You'd be surprised. Moving to Amsterdam and living in the international student dorms, the thing that I couldn't believe was everyone, upon seeing my Little Britain DVDs, wanted to borrow them as they'd seen an episode or two and wanted to see the whole thing. I'm talking people from Spain, Greece, Iceland, Norway, Mexico and fellow Americans. The show really is becoming bigger than the UK.

Ok, maybe here in sweden that we are happely unknown

but still 'sven Goran haters'

This is Great News DAVID WALLIAMS and his Little Britain sidekick MATT LUCAS have played Neil and Chris before so I see nothing wrong with this as an Idea.
This will be something to look forward to in the New Year.

It wont be aimed at people outside of the U.K though. It's purely a publicity stunt to give PSB a kick start with a big hit.

Also, people here are taking in the bullshit that the journalist wrote. There is only 1 gay sketch in Little Britain out of about 30 different characters. Little Britain is not a camp show but it is the biggest program on t.v right now by a street. Just look at what impact Peter Kay appearing in the Amarillo video had.

Dave

To be perfectly honest I would like them to had the song to an advertising company and the ad company do a video for them.

How can ANYONE be negative about this news? This is absolutely the BEST idea. Little Britain is THE most popular comedy program on British television. Lou and Andy in the video will sell loads of record. I imagine the song will be great as it's Trevor 'genius' Horn's production. This is going to be HUGE!!!

The Sun give comics a bad name, however why make up a story like this? NICE ONE PSB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

If you watch PSB performing "Liberation" on Top of the Pops back in 1994, who should be hamming it up in the front row of the audience but a camp, be-suited David "Williams" Walliams. And who's that behind him? A lumberjack-shirted young Mr. Lucas, desperately trying to "dance"...

Whatever we think of the show, they are real fans. Indeed I imagine Mr Walliams is probably one of us...

Maybe I have missed something, but, is this confirmed? It seems that that shity paper isn't the best source.

I loved flamboyant and it's video. One of my all time fab. A pitty that it wasn't more tv played. :/

I guess I'll just listen the songs then....

Was that really him i always remember that bloke in the crowd and thinking god he worships them.

I after dig out my top of the pops again of it now

Y'know I've never seen the videos for Miracles and Flamboyant...

What a stroke of marketing genius, I say! Matt Lucas and david Walliams appearing in the video will certainly make people interested in the video and may lead onto better things... I believe they once did a short Pet Shopy Boys sketch on their Rock Profile show, so my guess would be Matt and David will appear as there own version of PSB... I expect a humourous video (and possibly a mega tune to go with it!)

Definitely same here in Luxembourg...I work for an international institution and indeed my Little britain DVDs have already been seen by English, Swedish, French, Belgian colleagues and everybodys liked it.
I do think this is a great news...if confirmed

I really can't believe that people had already forgotten about this:

David Walliams, Matt Lucas and a 'large male child' in the audience at TOTP while PSB perform "Liberation"
