Best of Smack The Pony

[@rossturpin8047]

The Labrador even looked confused 😂😂😂😂😂

[@constructioneerful]

The Labrador’s expression was perfect.

[@veg4life.]

Yeah 🤣 😂

[@TheKaiTetley]

I believe that expression is called Blue Steel

[@nunyanunya4147]

'whats the bitches problem??? so... exersize around the pond then?"

[@Me-hs4jj]

I can confirm that that Labrador is called Meryl.

[@muddydog6605]

@Me-hs4jj No that's Jessie, Meryl isn't as easy going.

[@dr.zippymcscoots8725]

Hard to believe this show is over 20 years ago

[@gordondean2165]

Delightful and hilarious from start to finish, good writing and acting all round.

[@pseudonayme7717]

Still one of the best sketch shows ever made. Sally and Doon just crack me up😂and they were all excellent, including the guys.

[@eckoschreiber]

Delicately whacky;o) And aged quite well! Also loved them in Coupling, Green Wing and Suburban Shootout... Though after x series of Leverage I still tend to mix up G. Bellman and A. Chancellor^^ And Spy, Whites, Dirk Gently...forgot how burly Darren Boyd was, rrr;o) TittyBangBang, Black Lady Sketch Show, Aunty Donna? Death comes to town?

[@janeherriot7880]

I love them so much and the Labrador is unbelievably good in the scene

[@YourXavier]

Reacting properly when you have no lines is a sign of a natural actor.

[@markchampagnie9401]

Man I remember when they first came out on TV....wicked then...and still now...100 💯🇯🇲🇬🇧

[@D-Rv8iv]

I had the biggest crush on Sally Phillips.

[@D-Rv8iv]

It’s the smile. And the smiling eyes.

[@jamesgedling2447]

She's still lovely

[@D-Rv8iv]

@@jamesgedling2447 agreed. I heard an interview with her talking about her faith. It put me off somewhat.

[@jamesgedling2447]

@mickylove76 Oh no, did the god botherers get her.. another lost soul to the invisible friend in the sky.

[@chrisconway4906]

I still have😂

[@madoldbatwoman]

Fair play to them, funny as hell and stands the test of time.

[@jasonkortink4785]

Omg what talented and beautiful women.love this show never heard of it before .love you ladies

[@MsWill813]

52:20 is what I imagine dating is now. There is not much IRL communication so no practice in reading clues and you need a verbal consent for every part. 😂

[@zapkvr]

The date profile videos are hilarious

[@Seahorse1414]

Poor dog was baffled ! 😁

[@StoicTheGeek]

Amazingly enough, there is evidence that placebos are still somewhat effective even when the patient knows they’re being given a placebo.

[@zapkvr]

Yeah I'm going to need to see the evidence. If a non effective cure fixes anything, is the person even unwell?

[@Zodroo_Tint]

People still wearing mask even if they know it does nothing they still think it is effective.

[@muddydog6605]

Hmmm, if I was part of a medical study group and was told I was taking a placebo I would assume it could be the opposite. Knowing it's a placebo and being told it's one are two different things.

[@StoicTheGeek]

@@zapkvr if you google “open label placebo study” you’ll find papers, eg. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5841659/

[@StoicTheGeek]

@@muddydog6605 one would assume so, but it’s often not the case. Open level placebos without deception are still better than nothing, and it’s not just that the patient expects to get better from the placebo, either.

[@metalmick]

That Lab' definitely deserves an award. Great acting!

[@little_fluffy_clouds]

This is the show that kicked off my huge crush on Sarah Alexander. Later on, she would go on to star in Coupling and Green Wing, two of the funniest British sitcoms ever made. What an incredibly talented, funny and beautiful lady.

[@acidxburn125]

20 years later and i still love these lady`s. 90`s comedy is the best in history, and will never be surpassed :)

[@LuisKolodin]

Ok, but STP is 2000's 😂

[@ERICBOND2222]

I have never witness such streak of original Comedy !

[@TrailVapor]

online dating hasn't changed in over 20 years then

[@andromalius8890]

Doon cracks me up. I love her as Cathy in Two Doors Down. And apparently she’s coming back for the new season!

[@andrewcarter7503]

I remember this the first time round. Still just as funny watching again. I remember the "two girls" dating video and am currently preparing myself to see if it's on the highlights.....

[@Uygkuyfkutfkytfkutfv]

Doon doesn’t get spoken of enough. She should be a Dame. Absolutely top tier funny.

[@s4ndb]

40:00 - the birth of Dr. Alan Statham's character from Green Wing!

[@ki5h0re]

I used to watch this show. The main cast have been great in their individual shows and films. Sally is great in I'm Alan Partridge.

[@YourLocalGP]

@@ki5h0re she's absolutely brilliant in Veep. Plays a Finnish prime minister.

[@rmlfilms123]

I'd love to see a full series with the musicians and the ballet dancer, I think they could have developed that into something really great.

