  • Bit sketchy if you're a dog walker.

  • All sides have sorted everything out, so true!!!!

  • WHY DON'T THEY VALUE A DOGS LIFE BRITAIN YOU'RE SICK

  • Quality :)

  • First time ive had to force myself to stop laughing so i didnt actually die

  • I can remember actually falling out of my chair with laughter when I saw this on TV back in 1994.

    It's pure genius.

  • @ialwtttiywtrar

    me too. couldn't stop laughing for hours. 'highly directional blast launches the dog to 1000 feet' was the line that got me. and the graphic saying 1000 feet and pointing upwards at the dog that just shot up off the screen. priceless stuff. lol

  • Amazing!

  • Eugene fraxby's reporting voice and style is spot on, straight out of bbc news

  • I'm Irish (the Republic) and an animal rights activist. I couldn't stop laughing the first time I saw this sketch on DVD.

  • I somehow got on here looking for documentaries on bomb disposal dogs for an essay I'm writing...this should perk it up for my lecturer to read!!!

  • being old they would of died anyway LOL....

  • lol...trust the IRA to think of this...so funny.

  • Quality reconstruction noooooooo boom

  • genius

  • Which episode is this from?

  • The things is, this is actually going to happen one day.

  • "Dead from guns" just became my favourite phrase ever.

  • shot to ribbons in its prime

  • Murdoch news i thought "this is the news".

  • lol i watched this in school yesterday

  • @TheNewRevolutionClan wow. cool school

  • The policeman I saw went "NOOOOOO click boom" lol

  • this soo good lol

  • Coogans recreation is amazing

  • "Being old, they would of died soon anyway" xD xD

  • I remember this when it first came out. I literally could not stop laughing for HOURS. That dog being launched to 1000 feet, and the little graphic, saying 1000 feet with an arrow pointing up. LOLOLOL. Superb stuff.

  • just fabulous

  • Comment removed

  • i love the reconstruction bit "AHHH!" lolololol

  • best troll of all time?

  • 10 bombdog watched this video

  • I Mean 2:02

  • 1:34 Is Funny

  • Totally deconstructs the news reporting conventions of the 90s.

  • @MrAngry61 and now!

  • This footage is all incisive satire from some years ago.

    -Problem is, it's word for word & scene for scene, identical to the torrents of daily news ca. 2010AD.

    The unremitting, hideous stupidity of Government & security services doing 'Groundhog Day' Over & over again, convinced that the public will never notice.

    Does anyone else notice ?

  • Very apt for today's world lol :)

  • @yeahthisismyusername maybe you've failed to realise that it's always been like this (supposedly), the guthywoodry's comment about the Government/security services doing Groundhog Day over and over again is so true. Well done for getting sucked in. Next decade there'll be another mythical threat to watch out for, which naturally for security purposes, we'll need more liberties taken away. Then again, maybe not, "terrorism" is the perfect formula.

  • Haha. At 3:19, the guy that can't "contain his anger" lashes out on Chris Morris's big old Merc.

  • thats ridicously good

    

  • What fucking al-Qaeda? The duped idiots who think they're guarding against fantasy 'terrorism' are far more dangerous to the public and any freedoms you think you've got left.

  • This is just the sort of thing which al-Qaeda would do in London.

  • @adrianwainer I think they'll hit every city @ once :( Please use your intuition if you don't feel safe then move and tell others x

  • How many more of Armando Iannucci's & Chris Morris's predictions will come true?

    I'm off to have some cake and update @dcbcherrygate.

  • Comment removed

  • the daily mail has this as a story today lol

  • Reality overtakes satire.

    The horra.

    The horra.

  • Another accurate prediction from The Day Today.

  • Comment removed

  • this is amazing :)

    i love dogs but this is funny xD

  • "and since we conducted that interview, all sides have had a meeting and sorted everything out."

  • "It was over in seconds, a dog and three people dead from guns" :-D

  • Is that Mr. Renim from the IT Crowd?

  • @PAPSOKINGMAN - it is indeed. Denholm Renholm is (or was) played fantastically by Chris Morris, who is in one word, brilliant.

  • @PAPSOKINGMAN yes!

  • Haha, they built a monument to "Spider" the dog by 6pm (not to the three human casualties)

  • My goodness! The reporter's voice (Eugene Fraxby) is exactly like one of the reporters on the real news - identical. 

  • that was as much as I saw

  • Genius, just sheer brilliant ingenuity!

  • Terrierism.

  • is this real? lol

  • @Pedwily

    You don't deserve to watch this.

  • 'journalist david mellor added little of intrest...' haha

  • Because fact into doubt, wont go.

  • dead from guns

  • @ccfcobro Being old, they would have died soon anyway.

  • one policeman in particular that I saw went "NOOOO, *click* MOOOOVE!! Steve Coogan is the best

  • the eyewitness is funny

  • Coogan is hilarious

  • "This report from Eugene Fraxby has got the story with him reports"

  • BOMB. DOG. CHAOS.

  • "The inside of the bombdog is obviously destroyed, but the outside stays the same shape. However, if the underside is not covered, a highly directional blast launches the animal vertically to a height of over a thousand feet." HAHAHAHA.

  • love the title graphics, very 80's

  • Just outrageously funny! The best!!!

