but you felt sorry for the father.

If you do more Harry Enfield you won't be disappointed. He's good. Try, 'Women....Know Your Place, sketch/skit. Short and sweet.

[@CMDRRustyDog]

Yes this is classic. Along with the one where he plays one half of an American couple (the one on the bus) :) Those are amazing.
