Video: Have you seen the Sminky Shorts Christmas Turkey clip yet?

His animated clips have already been viewed by millions on YouTube and the man behind the excellent Sminky Shorts series has come up trumps once again with a brilliant Christmas clip.

His animated clips have already been viewed by millions on YouTube and the man behind the excellent Sminky Shorts series has come up trumps once again with a brilliant Christmas clip.

You may have been too busy enjoying your presents, watching TV or stuffing your face with turkey sandwiches to come across it, but Jason Sullivan, the Cork genius behind Sminky Shorts, had a special gift for fans of the series yesterday with a brand new clip focussed on the plight of two very Irish sounding turkeys (or, more specifically, Cork sounding turkeys) at Christmas.

We don’t want to give too much away, but in the clip, one turkey tries to feed and fatten the other so as to increase the chances of his foe ending up on the Christmas dinner table, but the ploy fails when the other turkey cops on to his dirty tactics, leading him to call his aggressor nothing but “a dirty, rotten, shnaky turkey”.

Regular fans of the series will love the clip above, but if you have yet to sample the brilliance of the Sminky Shorts series yet, it’s certainly not a bad place to start.
