I'm overdosing on Brit comedy
 

My dear old brother has just sent us 3 DVD's over (Just about makes up for all the food he ate whilst here!!).

Got League of Gentlemen seris 1 & 2 and The Fast Show series 1. Due to crappy NZ Tv watching them every night!!! Bliss.

On order for my birthday more Fast Show and some Alan Partridge.



Are you local?

Don't know what your talking about :D . Are you saying that youve had less time on your hands since you got the DVD's :D

The problem is now Hubby and I keep exchanging 1 liners off the shows which nobody else understands and falling about laughing.
Getting some funny looks.


You ain't seen me ......right!

have only just kicked the habit!!! cool shows tho. cant believe they didnt get them here.

Anyone found Cheesy Peas available down here?

No, don't think it's been shown, try here for what is available (i.e. been shown by ABC):

Ah but I bet you'll only get the old style ones. The UK has them in the plastic bottle

"Squeezy Cheezy Peas"

BRILLIANT

WOW. We really are behind the times here.

Today I shall mostly be wearing a flanno.

"How could one resist", What did I say Roy??

Been coming out with these one liners since 1995 when I was back in the UK. Been comedy deprived in Oz since 1997 and going back to live in the UK next year. Which was nice!

Do try www.blackstar.co.uk for ordering videos to Australia and NZ, used them for a good few years and they are BRILLIANT! Great line of vids in British Comedy.

Bootross, Bootross, Gahli of however it is said!

The best of the two ronnies (box set)
My Family
Coupling
Alan Partridge
Fast show
