On Big Train Simon Pegg was always the master of the childish reaction of "Oh! Right!"
if you're ever feeling a bit under the weather just watch a Big Train skit ;)
Yeah
Simon Pegg being my brain cell for 2 minutes
This is what made British comedy so good! Fantastic sketch work.
pretty sure Peter Sellars Spike Milligan and the Pythons would give you a good argument, if they could
The whole time when the coach was getting in the point is actually funny ,the ending is a nice surprise
I remember seeing this when it was first on TV years ago, and it still remains one of my favourite sketches :D :D
There literally hasn’t been as good it since then.
More favourite than Mark Heap's gymnastics routine?
This is quite simply the rib-busting funniest sketch there has ever been. Ive seen this multiple times since it came out and I still crack up.
😁😁😁😂😂
When I first saw this I started laughing so hard I tore all my connective membranes and had to be rushed to hospital for life saving surgery. The only way they could get me to stop laughing was to electrocute my testicles. I'm now infertile and my wife left me for my best friend!
That’s the first time I’ve seen that. Brilliant!
I flippin well love Kevin Eldon
The ACTOR Kevin Eldon
Man, I just LOVE big train!
Laughed all the way through this, but the last 15 seconds had me in tears! Brilliant!
i like the end, just epic XD
Up there for best sketches ever this imho. “Back on the track” and peggs connection with the post is comedy gold.
One of the best comedy sketches ever,
probably the under rated show
Big Train only 2 series a shame classic show
It's underrated because it's under-aired, which is a shame when you consider all the other crap that gets prime-time showing
Backstage at the Nuremberg rally is absolute genius.
yay, simon pegg!!!
rararararara , this is so very good! I love this!
Great sketch - and all one take until the gag at the end. Superb
Adorabile!
" Me and my tiny Pony "... Hahaha. Watch that one too !
The way he veers to the left does for me!! Have a butchers at 'Schoolmaster' and 'Big Dog' sketches. Too funny!! 😂😂😂
Sorry my engleesch not so good. Why go to Butchers shop?
Isleofskye to buy meat 🥩
I heard off Butchers Dog. Same?
LOL he's got enthusiasm
You had ONE job Mike - just ONE JOB!!
I'd like to thanks youtube for thanking my mum over and over when i go to youtube! lol
Straight lineeeee !! omg hahahaha
great damn video lol
very good
Terrific
Brilliant
I miss Big Train sooooo much
brilliant
got cramps .. "straight line".. lmao
this is hilarious
You can't beat a good "COMEDY FALL!"
hahaha i couldnt stop laughing!
cup of tea xD
Straight line! Straight on the pole! Alright, have a cup of tea to wait for Ambulance👌
Such simple concepts in most of the Big Train sketches. All they really needed to do was set it up, & get the actors to do their stuff 😄
I think the starting before the gun is a great beat.
Too funny! lool
Didn't see that coming!
Hahah so funny 😂
I accidentally paused this and it looked like it he was stalling for ages.
this is deadly :)
Olympic Gold Punchline
Hardly Mike's fault. He never mentioned anything about straight line :(
Exactly! :)
BRit humour 4 ever!!
danke schoen
My. Goodness xx
Cup of tea and some milk mmm... perfect combination :D
Yes. Yes it is.
Too funny!
Hahahaah loool
BOOM-YUP!!!
genius
British athletes. Best in the world...
Bring it home for 2012, boys!
Oh Simon.
yes it is
The end is a bit funnier than the beginning ..
I've always liked british humour ;)
British and proud :D
Great sketch. If you're looking for another brilliant sketch on an athletics theme, then I recommend Mitchell and Webb's "glucozade port".
perfect timing! :-) btw, does this remind anyone else of the fry & laurie football coach sketch?
