The header of this thread reminded me of the 1980's Phillips radio ad with Mel Smith & Griff Rhys Jones: The shop bell goes, an East-End jack-the-lad type walks in (Mel Smith) and is faced by a patronising shop assistant (Griff)
Morning squire. Morning sir. I’d like a videocaster please. A video recorder. Any one in particular? Well I’d like it to have some specifications. Yes. And functions. I must have some functions. And lots of flashing lights, cos I’m technical. I see, did you have any model in mind?
Well, a friend mentioned the Hari-kiri, kibuki, kissuni, er ka-watchamacallit, you know the Japanese one, the 2000, cos I’m very technically minded, you see. I can see that, sir. So I want one with all the bits on it, all the Japanese knobs, lights and bits, you know the 2000. What system? Er, well, er, electrical I think because I’d like to be able to plug it into the television you see. I’ve got a Japanese television. Have you?
Yeah I thought you’d be impressed, yeah, the 2000, the Hokie Kokie 2000. Well sir, there is this model. Yeah, that looks smart, yeah. 8 hours per cassette, all the functions that the others have.
Good, yeah, good. And I know this’ll be of interest: a lot of scientific research has gone into making it easy to operate. Good, mmm, good yeah. Even by a complete idiot like you. Yeah ... pardon? It’s a Philips. Doesn’t sound very Japanese. Nah, a Firips. I mean a Firips, it’s a Firips. Yeah, er, well it is a 2000 is it? Oh in fact it’s the 2022, mmm.
Mmm, no, nah, nope, it's not tehnical enough, it hasn’t got enough knobs and flashing lights on it, no. Now... what’s that one over there with all the buttons and flashing bits? that looks much more technical like what I’m after!..... ...That’s a washing machine sir!
