You've got to hand it to James Corden and his team of writers. Although they've pumped out a huge number of sketches over the last few years, they're still coming up with fresh ideas.
Even if some of those ideas are a little outside the box.
In the video above, James Corden is faced with a variety of situations where he's forced to break bad news to people. And whenever his falteringly polite Britishness fails him, he calls on Usher. The singer bursts onto the scene as the lights dim and the music starts, ready with amended versions of his own hits that have been tailor-made for the exact situation.
It's a truly ridiculous idea for a sketch, but somehow, it works.