Dobre:)
Is it ok to use the audio of this clip on a podcast? I’ll put a link to this video in the bumpf.
thats funny
Ah I miss Finsbury Park
I have to say the comedic connection that these two have really amplifies not only the basic yet hilarious premise, but really engages the viewer and generates that crucial anticipation that makes it work. The timing and the beautifully constructed nature is absolutely text book. Well done guys, excellent work. My only mild criticism would be that the outfits worn could have been louder in appearance and a larger crowd watching would have given the viewer someone to laugh with. I think if the coach had groaned more after each fail and maybe slapped his thigh in frustration, that would have really underlined the annoyance that he was feeling and I believe the viewer would have fed off that. Still a good effort though but perhaps a view things to work on.
Dude this is a 14 year old video. Do you think they are still taking constructive feedback on a show that ended more than a decade ago?
@@Redskies453I’d hope so. I run monthly comedy classes and we will very often go over old comedy scripts from decades gone by and I explain to my students the areas of improvement.
That's totally Monty Python.
Is that your way of telling us that you’re American?
@@kickedinthecalfbyacow7549 Naturally.
I’ve always wondered what a coach of a 100 metre sprinter actually does. Now I know all the work that goes on behind the scenes. . When you see them on the TV it all looks so easy but there’s hours of training gone into it. People think it’s just a matter of waiting for the gun and then just run as fast as you can in a straight line …….think again.
lol
So mich of being a gold medalist at the olympics
There's a real difference between getting something, and appreciating it.
@EvilBoobs6 "Unfortunately"?
Mitchell and Webb stole this for their clap sketch
2:17 did he mean a muffit of tea?
Goes perfect with a chocolate chowks
How weak minded of me
I think its brilliant!! :D I mean, some of the humour of Big Train I dont get though. just a question of taste. Its differant for everybody
@emotzki no they aren't...
@annabelisme Congrats on coming in 2nd last then.
@EvilBoobs6 Unfortunately?
we just want to save some bullets
Maybe he should try running backwards, like that woman who was in the news recently.
how do you say ice cream in czech?
Zmrzlina..
the sketches were written by two irishmen
Kevin Eldon
I don’t get it. Why was he running sideways?
@EvilBoobs6 I'm Dutch :D
A Dutch person saying they're Dutch. It's what they do.
I think this is what people call relativity, even though two people are only 1 meter apart, sound has to travel 340m to reach his ears.
Shoot down at ground..may be then no delay
Because it's a greate excuse to do fuck all. And tea's pretty cool to drink.
@EvilBoobs6 lol I love how everyone feels the need to point out that these guys are British. Proves how ignorant we Americans are. Just say if you like it or not. It doesn't matter if you're British.
i was using shorthand..
j/k = just kidding.
Is this a training video? I just wasted 3 minutes. Should I push off on the gun or anticipate it before the trigger?
mycal64
@annabelisme You have my humblest apologies. I hope Daddy bought you a new car for your success? Just think, you were only one away from Bronze!
That moment when you realise that the personal trainer is Penfold.
Lazy? I've never been to Britain so I dunno about whether the British in general are lazy or not. The furthest place I had been to was Paris and Melbourne. And I can definitely tell you that people in both countries are slow as hell. If they come to live in Hong Kong, they would definitely die before they even get a job.
However, the British colonial government did quite well in Hong Kong. So I don't think Briish are lazy.
Remember when Mitchell & Webb shamelessly copied this with the ‘when I clap, you clap back straight away’ sketch.
People doing things at the wrong time is a pretty standard sketch premise
in 2021 some probably get offended by this
There's no logical reason as to why characters act the way they do in British Comedy
@rebelbiscuit
The same writers as Father Ted no less. And, like Father Ted, I cannot think of a single bad episode of Big Train.
Back when the BBC was funny
I don't get it, he just wasn't reacting like super fast enough? Well, what's a few seconds? He'll get there.
I can tell you don't run track. One second is the difference between world record and a normal professional. 2 seconds is the difference between world record and high school level. 3 seconds is the difference between world record and a beginner. 4 seconds means you're an average to below-average person.
So, faster is better?
If you really don’t get the joke let me know. I’ll explain it.