[@sivansharma5027]

How have I never seen this before!? Such aussie style humour, it'd be a hit here. Very on the nose and refreshing to see jokes on womens issues/perspectives

[@beowulf1417]

SBS use to air it when it was originally running.

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

One of the best comedy shows back then and still fresh today. They should come back for a new series.

[@veg4life.]

Trance music tiesto smack the pony , where have u been all my life , im an old school tiesto fan from godskitchen Birmingham uk , those days 😊

[@rocketpost1]

Excellent, had me really laughing a few times. I think it's the unexpected that is so funny. Sally Phillips is still around and still looking much the same but I don't know where the others have gone. I've seen it a few times before but I love the sketch where Sally has the glass stuck round her mouth. It's just silly but so funny.

[@UncleWally3]

Watching it from a 2024 perspective, the placebo skit is extraordinary prescient.

[@TheHoldenmcgroin]

The dog sketch... lmfao.

[@user-cl1ew9ki5i]

That was the most fun 1hr20min I've had in ages. 😂 Why didn't we get that in Australia? I didn't want it to end 😢. Now I'm going to go down the rabbit hole to find as much out as i can about this show and and the comedians. They're all a bit familiar but now I'm on a mission. Thanks for the belly laughs ❤ from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺

[@beowulf1417]

We did. SBS use to air it during its original run.

[@user-cl1ew9ki5i]

@@beowulf1417 that makes total sense 😀 I think that was when I worked a lot of shift work. So my bad. SBS has always been a fav of mine. I would have recorded it the VHS if I'd known. I've watched all i have found so far on youtube and then even rewatched some of it. I think I'm going to have a Little Britain binge tonight. Thanks for the info. Have a great evening 😀

[@zapkvr]

It was on in Australia. On ABC I watched it.

[@zapkvr]

​@user-cl1ew9ki5i you can buy the DVD

[@1nfiniteSeek3r]

They did a film which is on Amazon called Gladiatress. Sally and Sarah Alexander were both great in Green Wing on Channel four, and Doon did a few bits with Allen Partridge.

[@michaelfarkas6368]

I love watching these three hilariously silly jerks, they are so funny and silly I cant stand it ! Bravo , keep doing it ladies!

[@arejetko]

Super-funny and drop dead gorgeous. What's not to like? That scene with the poles is so Warhol - way before your time.

[@KrillMister57]

Ugh! I miss this show on the evening tv!

[@warrencox8290]

Love it! The girls are so off key. This definitely needs a new series, I just hope they can find the actors

[@neilshots]

So good. They just did stuff that nobody else could have done and still funny now.

[@sutranexusagency]

Monty Python, Smack The Pony, Trigger Happy TV.... British still do the best sketch comedy.

[@Anygodwilldo]

c;assic 90's , I loved this, thanks for putting it on YT ;-)

[@katrinamichael6076]

Why have I never seen this before?? I've had to have a break half through cos my make-up's run down my contorted face, I've peed myself twice and I have pains in my stomach.. I think I may need an ambulance.. Soooo funny....

[@kareengilbert2162]

The signing...I just can't...hysterical

[@patriciaburns1033]

I had almost forgotten how good this is, I still use phrases from this show and those who know know, and can I just say "I'm a beautiful lady with long golden hair and huge breasts, and I will hug your breath away"

[@DomIstKrieg]

"Come. Come aboard the looooove train."

[@pseudonayme7717]

Aah yes. David Walliams actually stole that line for his little Britain sketch too, almost equally funny but for very different reasons...😄

"Yeah. Funny coincidence." "No, the Show." "The Show as a conincidence?" "No, the Show is Funny." "And the Coincidence not?" "Why should it?" "Because I laughed."

[@TheStevePow]

Good then and still, very funny and often moreso from the female perspective too 🤣

Timeless lunacy.

[@merseydave1]

I loved them ... and I fancied Doon

[@lokanoda]

Actually there's a study that shows that placebo works, even if the patient knows it's a placebo. If I remember correctly, in 50% of the cases.

[@SuperWang-k2c]

A great series, when we could realky laugh at each other.

[@jperry714]

The sketch that starts at 39:05 predicts the Stanley cup craze of 2023. At least we should have paid better attention to it 😂

[@jonyboyjpk]

hardly the sketch is about something completely different.

[@davebox588]

Which one was the Finnish PM in Veep? She was absolutely amazing in that show. Stole the series in reality.

[@sporkfindus4777]

How come Sarah Alexander was never regarded as one of the group? Maybe she didn't write the sketches?

[@chrisjames3204]

Because she was the hot one, it brought the others down.😁

[@VelvetMetrolink]

She was a regular guest rather than core cast. And Chris James is a miserable nobody who judges women purely by whether he'd want to have sex with people who wouldn't notice he exists, and thinks he's funny 😁

[@beowulf1417]

Pretty much spot on, she only has some additional writing credits on 5 eps. Outside of the US, you're only a real cast member of a sketch show if you're a regular contributor in the writers room

[@CH-iy3kd]
