BBC Radio 1 presenter Greg James was horrified as his dog Barney ended up doing a huge wee on a London train on his way to the vet. Greg took to TikTok and posted a video recounting the mortifying experience where he just had to helplessly watch Barney do “the biggest p***” Greg had ever seen.
The trip started normally by all accounts – Greg said he and Barney were on the way to the vet to sort out the arthritis in his knee by getting an operation. “He loves the train, we’ve had a load of journeys together,” said Greg who even claimed he had had a toilet break beforehand in preparation.
Other passengers were petting Barney and enjoying his company. “He was all round being a very very good boy…. until – he shuffles over to the door and does the biggest p*** I’ve ever seen. And I panic, I freeze. What are you supposed to do in this situation? I’m not exaggerating when I tell you, it was two minutes of p***.”

After “flapping around” paralysed with embarrassment – and taking a couple of quick photos of the soggy crime scene – ‘so his girlfriend could laugh at him’ – Greg said he spoke to two women on the train who happened to be dog owners. Greg said, after desperately asking “What can I do here? they told him “There’s nothing you can do”.
Greg tried in vain to clean up the “lake” of pee by getting some toilet paper from the loo in the train but he couldn’t get enough tissue to soak it all up. At the end of the saga, Greg and Barney just had to get off the South Western Railway train, which started at London Waterloo and was due to terminate in Portsmouth – leaving their smelly puddle to ferment in the carpet destined for Hampshire. “It’s not like I can get off and get some cleaning fluids because it’s a train, they’re off to Portsmouth,” Greg said.
He then spoke to a conductor on the platform and was “very apologetic” as he told him about the mess. “What do you do in this situation? I feel terrible for the person who’s got to clean it. Sorry for anyone on South Western trains this afternoon who saw that – that was my dog. Is there anything I can do to make up for this? That is a bad day. Yes he’s a good boy but he is a massive bag of p***.”
