i only remember corfu 06 as the facebook wank photos

just a realistic place lower middle class brits go on holiday too. there was a huge british expatriate population/obsession with greece in the 00's. lot of people going arab countries these days (muh pay/work life balance) and obviously spain.

>Dobby's Corfu '06
>Jez's parent's Corfu property
>April and Angus' Corfu relationship trouble

and there's definitely more than that, I just can't remember them off the top of my head.

>just a realistic place lower middle class brits go on holiday to
This.

>Scum class
Ibiza
Magaluf
Majorca

>Lower middle class
Corfu
Crete
Cruise ships

>Real middle class and above
Literally anywhere

Because the country fucking is

youtube.com/watch?v=GrnNblG5IDY

Fuck all these cunts by the way.

jesus christ brits are so revolting

>>>Real middle class and above
>Literally anywhere

Funny how 99% of them end up in South of France.

do britbongs really do this?

What the fuck

Jesus I hate normies so much

not the guy you replied to, but most of the people i know who go to the south of france/have family holiday homes there are (lower end) millionaires

of course you can be a billionaire and working class but still.

Is this like Bali for aussies?

Fucking hate this cunting country

wait till you guys watch sun sex and suspicious parents

kino

>british normie reality show
>EH EH EH EH AH AH AH AH starts playing

I know someone whos currently a cop in Corfu.

>mfw he tells me stories about either the British idiots they had to arrest, the British idiots they had to take a signature from after they woke up in a hospital or the British idiots they had to send to the embassy in a bodybag

>[Any spring break whore video]
jesus christ yanks are so revolting

at least they're attractive whores

every single girl in that video looked inbred

You only find them attractive because they're your family, Cleetus.

im not american

can we not turn my thinly-veiled Peep Show general thread into an uninspired yank vs brit thread about who has the uglier and sluttier proles

Crete is actually a great place for a holiday, incredibly cheap and very unpopulated even at peak tourist times.

I think the saddest thing in the world is a lower end millionaire who thinks they are the shit then realize there are people who are much richer than them.

Northerner here, never even heard of anyone going to Corfu. Everyone goes on about Ibiza and Magaluf

I'm currently rewatching it with my sis and we made it to season 5. Jeremy's manager really could had been the one, right?

Exactly. On Spring Break, meaning they are at least in college.

These are literally just people off for two weeks from their tile laying/call center jobs.

>>Northerner here, never even heard of anyone going to Corfu. Everyone goes on about Ibiza and Magaluf

Yeah you idiot see Fucking Northern scum.

she's crazy. Sophie was "the one", and that was the whole point

Don't know why Toni wasn't around for longer, one of the best secondary characters in the show. Seasons 1-3 are the best, the rest are good, even 9 is ok

What's the actual point of lads holidays? To get drunk in a place with SUN? They are pointless and you may as well have just ended up staying back home since you would no doubt run into someone you know from your city.

>muh crystal skulls

Yeah but good sex.
Not a really good fit though was she? Always struck me as a bit of a boring person, even by Marks standards. We never really got to see much of their good times before the series started.

that's the whole point. No one was going to be a good fit; Mark was doomed to repeat his parent's relationship

>MUH SUN
>MUH CHEAP BOOZE I CAN GET AT HOME
>MUH 4/10 STUCK UP STACEY WHO THINKS SHE'S A 10/10

Working class Geordie lad. My family only ever went to Disney World each year apart from the time we went to Mexico, Canada and Cyprus.

Are things really that expensive down south that the middle classes go to places like Corfu on holiday?

Fellow Newcastle user here, how come there's no comfy Brit sitcoms set in Newcastle? I think there could be a lot of potential.

I would rather hang myself

A guy i lived with use to watch it "ironically"

Aww, did your wife leave you for a Manc or something?

>that music choice
why are brits so goddamn mean spirited

>STACEY
in england her name is Sarah but she goes by Saz.
She has a fridge body and weird flat man face with too much concealer so she looks like a mannequin.
She wears her hair in a ponytail so high she looks like a palmtree, and she wears it extra tight so that it acts as a discount facelift.
The sun only shines for a week every year in england, so she is orange from fake tan. She applies this before going on holiday because she is too self conscious about looking pale on the beach while she gets a real tan.
She always has at least one pink piece of clothing on which only draws attention to how trashy and unfeminine she is.
She doesn't like music but listens to daytime radio music to drown out the silence in her head. She votes for big brother contestants and aspires to be one herself.
She is 'mad' about chocolate and claims she can't help herself. She thinks this is her personality.
She is dead-eyed and grim-faced except when drinking with her identical mates, in which case she is embarassingly loose and glass-shatteringly loud.
Her main habitat is northern england, Blackpool for a family holiday and Majorca or Ibiza for a real vacation.

>To get drunk in a place with SUN?
I suspect so, British summers don't have that.

What is our equivalent to Chad, Adam?

>all those potato framed faces, pudgy mongoloid eyes and crooked teeth
whites are truly master race amirite?

Lad

>>in england her name is Sarah but she goes by Saz.

