TV's Greatest Hospital Fight Scene Ever | Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace

[@timhorsburgh2193]

"anything without dialogue was considered for slow motion"

[@Kylechaneymultimedia]

The slow motion Matt Berry jump and point sells this so bad.

[@spike3333]

We can all agree the makers of John Wick clearly "borrowed" a lot from this scene.

[@tylergooden2183]

A lot of other great films in the history of cinema has borrowed from this scene, not just john wick

[@garysmith3173]

😂😂😂😂

[@BovineDesigns]

Agreed, honestly I can’t believe no one else noticed that John’s iconic eyeball homonculous was stolen directly from this masterpiece.

[@duncankimball]

You win the internet!

[@PALACIO254]

Almost scene for scene in all four movies

[@nickblomgren]

I'm impressed the actors did their own stunts. And own acting.

[@modernmobster]

They don't act, they truth.

[@philbattiste9649]

"He wasn't an actor. Then again, not many of them were."

[@ChronoKatie]

"You know how I feel about Wonton. If I saw him in the street, I wouldn't even stop to slap his ass" is probably my absolute favorite Darkplace line.

[@LSD_93]

You can dissect a heart, but you'll never find out what makes it Skipper beat.

Matt Berry has a magnificent voice and glorious hair

[@maxiscoolaf]

Ylva Rasmussen THANK YOU! Finally someone agrees with me about his hair! I’ve tried mentioning it,and I don’t anymore because of the looks I’ve gotten But Matt Berry has the most glorious looking hair I’ve ever seen. It’s just so glossy and wavy and it looks very soft Is that creepy? It sounds a little creepy,I’ll just go

[@MrWazhead]

'' Look out,he's got a stick'' Its got to be the best quote of all time! XD

[@gimmedataids]

It's like the funeral scene in the other episode. "Look out he's got a gun!" "That's the mother, Rick!"

[@jermaineayivoh8263]

“Well that will stop him!”

[@JeroenDStout]

Dean Learner nervously eyeing the camera really makes this scene

2:05 - HAHAHAHA, gotta love Matt Berry.

[@Cer-i9e]

The man is a god xD

[@RetroRanter]

He came round that corner ready as hell 😂 👌

[@ironhead108]

Berry is a deity, and that sliding stance and point is evidence. Not even Paul Ince could point like that.

[@markmccallum475]

Watching the mandalorian and this is all i can think about.

[@fordism.01]

One of the most underrated comedies that was on channel four. Shame it wasn't as big as the mighty boosh. I think it was much funnier.

[@thegodpopper8934]

The most underrated I reckon

[@A-small-amount-of-peas]

I liked them both. British comedy seems a bit stale now

[@Astral-Projector2389]

This type of humor requires a broad open mind and the majority of sheeps in this world has not.

It wasn’t underrated at all you watched it and are here just like the other 150,000 people watching this clip years after it got shown

"You're acting like an APE! A WILD APE!" Such foreshadowing! Much wow!

1:32 I love how he just straight up killed a guy

[@nivenfres]

Would have been funny if you could see a little action figure body laying on the ground when they showed the exterior shot at the end.

[@BlueFox284]

@@nivenfres Or show the figure falling with blood already on the pavement waiting for it to land.

Nah he appeared like 10 second later in the hallway, so he was fine

[@nikejordanguy2122]

1:29, Dag punched Liz in the face.

He could have gotten the stick 😂

[@sway_9803]

I love the way matt berry points his finger on the paper lmao

And the way he jumps around the corner of pointing in the direction

[@ZyxthePest]

"You know what, Sanch? You can dissect a heart, but you can never figure out what makes it skip a beat." As abysmally cheesy as that is, it's the closest Garth came to writing a earnestly heartfelt line haha.

[@CognizantCheddar]

He absolutely says "...what makes it Skipper beat," not 'skip a beat.' This is important.

[@Zeropointill]

Love how Dagless perpetually kills a man by pushing him off the roof but once they’re inside all’s good again

[@kevynhansyn2902]

That's the WCW toss the Giant off of the tower and back at the PPV again as if nothing ever happened.

[@iangaskins3843]

There's like a hundred jokes packed into just the first scene alone.

[@wellesradio]

Thank you, camera operator, for being so literal with that final exterior. They really did go to a dark place.

[@_scyas_1827]

'' Look out. He's got a stick.''

[@deeplander]

Things I love about this: 1. Sanchez's very campy theatrical point to the lab results 2. Dagless emphasising the "ton" in "wonton" like it's two separate words 3. Reed's direct stare into the camera while Sanchez is talking after this 4. The Skipper pun 5. "Kay." "Kay." "Kay." "Kay." "Kay." "But as soon as I'd finished saying kay to Reed-" 6. The oily bald heads in Dagless' vision 7. Dagless punching Liz in the face 8. The way Sanchez just leapt away from Dagless after Reed got hit 9. The guy that ran to Dagless, got punched lightly in the face, continued running and threw himself from the hospital roof unprompted 10. The voiceover of "look out, he's got a stick!" 11. 3 doctors not being able to hold back one guy with one free arm 12. Dagless seemingly passing the stick to Jim as he fell 13. The guy who walked into a wheelchair then looked surprised as he tripped over it 14. Sanchez's kung-fu leap into action 15. Reed looking dishevelled despite only being shoved once 16. The way everyone just awkwardly stands and watches as Dagless beats a baby to death 17. Reed looking at the camera like he's trying not to laugh at how absurd the situation is

[@Alphoric]

You’re over complicating it

[@honeytlbadger4365]

3:27 AHAHAHAAHAH DEAN'S FACE IS LIKE WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE FILMING

[@TheDreamingJune]

"You know how I feel about Wonton. If i saw him in the street I wouldn't stop to slap his ass." Just beautiful 👌🏾

[@nomiddlenamenmn427]

“Look out. He’s gotta stick.”

Haha, I loved this. Just bought season 1. Mat Berry and Richard Ayoade are awesome.

[@StoicLion]

I found this show 15 years ago when episodes aired on Syfy Channel then, later, Adult Swim. Utterly brilliant. I rewatch every year.

[@matthewdinse]

Clearly the greatest show ever made

@Natmanprime And why? I wonder WHY you think that's crazy for me to laugh at. Was it not supposed to be funny?? Like what was your purpose?
