Customer Reviews

Great special
I watched this when it was on PBS a few months back, in fact, during the show I whipped out my laptop and went to Amazon to search for it. It wasn't there, but I'm so glad BBC decided to release it. Hosted by Lenny Henry, it highlights the best of all my favorite British comedy actors, including John Cleese, Richard Briers, and John Inman. Great purchase, well worth it, will have you remembering all those great moments watching britcoms.

I was tricked by this one
The DVD is just a presentation where a speaker talks about different shows of the British Comedy. I was expecting to see a presentation and then the complete shows, but instead they are just small parts (a few seconds) of the mentioned shows.

this dvd is bloody brillant for all britcom luvers!
