An enormously talented group of actors doing sketch comedy. They would go on to become comedy superstars. It only lasted two years, but had the magic touch of Lineham and Morris.
Contains rather too many jokes in which a person or object is placed in a disjunctive setting, but it's second only to 'Kids in the Hall' in terms of the quality of comedic performers - though I'd rather they'd been given a little more of the script writing privileges. Watching 'Big Train' allows one to work out which 'Jam/ Blue Jam' sketches Mathews and Linehan wrote, which is pleasing! Dat tin man tho.
