  • Being a MAJOR Prince fan, I nearly killed myself laughing so hard! This is simply the best Prince sketch ever! So Sexy Motherfucking weird!

  • There is no laughter track on this, the clips are shown to a live studio audience and their reaction is recorded. Unlike intentionally inserting laughter.

  • I love it but it would be so much better without the laughter track.

  • fuckn yeah!!!!

  • Oh god theyre awesome. Simon Pegg all the way

  • when he said "by the artist known as prince", and the guy crawled up..i almost shat myself

  • I nearly choked when I first saw this. Brilliant! 

  • can someone explain this to a stupid foreigner like me? Thank you!

  • @Thanassiss the fact it's so random and dead-pan.

  • Yeah, it's funny now, but I went on to have nightmares about the artist formerly known as Prince.

  • A shame there were only two series of Big Train. Nearly as big a tragedy as there only being one series of The Peter Serafinowicz Show.

  • Ya See! THAT'S funny! If this was a SNL sketch it would be at least 3 times the length, serving up umpteen variations of the same gag. The Brits know how to make a comedic point and move on. The Americans get an idea for a sketch, and milk it and milk it and milk it and milk it and milk it and milk it. (There...that should bring us up to commercial).

    If you don't beleive me, spend a while watching SNL, Mad TV (shudder!!) and you'll see what I mean.

    Luckily, the US have Ron White.

  • As dumb as anything I've seen.

  • @TimmyP1955 thats maybe because you don't have a sense of humor or you are just ignorant!

  • @EugenKaalikas  I enjoy much British humor - there's none in this video.

  • @TimmyP1955 lol. You just don't get it, clearly.

  • @TimmyP1955 yes there is. it's 'dry' humor. that's at least more british than american. and that's exactly what monty python is, and such. dry humor. you're just wrong.

  • @TimmyP1955 AND. this video has a british voice over, and is probably british made. another, small piece of evidence, that this is british humor. you're just wrong.

  • so bizaare! such a great series!

  • that is just so flipping weird xD

  • The art direction is brilliant.

  • An unsuspecting herd of Jockey being stalked by the artist formerly known as Prince; that's quite funny. It sort of reminds me of the skits Dave Allen used to do.

  • feats greedily

  • this is some funny shit

  • Haha love this! xxx

  • definitely alot of monty python influence in big train.

  • Comment removed

  • best actors

  • DOGS BOLLOX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Funny as hell!

  • Can't we just call you Prince for short?

  • i LOVE this! :D

  • @Rlentle2s irish comedy

  • @isitluck15

    Big Train is a surreal British television comedy sketch show created by Arthur Mathews and Graham Linehan

  • @chulk607 Arthur Matthews and Graham Linehan..... exactly!!

    IRISH COMEDY.

  • @isitluck15

    Haha, well, when you put it like that... :P

  • Brilliant! :D

  • This is even more hilarious because Prince is a strict vegetarian! LOL

  • @kalimaganeshshivan Jockeys are made out of Tofu actually! :)

  • @Eyeball1975 LOL

  • This is in reference to Prince's song Little Red Corvette. The verse, "I felt a little ill when I saw all the pictures of the jockeys that were there before me". Fucking hilarious!

  • LMAO!

  • lmao

  • yes

  • yes , the Voice Over is , The Genius Known as Chris Morris

  • of brass eye fame

  • fukkin hilarious, big train has to be one of our best sketch shows ever

  • HAHA

  • waarom krijg ik nu godverre domme eerst een advertentie van 20 seconden

  • i don't really get this living in Australia and not understanding british humor but it's funny

  • LoL

  • Prince should go after the jockeys clothes!!take the jockeys silks away (for his elaborate costume) then leave him facing explusion from his herd (as they no longer recognise him,) to freeze to death wandering the tundra.

    dont u think?

  • @weaselwomp

    The Prince is primarily an instinctual creature. You're thinking of a more highly functioning and strategic predator like the Common Garfunkel.

  • I love British humor! :D

  • Please call it British Humour :)

  • its funny....nothing else to "get"

  • hilarious its so nuts and whats funnier are the comments !! ha ha lol

  • words cant describe how funny i think that is. so ridiculous its unbelievable. and the writers of this are irish by the way

  • Wronggg. Guess who's Narrating it.

  • Chris Morris, perhaps?

  • to be fair its a plethora of writers and contributors including, tate, pegg and mitchell, and its a little sad you have to differentiate between countries 'sense of humour'

  • wow prince is creepy...

  • i dont get it...that must be the famous english sense of humour...xD...

  • and that must be the famous german lack of it haha only kidding its mildly surreal

  • Dont worry mate, I find it odd and Im British (Welsh)

  • its sort of weird...but i like it!...someway...

  • I can't believe how much "family Guy" copied this with the ambulance and fire engine. this is far better though.

  • chris morris voice-over?

  • You might be right there. Seen this a million times and never clicked.

  • Lol Quality

  • lol this is so random

  • I'm scared of him myself. Lol
