'Little Brexit' episode for Radio 4 in October 2019.]

It will probably be a lot more watered down these days and I never found it funny first time around

[Liam-]

It was awful the first time, why?

[Crimson Dynamo]

i wonder if Walliams will be resurrecting his Blackface Character in this Woke culture?

[arista]

No LT
thats one they could not do now

Because they did a one off Radio 4
show, and because of the feedback
they are going back in TV.


Liam - Give it a chance
they have said it can not be like the 2005 series



If its Funny
why not.

They could not get away with this now, i dont know how the show will work as all they did was poke fun at minorities, trans/gay folks?

Meh, not a fan of David Walliams, Matt Lucas is pretty funny though. Can't say im interested in a Little Britain reboot. I think the show is too stupid to be considered offensive though.

I agree. It’s for At is much more universal as well and could be more easily adapted into the 2020 industry.

I loved little britain back in the day

they wont be able to get away with as much now though.. part of what made it so funny was how un-PC it was

[Jigs]

This has no place back on TV tbh. I am positive it will flop.

[Zizu]

I always thought the highlights were far overshadowed by the rubbish

Airways in to many problems.



Little Britain has a broader
amount of Sketches , possible.

I remember Matt saying a few years ago how he'd never get away with Fat Fighters nowadays, and that was one of the more tamer sketches

Fat Fighters is one of the few they probably could still get away with. It worked because Matt himself was fat, that was the joke... it was self-deprecating humour, more than mocking others.

A lot of the other sketches did cross the line between satire and outright mocking, though.
