  • Love William Hansen. A return to civility and manners would be a great improvement right now.
  • @angiemail8459
    William is absolutely right. Good manners is selfless and a person with good etiquette puts others at ease, whereas bad manners makes others uncomfortable.
  • I enjoyed that! My first boss was a man who taught business etiquette. Never be late, be smart and always polite. Has stood me well into my 60s!

    How Lovely William is and what a beautiful voice he has . Nigel always has interesting guests on . Very Enjoyable !!
  • I'm fed up that people say Toffs, it's the problem with our life, listen to this man and things might be better.

    It's actually nice to listen and watch someone with impeccable manners. It comes across as educated and decent rather than snobbish. Standing when a teacher enters the room, table manners, polished shoes and well groomed hands are a mark of someone with self respect and to be admired. Theres nothing more fanciable than a man with well cut groomed hair, crisp white shirt, suit and polished shoes🥰

    I really am enjoying Talking Pints. The people interviewed, the subjects covered, the serious, not so. Always informative, amusing and so interesting.
  • Maybe Nigel is confusing snobbery with etiquette. Etiquette is probably the opposite in that you never think the other person is lesser than you.
  • Our society has written off basic manners as being 'posh', which has given way to vulgarity and crassness. Nigel was uncharacteristically quick to associate etiquette with class, in my view.
  • @afreeman63
    I am frequently appalled at the lack of table manners nowadays.
  • William Hanson is a fantastic speaker. This is a fascinating conversation.

    Brilliant. Inspiring. Lovely to see this. Well done, GB - super piece.

    I am not saying I particularly like snobby ‘Toffs’ but for goodness sake this country definitely needs a culture uplift, having shed loads of cash doesn’t necessarily mean you are instantly cultured either, far from it, I am certainly not spoiled with cash, but I like to have some standards and manners which I and members of our ‘working class’ family were brought up with.
  • @gingerbaker4390
    I find having manners and being courteous is very useful especially in business. People treat you seriously.
  • I don't like colleagues who think they have the right to challenge other male colleagues who wear a tie. Leave them alone. Pointless conversations.
