4:10 to 4:20 I've seen before... does anybody use this particular clip? i.e. Adult swim or something?

[NunoSpr255]

The guys who create big train are simply GENIOUS

[Revoluus]

lol

[Feofan74]

thank you

[fletchernibiru]

youve gone from den davies to den dildo!

[Feofan74]

What did he say on 1:14?

[rebelbiscuit]

@Feofan74 Don't fucking tell me what i can fucking do with my own fucking camera!

[Duncansbaby]

i think the reason there wasn't a third series of Big Train was because they spent the entire budget on Simon Peggs make-up for this scene. Seriously, most of the sketches are filmed either in someone's house, someone's office or quickly in the street.

[che598]

Have been watching 'The World at War' on TV and it reminded me of this sketch! (2min 57sec).

Also, love the line "You've gone from Den Davis to Den Dildo".

Kevin Eldon is so under-rated.

[DanTheWarder]

NOT THE FACE!!

[DanTheWarder]

Utterly brilliant, come of the best british comedy has to offer at the top of their game. From him saying Roland d'ing Rat to Greg (peggs) wistful look at the picture.

[Mangina9000]

Wow, I had no idea who Ken Morse was. Thanks Big Train!

[DanthemanCTU24]

'Fuckadoodledoo!'

So this is where it came from!

[traviscobra]

"im den davies"

[marknpeyton]

Simon Pegg's Greg Dyke is brilliant,

"Ladies leave us"

[jkellybrew]

you've gone from being den davies to den dildo...ladies leave us NOW...and lest we forget Roland F***** Rat!

[djeclarke]

"Those cunts haven't made a documentary since the world at war!!"

[kendildo]

this is my favorite big train sketch....don't know why really, jus the one that stuck in the memory from series 2(the best series...lol) the other one that sticks is the 'production secretary' one.....TIM BISHOP!!!

[Neurotica70]

I'm an American - so can someone explain to me the backround story so that this pod makes sense to me.

[vastariner]

Nearly every single UK television programme that uses a rostrum camera (the thing that pans in from a wide shot of a photo to a close-up) credits the work to Ken Morse. He's almost got a cult following as a result. Apparently he was popular because he (a) was quick, (b) was cheap and (c) had a parrot.

[FanoMessan]

In you're own time you stupid bitch.

[antiochus66]

ken morse is a useless fucker

so is chris king and that fucking twat malcom paris in scotland hes the biggest twat of the lot..

[Fagottron]

"Zoom in, c*nt!" I love it.

[Mulligan888]

[khalithistle]

kevin eldon is so underrated

[DMEB]

roland fucking ratt!!!!

[PlasticSpastic93]

!!FUCK-A-DOODLE-DOO

Thats on Shaun of the Dead!

[DuncanDisorderly123]

It's been around longer than that

[sturdle]

all this is brilliant..

[AidanMclaren]

Zoom in...cunt!

[SantaSunday]

Fuck-a-doodle-do....!!

[rebelbiscuit]

"its not the 60's anymore!"

[RikMcalen]

"You gone for being Dan Davis to Dan Dildo!.." just PERFECT!! ah ah ah ah a h

[pmeadows34]

I can't believe this. I thought I was the only one who ever noticed the name of Ken Morse constantly appearing on BBC documentary programme as 'Rostrum Camera Ken Morse'. Wonderful

[thegirl44]

Morse's work was even expedited here to Canada for the CBC. I guess that the monarchy couldn't rationalize buying our tiny little dominion our own rostrum camera.

[zebra55]

I love the fact Greg Dyke when talking to his own security says: "This is Greg Dyke, Head of the BBC" excellent.

[DanTheWarder]

Yes nice spot, I thought it was funny that he mentions his full name and title hen he picks up the phone. Something you can imagine he does everytime he uses the phone, even to his wife.

[mangosta007]

Isn't it time that he became 'Sir The Actor Kevin Eldon'? Or at least 'The Actor Kevin Eldon CBE'.

[Brettski101]

One of my favs ever!, Greg Dyke on ITV:- 'your living in the past Den, those C***s have made a documentary since the world at war'

A real laugh out loud moment.

Love it - wish they made some more

[codenamelizzie]

And what's on the TV now? Retarded catchphrase shows like Little Britain and The Catherine Tate Show.

Big Train is absolute gold.

Another series, I say.

[linsaybcool]

here, here...well bloody said.

[iriejoe]

You can say that again

[Picnic10]

From the presentation to the music to the acting to thee script, this is a perfect sketch. Big Train was such a clever comedy- in the 60s photographers and film makers did take things too seriously. I like the way Greg Dyke is portrayed as a woman chaser- Greg was the head of the BBC and this was broadcast whilst he was in charge!

[lcozzarelli]

The music was from Psycho! Still scares me...was that Simon Pegg as the bebearded BBC head?

[Fuchal]

And lest we forget, Rolin fucking Rat!

[skibalove]

youve gone from being den davis to den dildo!

[nervouspete]

How amusing... and yet... how strangely soul destroying. Good ol' Big Train - will Kevin Eldon ever get a happy ending?
