Little Britain is bollocks

I think the main oversight in series 3, is the fact that they could have made the old lady that pisses meet the old lady that vomits and they could have done a double-act of piss and vomit...............that would have been funny!

Reminds me of Mark and Lard on Radio Ones lunchtime show a few years ago - the first few times I heard them I thought they were brilliant and I laughed like hell at their sketches but after a few times it just became repetitive and boring and the same happens here.

I didnt watch any of the first two series when they were on BBC but caught some on UK Gold on the advice of mates and yeah the first couple of times it raised a laugh but after that its just the same thing with one or two little things changed and that just isnt funny. I watched the second episode of the new series the other night and I might have sniggered once and thats it - its a real pity that greed stops people from walking away from a good thing while its at the top like they did with Fawlty Towers, for example.

When Little Britain first aired on the radio it was much more satirical and had a no catchprases rule. Once again, money changes everything.

Yes, but if we recorded it, we would be put in prison for being in possession of obscene material.

Dick Emery was far, far superior to Little Britain. I especially liked the gag when he and his supposed father were about to get on the train and he asked, "Why do we always have to travel in the lavs, dad?", something I've never done! *liar! Liar!*

As for what I think of Little Britain, to be honest I too thought I was the only person that thought it was total and utter 100% crap! Give me repeats of Only Fools & Horses any time!
