You won’t know whether to laugh or cry at this spoof UK investment ad
Now that the UK no longer has Prince Andrew out there drumming up business for the country – or for Pizza Express, at the very least – it might be time for an actual commercial to bring in that all-important investment.

This is just a sample of the praise they got after posting it on Twitter.
This absolutely hits the nail on the head … I think it’s their best one yet. https://t.co/S887rqaIXD

Not for the first time, someone said this.
Someone give the brilliant @larryandpaul their own TV show https://t.co/6oDhTSrj5Y

One hundred per cent would watch that.
Coincidentally, if you want to watch them live, they stream on YouTube on Thursdays at 9 pm.
You can also buy them a coffee – or some Yorkshire Tea – here
