Paranoid Android Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 I realised how bad sketch shows usually are, little britain is terrible and i couldn't believe that their most annoying and unfunny characters got no. 1. Still all those "old favourites" aren't up to much either, the two ronnies, morcambre and wise, terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest haigyman Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 i suppose sofeel charmed please little britain is NOT funny. JAG is right' date=' same jokes, not funny[/quote']i think i briefly met you on friday, were you standing next to rachie near the end of the bar? i probably said something about her hat.and yeah, little britain is such a "bandwagon comedy", that's why i think the sketches (or whatever is in the top 100/50) should have to be around for a while to see if they stand the test of time.

morlun Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 I think the live version of Monty Python's Petshop/ Dead parrot sketch where Michael Palin just changed it without telling anyone was worthy of number one on it's own!!!. The look on John Cleese's face when he says the parrot's dead, to which Palin replies "oh, so it is. Here's your money back, and some holiday vouchers." Priceless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardcore Mel Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 little britain wasn't worthy of being number 1, but even when you just look at the lou and andy characters, there were better sketches with them than that swimming pool one. one of the few little britain sketches that actually made me laugh was the one where he knocked over his own wheelchair and then blamed it on the other blokes new bird.

Dead_Fashion Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 yeh i totally agree that sketch was far better... theres the one where andy kicks a ball into a tree or something like that its good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
