Synopsis
This collection features all three series of Matt Lucas and David Walliams' phenomenally successful sketch show. Characters like the teenage chav Vicky Pollard, Sebastian the Prime Minister's aide, Lou and Andy, and Dafydd; the only gay in the village have since entered British pop culture and Little Britain has fast become one of the BBC's most popular and imitated comedies.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best, 8 Jan 2007
If you've seen Little Britain on TV then you don't need any reassurance when thinking about purchasing the DVD box set. If you haven't seen it on TV, THEN GO BUY IT! You know what your getting plus there are all the extras. One i found useful is that you can watch a whole season of one act e.g. watch 12 Lou and Andy scenes in a row.

1.0 out of 5 stars Synopsis: Write one joke, repeat endlessly over three series. , 15 Oct 2008
Mash & Peas and Rock Profile showcased what genuine talents Lucas and Walliams are. Little Britain is the tagic, wasted opportunities both have become. While season one was sporadically enjoyable, two and three descended into the very worst kind of British comedy, pandering to the lowest common denominator (sadly now the majority) with catchphrase-comedy - cheap, lazy writing essentially portraying exactly the same joke with next to no progression or development, just minor situational alterations in each episode. Just to exacerbate things, many of the jokes aren't in the least bit funny in the first place, and several are actually quite dubious and one could argue racist. Irony is an art, not an excuse. When all else fails, Lucas and Walliams opt for bad language to get the inevitably laugh from their audience, most of whom wouldn't know well written, sophisticated comedy at all.

Little Britain is a waste of two very funny people and further adds to the decaying state of British comedy. That it became so popular says it all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Baaaaaaaarilliant, 31 Dec 2006
By M. Convey "mark29355" - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Okay, so you either like it or you loathe it. I am personally not keen on every single character, however, each one is well executed and observed, whether people would like to agree or not (i guess that is the point - they pick on topics and characteristics which most people try to avoid or play down).

This box set is a great idea for gifts and for those people who have not previously bought any of the other DVDs so far, plus you can always skip the bits you don't like and watch the bits you do as many times as you like.

It doesn't make you a sheep if you truly like David Walliams and Matt Lucas's work.

Utter rubbish! Little Britain cannot live up to the standards of British comedy such as The Two Ronnies, Monty Python and That Michell and Webb Look.
