  • I love how those two guys built a big high security prison out of a handful of two by fours xD

  • That was hilarious.

  • Funny funny chaps 

  • I'm surprised 'Commie' or even just 'socialist' didn't make it into the Americans' list of so-called objections to this show, given the opening titles. Three cheers for a balanced political spectrum, instead of right right and more right.

  • Just because America doesn't understand REAL comedy and can't take jokes properly!! If you or any other country doesn't like it don't watch it!

  • Just because America doesn't understand REAL comedy and can't take jokes properly!!

  • People who are offended should go to Encyclopedia Dramatica and type in "offended". Maybe then they will stop being whiny little bitches.

  • guys it's not intentionally racist, its meant to make fun of upper class prejudices! You're so stupid to take this seriously

  • I think this is lacist and it upset me long time.

  • you fuckin losers need to grow a sense of humour its all tongue in cheek!

  • anything remotely racist or contraversial in this show is always portrayed in an ironic sense with no real malice involved, like the old "cholmondley warner" sketches were poking fun at British attitudes of the 1930s

  • see, this is why no one can make good TV like this any more, cos' some idiot is offended by something that means f*** all cos' it's a comedy so he thinks "I'll complain about this because it's racist or sexist" so they cancel the show. The death of a good show cos' one idiot is offended.

  • this isnt racist, its funny.....

  • Most of those sketches were certainly garbage, but racist and sexist?

    I think you're missing the point in the Northerners thing - it was a spoof of attitudes towards Northerners and Fillipina women.

    As for the American / S.African one, I can see where you're coming from but 'racist' seems a bit of a stretch! But what was supposed to be offensive in the prison-building one, the posh shop and the 'The Writer and the Landlady'?

  • People who took offense claiming this material to be 'racist' completely missed the point of what Harry & Paul are trying to portray! 1. it's not meant to offend it's just making a joke of generalisations and stereotypes which we've created. Jesus, if we can't make a joke out of ourselves and everday issues due to 'political correctness' bollocks-how ridiculous! They're even making a joke of english people here in respect to the north and south divide stereotypes. No-one is exempt!

  • Racism's healthy

  • I think this is quite funny. I didn't know I like british comedy until I saw "Death at a Funeral" -Being Human sealed the deal for me. and Ricky Gervais is damned funny.

  • america was built on slavery murder and the rape of other countrys

    and now they want to act extra sensitive...the same goverment is still working on inslaving us all ,if they havnt done it to most of us allready, atleast mentally .... two fingers up to you mister american man

  • america was built on slavery murder and the rape of other countrys

    and now they want to act extra sensitive...the same goverment is still working on inslaving us all ,if they havnt done it to the most of us allready, atleast mentally .... two fingers up to you mister american man

  • liked for content, not your title!

  • you people are so racist how do you know americans i am one are ignorant if you never went there can't hate noting or love noting cuz you never tried it feel me y'll?

  • You, my good sir, are an absolute idiot.

  • You have to understand what quotidien irony is without looking it up, to get most UK comedy. Being 'offended' means you were looking to be offended. There was a drama series called 'The SInging Detective' back in the 80s & a Tory MP watched it logging all the swear words. The opinions of such people hardly count in the great scheme of things and neither do yours much.

  • if its a fucking comedy show...A FUCKING COMEDY SHOW...take a joke man...

    this coming from a  filipno...

    apologies from the more open minded filipinos out there....nothing is off limits to comdedy...keep up the good shit brits

  • @mike170tube people like you are so sickening! why do you accept the western world making a joke out of you?!! its not like they haven't spread accross the globe, stealing everything from everybody else and then institutionalising their racism into their system for generations. these people have been regurgitating racism for centuries and idiots like you think its funny!! where is your conscious mind to realise that these people need to be stopped??

  • @BBCRacismWatch Just to get this straight, you don't think a self-declared Filipino person (mike170tube) is smart enough to identify racism and defend himself from it? Hmm. So who's being racist again? You might want to take a look in the mirror because it certainly isn't Harry Enfield or Paul Whitehouse.

  • so you get all crazy if a tv show picks on america?

    have you seen how much crap there is on american tv making fun of britain?

    yet we dont complain

  • Please, you must understand that England too has a fairly low level of audience sophistication. We also have comedies that purposely exclude the stupid. Well, that's not true, sorry. We do have comedies that are accessible enough for the general public, yet contain enough esoteric allusions for a more sophisticated audience as well though, such as NBC's 30 Rock.. and I get almost all of Harry and Paul's jokes and sketches; but then again I know al lot more about UK culture than most Americans.

