Anyone clocked the Big train comedy series with the "artist formerly known as Prince" sketches, they are reasonably comical. I had never watched it before, but my brother let me borrow his dvd. Its pretty funny shit, although i realise its old hat now and there have probably been prior threads on this, but thought it was worth a mention.

actually here is one of them

always loved BIG TRAIN !

surreal stuff at times ... the devil and jesus as a teacher and headmaster, the jockeys bugging the fire brigade, the office staff trying to get their pay off the boss etc...

Big Train is a stupid title for a stupid, non-funny British show.

not a big fan of the show then ?

never mind.

some of us 'British' have a strange idea of what's funny

Loved Prince as a jockey hunter and the gun fight between Chakka Khan and the Bee Gee's. Awesome stuff.

If I become a jockey, will Prince eat me?

and thats the legendary Chris Morris doing a special guest narration in that clip! He also wrote and directed a few sketches from big train and this jocky sketch is one.

To those who don't know, Morris is widely considered an all time british comedy king by his peers and critics and in my opinion, the greatest we ever had. 'Brass eye' and 'Jam' will never be topped.

and to add, Big Train is classic british comedy. From a legendary team.
