FUNNY ENGLISH PROBLEMS - QUESTION TAGS!

Hello Everybody,

It is a sketch comedy show. It consists of a series of short comedy scenes of vignettes, called "sketches", commonly between one to ten minutes long. Such sketches are perfomed by a group of comic actors or comedians, either on stage or through an audio and/ or visual medium such as broadcasting. Often sketches are first improvisation is not necessarily involved in all sketch comedy.

In North America, contemporary sketch comedy is largely an outgrowth of the improvisational comedy scene that flourished during the 1970s, largely growing out of Chicago's The Second City.

This is a video of a famous sketch show known as The Sketch Show, which is a British television sketch comedy programme, featuring many leading British comedians. It aired on ITV between 2001 and 2004.

Have fun with such a freaking funny video!