  • What Harry and Paul episode is not either racist or sexist?

  • 'Harry and Paul Episode against Phillipinos without a Sense of humour' more like.

  • haha great! thanks for spreading the comedy gospel of harry and paul :D

  • Comment removed

  • Selvo68 wtf is going on in your mind if you think this is racist? Ok theyre making fun of Americans and all kinds of people including themselves, so what. Most of the sketches are satirical and are aimed at a British audience and youre obviously so paranoid and up your own! you think theyre being racist. Harry and Paul, best show currently on TV! Now off you go you British 'wannabes'.

  • Americans don't understand irony, the whole countries heads up its arse

  • @TheJme89Too true...If only cultural sensitivity worked both ways. I'm sick of having to refute allegations of racism/cruelty laid at the door of British comedy.

    You'd think these fools would have heard enough of the words irony/satire to look them up.

    Maybe that could be the key to Britain's economic recovery..exporting irony classes to the rest of the world?

  • @TheJme89 i fucking love the fact that they dont get it it just gives the rest of the thinking world to much more freedom to take the piss out of the stupid cunts

  • @TheJme89 don't include Canada in that lot please, we get it and we love this series. it's one of my absolute favourites.

  • @TheJme89

    You know it, there, sportsfan.

  • i'll never set my foot in america, that country is lost to retards

  • Very funny and not at all racist - You need to look up the definition of "irony".

  • Thanks for putting this up, funny stuff. I'd never have realised how funny this new series was if you hadn't posted this. 

  • lol but why you mad?

  • americans cant take a joke, or look at themselves and realise that is exactly what americans are like

  • pinays are the most racist race in the world: fact

  • wow! These guys know their Filipinas!

  • It's all in good fun. It is their sense of humor, as all peoples are different, so are the ways they develop their sense of humor. This is sarcastic and well intentioned, not racist or whatever. If you don't like British comedy, don't watch. I will bet that everyone who "took offense" is American because knock knock jokes stretch their comedic interpretation to the limits. I feel ashamed to be part of a populous as thick, incompetent, and complains as much as Americans.

  • @jaguwerforme ITS ALL GOOD FUN HA? IF I DID THE SAME THINGS TO YOU . DO YOU THINK ITS NOT AN INSULT TO YOU ?? CAN YOU PLSS DO THE SAME JOKE WITH THE BLACK PEOPLE? YOU CAN KNOW what is the differenece.

  • @jeslyfirefox STOP YELLING!!! The woman who played the phillipino said it didn't cross her mind as being racist because it was a fucking COMEDY SHOW. It was meant to be funny. Do the same thing to me, the British generalize about americans all the time, do I give a fuck? No, it's funny and mostly true! It's people like you who tie themselves to a pole in defense of a minority who in your mind should be pissed about something when they dont give a fuck.

  • @jaguwerforme well fuck you..can I ask you a favor? next time try a joke with negro in america and have a fun with their kinky hair and treat her like a maid in comedy style show.. it will be funny ha? lets see how they react asshole..

  • @jeslyfirefox I wouldnt mind being ripped on, i would laugh my ass off :D For example, my friends ALWAYS make jokes of me, and i make jokes of them, and we all laugh.

  • The thing about the British sense of humor is that we have lots of fairly third dimensional elements to it. We really like our 'tounge in cheek' stuff. 'Irony' and 'sarcasm'. Look at some of the greatest british sitcoms ever: Black Books, The Young Ones, Fawlty Towers. Why do we laugh when bad stuff happens to the main characters? Because they aren't actually nice people. That's why American sitcoms don't seem all that funny to me, because they have likeable protagonists.

  • Why do the comedy proffesors need to explain this all so much- British comedy should not be exported if it offends so many people who cant understand irony.

    The long running gag is that you can own a 'notherner' (someone from the north of England) like you can own a dog. When shown in England this did not offend people from the north of England, but Why is nobody on youtube upset that this is offensive to Northerners? becuase they don't get it.

  • i love racists

  • @gmoney52 fuck off phillip u canadian shit stain

  • @gmoney52 I think that comment says more about you than the English you stupid cunt :)

  • @gmoney52 Fuck you back.

