A good friend of mine is visiting from DUB and told me about the 2nd series and was telling me about the new characters, I just LOVE the show and look forward to watching next weeks episode. It must be hard I imagine for people who aren't english who don't know who the guest stars are? I had to explain to my partner who Vannessa Feltz was and Daffydd's 'mum' was etc.

I still reckon Majorie Dawes as a in-charge crew member would be.....well you can imagine! As for Mrs De Vere as the woman at the health farm....never saw THAT coming, hilarious, I reckon series 2 will be a bit more risque.

Just about everyone I know watches it including my mother who's 70.

I agree it would be great to see a cabin crew based sketch

Love it love it love it,

But even I was SHOCKED when at the health farm she disrobed and flaunted everything. I did't see that coming or expect that on free to air tv. I didn't know whether to look or cover my eyes. I just cracked up in hysterics. The talent is brilliant, fresh and extremely funny. I always prefered the Brit humour to the American crap we always seem to get. This show rocks. I think I'll have to learn a few lines cause I'm bloody sick of the Kath and Kym lines that keep on coming out of the mouths of my fellow crew. Kath and Kym rock too by the way. The best Aussie comedy in a long time.

We did it first in Scotland of course ... A series called 'The High Life' featuring the cabin crew of Air Scotia .... a Captain wired to the moon, one Chief Stewardess who was a dragon, one steward who was a wimp, and one who was gay. Great comedy

Although since it was 1994 ... I show my age

OMG The High Life we got a few episodes here in Oz relegated to the 0145 timeslot but I can still remember the FA in the best glaswegian (?) accent screaming irately at insolent passenger "SIT DEWN!!!!!" hahaha. Best cabin crew sketch since Steve Vizard in Comedy Co.

But yes, Little Britain series 2 is finally showing down under and never has there been such raw uninhibted comedy consistantly hitting the mark.

Daffyd> Rhiannon? Rhiannon! How far have you gone with this ... Rhiannon?
Myfanwy> Just a bit of fanny fun.
Daffyd> (gasp) Can I have a large brandy please Miss Fitzwilliams?
Myfanwy> Look Daffyd I gotta go only Rhiannon's minge is going to get cold.

This stuff gets me on the floor! Can see there are some UK-local jokes we Aussies aren't going to get (the PM/Sebastian one really doesnt cut it) but 90% is best-ever comedy.

Talking Over the top

Dear God!

Last night in AU, series 2, episode 2 Daffyd at the Gay and lesbian stall.
The vicar comes along and is joined moments later by his boyfriend, all the while an elderly lady is picking up all sorts off the table and enquiring.
What she said at the end, What that Daffyd needs vicar...
Had us on the floor! hysterical

Duff Man -
The Steve Vizard thing... Is that the two flight attendants Daryl and Wayne? They crack me up! I have a few skits on DVD. Wish I had them all - they are too funny!

I LOVE(!) the School Girl skits on Little Britain. "But no, but yeh, but no, but yeh... But you see..." My favourite is in Series 1 where she and her friends are trying to get drinks at the pub. After all attempts fails she says "Well it doesn't matter anyway because we have one of these... (sniffs glue) Come on girls this place is rubbish..."

fourplay -
I missed this week in OZ... What is the thing with the Vicar?

I love Little Britain It's Hilarious .. my favourite english comedy after the office.

What about Anne patient in the Stephen Speilburg Hospital with an unintelligable "Eh-eh-eh" "Eh... eh... eh"

The funniest thing when her mobile rings she suddenly becomes very normal and asks the caller "Can I call you back, I'm just in the middle of something"

it cracks me up wen she is gardenin and actin wierd and then her mobile rings and then she act all normal

Good Bile Lads and " Eh eh eh eh "

Big "Eh eh eh eh .. from Arabiya to all Anne fans out there

Cheers
