James Acaster and Josh Widdicombe get stuck on a train - Classic Scrapes

[@jaredsnaithminogue8475]

"You know when the train derailed, yeah then" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@tamarasnaithminogue]

That’s not funny

[@jiyu9277]

@@tamarasnaithminogue it was funny to them

[@paulphillips4436]

I was on a train to work which was stopped, as often happened for some mundane reason or other. But this morning was special as everyone on board got to catch a man making “love” to livestock next to the track. He was convicted, gladly, but never been able to unsee that.

I've served my time.

"The train is NOT on fire..."

[@nijnij3988]

Haha, I'm a bit late to the party, but did you ever see that sketch of How to Irritate People on a Plane? With John Cleese, Graham Chapman and Michael Palin. It's great. Looks like the train conductor in James' scrape may have been familiar with that sketch

[@Dgsblx80]

oh James, you do get into some classic scrapes 😎

[@benherbert3635]

Funny coincidence my brother got stuck on a train coming to see James and he missed the entire show

[@roseturner6292]

Loving every single one of these!

[@fwabcaf]

I would love to see a sitcom titled Scrapes starring James Acaster.

"I can't help it, it's where the badgers are! XD

[@jamesthorner2555]

this is the best one

[@annother3350]

It's not as good as la la la la la humpty!!

[@henrylong00]

a similar thing happened to me at Preston train station when I'd just arrived from London, he talked to me about how Preston is a shithole for about 5 minutes and then moved on to how his passion in life is heavy plant machinery and how there's a bulldozer that can work underwater

[@normplatt7549]

A classic giggle brother! oye ! oye! Savoy!

[@abenhur100]

One thing: if the fire alarm went off, it makes sense the train driver would say that there is no fire - in order to assure people there's no fire...

[@visionitesdublab8525]

great music ! :)

[@DM-kv9kj]

More examples of this high quality privatised rail service. Delays every other train, wheels just falling off, tickets costing hundreds of pounds each, staff having their working rights removed, endless strikes due to corporate greed and lies...

[@chriskaprys]

re: note on vid opener -- ...which begs the question: where DID you find a picture of James on a train .. next to Nish. Are you inside his luggage?

[@chriskaprys]

this is sublime!

[@JehanineMelmoth]

Ah, bless him. He’s a sweet boy.

[@SA1upsb]

The Stella guy 😅

[@soapysoappla942]

classic james

[@kathrynillsley7557]

I misread this and thought he was on a train with Ann Widdecombe

[@malcolmmitchell266]

Check out Ann widdecombe's podcast where she riffs about the scrape she got into on a football special to Manchester with James acaster

[@reenarawat5537]

That guy sounded like richard from the first inbetweeners movie

"In Norway they would love that. Those overly friendly guys" No they won't. They are Northerners. All of us hate strangers. Especially those who talk to us, touches us, sits beside us on a public transport or/and makes eye contact. So please avoid doing that around us. Thank you😂😂😂

[@sparkle6460]

Who is the third guy talkig to james and josh, he sounds a bit like jimmy carr but i dont think its him 🤔

[@larsbrown13]

Is it not Stephen Merchant?

[@garybaldwin5241]

Sparkle 64 I

[@mcspeed2000]

Stephen Merchant has one of the most recognisable West Country accents in history, no-one in this video has anything remotely near that accent.

[@larsbrown13]

Yeah I don't know what I was thinking. It's Tom Craine.

[@electricgreenangela4408]

Can't help but think of Dan and Phil when things not being on fire and badgers were mentioned.

[@ThatCoalSoul]

10th.

[@jaredbowhay-pringle1460]

"Nish Kumar, a fantastic comedian". Debatable.

[@Pwwh0711]

No it's not debatable...he's crap, unless you happen to be a BBC exec with no accountability as the cash keeps rolling in! Oooh I wonder why he is ubiquitous right now, despite 10s of better comedians available?

[@jaredbowhay-pringle1460]

Oh, I agree, but the video describes him as being fantastic, so there's some debate to be had with someone at least. I've no idea how he managed to go from a handful of piss-poor panel appearances to having his own BBC show. As for your rhetorical question, if I'm getting the correct gist of it, there are plenty of very good Asian comedians who are either overlooked or have fallen out of favour who can do a far better job than Nish Kumar.

[@paulthoresen8241]

He always kills the flow for me

[@nickthelick]

TOTALLY agreed! He reminds me a bit of schoolboy humour: a slightly funny thing is said, but then is followed through with unstoppable, worsening, unfunny, comments/puns that are only slightly related to the last thing that was said! I find that Tom Davies is also guilty of this unfunny-ness (sp? Unfunniness?)... You end up gritting your teeth, willing and wishing them to stop!!! The more that you DON'T laugh, the harder they try, and yet their quickfire humour just gets worse and worse, more painful and more painful!!! Also, I can vouch for Tom being unfunny at school too. So it was a massive surprise, shock and disappointment when I first saw him on TV! How he got away with pitching that awful James Bond parody I'll never know!

[@lisahenry20]

It's usually not my type of comedy but there has been moment when he's been funny.

[@LowryYT]

the "peculiar guy" sounds like Karl Pilkington

[@DM-kv9kj]

Karl Pilkington doesn't care about charities, nor would he ever present a talk on wind energy, nor would he ever be in any way enthusiastic about it.

[@madmaniac2552]

Not at all.

[@matteo-cu8uv]

Wtf is a scrape

[@shelbyvillerules9962]

A procedure of dilatation of the cervix and curettage of the uterus... or in this case, most likely an embarrassing or difficult predicament caused by one's own unwise behaviour.
