Absolutely another vote for Spaced. Both of you. Wont regret it.
Yes!
Absolutely a vote for Spaced.
Well said!
Yeah spaced is a work of brilliance.
Definitely a good one for after Black Books, it has the same random wackiness that the Linehan stuff does
This came out when office smoking bans started to take place so Big Train spoofed it and made it about wanking. It even represented the non-smoker who didn't want to have people smoking around him. Or in this case, a non-wanker.
I'm still miffed about the "Smoking Ban" I said at the time to people it was the proverbial "Thin end of the wedge" and now we have the society we have now 🤦 A world run by "Karens"
@@jessiechen279 i dont like karens, but i dont want to breathe that shit either
There isn't a smoking ban. No one is banning you from smoking. It's just stopping you from wrecking other people's lungs @@jessiechen279
@@natmanprime4295 That's fine, not a problem, But Buisness's like bars/club's should have been given the option, not a blanket ban.
@@jessiechen279 I'm a musician who does gigs in pubs and clubs. I'm also asthmatic. It used to be that with every gig I'd be laid up for the next day unable to breathe properly. I'm very glad it was a blanket ban.
That’s Kevin Eldon the guy on the back, he shows up in a lot of the uk comedy shows off this era. He had his own sketch show too which is criminally underrated and overlooked
It’s Kevin was really fantastic. Actor Kevin Eldon works a lot with Stewart Lee. And he’s the only person to have more that one character on Gane of Thrones!!
That guy behind Simon Pegg is Kevin Eldon ...in lots of sketch shows, a unique comedy actor.
W@nk is not a method... It's a way of life.
“‘ere ‘ere!” It’s a stimulating simulation! 🤚 ✋
😂
Hey Brian! Remember this line? “He WANKS as high as any man in WOME!!”
As Ivor Biggun says:
"It's cheap and convenient, you can't catch VD, it's available at any time and it's absolutely free..."

Big Train was amazing. Never understood why it wasn’t far bigger at the time.
big train is an old underrated show. you must watch them all, its hilarious
another sketch show that went under the radar was 'bruiser' starring david mitchell and simon webb. was also written by them and richard ayoade
Lol you didn't notice the manager was neighbour Jim from Friday night dinner
Mark Heap
And the guy behind was Kevin Eldon who King Boomer once mistook for Mark Heap in another reaction.
The guy complaining was also the IT support guy in IT Crowd and also the cleaner in Black Books who likes to whisper "dirty" and I'm pretty sure the woman is the East European girlfriend of Alan, in I'm Alan Partridge!... I've watched this loads of times but only just realised that it could be her!
@@davidholgate123 Yep. Amelia Bullimore.
the women is in the IT crowd when Jen gets hot tits
Big train is one of my all time favourite shows. Don't know why it is forgotten these days. Please, watch more Big train.
Absolutely classic I was in my 20's when it came out so was around for it. Evil hypnotist,cake factory and devil in the office are a few of my favourites
@@danclifford1027 Space Tyrant at home!
@danclifford1027 "you do know I'm an evil hypnotist?"
Stare out championships also brilliant.
Also the man with fat hands. And the manager who goes to great lengths to dodge his workers asking for a payrise.
Big Train Staring competitions/ contest , is a must.
Big train Distracting Boss - juggling and puppies etc. are good too 😂👍
Get Spaced watched, think your partner will love that show too, def one to watch together.
🏆
My favourite segments in Big Train were always the staring competition bits, they were animated and brilliant, if you search Big Train staring contest you’ll get a bunch of them
The guy behind Simon Pegg is the actor Kevin Eldon (he was also in the IT crowd as the Frenchman with the ridiculous accent on the helpline, and also in an episode of game of thrones) he’s in big train, fist of fun and a few other daft sketch shows. A fan of green jelly… (look for fist of fun rod hull)
Yes you got on to big train! Please do more. What a show!
The guy behind Peg holding the stuck figures was the same guy (Kevin Eldon) who played the incomprehensible tech support guy in the IT Crowd, that's likely the last place you saw him. He's been in tons of stuff though, both comedic and dramatic, so you've probably seen his face many times before though not usually as a lead character.
Since about 2001 girls have shared the word wanking here in the UK. This sketch was written by Bill Crouse from the IT Crowd btw.
