Couldn't really remember it other than the elastica song, having watched this it's got some great songs.

20:46 It's a guy in a dog costume being "randomly" attacked by another person in a dog costume. 100% of Brits will immediately realise this is a piss take, roll their eyes and get on with their day.

The memories of this... man. I was in the army doing my consription service. The year was 2001 (we actually saw the 9/11 news while in service). The weekend holidays home with hot sauba, hot pizza, ice cold beer and Trigger Happy TV was the absolute high light of my life those days.

I remember he did one sketch in which he crept up behind an Eskimo, who was fishing through a hole in the ice in the far north of Canada, and did a loud CLANG! noise with a pair of cymbals, just to make the eskimo jump out of his skin with the surprise/ fright. He flew to Canada specifically to do that one joke / sketch.

KZread pranks before KZread existed.

This was so ahead of the times.. Some were hit and miss but others were hilarious

Phone jacker is worth a watch. Same as this. But in my opinion it’s funnier

I was just about to write that. I think it's spelt Fonejacker. The best of compilations are brilliant.

@@colinglen4505 you’re correct mate, it is fonejacker haha. I just start typing and don’t think about the correct spelling as I want to get the comment posted haha. Really how they do some. I only found out a few years ago that it’s waj from 4 lions who did the voices 😆 was so surprised to learn that

Facejacker was better as you got to see the prank

4:48 This is a safari park. The animals, including Lions etc are in extremely large enclosures that you drive through and they are essentially roaming free. You are under strict instructions to keep windows closed and doors locked. A very common occurrence at these places is having monkeys or smaller apes like baboons swarming your car, breaking windscreen wipers etc.

I am so happy someone reacted to Trigger Happy. It was such a funny show 😂

Loved this in the late 90s. And good to see the Lord of Bath again. Always Found it so funny that he was a lord with a huge estate, but looked like my mum's hippe artist friends. 😊

I remember the frail old guy holding up traffic on the crossing then after crossing runs off at speed lmao 😂

Dom Joly did a watchalong of Trigger Happy on KZread during Covid. He said the student he was pretending to recruit for intelligence left 3 messages on his ansaphone just saying "Mugwoffin", each time.

'World Shut Your Mouth' is fantastic too. Loads of trigger happy memories. Beautiful 90's & early 2000's

Trigger Happy TV was a big hit in the UK - It's funny how the Americans don't seem to find the pranks very funny , preferring to sympathise with the people being pranked. For me, none of the stunts are cruel or hurtful. They simple leave the people puzzled

I’m so happy to see this - loved this since the first time I saw it years and years ago.

I Loved the Music all the way thru this, so many Great Memories.

10:32 that’s Lord Bath - a famous aristocrat in real life

Was an iconic show and soundtrack was amazing

Did you know that the main actor you have been watching is Dom Jolly he went to the same school as Osama bin Laden in Lebanon.

That's cool. I love Dom. ❤ Osama not so much. 💔

You should have a look at Burniston, especially the voice recognition elevator in Scotland and Ma mad Uncles. Fkn hilarious.👌😂

I never understood why Trigger Happy TV wasn't picked up by North American TV networks. Well worth binge watching everything Dom Jolly has ever done! Little known fact is he got his start by protesting politicians when they were being interviewed. While they were talking he'd do things like have a couple people in giant squirrel costumes start humping in the background. He wouldn't have it filmed but instead relied on the interviewers sharing it on TV as it was always more interesting than the actual interviews. Later one of the networks gave Dom Jolly his own low-budget show and Trigger-Happy TV was created.

Phone jacker is another great prank call tv show 😊

Forgot how good the soundtrack was for trigger happy….playlist incoming

15:36 there were Guardian Angels in London too for a while

You lot need to look Fonejacker. You’ll love it

Watch "Brass Eye" its the OG of this type of stuff. 🎂

Try the Fast Show for clips (1990's) Johnny Depp guested on it. Or 'Father Ted' if you haven't done it already.

You lads have got to try 'nighty night'

Trigger Happy TV was just harmless fun. Not offensive, not overly violent, not risking anyone's safety. Modern prank shows have upped the ante and yes, they are the sort of shows which will offend and will threaten peoples safety. Especially this youtube shit where people go around slapping people or stealing as a prank. That's not a prank, it's just criminal behavior. But I think the main problem with this show is that the British are just too laid back. We don't really react. We just observe and ether politely go along with it or awkwardly do nothing. I guess a more modern version of this is Impractical Jokers. And that show had a British and American version and just like I said, the British version didn't really work because the British just shrug it off. It's Americans who are shocked, appalled, insulted or scared shitless.

Trust me guys do a reaction to Annoying devil

re-up

Growing up as an early teen and the birth of Monty Python I was blessed to witness the beginnings of Brithish new-age tv comedy but I never found Trigger funny at all ............if these were the best jokes then splice three minutes of Nish Kumar on the end to ensure a coup de grace .

These were a bit lame. There are much funnier ones. Disappointing.

Scraping the bottom of the barrel with this guys.
