Gimme, Gimme, Gimme Series 2 is quite simply the ongoing, chaotic adventures of one over the top tart (Kathy Burke) and one perennially lonely gay guy (James Dreyfus) who happen to share both a flat in London and a yearning lust for whatever luckless man happens to cross their paths! This release includes all the episodes from Series 2, plus the Millennium Special.

The second and best series of Gimme Gimme Gimme should rank among TV's hall of great comedy moments. Burke and Dreyfuss are never better than they are here, delivering all of the jokes with perfect chemistry and timing.
I'm delighted to hear that this DVD also includes the special episode, 'Millennium'. This is one of the series' funniest, and it basically consists of Linda and Tom spending a New Years Eve alone in the flat. But Burke and Dreyfuss are so fantastic and their characters so well defined that it works brilliantly. The series proper gets going with 'Teacher's Pet', an hysterical episode featuring Elaine Lordan's return as Linda's sister, Sugar. Watch out for some side-splitting scenes with Linda and a doll. 'Stiff' is a great episode involving Linda and Tom trying to make sense of a strange occurrence. 'Prison Visitor' features Phil Daniels in a brilliant guest role as an ex-con. 'Dirty Thirty' is simply fantastic, and Tom's parents are an absolute riot. 'Glad To Be Gay?' is, in my humble opinion, the best ever episode of the series. Moya Brady guests stars in this masterpiece episode of British comedy. 'Sofa Man' is not quite up to the standards of the other episodes but is still hysterical, featuring possibly James Dreyfuss' best performance as Tom.
It's hard to fault this series. Buy it, keep it, treasure it forever. You'll laugh so much it'll hurt!

If you liked the first and third series of Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie, then this Dvd is a must buy! Credit as always goes out to the fantastically funny James Dreyfus and Kathy Burke who star as camp flatmates Tom and Linda,but full credit goes to the brilliant creator and writer Jonathan Harvey.
Episodes include DIRTY THIRTY where Tom finds out his mum and dad are swingers.STIFF the dead body in the coffin and who can forget the episode PRISON VISITOR where Linda sits on the rubber ring lol.I laughed so much I could hardly get my words out.
The beauty of the Gimmie series is that you will still be laughing days or even weeks later. BUY IT!!!!!!

This is without a doubt the funniest of the 3 series.
Brilliantly funny, completely UN-politically correct and filthy.
One of the best and underated comedies of the last 5 years.
7 episodes including the Millenium special (which starts with a very funny dream party sequence with a cameo by Melinda Messenger!).
The only criticism - no extras! I would love to have seen out-takes from this series (there are no extras on any of the DVD's).
