Amazon.com Little Britain: The Complete Second Series furthers David Williams and Matt Lucas's often-inspired, wickedly funny explorations of life in the British Isles. The six episodes found in this two-disc set hammer mercilessly and usually hilariously on a handful of recurring sketch ideas, with the occasional one-off experiment thrown in for good measure. Among the best bits is a running "Fat Fighters" storyline, in which Lucas (who, along with Williams, plays women perhaps better than any other British comedian in television history) portrays the horribly demoralizing leader of a weight-loss franchise, ridiculing her clients, sabotaging their relationships, and broadly hinting that one woman who won a lottery should share her earnings. Williams is at the center of a pair of savagely satiric storylines (with chapters in each episode), one in which he plays a flamboyantly gay, very uncivil servant assisting Britain's prime minister (Anthony Head), and a more shocking narrative of an upper-class, groom-to-be whose poor fiancee watches him demand "bitty" from his mother--"bitty" being code for breastfeeding. Meanwhile, Lucas is wonderful as a young homosexual who insists he's the only gay in his small town in the English countryside, despite much evidence (including the presence of a gay vicar and his leather-clad lover) to the contrary. There's much more, and all snarkily narrated by actor Tom Baker, known to many as the fourth incarnation of Dr. Who. Williams and Lucas's commentary track for each episode is a kick, too. --Tom Keogh

Its quirky off-kilter characters have quickly become British national treasures garnering numerous accolades including three BAFTAs (UK equivalent to Emmys) and double gold at the prestigious Rose d'Or of Lucerne (Europe's highest comedy award). With the second season comes a host of new characters as well as returning favorites. Unconvincing transvestite Emily Howard has a new friend Vicky Pollard is still butchering the English language; and an assortment of new oddities are on exhibit including Bubbles De Vere Carol "Computer Says No" Beer and and Harvey Pincher who has an unusually strong attraction to his mother. transvestite. Then there's Andy sitting all day in his wheelchair painstakingly looked after by Lou who has no idea his friend can walk. Little Britain presents the breathtaking debris of modern life in all its glory.Running Time: 180 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 794051251923 Manufacturer No: E2519

Little Britain Season 2 February 18, 2008 Little Britain is a very funny series. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is into "British" humor a la Monty Python...
Best of the best for British comedy November 26, 2007 This series is hilarious! The characters are funny, witty, and very memorable. If you like Kids in the Hall and Monty Python, you'll love this. This series is, in my opinion, the best of the three.
Watch at your own risk! August 15, 2007 I can see clearly now how these two have taken British 'toffee-nosed' culture and so tastefully turned it upside down!
Kudos to them and their brilliance.
If you are offended, laugh. It's really the best medicine for your condition. :-)
Unbelievably Funny and Raunchy August 9, 2007 If you have seen any of the skits from the first season, this dvd will be impossible to live without. (As is the third season!) It is racy, raunchy, disgusting, and, at times, truly unappealing to watch (you know this already if you are fans of Bubbles DeVere). But you will love every minute. Just be sure the people you watch it with truly understand and love you BEFORE they watch it.
Fast shipping, great product! July 13, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This product was shipped very quickly, received in great condition, and was exactly what I ordered. Couldn't ask for a better transaction!
