  • Actually, this Texan laughed...and still does, every time she watches it.

    

  • Only brits would be laughing at 0:25

  • @pingu53 i chuckled

  • Hysterically funny! I watch it over and over and laugh equally hard each time

  • They must have wetted themslves making it.

  • Comment removed

  • just incase noone knew, the guy is scotty from the new star trek franchise; Simon Pegg

  • Not sure if someone has posted this alreay but... Black Adder FTW!

  • this isnt funny

  • @TheWomblemaster Wow. I and thousands of others have laughed at this clip, but it took one bratty comment to make my mind open and realise that - alas! - this clip isn't funny after all! my mistake.

  • @WhiteDollarBills am glad you have realised the errors of your ways! take time to repent in sackcloth and ashes....its very beneficial.

  • @TheWomblemaster Why? Are you a train driver? Don't fret, you're job's safe, they're just joking.

  • P.S. Monty Python. It moved the world on.

  • Our (British) humour's the best. It's witty and sarcastic.

  • Wow, evidently the classic British comedy is new to you all....The programmes that you have mentioned are infact decades old now....You must be kicking yourselves that you have been missing out for so long...

  • only fools and horses

  • dawn french and jennifer saunders sketches!!! :') youtube!

  • remember watchiing this when i was at school.  still amusing

  • Ab Fab? Green Wing? French and Saunders?

  • Yes too much false laughter

  • they should tone down the canned laughter a little

    i love this though especially how she has got a serious

    expression whilst asking dumb questions

  • @truthfilter There is no canned laughter

  • this is actually retarded.

  • Is this why the series was named Big Train??

  • British humor really is the best. Shows like the Office, Blackadder, Only Fools and Horses etc would only be shown and understood in Britain. Even subtle humor in shows like Sherlock is brilliant.

  • PPS the full sketch with ending IS on You Tube elsewhere - Hurrah!

  • PS the other "Big Train" sketch show clips on You Tube are worth searching out - pity there aren't more but you can get the 2 series DVDs from the BBC

  • Yes indeed - HS2 and all that stupid destructive big-dick nonsense. Pity the clip is chopped off before the very funny ending which puts the Minister's inability to grasp spatial concepts onto a new level. Pedantic I know, but the humour is Irish not British - writer Arthur Matthews and director Graham Linehan (of Father Ted fame) are from the Emerald Isle. Not sure about the Anglo-Saxons but we British Celts find it VERY funny.

  • HS2! :)

  • Little Britain is the best though ;)

  • This is not the best of British humour, please have a look at Peep Show, Miranda, fawlty towers, the office (UK), vicar of dibley, and many more.

  • As soon as I spotted Simon Pegg in the first few seconds I thought "I'm probably going to like this."

  • Didnt Zoolander do a similiar joke..? So sick of people saying British humour is some kind of super funny compared to the us.

  • @otherjr It's a lot funnier than the american humour, it's darker, more self-depracting (because we can actually laugh at ourselves) and far more reliant upon actual intelligence than american humour.

  • @harmfulsweetz 30 rock, arrested development, curb your enthusiam, six feet under. Then you got the not so intelligent but still funny sitcoms, like HIMYM or Frasier. British humour tends to be slightly more off the wall (not so much recently though), but thats only because you can make a show much cheaper in the UK, which therefore doesnt need to sell as much. Quality wise though, theres generally not much difference between us...

  • Simon pegg FTW

  • XD THE FUNNIEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!!!!-3 British humor

    -BTW im American!

  • @paulbefc man i have to thank you. that night, i went to macdonalds (well, i got a taxi to the drive through) and while i was out my house fell down. thank you so much pal! i lost my mother and my father and my girlfriend but i survived! thank the sweet lord

  • @louiecostello and i owe it all to you and big macs

  • lol the guy in this reminds me of alan sugar

  • Its the best in the worlds,thats so funny!!

  • simon pegg is a genious

  • im british , and this was funny as fuking hell!!!

  • That's like my sister, poor thing can't grasp simple maths to save her life.

  • @paulbefc ah why did you go and say that!? now i want a big mac. damn you. damn you to hell!!! also, i think rich hall said recently that americans always say "brittish humour is so dry" and that they only say that because they dont actually know what humour is haha.

  • @TheAngryCockroach I never spelt anything wrong in that post.Even though I am dyslexic.You think Ireland is part of Britain.And seven fools seem to believe you.Just shows you how many idiots are out there.You no doubt want to bang Dawn French to,you sound like a bit of a chubby chaser to me.

