HELP finding a sketch!

Hello all!

When I was younger I saw big train and some other great britcom.

There is a specific sketch that as endured in my mind forever (over a decade ago) and is actually part of many jokes between me and my friends.

I'm almost sure it was on Big Train, but it could have been in some other show of the kind... I hope someone can help me out, would love to find it!

The sketch consists of a family of four persons (mother, father, son and daughter) going for a picnic in a green and grassy hill. They put the picnic stuff beneath a tree and start enjoying the outdoor day. This is all in a too normal and romantic way.
They they start to hear a sound and the son asks what it is. One of the parents says its a bird (cant recall which) and they look up to see the bird. There two naked persons having hard sex on top of the tree... and the sketch ends abruptly!

Anyone can point me out where I can rewatch this???
I'll offer free cookies! :D

Thanks!

Not Big Train and it doesn't sound familiar to me sorry :(

That might be one of the Newly Weds sketches from the Fast Show. Don't quote me on it, but I am relatively sure thats what it would be.

Doesn't ring a bell. . .

Could you be confusing it with a sketch from Chris Morris' " Jam " ?

Jam featured a lot of the same actors as Big Train and the fact you mentioned " hard sex " in the sketch makes me wonder if it's something that Chris Morris might do. . .

By the way, if you aren't already aware of Jam, i HIGHLY recommend getting it on DVD if you are so inclined to do so, as it's Big Train, but with THE most dark and disturbing twist on things. Still hilariously funny, but you'll feel a bit sickly by the end of it. It's a forgotten gem of genius and you might like it a lot :)

I believe this was a recurring sketch on The Fast Show.

The couple having sex was definitely a sketch on The Fast Show, not Big Train. I think it was Charlie Higson and Arabella Weir.
