    I saw the first 6 episodes of it before and have to say it is very enjoyable. the radio versions is good as well.

    Favourite sketch has to be lou and andy, "Whats that for?" "It's so you can do toilet by yourself" " Yea, I know!"

    I love Little Britain, try and tune in BBC3 if you have sky digital, BBC3 make some really great programs. Pity they repeat them over and over though.

    Yeah I Know!

    lol

    It's great, I can't help but say "Yeah I know" at every single opportunity now.

    The Scottish hotel guy is hilarious too, as is Kelsey Grammer school!

    Funniest programme on TV at the moment, I reckon, and funniest sketch show since Jam.

    They do? What characters? The only one I can think of that slightly resembles TLOG is the Scottish hotel manager..

    its absolutely brilliant, love that show and george doors(sp?)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Am I the only person who thinks its just incredibly bad?

    I watched it last night, and just didn't laugh at all.
    Which is strange, because I absolutely love scetch shows.
    The Fast Show, and The League Of Gentlemen were far superior shows altogether.

    And that git has the worst scottish accent I've ever heard in my life.
    If you're going to make fun of something, at least try and get it right.

    I don't think we'll ever have another "Hello Dave!"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    only saw it for the first time last night
    its the first time in ages iv laughed out loud at the tv


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 919 ✭✭✭timeout


    Tis brilliant. Just wish I could watch the thing from start to finish without someone in the house changing the channel. Should smack them and make them watch it so they know how funny it is.:D

    Thank Jesus! I thought I was the only one. I honeslty can't understand why so many people, people with taste similar to mine, not idiots, you understand, why so many people are smitten with this. Out of the three episodes I've seen, the only times I've laughed are at one or two of Tom Baker's Dr Who gags. And the first time I saw "Kelsey Grammar School", that was good.

    Some of the characters are quite good, but it's all rather repetitive, and too slow paced and obvious to do the whole "he said his catchphrase! Brilliant!" thing the Fast Show pulled off. It's a million miles from the League of Gentlemen, too. Same director, though. I can't quite understand why I mentioned that.

    Hmmm, I think it's brilliant. Only saw two episodes though.