  • @legandrydirk You would be correct to say the word 'bye' was correctly spelt, if you hadn't been trying to use the word 'by'. Just as in this reply 'to' is correctly spelt however you presumably meant 'too'

  • Comment removed

  • Big Train, awesome show! Haven't seen it for years.

  • what show is this from???

  • @Sboy200 Big Train.

  • Yes Minister. Case closed.

  • Blackadder, Vicar Of Dibley, Mitchel And Webb, Little Britain, QI, Monty Python! ;)

  • Black Adder, Father Ted, Vicar of dibley, mitchel and webb

    YOUTUBE THEM NOW!!!!

  • @lsynno Father Ted was Irish not British.7 idiots know nothing about comedy,bye the looks off things.

  • @legandrydirk I believe Father Ted was filmed in London for a British TV company, and received it's biggest success in mainland Britain rather than in Ireland itself. Whilst it was set in Ireland this makes it no more an Irish television program as the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe can be claimed to be a Narnian production.

  • @Dwigglemoo You believe wrong then,it was not filmed there.And you knew what I meant.Your just being a obtuse as you are wrong.And Black Adder is and Father Ted,is the only decent things on your list in my book

  • @legandrydirk Both the DVD box set for the series and the Wiki page back up my belief. The series was filmed in London, all the parochial house shots and most of the indoor location shots there too, with the exterior shots filmed in Ireland.

  • @Dwigglemoo Father Ted was not written bye the English.It was written bye the Irish.Regardless if what your saying is true.If what you are saying is true

  • @Dwigglemoo er well thats completely wrong. it was written by irish writers, acted by irish comedians, set in ireland, interacts with irish society/politics/religion, characterises provincial irish life. so if that doesnt make it wholeheartedly irish i really dont know what does... and father ted is still shown on irish tv like, every bloody day. you're an idiot basically... no other way of putting it haha

  • @louiecostello the show was a British show, commissioned in Britain, filmed in Britain and made for a British broadcast channel 4, it's success in Ireland pales to it's success here, partly this is because the novelty for the British was that it had the Irish in it, everyone seems to like a good accent in a comedian and mildly self-depreciating ethnic jokes. The setting of the show does not demonstrate it's origin; would you argue startrek voyager was a delta quadrant show, or an american show?

  • @Dwigglemoo but father ted was written and acted by irish people!!! so Hat trick or whatever paid for it and it was filmed in a studio in london, does that really matter?

    if you found out that it was actually filmed mainly in france would it suddenly become a french program?

    its success only pales in ireland compared to england because england has far more people. but comparatively speaking, it was and still is far more successful in ireland. its irish through and through. anyone with any

  • @louiecostello wikipedia lists FT as an Irish/British comedy programme, which is pretty spot on really, people from the UK and the RoI were involved in making an awesome TV series. Yay!

  • @cduck88 stop trying to ruin our argument man!

  • @lsynno Father Ted is Irish comedy

  • also its 'mitchell', and blackadder is one word lol

  • @lsynno not the vicar of dib though but the rest and farther ted is not a brit com

  • @RAMSEY1987 Father ted is very much a British Sitcom. It was made for Channel 4.

  • @lsynno Green wing, Black Books, BOTTOM : )

  • @lsynno I agree with Blackadder, Father Ted and Peep Show. Also take a look at 15 Storeys High, The Office (British obviously) , Extras, League of Gentlemen, Spaced, Phoenix Nights, Fawlty Towers and no doubt many more that I've missed out!

  • @lsynno The Office and Extras are better than all of those combined.

  • @Cryer24597 indeed the office is the british comedy ever

  • Don't forget Black Books, the best British comedy from the last 20 years

  • @lsynno Father Ted is Irish but yea I agree - British and Irish humour is probably the best in the world

  • @lsynno Fr Ted?!?!?! That's Irish, but it's still amazing!!!

  • @annagilda1

    Father Ted is British. Made by the BBC

  • @sgh1963 It was produced by Hat Trick and was shown on Channel 4,not the BBC

  • is this an example of British humour or just general humour with English actors? wouldn't Americans get and perform this type of comedy or do they not?

  • @thestalkinghead its not british humour its just HUMOUR! in any case, british humour is usually classed as the more er self effacing, pessimistic style of humour. which i suppose americans dont get because they couldn't possibly say a bad word about jesus and the government and the cahnstitution and the lan' of our fathers

  • @louiecostello father ted's humour was self effacing and pessimistic, strangely enough you're arguing that isnt British...you're an idiot basically...no other way of putting it haha

  • Americans will never fully understand good olde British humour :D i went there a month ago (america) and yeah , very serious people.

