[@hugohackenbush3524]

Same here. I'll never forget how much I and my brother laughed when we saw this at the time. We spent months talking like Julio on the building site we were grafting away on. I couldn't quite get it, passable mind, but my brother was 100% spot on (he's a natural). All these years later, we're bother well into our 60s and he'll still crack me up at family do's. The best one was at a funeral. I nearly passed out trying to suppress a laugh, I had to go outside the church. People were coming up to me later in the pub and saying how good it was to get those tears out lol

[@michaeljames4904]

@DnB and Psy Production No. It was a fake retrospective documentary, hosted by the culture presenter Melyn Bragg, about an ageing retired actor. Played by a young Enfield, the mockumentary then goes on to have clips, going back decades through this invented actor’s onscreen career, and Harry ends up mimicking the entirety of British cinema history, both in style and content. So, essentially, it’s a parody of great veteran acting stalwarts, like Sir Richard Attenborough or Sir John Mills, who appeared in hundreds of movies over many decades playing dozens of different character styles, in British cinema.
