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?

Getting some funny looks.

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

"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!