True I know a few girls say they would have a wank or like wanking. But obviously most I know wouldn't be so...blunt. since 2001? That's very random and precise date!
Yeah before that they'd just tickle the kipper.
That manager is a very young Mark Heap - Jim from Friday Night Dinner. BTW the female word is FRIG
SPACED is brilliant. But the manager laying down the no w@nk1ng rules is Mark Heap, i.e., Jim from Friday Night Dinner, he also plays Brian in SPACED.
He was also on smack the pony.
And the complainer was The Actor Kevin Eldon
I want to see mark on cats does countdown, i think he would be amazing on it
Green Wing too, another good one
Nick Frost, Simon Pegg, Dylan Moran, Johnny Vegas, writer of I.T.CROWD are friends!!! Plus many more!
Big Train was on quite a long time ago Simon Pegg is a legend the guy behind him Kevin Endon is a brilliant comic actor he was in the IT Crowd the foreign customer service desk another sketch program like this one was Absolutely that was a Scottish programme that had some great moments Thanks KinG Boomer I had forgotten this programme ❤
I was just watching some of the Frank Hovis sketches from Absolutely yesterday. "Taxi" and "Farting" are the two that spring to mind.
People have already mentioned that it's Kevin Eldon. He was in The IT Crowd as the computer supoort person on the phone with the really strong French accent.
The guy with the figures was Kevin Eldon. He played the patient in the Jam Doctor sketch that you recently reacted to, so that might be where you remember him from :-)
Nice observation
He was also the guy with the impenetrable accent on the end of the product helpline in the IT Crowd
@@mathuxley7264 And one of the officers in Hot Fuzz.
Kevin Eldon must have been in pretty well every sketch comedy and sitcom on British TV and radio for about the last thirty years!
The guy you think youve seen before is Kevin Eldon, who is a bit of an unsung hero of British comedy - hes been in and written for quite a few influential comedy shows over the last 3 or 4 decades, often at the surreal end of the comedy spectrum. He was the patient in the sketch you reacted to some days ago, Jam Doctor.
He was also the French guy on the helpline on the IT Crowd
And Rod Hull in Fist of fun.
@@tannoys2008 ...and the cleaner in Black Books (dirty!), and Mike Sampson, the racist kitchen salesman in I'm Alan Partridge. He's had cameo roles in a lot of the best comedy shows, he's always hilariously good!
@@jam-nc8ut I want to clean your dusty cups from the inside out.
Saw Al Murray in St Albans live yesterday...Guv Island....awesome .
‘The Armando Ianucci Show’ is a good one to react to
3:08 Frig !
Flicking the bean? 🤔😅
Frigging, tossing the lettuce, flicking the bean... Take your pick 🤣
Kit Kat shuffle 'two fingers of fun' 😂☺
Rubbing the button...
Strangling the weasel
Big Train was the launch pad not only for the cast but the writers, if you see what everyone in this cast and writing team has gone on to do since it's pretty much all of UK comedy. Simon Pegg was already known when he did this as he did a lot of stuff with Steve Coogan but I think for the rest this was the first thing they became known for.
Big train was amazing. A Linehan and Matthews writing credit so definitely put on the watchlist
Women: Flickin' the bean 😆
Or having a strum or strumming 😁
In an office environment, the correct term is "clicking her mouse" :P
Yep. They be 'bean flickers'
I just thought it was “fingering” 🇬🇧
The Kit Kat shuffle
Underrated show, so many great sketches.
Mark Heap (Jim from FND) as the office manager. Big Train was a brilliantly loony but short-lived show - most of the cast went onto other things - Heap, Amelia Bullimore, Julia Davis & Kevin Eldon turned up variously in Brass Eye & Jam. The Julia Davis sitcom Nighty Night should be on your list.
Big Train was fantastic! Kevin Eldon was sitting behind Simon. Hilarious take on the smoking ban.
The ACTOR Kevin Eldon
Rodney Hull 🍮🥄🦾
@@jedthementalist5112I am Rod Hull.
THE actor Kevin Eldon, from 1992's Packing Them In?
French tech support guy in the IT Crowd 😂😂
@@jedthementalist5112 I AM HIM!