  • this is not funny and im british, watch black adder for the love of all that is right

  • Got to love Simon Pegg

  • Brittles love their child abusers and pedophiles. They adore them. Regard them as heroes. Look no further than G.G. for evidence. A horrible, wretched, sad group of people if ever there were one. Despicable.

  • Comment removed

  • @MyBelch what

  • @MyBelch the little girl jon benet may have an argument or two against that, given that america provides the largest database of peados, most of whom run your country

    a horrible fat, lazy, braindead group of people thinking well above their station, thinking they are intelligent while pushing unsubstantiated claims of creationism on their schoolkids, well done yank, have another burger, fatty

  • @utrapzab WTF makes you think I'm American, you inbred loser? What is it with fragile Brittle psyche that makes them lash out like spastic schoolchildren frothing at the mouth at the US whenever anybody insults them? Goddamn bunch of fucking insecure retards if ever there were any. There are Billions of people on this planet who wholly understand what a bunch of idiot dirtbags Brittles are. Get over your American obsession you thin-skinned, pig-ignorant moron.

  • @MyBelch calm down lady boy, and i think that sums up your semi chink come paki existence, i think the real underlying probelm here is that you are sitting there making nike and adidas shoes and getting paid 4p a day for doing so and it doenst make you feel very good does it, that and of course your mixture of genitalia which seems to be de rigour for people in that part of the world, your just bitter because all you are known for is girls with dicks, that must mean your blokes have pussies lol

  • @utrapzab That's my point. Brittles spit the dummy no matter who criticizes . Yet arrogant, pig-ignorant snaggle-tooted assholes feel obliged to criticize every other country. Time for Brittles to own up and admit their sorry little crap island doesn't amount to shit. A bunch of angry little trolls mad that their government finds Nigerians, Poles and Europeans more productive than the incessantly whining idiot native swine. You deserve what you get. Fuck off and die whining Brittle twunts.

  • @MyBelch whos spitting the dummy out? this is great fun, ive never spoken to a ladyboy before, dont worry i wouldnt shag you freak. besides your good grasp of the ENGLISH language (and thats actually who you hate, the english - you are just too ignorant to be able to distinguish them from other britons) probably means that you are in fact in thialand for the only real industry you have, child sex trafficking, so pervert, how was it for you

    now fuck off and make some fake t shirts

  • @utrapzab Brittles love their sexual predators. Until in happens in the UK. Then they're ready to set them free in a few week -- to offend again. Really, really stupid motherfuckers. And they whine on endlessly about how much better they are than capital-punishment countries. Insipid, pig ignorant fucking morons.

  • @MyBelch no they all head off to thialand where they arent punished at all.

    and there are none more stupid than those who believe capital punishment is a positive thing.

    how are you getting on making my adidas shoes? are you going to invest the ten pence youll make?

  • nyahahahahah. [i really love the accent.]

  • Scale... ahhahahahahah I love scale it's hilarious

  • isn't that the woman from the strange direct line adverts?

  • americans dont normally get british humour, from my experience. some do though.

  • @cescanottidge Gotta admit, British humor is better (funnier) than American. We Americans make comedy movies full of retards, who make weird voices and such, while on the other hand Brits make comedies with normal-looking fellas, and somehow make it "realistic", and yet funny.

  • @ezkiller93 tru that brits rule

  • Yeah this is an example of shit British humour. Proves all British humour is shit? No.

    Just like the fact that 90% of SNL sketches are total shite and "Two and Half Men" is one of America's most successful and popular shows doesn't prove that American comedy is shit.

    Watch some Alan Partridge or some Peep Show and I'll watch some Curb Your Enthusiasm or some Arrested Development. Then we can all stop crying.

  • British Humour > American Humour.

    also, please note the 'u'.

  • British Humor

    =

    Immature

    =

    Not Funny

  • @C0mmentar LOL if you think that, you have NO idea what british humour is. (1 video does not mean you know it all) British humour is known for being dry, witty and dark - complete opposite to immature. If you want to point fingers at a country for having childish humour, i'd point at America for their slapstick and laughing cans.

  • when grama saw this she laughed so hard her false teeth fell into a beer mug

  • they should have blonde instead of brunette...more hilarious!

