I see it dominated the british comedy awards, how depressing, a program which is about as fun as finding out you have TB, cancer and AIDS and running your own personal sweepstake on which will kill you first.No offence but this programme is moronic. I am not sensitive to this kind of thing, but they get away with a lot, I wouldn't mind if it was actually relatively funny. Hahahahahaha we will try and take the pisss out of disabled people in the least funny way possible whilst spawning the most stupid and annoying catchphrases ever. If you want to make humour of of the situations at least make it vaguely funny, Timargh in south park is pretty amusing and is related to the same subject matter, thats because they try to actually be funny and slapstick rather than constantly see how much they can get away with.
At what point did screaming "i'm the only gay in the village" make for hilarious viewing? pure bull.
the only thing in little britain i ever at anypoint found amusing was the pikey girl. It was related well to real life and was done pretty well and was amusing the first time you saw it, maybe even the second time. But after that its limited comical value was worn out.
I appreciate that the BBC feels obliged to waste as much of the licence fee as it humanly can, and that bigging up little britain in some way seems to justify the existence of BBC 3, but lets be honest it is bullcrap of the highest order.
I am more than happy to watch mindless crap, low budget productions, hardly any subject is taboo with me, I am a pisshead student for godsake! but this has to be the most over rated programme in the history of television, not clever, not witty, and shitte. those awards better not have been voted for, otherwise this country is in a worse state than i thought (and i am an optimist!)

Heh.
BBC chiefs have been forced to edit award-winning comedy Little Britain after complaints from the Women's Institute.
The WI claimed scenes with characters Judy and Maggie portrayed the organisation as racist and homophobic.
One in particular showed the bigoted pair in front of a WI banner. When Judy tells Maggie a gay or non-white person made her food she vomits.
Show producers were forced to remove the WI sign when the show was repeated on BBC1.
A WI spokesman said: "We don't mind comedians having a laugh at the WI and the jam-making image.
"But we had to draw the line at any implication our members are homophobic. It was damaging and hurtful to our members."

I wanted little britain to win. I also wanted The office. The other one was crap and dumb. Also, I wanted shawn of the dead to win.|School of rock sucked. But shawn of the dead kicked butt.
Comedy is funny when its different or clever. Little Britain and Bo Selecta caught on becoz they were different, but they're not any more.
Typical of the BBC, LB gets some attention so they flog it to death. Thats all u ever hear about, how great Little Britain is. I'm sick of it
Something like The Office, thats clever, you can watch that in 10 years time and it'll still be funny.
Monkey Dust I like. The Smoking Room wasn't bad. Early Doors. 15 Storeys High. The BBC shod hype these up rather than something as dire as LB

Meh, probably did. Such is the way the net can twist words.

I've never even seen Little Britain once.
I was laughing at the way you were talking, you sounded like an old man or a Daily mail reading prude.

Little Britain was good to start with, but I feel that it has already become stale and it can be a chore to watch.
