The actress did a brilliant job because I genuinely hated her

I’m pretty sure Ricky wrote this show in a way where he could have all the best arguments that we have all dreamed about in the shower

ricky is always spot on with writing this stuff lol

Gervais stated he had this happen to him and ordered something else, but now that he writes the script he wants to play around with reality.

My dad went to Steak and Shake one time, ordered his food and a shake. They had a habit of bringing out the food first and then the shake. Dad told them he wanted the shake first and the waitress told him they couldn’t bring do it that way. The manager said the same. So dad said ok, I’ll just take a milk shake then, I’m not hungry. Once they brought it out he said ok well I’m hungry now I’ll order some food. Of all the places in life to take a stand. SMH.

The pettiness at the end is something I can really get behind. Bad enough that they won't give it to him but to stare at the end to make sure he won't eat it is triggering. You just want to piss them off because they are pissing you off.

"have any money" "no" "loser" i died LOL

I'm a fully grown bloke, but I don't consume much sugar. I once went to the cinema and ordered a small coke, and a small popcorn - they gave me the kid's box. It was awesome - I got a free, crappy plastic toy and extra chocolate.

£4.99 for 3 fishfingers, a spoonful of beans and slice of bread? Just go to Tesco fam

Reminds me of the story of one lady at the bank. She wanted to withdraw 10$ but the teller said she could withdraw only a minimum of 100$, the lady said it was her money and she could take out how much ever she wanted but the teller refused. So the lady withdrew 100$, took 10$ and told the teller to deposit the remaining 90$.😂

The funniest scene in the series

You just know this is Ricky Gervais real life angst

I remember I was with my grandad at a fish and chip place it had a takeaway and a sit down restraunt so my grandad said can we have a jumbo fish and they said “that’s only for the sit down restraunt” so my grandad said “why if you can’t fit it in the box just cut it in half an put it in two boxes I’ll pay the extra box” they still said “we can’t” so he said okay we’ll sit down then and once it arrived he said “can I take these home in a box I’m not hungry now” so they gave him two boxes to take it home in 😂 I don’t understand why they do it

This was relatively entertaining but then sight of him him grabbing the fish fingers and stuffing them into his mouth was joyous 😂

The one person who disliked this video was the waitress

"your just gonna eat the child's portion" "I'm not a child so that's literally physically impossible."

The way he stares at her at the end 😂😂

I genuinely didn't expect that the waitress will keep an eye on him.

The line "its not cause they're unemployed "... is hilarious..Bwahahahaha

Fair play to that actress. She did a brilliant job 😂

Went through a dark phase this show kept me alive! Rick is an underrated Great!.

Well, he'll have fish fingers and beans *twice.*

That finishing move aka the dirty swipe gets me every time LOL

The first time I saw this I cried laughing for a good 5 minutes. Can't wait for part 2

I order the kids 'fish and chips' at my local chippy all the time. The adult version is too much to eat. They always look at me like I'm some sort of cheapskate who doesn't want to pay full price.

I also once tried to order a child portion because I'm 4'11 and they refused to do it. Smaller people need different portion sizes, we cannot eat the same as a 6'2 person. I then left and went to another restaurant and had no problems there

What a Moronic rule... He's still ordering food, regardless if its for kids. I know it's fictional, but my god my head burst a vessel from this

This show is basically Gervais expressing his opinion about illogical rules/relatable topics. And I love it.

This is actually one of the best series I've ever seen, hilarious, sad It's got everything.

I wonder how many fish fingers they went through to get that scene!

This scene made me realise what a prick I used to be working at Nandos insisting adults couldn't order kid's meals. Oh well!

when I first saw this scene, I thought, how's he going to get out of this one then? then that, hahahaha

This reminds me of going to a chippy with my Grandfather as a kid. He didn’t really eat chips so just ordered two fish and the waitress kept arguing that it was a set price and came with chips. After some back and forth he was like ‘fine charge me for the chips but don’t put them on my plate’. He was really against wasting food.