  • "And since we conducted that interview all sides in the conflict have had a meeting and have sorted everything out" lol yya for northern ireland:D

  • at 0.40 thats not a real copper but its exactly how they behave. ACAB

  • All I could think of when I saw Steve Coogan was

    "move and fire, move and fire, move and fire"

  • "Being old, they would've died soon anyway, but the dog, which contained no explosive at all, was shot to ribbons in its prime" - LOL.

  • Armando Iannucci running at 0:57. You can tell because he's absolutely rubbish at running.

  • @stitchkaboodle999

    And he's chasing the dog too!

  • Comment removed

  • "Being old, they would have died soon anyway"

    Surreal. Magnificent.

  • holy crap steve coogan's slow motion account reminds me of my slightly mental cousin who makes films lol

  • gotta love the Coogan slo-mo @ 2:10.

  • LOL

  • I heard hes doing a show about terrorism, but no idea whats going on with it. Been off TV for like 10 years (I know he was in that IT crowd show but not interested in that) and yet so valuable. Anyone have any info?

  • its a film called four lions. should be out soon

  • the dog ,shot to ribbons in his prime

  • LOL. Hilarious.

  • "Being old they would of died soon anyway" - CLASSIC!

  • At 00:06 - Morris telling the camera to zoom in and does, So simple but brilliant, The kind of things that make the show.

  • The punchline kills it for me

  • haha i love the little demonstration of the resin coating spray, so accurate of the news, ps. I hope people know that "terrorism" today is presented the same way as it was than... think of when the news demonstrate how full body scanners will work at airports.. lol

  • being old they would have died soon anyway. lol

  • you american idiot,i could hit you in the eye from here

  • back in your box knob-chops.

  • "The inside of the bombdog is obviously destroyed". Obviously.

  • Aye I saw that on BBC website a while back, it was in Belfast when I saw him

  • "all sides have had a meeting, and have sorted everything out"

    if only ):

  • Terrier Attacks in Central London. Scary stuff.

  • Being old they would have been dead soon anyway...

  • I thinks thats Morris mate

  • Amen to hat. A subtle and brilliant section.

  • omg i watched this in my english lesson were doing parodys and we got to watch loads this was my fav xD

  • I remember getting to see the Brass Eye report on animals. It was a good day.

    And it was nearly 10 years ago.

  • That's 'parodies' young man! -1

  • Funny as fuck! Can't stop laughing!

  • shit hot!

  • why don,t they have more chris morris on tv ,the man is a fucking genius

  • Powerful Fucking Post.

  • @n1cky1224 im pretty sure he doesnt want to be on TV, he's a very private guy, who isnt much liked in the industry. There's a good book all about him if you seach on amazon ;)

  • @Tonedefdom like all great artists he has issues!

  • @n1cky1224 I think it's something to do with subliminally inserting the message "Michael Grade is a C**T". Michael Grade being, for those who don't know, being teh name of the controller of the TV channel he was working for.

  • @n1cky1224 Because some people are idiots and don't understand satire.

  • No Helium needed in County Cork!

  • my god xDD

  • steve coogans scream at 0.34 is great

  • Football warmongering! That's worthy of Morris himself!

  • steve coogan at 2:03 - awesome!

  • Being old they would have been dead soon anyway...

  • This is an iconic skit isn't it? "Dead from guns..." haha, yeah and that police man telling the dude to clear off was superb, always a pleasure to watch

  • And since we conducted that interview, all sides in the conflict have had a meeting, and have sorted everything out :D

  • cant believe people are falling for this hahah

  • I saw the guy who played Tory Whip Peter Goodright down the street the other day! Haven't seen this clip in years, Coogan is hilarious and the rest of it is superb

  • @melvert33 I think he may be dead now.

  • realy funny wow dog bombs

  • Brilliant

  • Stunning attention to detail - the way in which the policeman physically advises the pedestrian to "clear off" is sublime. I missed it first time round, but once you notice it, you'll be laughing like a tw*t for hours.

  • The whole sketch is CLASSIC

  • LMFAO @ the reporters tone, just like rl, everything's so dramatic <3

  • Hey don'tbtake it out on the classic Mercedes 190 fintail!! (3.18) :-)

  • the witness account is classic

  • this is timeless comedy.

  • Is this for real??? Great hoax

  • Yes it is.

    Stay inside.

  • WE LOVE YOU, MR. KEVIN FRY

  • Yes it is !! This is a real threat. Explosive bengali streetcats have also been apprehended.the bombs are generally placed in the upper left cavity of the anal flaps. It's revolting I agree.That's muslims for you

  • Bengali streetcats have also been eaten at my local Bengali takeaway ,which is why I always eat the breastmeat ,It's revolting I agree.That's muslims for you !

  • So when did this happen, we don't get much news down here in the South Atlantic. I think it's very cruel, it reminds me of something I read about the US Special Forces making mines out of dolphins. How could they do this dogs though? Bloody Irish.

  • Fucking eejit.

  • Perhaps if you can provide evidence of links to IRA of drug dealing and knee capping joyriders :)

  • How much repressed anger do you have? Your parents must have done very nasty things to you when you were a child, maybe they did it while 'Danny Boy' was on in the background and now you have an irrational and weird hate of Irish people? You need help man...

  • No you tit

  • Could be My dog has terrible wind.

  • My dog has no nose!

  • how does it smell?

  • Bloody awful!

  • it's a classic

  • yer i think they stick the bomb up the dogs arsehole LOL,next it will be dogs that rape you instead of just shagging your leg.

  • totaly the dogs bollox