  • I think this is incredibly offensive and it upset me long time.

  • @ganglandboss Good.

  • Comment removed

  • @gmoney52 Oh shut the fuck you up hippy tree loving dick head cunt

  • @gmoney52 . Seriously, go to bed.

  • @gmoney52, Again, child. you must learn to calm down. we british are not racist, its a comedy. its a joke. dont take it seriously. now go to bed. you've had a long day

  • then gmoney52, you shouldnt care about america ( not saying austrailian people do cuase theyre cool accent and stuff ).

  • @gmoney52 You silly child, Bother to learn geography, you most likely dont know england. and this is only COMEDY, and Sarcasm, so dont get wound up now, good boy.

  • this is so funny, and for all you overacting people, its a Joke something you people may have never heard of.

  • @gmoney52 britian has done more for this world then you ignornant twat can understand

  • lulz

  • What sort of c*nt would find this so offensive they had to put this up. Considering they find it so disgustingly offensive they still managed to sit through god knows how many series to find all these clips.

  • Pure GENIUS!

  • lmao at 1:24 to 2:11 "i'm american man...WOOO..american"

  • LOL theop is off his pc mind

  • Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse are comic geniuses. Apart from the Simpsons, Futurama, American Dad and some episodes of Family Guy. What do the septic tanks have to offer the world of comedy? oooo lets have a think..Friends? Chandler walks in.. could this room BE anymore untidy *then over the top canned laughter*. Exactly it's not funny.

    Just because British humour is a lot more intelligent than Yank humour doesn't mean you have to condemn it, even if you are too stupid to understand it

  • Wow I wonder how many Americans who are complaining here are going to vote Republican. Really leaves me speechless...

  • @gmoney52

    See that's being racist.

    I would never say bad things about america and then say my country of britain was the best ever.

    Britain has problems and so does america. But they aren't all racist.

    So don't bother saying this is a racist show and then insult a country and it's people while pretending you are above those rules of racism..

  • @gmoney52 finally! you're so right gmoney.. england needs to learn about cultural sensitivity... I mean lets just look at how the aussies treated the aborigines ... amirite?

    seriously chill out you overly sensitive cretin.

  • I'm from the Philippines and I don't find these thing racist, in fact i find it really funny.

    But the more funny thing is in my country, there are a lot stereotype jokes about Africans, Chinese, Indians, Europeans, Americans, Middle Easter, There's even joke about Amerasian and Eurasians etc. But I've NEVER heard or see a protest from those people i mentioned.

  • @ MikeDENDLESS - if there were more Americans who thought like that a lot of the world's problems could be solved, as for the sketches they are brilliant, i fail to see what all the fuss with these is about...

  • Thanks for uploading. Hilarious sketches. ;)

  • @gmoney52

    AHAHAHHAAHAHHAH!!

    Are you fucking serious? English are ignorant and racist?

    You American fucktards are the most ignorant and racist people of all! If you stopped being so ignorant, maybe you'd realise that America is the home of the KKK, possibly the most racist of all modern day groups.

    I hate Americans like you, going on the internet and saying how you are the greatest country in the world, it's time you realise that you're wrong.

  • in the highest of definition!... not.

  • Oh shut up everyone making a comment like the one im writing right now.

  • @gmoney52 Why do you hate England so much? I mean, your Dad must have, right? I mean, you haven't given any reason in particular other than that we're 'racist, ignorant fucks' etc, which makes me believe that your saying it without actually understanding why.

  • It makes me sad to the heart that America the so called freeland is the most ignorant country in the world

  • Racist ? Sexist? Man this is none of that. this is funny shit coming from great Britain I'm American and didn't find it offensive but those people saying, no that is racist, SHUT THE FUCK UP let the Brits mock about a bit.

  • you definitely need to appraise your definition of the word "racist". get the title fixed.

  • "well this table is proberbly in the general area of the type of toss your looking for. Its from a council flat in Swansea, so its pretty celtic". Classic!

  • GMoney52 let me just put you straight here......you have made a massive error.....in the history of time here on planet earth......not one single English person ever wished they were american. Please believe this. We are all perfectly happy having a whole brain rather than half a brain as you idiots do. What we know here is that the apes were descended from the americans and we were descended from the apes. Americans are living proof that gorrillas shagged pigs. Understand now you fool ??

