peace ...

Must be the best sceane in the series.

This one, or the one where the vet gives the wrong dog his final shot

[basstard013]

@RHMouse The dog exploding in the fireplace! Almost died laughing.

Also quite painful to watch :

- The kid with his kestrel stuck in the powelines.

- When he puts down the wrong dog.

Absolute gold.

Much as I agree with you... I suggest you take a closer look at the comedians brownpants listed. Just a thought.

[Quigsification]

@XavierAXB facinating



[July272007]

I am english and don't. Sorry how is this humor. Haha he killed a tortoise. Now it is dead. The woman thought it would be fine but now it is bleeding. Ha bloody ha.

[Ashleytb]

Do us a favour: Leave England.

[pubecat]

no i agree with the above as much as a crap vet is funny i dont think something dying is funny oh and a hint its the british broadcasting corp not the english broadcastinf corp

[Ashleytb]

You must have a hard time with black comedy such as this if you don't see the inherent funniness in something dying.

I'm not saying this to sound edgy, but graphic yet comical death, when done right as seen in this sketch, relies entirely on being so sudden and shocking that it comes as a suprise. It pays off.

No tortoises were actually harmed during this, nor does it promote animal cruelty; it's all just for a laugh, innit?

[pubecat]

yeah no i do know and i see why its funny but i find the local shops sketches are better i think the tortoise sketch is good but only because its cringy for the vet not because of the animals death i find human murder comedy to be funnier because that is very dark this is lost somewhere between dark and cartoon

[brownpants69]

Yeah- i agree- that poor tortoise. I mean, I know its not real, but do we all have to laugh at such an indignified end to it's life? I think we should bring back more traditional comedy like Arthur Askey, Max Miller, Tommy Cockles and Arthur Atkinson.

[TheSmithsLoverr]

yeah that goes for every kind of comedy it all comes down to a little explanation like that, its a stupid comment.

its better than my american comedy anyway.

[brukshut]

We can afford to be quite bold.

[ailsaailsa]

ahahahahahaha ha ha haaaha ha

u know when ur crying wih laughter? this is one of rare things thast causes that XD

[spacegirl226]

i just did that. have mercy!

[missjackson666]

....................was he very old?

[EvilGerbil253666]

lmao!!!!!

[warrenjmfrancis]

WTF did he do to that turtle?!

[SirGeorgeUproar]

Cracks me up every time i watch it, tears of laughter rolling down my cheeks here. Pure class.

[englander1971]

HA HA HA HOE HUMMMMMMMMMM

[Woo0udda]

This is funny but scary at the same time.

[Lemmy15]

Part of the joke is that Mr. Chinnery looks remarkably like Tristan Farnon, one of the vets from All Creatures Great and Small. I suppose it's sort of irony.

[cynthiailly]

heh, yeah this is obviously an all creatures great and small parody.

[Miladyad]

Owful!

[PersianPaladin]

ROFL

[blinx182]

omg lol

[AyameHikarai]

Yayyy, BBC x]

[Shrubbs]

Haha that was terrible!

[henryritson]

This is my second favourite Chinnery moment - after the encounter with old bess the sheep dog

[korean77777]

thats so sad

[angrysoba]

Smart!

[djinsanity2000]

I think the joke is when the turtle blows up you fool! If you don't find it funny then bugger off and watch some american comedy like friends. League of gentlemen is class!

[SuperBlob]

Nah, not really. This, along with Little Britain is at the bottom of British humour.

Spaced however, THAT is class

[djinsanity2000]

I admitt league of gentlemen went downhill in later series, but I loved the first two. I'd have to have blackadder at the top of my list though.

[hexylia]

its british hummor your not suposed to get it

[MissHolloway]

where is the joke?

[callyjack]

He kills every animal he treats, it's kind of a running gag.

[WedlakeProductions]

that realy harsh i have a tortoise check out my video of him its called clover the tortoise

[Subculture]

I love that clip :D

[gheefreak]

Somehow, I fail to get any of this.

[NFXA113]

I don't think you ever well. Never mind.

[melmel74]

kinda sick... and bad taste

[classicftw]

Who has?

[PJG61scorpio61PJG]

Was he very old?  Hahahahahaahaahaa!

[chellbie]

oh nooo ha