It's fucking sad how true everything is this post was

>greece related episode
>sirtaki starts playing

People who glamourize binge drinking or excessive drug use are the scum of the fucking earth and I wish theyd to be purged

because of the unintelligible accent and most people don't like watching shows with subtitles

>tfw a guy I went to school with is in this
>being escorted around the hospital

Do girls honestly still tan themselves like an oompa loompa?

Their new show is very funny.

it really isnt

And who would have thought the guy who wrote this and the IT Crowd would have been a massive sexist racist tosser himself?

Suddenly all these little "jokes" make perfect sense once you rewatch them with that knowledge in mind.

nothing the pair of them have done has been very funny outside of Peep Show

You aren't real.

Pretty much, yes

>glamourize binge drinking or excessive drug use
wtf is your problem.
some of us don't have nice lives user, born into council estates full of crime and drugs, going to shit schools, working shit jobs.
if getting smashed out of their tree and fucking anything that moves is what they want to do then good for them, life is short and it only gets worse with age.
Plus drugs are fun as fuck, best feelings one could get on this earth.

Beats being a NEET fuck who mooches of their parents living in the suburbs away from the grime of life.

>raise a family, work your arse off, pay the bills
>really like cauliflower, but lazy wife won't cook it, instead she writes pornographic plays because she "can't get an orgasm" from you and needs to get her kicks from something else
>introduce cauliflower as a christmas tradition while the children are young
>looking forward to christmas all year long so you can have cauliflower with your family
>celebrate christmas at son's place
>spend two hours carefully wrapping a really good value shredder in advance
>son gets into an outburst, shouts at you about cauliflower, starts putting ham and gravy in the shredder you gave him
Mark's dad had a tough life.

The exact opposite is true.

I thought the Mitchell and Webb Look had some good sketches here and there. The Ambassadors was disappointing for sure though.

those are brits my dude, they are a little special

That Mitchell and Webb Sound > Look

youtube.com/watch?v=p_KlckKFFc0

The accent I would imagine.

Plus, people forget we exist (which has its perks). It always makes me laugh when people consider Manchester and Liverpool 'the North'.

Should we all be racist now Graham?

I don't have problem with drinking and drugs, lord know I've done plenty in my time, but as someone whose family is riddled with alcoholics and addicts whove ruined their lives with excessive use, I can't stand people like in the video above, and I came from the life in which you refer, I just didn't let it grab a hold of me.

If you're going to drink or drop be fecking sensible is all I'm saying.

Fine do that just don't breed. Can't manage to figure that one out though can you dole collector.

At least GOT has helped popularize the northern English accent a little.

>comfy Brit sitcoms set in Newcastle

Because it's Newcastle.

Please don't act like you haven't seen this shit at Sinners every fucking week.

Northern English accents are almost unintelligible to normal English speakers. The only ones worse are Glaswegian working class accents

Sound is definitely better than Look. There's a lot of good sketches in the radio show that they couldn't do on telly (either because of budget, or because the joke only works without visuals).

The only thing M&W Look had that was better were all those meta sketches where they're playing themselves and breaking the fourth wall.

bongs are such a disgustingly ugly people

Is there anything worse than Anglo normies?

Forward to 9 minutes.

He had no reason to insult Dobby. Mark's dad is a cunt.

>tfw I've had lads holidays to Ibiza, Magaluf, Majorca and Kavos.

Fight me.

no, you'd probably stab me

>Tenerife not on the list

Why? I mean if you've experienced it once, why do more of the same?

Theres more to the world than resorts and thots

Honestly, we acted pretty sound. Worst thing that happened was my mate passed out in one of those long urinals after we'd popped some pills.

>Implying I haven't travelled to other places.

Sometimes it's just nice to go to a foreign country for a week or so with your friends, and just forget about the shit that is real life. Spending 7 days in the sun with your mates drinking on the beach or by the pool, with non-stop banter and ripping the piss is a nice break.

how so?

WHO'S THE BEST PEEP SHOW GIRL

and pregnant by 22

Toni.

lads don't stab people they get into drunk fights and end up stabbed.

Super Hans.

this is strikingly accurate

elena from s7 was the hottest. god, the things i'd do.

tori is beautiful, looks like she'd be an incredible fuck.

Mate if that works for you, more power to ya, but maybe because I don't drink that I find that sort of lifestyle boring. I'd rather travel off the beaten path a see the real country, know what I mean?

poetry.

or pikey benidorm

isnt the writer a massive sjw?

She's alright but that voice is so fucking grating.

>the only properly spoken individuals are the two strippers
Good God man. The fuck is wrong with UK?

Cruise ships are for niggers and silent generation types who like to be on boats, but don't want to pay for the upkeep.

British chavs go there, to Kavos, mostly and have orgy/std parties. There was a blow job competition once that made it to the Greek media t. Greek.

The amount of fucking working class brit teenagers that cop it every year on Greek islands is insane. I swear a few lads die every week in summer in Zante

Why are English youth so trash? It seems like they're all literal retards
