Leeds butcher's brilliant video announcement is most Yorkshire thing you'll see all day

A Leeds butcher took to Facebook to make an important announcement in true Yorkshire style.

Malcolm Michael’s Quality Butchers, based in Kirkgate Market, say running during the coronavirus pandemic has been like 'starting a brand new business'.

Butcher Danny Malin filmed the video to announce their new click and collect service which ensures customers get their order within 15 minutes - and it might be the most Yorkshire thing you see all day.

There's even a plot twist at the end!

The video has been viewed by more than 27,000 people so far.

Malcolm Michaels, the owner of the butchers, told LeedsLive he has had to completely adapt to the situation as before the pandemic they did not have a delivery service in place.

He said they have been offering a next day delivery option but they are now adding a click and collect service as well.

He said: “It’s been incredibly busy. It’s been like starting a brand new business. The shops went to nothing and we had to set up a delivery service.

“We don’t have the power supermarkets have to do advertisements, we’ve only got Facebook - it was just a bit of fun.

“We had to completely adapt. We’ve never done deliveries before, I’m a bit old school, I’ve always believed all the best businesses in the world don’t deliver. We are good at what we do.

“But after this, we are going to be offering both services.”
