Little Britain - Series 2

Thursday, April 10th, 2008 by Book Guy | No Comments »

Little Britain - Series 2

The complete second series from BBC Radio 4 includes over thirty minutes of bonus material: an exclusive interview with Matt Lucas and David Walliams, unbroadcast scenes and outtakes, and an A-Z interactive on-screen Character Guide

‘Surreal joy’ The Guardian

‘Britain, Britain, Britain, land of technological achievement - we have had running water for over ten years. But what of the people of Britain? It is those people we look at today… ‘

Thanks to the comic genius of Matt Lucas and David Walliams, the writers and stars of Little Britain, we’ve all asked a friend to look into my eyes’, or proclaimed ‘I’m a lady!’ to a colleague, or even suddenly announced ‘I am the only gay in this village’. Here, complete and uncut, are all four episodes of the second radio series.

Featuring Tom Baker’s nonsensical narration, among those well-known and well-loved characters that make up Little Britain are Marjorie Dawes, Kenny Craig, Dennis Waterman, Sebastian and the incomparably incoherent Vicky Pollard.

For this audio, both stars have helped garner over thirty minutes of exclusive extras that include outtakes and sketches that have never been broadcast - as well as a specially recorded interview with Matt and David.

Winner of a Sony Radio Academy Award, it’s no wonder this series was described by Heat magazine as ‘comedy ecstasy, even without pictures’.