  • @virgoptrex no because then thats more obvious!

  • For all the people who blew up and started cursing out MyBelch, you all got trolled...rrrreeeallll bad X)

    Not that I agree with IBurp or anything

  • Brits think child abuse is humor ...the ev idence is here

    watch?v=-KQ2bOtaY3E

  • awesome humour, best in d world

  • Brilliant you just gotta laugh!

  • You know it's not funny when the producers find it necessary to insert that pervasive and insipid "canned" laughter. Brilliant Brittle humor, indeed. [not]

  • @MyBelch it's completely true that some British people are lowlifes, but 95% of all British people are living the best life they possibly can, and have completely good intentions in everything they do. There's a massive sense of community in Britain; you can tell when you go abroad because British people who come from completely different backgrounds just start chatting like neighbours. Tell me another nation that does that. And I'm 15 as well BOOM

  • @musicmakesmylife1 You should come to Thailand and witness the Boxing Brittles. These geezers fight each other regularly. All boozed up lardassed baldies from Souf'ampton bristle at their despised enemies from Portsmouf, slinging their horrible incomprehensible insults before resorting to fisticuffs. Chavs, yobs, taffs, jocks, they all hate each other. Put down the "softly-gently" BBC, you wanker. Brittles are hateful, shallow creatures.

  • @MyBelch I'm pretty sure 'Brittles' isn't a word... it's BritONS. And it's completely untrue that all people from different backgrounds (the words you used being: chavs, yobs, taffs, jocks) hate each other. Of course there's a little hatred in every culture, but the vast majority of British people are open to others. Can you tell who's being more civilized in this argument? Not really helping prove your point, am I?

  • @musicmakesmylife1 Brittles -- thin-skinned, oversensitive, overemotional, whining, wheezing blubber bags. Yes, Brittles is quite apt.

  • @MyBelch

    Whining? Aren't you the one whining? Also how is the cock fest? Bwahahahhahahhahaha.

  • @MyBelch oversensitive and overemotional? whining? blubber bags? really? get your facts right mate, the british MOTTO is 'keep calm & carry on.' which is what we do. and we're famous for it. you can't call all Brits 'hateful, shallow creatures' and not expect a rant from all British people on youtube.

  • @musicmakesmylife1 "keep calm and carry on?" Puh~leeze. Brittles are the first ones to lose their heads and go spastic -- especially when somebody suggests they're slightly stupid. They really do have the thinnest of skins. More than happy to wheeze and whine and cry and pout about the world, but completely spit the dummy when someone makes a criticism of them. Sanctimonious assholes if ever there were any.

  • @MyBelch what an apt name

  • @MyBelch LMAO Whining and crying about the Limeys seems to be something you do a LOT of. No doubt you had your ass kicked by a Brit once, and your miserable little life is now one long anglophobic hissyfit.

  • @MyBelch better that than a fat retarded fundamentalist creationist only stimulated by glossy pictures and television. even your name suggests that your stomach is always at the forefront of your thoughts.

    A good example of the mindset of yanks vs brits - food programmes.

    UK - Jamie Oliver - promotes healthy eating and cook it yourself.

    USA - Man vs Food - some fat prick wobbling from eatery to eatery eating 8lb burgers and burritos the size of babies

    says it all, fat fucks

  • @utrapzab well done :) this did make me laugh. You should run for prime minister :) i'd vote for you :D 

  • @utrapzab Congratulations, youre prejudiced!

  • @otherjr everyone is prejudiced, it takes an adult ot admit it though, still.....you know im right

  • @utrapzab Everyone has the ability to form preconceptions which guide you through life. This is different from acting upon them and making ridiculous blanket statements based on hasty generalisations.

  • @otherjr nothing hasty about it, look at the statememnt and tell me inm wrong. fattest country in the world is america, they eat more than any other country, nothing but fact there im afraid. look at my examples - hardly a straw man either, the two shows i mentioned are popular on their respective side of the atlantic - so where is the ridiculous blanket statement - i wait with abated breath

  • @utrapzab Just look up hasty generalisation on wikipedia.

  • @otherjr i dont need to, perhaps your grasp of the english language is so poor that you DO need to do stuff like that but all that does is highlight the poor education system in the US, another string to your bow eh

  • @utrapzab Im English... Also, a 'hasty generalisation' (didnt notice the English spelling, huh?) is a logical fallacy, so its not specifically related to a 'grasp of english language' but rather a study of statistics. If you had read the three short paragraphs on wikipedia, you may have noticed how they are often the basis of stereotype and prejudice. I dont care about grammar and spelling on youtube, but before you accuse me of faulty english, you might wish to compare our comments.