The actress is great

I'm going to start being more like him! 😅

"He'll have fish fingers and beans... Twice 😂😂😂

I love how this show is so grounded in reality.

I've watched this scene 5 times in a row and each time I end up laughing hysterically! Wonderful comedic bit!

“That’s only on the children’s menu, I’m afraid” -Famous last words

I would have just said " fine I'll spend my money elsewhere " and left...

Little chap who played George was really good in this, angelic little face, was excellent opposite Ricky, very natural.

I bought two pizzas in ASDA once, 4 toppings each. They absolutely refused to allow me to have 3 on one, and 5 on the other..!

Her acting is spot-on. Just as he's devouring the food her expression is full of disgust but also full of burning desire to break away from the miserable corporate life she's in & admiration & even desire for him.

Got the big ass cook to come out and intimidate him with a, "Both of those for him are they?"...followed the mouth stuff is just PERFECT

Honestly this scene had me in stitches, so so funny.

I would not pay £2.99 for that, never mind £4.99

A superb programme, Ricky at his best.

This happened to me before getting fast food on a night out after the pub, but the guy behind the counter was understanding when I told him I had hardly any money left for an adult meal. He served me without an issue. Great guy.

"you'll just eat his" oh yes, I've always dreamed of paying £10 for a normal portion of fish fingers and beans...

Ricky is amazing

When he said, “he’ll have fish fingers and beans twice” I fucking lost it

Just brilliant Ricky. Awesome sketch.

I love the part where the cook comes out of the kitchen to back up the waitress.

Absolute madlad

That last bite 💀 Felt like when you open a bag of potatoes chips in the classroom and your friend ask for some

I was prepared for him saying "Would you share?" of something like that, but he did something way better.

I had something similar happen to me recently. A lot of restaurants nowadays ask you if you’ve got any allergies when you sit down and I told the waitress I had a peanut allergy (not a nut allergy, just peanuts). At the end of the meal there was a chocolate mousse that I fancied for dessert and it came with amaretti biscuits which are made from almonds which I _don’t_ have an allergy to, but I’m just not particularly keen on. So I asked the waitress if they could just leave them off but she said no they couldn’t do that. I asked if it was because the biscuits were all broken up and mixed in with the mousse but she said no, they just couldn’t do it. So I said, fine I’ll just have it as it comes because I can always just not eat them but again she said they couldn’t do that. I tried to explain that I didn’t have an almond allergy, that it was specifically peanuts, but she wouldn’t budge... It wasn’t until later I remembered this scene and I really wish I’d just had the person I was having a meal with order the Chocolate Mousse for me.

I work in a Cafe and I'm appalled by the waitress' behaviour (I know it's just a show, but this happens in real life) being so rude to a customer because they wanted a child's portion instead of an adult portion and saying that they couldn't order it but didn't give a legitimate reason (like, if they only had enough ingredients to make one, and if that's the case, you offer/recommend something else to them) God I felt like screaming "they're the customer! If they want to order a kids' portion sized meal for an adult then let them! They are the one paying for the meal; if you argue with them they'll leave and you will lose business for the cafe!" I know that people working in customer service still behave like this towards customers but it's appalling and managers should not let them get away with it. I'm glad Ricky didn't let it slide; good on ya, mate!

I love Ricky Gervais. He's the mood ❤️❤️😂

This is one of my favorites sketches because his logic is indisputable...and I laugh so fucking hard when he grabs those fish finers and stuff them in his mouth...every time....just brilliant!!

I am an adult, but I do still enjoy fish fingers and other stereotypical "children's food" from time to time. Personally, I don't understand why certain cafés/restaurants are fussy about adults eating from the children's menu...... 😂

I remember being at IKEA and wanting the children menu because I didn't feel that hungry, dude behind the counter instantly singled me out as 'The Adult Who Wants The Child Menu'. I feel as an older adult in the pandemic era, I should taken it and chucked it it all at his face.

