Dara O'Briain - York Model Railway Centre

[TheGuitarguy3000]

Just went to York today and found the building and the signs to it but a receptionist in a hotel said it closed down a few months ago :(

[xXYoGleberryXx]

@TheGuitarguy3000 it was blown up by a terrorist

@TheGuitarguy3000 it was blown up by a terrorist

[yorksteam]

I did my work experience in there, but it's now gone, moved to Lincolnshire!

[ali0993]

@yorksteam No its still there.

[yorksteam]

@ali0993 erm, no, it's empty and up for let!!!

[ali0993]

@yorksteam oh dear, so where did i go yesterday

[yorksteam]

@ali0993 well, it wasn't there, still empty and up for let last night!!

[yorksteam]

@ali0993 can't post the link from York Press!

[TheGalwayFarmer]

@yorksteam will it still be called york model railway centre!

[catscanflyhigh]

Extremely unfunny.

[dragonkiller58]

@catscanflyhigh Seen your own videos lately? because they are exactly what you just said

[catscanflyhigh]

@dragonkiller58 Cool opinion, got anymore? (yes that was sarcasm sorry for using it i know you it makes you feel sad but i don't care)

[edj66]

York Model Railway centre now going (thankfully) and being replaced with a York Tap real ale pub, about bloody time too. The model railway really hadn't looked after the building, and it will be nice to see it returned to its former use as a place of refreshment!

[YorkshireNerd]

@edj66 personally i think we need a new star bucks in York... we don't have enough

[rastan1977]

Mildly amusing at best.

[JanaKubalova]

@rastan1977 ah sorry darling, it's intelligent people comedy, we know you don't get it

[rastan1977]

@JanaKubalova Rubbish,it just isnt a great sketch by any measure.

[JanaKubalova]

@rastan1977 Again, it's OK, I understand you don't get it :)

[rastan1977]

@JanaKubalova you might need to explain it to me.

[JanaKubalova]

@rastan1977 I don't think that would work dear, no point in wasting time :)

[DuffBasher]

I remember going to YMR, and the guy behind the counter was plainly wearing a bra under his shirt. Well, I say shirt, it was more like a blouse.

[garyleblond]

My son used to work at YMR. The chap Dara is talking about (the owner/manager), really IS like that!

[museobsessed17]

D: I live in York and when i was a kid, going to the model railway museum was the best thing ever... Just a shame that now, ten years later, its completely different to me... xD

[dljc1979]

this is even funnier now that the miks have started up a new terror campaign against britain, fucking miks..

[aifrench14]

I have been to York Model Railway Centre and the main inaccuarcy in what Dara is saying is that it's not good it's s**t!! And i'm a railway fan!

[lisaryan]

They'll be out of Northern Ireland by the end of the week! :') Its the way he says it, just too too funny. Excellent clip

[mmooooffccoowwss]

Ah joke about a place i live! This is so cool!

[MrsJonas4eva123]

llooll love it, i am from york and have bin to the railway museum sooooo many times ! well funny !

[lrickett2k8]

"and fly tiny airoplanes into the exhibits lol

[beckilewis]

'i expressed this to your man relatively forcefully' lmao

[chewdontswallow]

hahahaha brilliant !!

[canyonerodriver]

their not my boys.lmao

[johngill]

I come back to this time and time again - a great example of what good comedy is. Just the way he says "even at their most craven . . ", it sets the whole thing up, you know where it's going and it's still surprising when it comes. Brilliant.

[QueenAreTheBest]

He is a very funny man i have seen his DVD's but never him live :-(. He has to be my favourite comic, seen Jimmy Carr, Stephen K, Amos, etc. I really want to see him this year

[pojfex]

half the people in the audience yu just know "whats IRA??" haha

[bulked]

Really? I doubt anyone in Britain doesnt know what the IRA is

[Cheeplix]

Hahaha, the accent is perfect and the jokes themselves, pure class!

"Tiiiiny airplanes" :D

[johngill]

the accent is perfect? What were you expecting?

[LickMyLama]

Hahaha i loved that model railway center!!!

[warboss132]

the man who runs it had a sex change lol its well weired because he/she talks well quiet you cant help but laugh =P

[eLIPHAS3333]

Didn't Adrid (Dougle from Father Ted) do a similar joke?

[UltimaPowers]

Sorry to play the pedant, but thats Ardal O'Hanlan you mean, although Adrid has a nice ring to it too.

[eLIPHAS3333]

Sounds the same XD

[colley2k7]

[climber1992]

[aled616]

[sparky4005]

its a joke you dont have to be so anti terrorists, it made me laugh so much hes sp cool

[ChelzCeltic]

love the Irish lol , pitty im Scottish but proud ;)

love the accent lol

[sharondoyle37]

We love the scottish!!! pity I'm Irish but proud.

[fitzythebrave73]

LOL, I'm a Scotsman by birth that's half Irish, I love the people on both sides of the sea.

Gotta say though, Irish people have a unique spirit and character to them; one that can only come through centuries of oppression in my opinion.

[Durhamdynamo1991]

It's true they don't let you keep your bag behind the counter.

[SilverWynterSpirit]

funny cause other places do let you do that

[damselnat]

haha, i've been to cavan recently, he ira are certainly not disbanded, lol

[QueenAreTheBest]

[MyEvanescantRomance]

Tiny aeroplanes!

[Erech01]

[colley2k7]

[Albran]

He's not talking about the railway centre, he's talking about the little building right next to the station itself which does have models.

[Monki02]

wow, I live in york and have visited the model railway centre, its dull :(

[QueenAreTheBest]

Amazing this is my favourite skit by dara this and the mixed marriage lol *****

I can't do that....er...honestly >_>

[lisaryan]

I love him!

[JackSauer]

He's brilliant.

I've been looking for this for ages. Is this the one with the Panda ideas? Have BBC released these on DVD? I'll do anything to see it again!

[FadedRainbow]

Here's a tip-off.

He's releasing the DVD on November 13th, this particular sketch will be a DVD extra. Told to me by the man himself when I met him in Edinburgh.

And panda ideas? I remember koala bears, but not pandas.

[JackSauer]

Koala bears, atht would be right, lol.

Thanks for the info!

[FadedRainbow]

^_^ Thought so.

And it's no problem.

[panicsws]