  • @MyBelch your mum\dad i dont know which coz u thai men dress up as women is a hateful shallow creatchere u dont see me complaining mybelch your a sick man and i think u need help you obsessed jealous fucked up little chink

  • @MyBelch your mum\dad i dont know which coz u thai men dress up as women is a hateful shallow creatchere u dont see me complaining mybelch your a sick man and i think u need help you obsessed jealous fucked up little chink

  • @MyBelch

    Also it is spelt Southampton.

  • @MyBelch ...really, Also, where I come from, I don't think that 95% of Brits live the best life...really learn your facts next time.

  • @zZH3ndr1x You see those quotation marks around that phrase? It means someone else said it, not me -- you abject retard.

  • @MyBelch Oh sorry :) but why the hate of British really, I really want a good honest reason.

  • @MyBelch I think those reading your vitriolic comments are waiting for an explanation. You are virtually alone in your views, as all the other comments show. Living in Britain, I know fully well that your sweeping insults are quite unjustified, so I wonder what personal experiences have so turned you against it? I find it ironic that you moralise and denigrate over 60 million people, grasping at the high ground, while making such a show of yourself with disgusting language. I await your reply.

  • Explanation why the sketch is so funny:

    She was American

  • Britons are disgusting, bald-headed, loud-mouthed, tattooed, sweating swine. Accordingly, they have all the grace and manners of a fucking drunken, angry warthog.

  • @MyBelch You're just pissed off cos your girlfriend fucks every british tourist that comes to your dirty part of the world.

  • @MyBelch squat. squat. squat. squat. ;)

  • @MyBelch By saying we Brits have 'all the grace and manners of a fucking drunken, angry warthog', you're proving that you have those EXACT same traits. How ironic, huh? Stop trying to pick fights and enjoy the video.

  • @MyBelch ooh, you're hard.

  • Britain is a sad, pathetic portrait of what t used to be. I enjoyed Britain upon my first visit. Now it' a horrible scum-sucking pit. Miserable

  • @MyBelch If that's the way you feel, then you clearly haven't experienced ALL of britain.

  • See what has happened to our Great Country watch THE PARTY OF SLEAZE by TOKYO ROSE

  • Im english and think this is abit of a rip off not original as its copied the the joke from zoolander when derek zoolander talks about building a centre for kid who dnt read good and its a proto type which he thinks is the real size and said ants couldnt fit into it that it would have to be at least 3 times bigger then he smashes it. They just developed the sketch more but cant help thinking its copied. Anyone else????????????

  • @1gadena Correct me if I'm wrong, but Big Train was filmed BEFORE Zoolander? Zoolander was 2001 and I think I remember this skit being a year or so before.

  • @tipsycat27 No this was after zoolander, thats why i said it ;) lol

  • littel? lmao -- get an education you sad jerk-off.

  • Britains own Sarah Palin. To be fair she is still more intelligent than Palin.

  • I'm not whining at all, merely making an observation. I think it's hilarious how Brittles continuously lecture others about being civilized and "proper" this and "proper" that while they slaughter innocent civilians in Libya and burn down their own neighborhoods. You abject retards have completely lost the plot. You deserve everything that's happening to you -- and more.

  • @MyBelch shut the fuck up u retarded littel fucker . you are an inbred littel cock sucker who should die and stop insulting other countries

  • @MyBelch erm what about working class Englishmen ? say the miners for instance who got bum fucked by their own government and no they weren't proper this and proper that they was hard as nails built like shit brick houses ENGLISHMEN just like the English early settlers of America or Australia new Zealand south Africa huh come on buddy tell me their proper posh go on you cunt tell me , my grandfather was a miner he's knocked yanks out before when he was in the navy on shore leave in Boston ....

  • @MyBelch yes, your'e right, we British whine about everything from the weather to politics. But, can I say, if anyone is whining right now it's you!

  • Brittles once ruled the waves, now they waive the rules. It's a nation full of rejects and losers, desperately clinging to their history as everyone laughs at their pathetic nostalgic pride. Can anyone say "washed up?" Buncha soap-dodging has beens getting mighty surly over everyone's agreement that Britain is a miserable little shitpit full of angry, frustrated little horrible creatures. I recommend the world leave it to fester and rot and devour itself in a putrid pile of angst, bile and hate.