What a perfect frame to end it on, good job

Ricky gervais is such a lovely gift from the comedy gods

I was thinking maybe he'd ask for a doggy bag. "Oh you know what I don't think he can eat it all, can we get a doggy bag", and then proceed to eat it as they're walking out the place or as they're paying in front of them. Didn't expect this full spite scene 😂

Genius!

brilliant. You take the thought that passes us with crazy humor.

Bro beat the system

It's absolute madness to think an adult cannot order from the childrens menu....

Não me canso de rever isso! Kkkkk

Wasn't expecting to love this show as much as I did

This video is chill, hilarious and reminds me of my dad, I love him.

My mans was just trying to lose weight

Hahahaha need to watch this now

That's so true. when you've lost something you really love, you've lost everything and you just don't care anymore

"You got any money?" No "Loser" 🤣

''It's not because they are unemployed'' Hahaha

There are actually people in the world like that woman ,that’s the scary thing !

That's just great. I mean Ricky is brilliant

Omg it sounds so crunchy - I love it

i love this scene. there's a pub near me that specializes in pies, but won't let anyone share them as they "are good value for money" they are too big for a little kid to eat a whole one...i'd love to have the balls to do something like this the next time i was in there

This reminds me of a petty situation I had a couple months ago in an M&S. I ordered my father three bean chilli on a baked potato. When they brought our food, they said that they didn’t have any baked potatoes, so just plopped some chilli on a plate (nothing else as replacement). When I asked if someone had considered going down to the food hall to get some baked potatoes (a common practice in M&S cafes if they ever run out of stock of something last minute), was told in response they didn’t know if they sold baked potatoes in M&S (they use M&S produce exclusively to promote the food hall) so didn’t bother checking. Then when I said, ‘Well ok, why not grab us some chips so he can have something with his chilli.’ The waitress came out sometime later with a portion of chips and then proceeded to stand behind us whilst we ate, when I asked if there was something she needed she stipulated she needed me to go and pay for the chips. In confusion I asked why do you need me to pay for the chips she stated that because I had ordered an extra portion of chips in addition to my order I had to pay…I pointed out the obvious…yes this is because you had no baked potatoes, and didn’t charge me less for the fact. Even when I suggested charge me for the chips and then refund me for the baked potato they couldn’t seem to get it in their brain. At that point I just asked them to refund me for the food and walked out!

I freaking love ricky gervais. Hella funny.

searching 20mins for a youtube video just to eat cold food for 2mins is a vibe

most satisfying scene in the whole entire film history.

1:41 me when my mother says wait for your tea to go down, then you can have pudding

this show is amazing 😂😂

He is brilliant!!!

This actually just happened to me. I wanted to order a kids pizza for myself, but apparently I’m not allowed because I’m not a kid.

It's the way that he drags the fish fingers through the beans that makes this scene, its so subtle that you barely notice it, he could have just picked them up, it's that slight difference that's makes Gervais one of the best.

That was a good laugh 😂😂

Fantastic scene!!!!😂😂😂😂

After watching enough Ricky Gervais I always think I am ready for anything he can come up with - but when he grabbed the handful of fish fingers and dragged them across the beans I had to scream out loud.

It’s not far off the truth in some places, I went to a famous fried chicken place years back, I ordered chicken that you could dip in sauces, the young lady asked me which sauce I would like and read out the 3 choices, sweet and sour, tomato or bbq. I said BBQ she said sorry sir we are out of stock, oh I said can I have sweet and sour, sorry sir we are out of stock.... at this point I innocently laughed thinking it was a joke, she just starred at me with the same look the actress brilliant gave to RG in this video, oh I said tomato? She said yes sir...... lol 😂

Ricky nailed the stupidity of the child’s menu - live it 😂😂

1:10 the way he says “nah” to her is fucking killing me

My Mother is 82 and she can rarely eat a full adult size portion. When we go to the restarant near our house she always gets a kids meal. They are perfectly fine with it.

This is a homage to Five Easy Pieces diner scene.

Brilliant and hilarious..😂😂😂

I order Happy Meals all the time as an adult 😂
