VIDEO: Foil, Arms and Hog’s latest sketch brilliantly sums up every Skype conversation gone wrong

Conor Heneghan

We’ve all been there.

Skype has revolutionised the way people communicate over the last number of years, particularly when you’re looking to catch up with friends or family who live halfway across the world.

That said, virtually everyone who has used Skype will have encountered difficulties at one stage, difficulties that could be caused by dodgy internet connection, a dodgy computer, phone or tablet or, worst of all, that painstaking delay that often leads to the most awkward of conversations.

We’re big fans of Foil, Arms and Hog on the site and they’ve pretty much encapsulated all the potential pitfalls of a Skype conversation in their latest sketch, most importantly the need to wear trousers when doing a job interview online.