  • Racist? Sexist? You think our country would allow a Racist and Sexist TV STAR! to win BAFTA's? Especially not with the state of our political correctness!

  • @gmoney52 stop being stupid and go outside and enjoy life

  • hitler hitler hitler - with that out of the way, can we please all watch the video now?!

  • I'd hate to be so stupid as to come across great comedy like this and denounce it as racist sexiat garbage. I bet sevlo68 doesn't have any G.C.S.E.s

  • I personal have mounted a great many young maids on a sunday in honk kong they all have a day off get pill'd up and get shag... This show is great

  • Damn i know that Americans don't get irony but you lot must be mad if you take it this seriously.

    There's not one racist or sexist joke in it.

  • @gmoney52 its a comedy yo stpid shit - people who make these kinds of sketches like enfield are not racist at all yo dipshit - thats why they make the sketch to take the piss - promise yo yo are a moron 100%

    oh and thanks for posting !

  • Comment removed

  • @gmoney, you sad, sad, pathetic human being.

  • @gmoney52 Does that include the English or not then?

  • @gmoney52 This isn't making fun of anyones race. Its taking the piss out of the British upper classes who are stereotyped as seeing everyone below them, i.e. The northerner who is would be seen as stupid or lazy (in their stereotypes) and the maid from the phillipines. It is taking the piss out of how the upper classes would see them as now better than dogs. And as for all your anti-England bullshit, where are you from that makes you feel so much superior?

  • @gmoney52 You absolute moron. This is a satirical programme, you just don't understand the jokes because they're restricted to England

  • @alfriscobernard

    here's a joke...all old men in england are gay peadophiles. All english people lose their virginity by the age of 10 so they can boast about it at school. All English people are stupid because they only speak only language and they are still no good at it "innit mate!". All English peolpe laugh at Indians when they offer to teach the English how to cook rice because the English already mastered the tecnique thanks to uncle bens All English people only eat Fish fingers and chips

  • @alfriscobernard

    All English police are fat wankers. All English people are fat wankers...............funny innit......yeah........

    Have you seached the internet for a picture of gary glitter raping a 5 year old girl??????

    would you find that fucking funny?????

    Yes?????

    I'm not surprised!!!!!!!

    THEN FUCK YOU MOTHER FUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111

  • @alfriscobernard No, I think it's because his screen name is "gmoney52."

  • Harry and Paul RULE!!!!!

  • HARRY AND PAUL ARE NAZIS!!! RACIST!!!

  • @TheZeth24 You're a fucking overreactionary idiot. It's satire. Fool.

  • @TheZeth24 You have no idea what a NAZI is, or hygiene.

  • Racist, sexist garbage? Fuck off you moron, its satirical

  • Theres no such thing as British upper class. This idiots are no different to black , mexicans and chinese inbreds. Europeans are trash.PERIOD.

  • @AkiNamaste You're a fucking racist yourself get the fuck of this video you retarded overreactionary fool. Thin skin much?

  • racist? fuck off mate its comedy! why don't you get a sense of humour

  • Man they tell pinay women to there face that they are here to be maids and whores. Why they didn't get a white women to mate with him.

  • @MasMachos why didnt they get a mexican, a black man, a dutchman, all of these options. People would complain either way. It's not racist that a majority of maids are filipino its a fact, they choose to be maids. get over it.

  • @MasMachos Because they wanted an easy cheap whore.

  • its taking the piss more of the upper middle class prick

  • It's satire.

  • You what?

  • take a joke will you -__-

  • I'm not sure whether to like the video, due to it's description.

  • @The111DooD

    It is quite the dilema.

  • racist, sexist brilliance from UK's BBC Harry and Paul

    don't thake things so seriously in life ;)

  • It's called comedy. Geordies and philipinos alike know this. Neither Harry nor paul are racsist

  • Hooray for racist, sexist garbage! Very funny stuff again from dear old Harry and Paul - the poor, decrepit crones.

    Get over yourself, you humourless twat.

  • this is not racist, its funny

  • Its too good !! Just laught at it.. Nothing Racist about it..

  • I see no racist sexist garbage, all i see is hilarity

  • Why can't we all just have a drop of krunk juice together?

  • this world is bad place, its full of bad things, war, racism, genocide, simon cowell, susan boyle, dog shit. to make this world a better place you need to turn these bad things into good things. how do you do that? you get the bad thing, racsim in this case, and you make it into something else. art, music comedy or what ever. they've turned it something we good because laughter is good.

