Anyone see the first of the new series of Little Britain last night... hilarious! Every time I thought "they can't... they won't", well, they could and they did! Bubbles de Veere... EWWWWWWWW!!!

Now why can't they show good humor shows like that here instead of those stupid reality shows...
Makes me wish I had satellite tv so I can watch all the British shows! And erm... if Bubbles is the one in pink on the BBC web site.. I second Debs'.. Ewwwwww!

The one in pink is probably Vicki Pollard... 'yeah but, no but, just shut up, you wasn't even there..."
Do you have a multi-region DVD player m'dear?

DVD drive for computer is my next major purchase since I am still on archaic VHS! My old tv isn't set up to take a DVD player, that and my comp screen is a couple of inches bigger than the tv so for now that's the game plan.

Our local computer shop sells dvd drives for £29 and dvd re-writers for £39.. they haven't half come down in price recently..they were £140 last year.It's amazing how much stuff you can store on one disk.. treat yourself smile.gif

For anyone who can't get to see Little Britain on TV or DVD, there is a book of scripts available:

As well as the audio book

league of gentlemen is the best comedy for a while, so with (can't remember which one) editing the scripts for little britain (certainly the first series), how can you go wrong...
Oh, and my favourite character returned last night ;) EH, EH, EEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH... the "lovely" Anne has returned.

Tom Baker's last line this week nearly made me choke... don't laugh hysterically while eating pasta. In fact, don't eat at all while watching Little Britain!

I succumbed and bought the first series of Little Britain... but have so far resisted the urge to watch all episodes at once!

That is a terrible thing to say Madame Goth, my chat up lines are no way that cheesy or sleazy.
I'm terribly upset now I can't believe you've seen a resemblance between me and some Northern fool who thinks chatting up woman is the only thing in............ blush.gif ahh well, at least I'm not from Bolton
