The first episode of the new series of Little Britain - wasn't as funny as the first series, but I enjoyed it nevertheless. They got rid of the Scottish mad man (who I loved, just for the "Yeeeeeeeeeees!" catchphrase)...but here's some of the new characters. Bubbles - lives at the health spa and gets away with not paying for it. In last nights episode - she took off her towel to the spa owner and you could see everything. I know it's a fat suit, but still... Harvey - Harvey is a well-heeled young man with the classic car, the cravat, the family home in the country, and he's introducing his new fiancée to his posh parents.It was actually pretty disgusting. A 30 year old son still being breast-fed? It was funny, in some kind of gross way! Judy and Maggie - the W.I ladies. It did actually remind me of some of the middle-class ladies in my village David Walliams' character kept puking after finding out that a jam or sponge, etc was made by someone with a "distasteful" manner... Emily Howard has a new "lady" friend this time around, called Florence. I found them hilarious The Vicky Pollard sketch was also funny, because it's just so true! Why do British people find men in drag so funny?

Thanks for that! Little Britain is the only thing worth getting BBC 3 for. I preferred the lenny hendry version of Vicky Pollard though, a rip-off, but a good one.
The best british comedy ever has to be trigger happy tv, buy the dvd's and laugh constantly for three hours! The american version was pretty good too.
Ok, british comedies I don't like... Any piece of crud on ITV that calls itself a comedy, like 'barbara' or 'hardware', they are as boring as their names, also 'bognor or bust' is nowhere near as good as 'have I got news for you'.

I downloaded the new episode of Little Britain and watched it. oh my god it’s more funnier and ruder then ever! I have never laughed and scream so hard on some of the scene that were really funny.

Bubbles - lives at the health spa and gets away with not paying for it. In last nights episode - she took off her towel to the spa owner and you could see everything. I know it's a fat suit, but still... Bubble might be my new fave character. Oh my god that scene makes me cringed but it was so funny. I’m surprise that they showed it at around 9pm? Harvey - Harvey is a well-heeled young man with the classic car, the cravat, the family home in the country, and he's introducing his new fiancée to his posh parents.
It was actually pretty disgusting. A 30 year old son still being breast-fed? It was funny, in some kind of gross way! Hehe that scene was really funny. I couldn’t stop laughing till the scene has finished Judy and Maggie - the W.I ladies. It did actually remind me of some of the middle-class ladies in my village
David Walliams' character kept puking after finding out that a jam or sponge, etc was made by someone with a "distasteful" manner... Ewww the scenes were horrible. Next time they not I am not going to eat any food nice to see Vicky Pollard, Lou and Andy, Sebastian and Daffyd again -----------------

Clicky
If no-one's heard of this, it's a spot-on parody of the 70's/80's Science For Schools programmes, and written by/starring Peter (Duane Benzie) Serafinowicz, and Robert Popper. Yeah watched the DVD at you house and I thought the program was really funny. Yeah I am going to watch the second series when it comes out. -----------------

What a way for them to end Green Wing. I thought that was the best episode out oh the lot. Some scenes were funny and shocking. -----------------

Juliet: Yes funny, not that shocking though... "Sheeeeeeeeeep!" Hopefully they'll repeat them on E4 (what are the odds? )

That would be Sue White. one of the best characters ever along with Alan (Mark Heap)

You can't choose her! She hasn't got a fanny!
One of the more quotable lines from the episodes.
Along with:
She's my schmoo!
The bits with Guy in Sue Whites office are obviously improvised, when he's impersonating her. (It's a piece of piss, this job.)
Also, i'd say that Guy delivered the best line in the whole series, to Sue White:
You know what I like about you? Fuck all.

Max & Paddy are the doorman from the Phoenix Club. In the final episode of Phoenix Nights, they head off in a camper van, hence the spin-off series.
I think it's missing Dave Spikey's writing. Personally. But it was not bad.

Do that, nothing beats the episode with the psychic.
Max & Paddy has potential, but Kay needs to make up with Spikey and do another Phoenix Nights.

A mate let me borrow his copy of Big Train, series 1 & 2.
I was always a fan of the International Stare-Out Championships, but there's loads of fantastic sketches. Amelia Bullmore and Julia Davis are criminally underused in Series One, perhaps the main reason they didn't return for S2 (The Florence Nightingale sketch on Ep6 of S1 is brilliant - Amelia Bullmore steals the series with that one.)
Pegg, Heap and Eldon are great too. I particularly love Simon Pegg's Braveheart (I may have a tiny pony!).
I'm working my way through S2 at the moment.

I like Max and Paddy a lot. Tonight’s episode was well funnier then the last weeks episode. I laugh my head off when Paddy was gone to appear in a porn movie but didn’t know it was a gay one. Hehe liked the name “Willy Wanker” I liked Max story on when he fall in love with a girl in his past. Very touching. I feel sorry for that guy. I watched the full episode of Peep Show for the first time and I thought it was really good. -----------------

I like coupling but it's not as good now Jeff's left to go to Lesbos. Also I like My parents are aliens. It's a kids show but it's still funny.

My parents are aliens is fantastic, I think the writers are trying to see how much they can get away with on childrens tv.

Dear god is it possible there's something Juliet doesn't like. I'm liking peep show the most at the moment, but thats not saying that much Amelia Bullmore and Julia Davis are criminally underused in Series One,
As Graham linehan confesses to like a hundred times on the commentary. My favourite has to be the "new office manager" sketch "no way you must be joking that guy is a wanker" but the most underused must surely be arthur matthews " I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU, YOU BOLLOCKS, YOU BOLLOCKS AHHGG"
