Take another quickie example from Big Train where we see a woman in a white coat using a brush to clean the face of a blackened body. We’re fooled into thinking the situation is one thing, then the punchline reveals it’s completely different. Most comedy ideas can be put it into one of the following categories: He looks at the carnage around him, turns to the camera, and says, “Good job I didn’t tell them about the dirty knife.” Here the humour comes from the ludicrously exaggerated way in which the restaurant staff over-react to the discovery of the dirty fork, but the final joke is provided by the customer. The chef is tackled by the two waiters and all three die in the ensuing fight. The chef then bursts in, blames the customer for the manager’s death and tries to kill him. The manager is so upset by the dirty fork that he kills himself with it. The head waiter is also horrified and fetches the manager. The waiter is horrified and fetches the head waiter. A couple in a restaurant are about to order their meal when the man mentions to the waiter that he has a dirty fork. The classic sketch then ends on a visual or verbal punchline to wrap everything up. Sketches are longer and consist of a string of action and/or dialogue that extracts humour from a specific situation. The monk passes a statue of a naked woman and, seeing no-one around, he surreptitiously reaches out to touch one of the statue’s boobs - and an alarm goes off. One quickie from the BBC sketch show Big Train has a monk taking a contemplative walk in a peaceful garden. As the name suggests, quickies are usually short.