The guy behind Simon Pegg was in Black Books. The cleaner that said 'dirrrrrty' and had you and QB losing it! He was also in Hot Fuzz
Kevin Eldon is the "non-wanker" you have seen him in many things
Jam Doctor - bored sexline patient
I.T.Crowd - French tech support
Im Alan Partiridge - Laughing Racist
Black Books - Mr. Dirty the cleaner
Hot Fuzz - Sergeant Fisher
Game of Thrones - one of the Goldcloaks who Gendry kills on the beach.
Big Train Florence Nightingale.
The guy behind Simon Pegg is the computer help desk guy from IT Crowed with the ridiculous accent.
The chsp behind Pegg was Kevin Eldon - brilliant. He is scattered throughout Brass Eye & Jam (sexline doctor sketch) & was also the foreign (French? Swedish?) call centre operative in one of the last IT crowd shows.
Big Train - look out for the international staring championships
5 finger shuffle, KitKat Shuffle, strumming, playing the Banjo... LOL 😅🤣😂😆😅🤣😂😲 💪😯🤳
Big Train is really old in comparison to other shows and is not that well known. It's just a sketch show that only has a couple of handfulls of episodes. Most of the people you see in Big Train is their debut. It was kinda like their audition for bigger things... If you can find it you should look at the Ming sketches, all of them. It's pure laughter.
Love Big Train. I was a student at the time, it was 'down with the kids' so to speak. Seemed to be the genesis of many a UK comedy/acting career.
The man holding up the figures is the actor Kevin Eldon. He does a lot of straight acting these day and features in the recent Napoleon film. The boss Mark Heap is Jim from Friday Night Dinner
The actor Kevin Eldon is the guy with the papers, I think. He's been in loads of comedy stuff over the years.
Thanks for getting his full title correct
The Big train Sketch that got me was the staring contest voiced by a well known Soccer commentator in the UK
Kevin Eldon (hot fuzz) and the manager (mark heap, spaced and worlds end) are old mates of Simon Pegg.
Big train is an under the radar, sadly neglected show. In fact, you've just reminded me of its existence. Thank you, good sir and whoever recommended it!
Glad you liked it, I feel like royalty having a recommendation chosen sire!!! 3 in that shot are regulars in 'Jam' too
Btw, also part written by one of the father ted writers. Big train is an awesome comedy aswell to watch after black books
An office I worked at had "no w@nk wednesdays", and that was bad enough 😅
I scrolled to look to check before I suggested "No Wank Wednesdays".
Big Train is great, so many classic sketches in that show
So glad that you have found ‘Big Train’ they had some really funny and surreal sketches and watching them will prepare you for watching the brilliant ‘Spaced’
Mark Heap, the office manager there, features very prominently in one of the UK's greatest ever comedy series, Green Wing, which you should definitely react to.
You need to take another ride on the BIG TRAIN, very funny, underrated show.
The guy you thought you'd seen before was a guy you saw only a few days ago in the 1st episode of Black Books. He was one of the customers. He was also the mad French online help expert in one ep of The IT Crowd. Kevin Eldon is his name.
This was one of my favourite Big Train sketches way back when! The "Moment of Destiny" sketch has Simon Pegg being TRULY ridiculous, it's fantastic 😂
Also great sketches from Big Train are. Teaching son how to ride a bike with Simon Pegg and gymanast with Mark Heap. Hilarious.
My favourite 'Big Train' sketches include are the "productivity bonus" ones where manager Mark Heap keeps escaping from employees.
So glad you got round to this one... looking forward to it.
'Flicking the little squirrel'
You seen him recently, he was the "...DIRTY" cleaner in Black Books. Also the guy giving the order was Mark Heap aka Jim
The manager was jim (mark heap) from Friday night dinner and the guy you mentioned was in episode of THE IT CROWD where moss got arrested. He was the guy on the phone to jen talking gibberish when trying to fix her laptop
Love big train, miss it not being on tv. Need to try and find the staring competition clips
It’s funny that you said you recognise the guy sitting behind Simon Pegg, because he was in IT Crowd season 2 episode 5 Bad Boys. He was the telephone support guy with the strange accent. It’s funny because you said exactly the same thing in that video and I commented there with the things you might recognise him from (Hot Fuzz and Game of Thrones).1
Also, yes, please react to Spaced. It’s my favourite comedy and it’s only two short seasons, so won’t take long to get through, but thoroughly worth it. Plus, one of the episodes has a scene that was the inspiration for Shawn of the Dead.
