DVD Description
‘Firmly established as a jewel in the BBC's comedy crown..’ The Daily Mail
“It remains by a long distance the finest mainstream British sitcom of recent years...’ The Guardian
Herein lies all four series and the 2009 Christmas special of Britain’s favourite comedy series, Outnumbered. That’s four school years of spookily familiar and often bafflingly surreal family dilemmas, traversed by Pete and Sue Brockman and their brood.
From the seemingly innocent, “can I have a biscuit?” to progressive theological debate, “what would Jesus do if someone stole his mobile?” Outnumbered has redefined the family comedy by bringing it closer to home.
2009 Christmas Special
“It's Boxing Day in the Brockman household and Santa has paid a visit, along with some burglars. While Mum and Dad try to maintain some festive spirit, Ben wreaks havoc with a mechanical hand, Jake argues the case for pirated music and Karen is busy writing New Year’s resolutions - not for herself, but for the rest of the family, and Barack Obama.
Special Features
Series 1: Interviews with the cast, Andy Hamilton & Guy Jenkin
Series 2: Comic Relief Special, Out-takes, Extended Scenes, Deleted Scenes
Series 3: The Making of Series 3, The ‘Real’ Outnumbered, Sport Relief Sketch
Series 4: Alternative Scenes, Deleted Scenes and Comic Relief Sketch

This is brilliant all the way. Never a dull moment, and I'm in awe of the three young actors. Delightful.

It is a really great show. Very funny at times with great irony and a bit of social comment. You can almost imagine yourself as part of the family.

Content delightful, but ...
... the CDs Amazon sent were (still are, in fact) incomplete and the disks I did receive are defective - two or three episodes on each disk are unwatchable.

We bought Outnumbered box set after moving to Australia - these DVD's remind us BBC sitcoms are far better than Aussie TV. Read more

Outnumbered - as far as it can go.