  • America WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    lol funny shit.

  • Oh for goodness sake - it's taking cliches and blowing them up to pinpoint the sheer absurdity and anyone who really thinks this is worth campaigning against, I envy your having a life that is so easy as to allow you the luxury of considering this some sort of human rights violation. Pathetic.

  • You're right; this stuff is racist and bigoted. Most of the sketches are based on ethnical, regional and sexual stereotypes.  Harry and Paul are clearly talented performers and writers; it's a shame that they have such a narrow-minded view of humanity.

  • Isn't this also racist against Northerners? Grow a thicker skin you all.

  • this is fucking funny, what's the matter with you ya dick?

  • lol at his movie names in "the writer and landlady" bit...

    drugs for brunch!

  • this only a comedy movie,..their are also white maid but know nothing about households and proper hygiens they end up as an street prostitute,,during night you observe standing woman standing in a corner they are waiting for costumers

  • I didn't notice any sexism here...

  • its not racist because its done sarcastically and ironically rather than maliciously so its infact making fun of people who believe such ridiculous stereotypes but maybe some peoples sense of humor isnt evolved enough to realise this which is a shame.

  • "racist and sexist" blah blah blah. Lets laugh at it bevause it is funny.

    I'll laugh at any liberal "lets be less funny because I do not understand it and I will misconstrue anything you do as signs that I am a better person" too. They might not understand the fun in it but they'll know I'm laughing at them.

  • If you laugh at the Pik sketch, for example, and just let it pass, you're tacitly agreeing that white South African men are boorish pigs. Why do Harry and Paul base almost all their sketches on stereotypes? Because, the fact is, most of us look at the world through stereotypes and we find the sketches funny as a result.

  • @seymourg12 Man you're so completely wrong, it's painful. You're a very weak person.

  • its funny not racist. bloody idiot.

  • If you think this is racist and sexist, why upload it?

    Is this your way of admitting your prejudices?

  • who is the sheeple that says this is racist, its just a comedy show.

  • its funny, bloody hell dont take a comedy sketch show seriously

  • being racist and beingi sexist is coool

  • Lighten up guys - it's a comedy sketch show and it pokes fun at everyone without exception. And it's fucking funny. As I say, lighten up and have a laugh FFS.

  • I have no tolerance for idiots like YOU selvo68 who have no understanding of IRONY.

  • hays......... FUCK ALL THE AMERICANS!¬!!!!

  • You daft spoon.

    Comedy based on circumstances in Britain is

    Not racist.... you spanner.

    DRY YOUR CHIN

  • How are they racist? Its a JOKE. Some people need to develop a sence of humor.

  • think about it if you did not have English people, life as you know it right now would be quite different.

  • Well, your comment rmtran is a bit prejudice, but I dont believe english are superior to everyone, but seen as you do, heres some facts to say fuck you English people are better than you - It is the English who created electricity it is the English who gave you almost every sport in the world, it is the english who invented the first light bulb, not Edison, it is the English who founded the largest empire in the world known to Man,

  • Also the jet engine, the police and the computer

  • and the rifle, the bullet, the machine gun, the first articulated gun, the first external combustion engine, the first internal combustion engine, the first engine powered mill, the first factories, the first weaving machine, the first cameoflage uniform, the first nationwide communication system and one of, if not the, most comprehensive national power grid.

  • ahahahaha harry and paul are legends =)

  • there racist!! there making fun of Americans!! LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!

  • It could be said that you're being racist yourself by trying to portray Northeners as a different race!

    No, in all seriousness, you're wrong...

    Twat.

  • I love youtube arguements, sooo funny

  • what i cant stand is when people complain about racism/sexism even when its not directed at them i mean i think its racist to assume the filipenos etc. cant take a well meant joke

  • also i forgot to mention how are the father son bilders/ movie writer/ radio old people/ i saw u comming racist or sexist you idiot

  • Comment removed

  • poor little selvo is upset at a joke.

    Going to threaten beheading?

    Dry up son, and grow a pair.

  • I wouldn't mate anything with Paul Whitehouse!

  • you need to stop taking this so seriously

  • i cant believe you got all butt-hurt from that little skit. what you need to do is calm down, get a hold of yourself, get a grip, and stop being such a cry baby.