As for more Big Train, I’ve gone to the trouble of compiling a list of some of the best sketches. CZcams doesn’t like video links, so just type “Big Train” followed by these search terms and they should be the first results.
“Alfred Hitchcock spoof”
“War time show and tell”
“Jockeys in the wild” then “Jockeys stampede”
“Showjumpers & firefighters”
“Hypnotherapy”
“Office politics”
“Robot policeman”
“Starting blocks”
The guy announcing the "no more wanking" was the only one who didn't appear on I'm Alan Partridge! The guy complaining was the guy who kept laughing in the lift (who sells kitchens but can't cook), the woman was Alan's Ukrainian girlfriend Sonia and of course Simon Pegg was part of the canal boat commercial team.
Needles to say….. i thought the woman sounded familiar but i wouldn’t of realised that she was sonia
Big Train - written by the same writers as Father Ted - the brilliant Kevin Eldon is the guy behind Simon Pegg & Mark Heap is the boss, my favourite sketch is Ralph “Streets of London” McTell
Big Train is a goldmine!
Spaced!!!!!!!
P.S. The boss in this Scene is Jim from Friday Night Dinner
Thought someone would get there before me
Big Train was brilliant. Written by the Father Ted writers. The skit with a guy dressed as a cat and one dressed as a mouse in the pub is one of my favourite of all time. Genius.
I'm glad you found Big Train.
Hope you find/like Smack The Pony (sketch show), and, Spaced, and Green Wing (both sitcoms).
Flicking the bean
Big Train was incredible
The missing word is “ frigging “ or “ flicking the bean “ KB… 😝
👍🏴
I've been asking for big train for years !!!!!!!! After years of shouts we get to big train yeeeees !
Big train - Spoons
Big Train was fantastic, the one where the guy goes to meet his birth mother is particularly memorable
Please watch the whole series. It’s a great sketch show with many classic sketches
"The Wanker's Weekly" is essential reading in British offices.
"That guy" is in a lot of sketch comedy but also played one of the cops in Hot Fuzz which might be where he made a bigger impression on your memory.
One of the best sketches ever!! Big Train was so underrated at the time, but most people involved went on to big things after it!
I had one watching this 😳deffo watch spaced you'll enjoy it great reaction again
He was in IT crowd as the bomb disposal tech support guy with the weird accent
Never got into "Spaced" but "Big Train" was good.
Big Train is fantastic
Enjoying your reactions in your office as you really 'get off' on the humour.
For some reason missed the Big Train, could of been the time it was on. So had a laugh with this.
Spaced is good with the writing by Jessica Hynes, Simon Pegg and the direction by Edgar Wright. Think the style of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and At Worlds End.
Another one to consider is Coupling; a very bizarre take on the relationships of a group of friends. In is adult in nature, if you enjoyed this sketch then Coupling is for you. It would be interesting to hear your reaction to a scene then to hear Lady Boomers.
In the movie "Wolf of Wall Street" Matthew McConaughey recommends 4 or 5 times a day at the office
Only took me 25 years to realise that was Sonja from S2 of I'm Alan Partridge
One reason this show wasn’t bigger was because it was one of the first programmes on Channel 5, a new addition to UK broadcast TV, in 1990 I think, from memory, and not many people watched the channel. Pity.
Can't believe king Boomer didn't pick up that was Jim from Friday night dinner
please do more Big train! Its soo good
The chap with the papers stuck together was in I'm Alan Partridge as the racist guest in the travel tavern. Simon Pegg was also in that series of course. Big train was well liked but was not that well known. Keep the reaction videos coming!
Big Train was great but not many people watched it or then remember it... Spaced is a MUST!!!!
My Big Train must-watches:
- "Is this some kind of joke?"
- "Ball shop"
- "Firemen and Showjumpers"
- "Jockeys in the wild"
Another good short is Mitchell and Webb, working from home.
Big Train - New Office Manager
One of my favourite sketches.
Another great big train sketch is Future cop 👍👍👍👍👍
Was wondering when you'd get on to Big Train again, such an underrated sketch show
Strumming,knacking, flicking the bean. If I think of any more i'll let you know.
