Little Britain Live
Went to see this last night in the New Theatre, Oxford.
Bloody brilliant.
Obviously you have to have seen the TV series to get the jokes and stuff and who the characters are.
They did all the well known ones including the vomiting woman and the pissing woman, Daffyd, Lou and Andy, Bubbles, the shop keeper and Mr Man, Kenny Craig, Emily Howard, fat club, Ann and many more!
They did two 45 minute shows with a 20 minute gap in the middle and I was thoroughly entertained for my £27.
My fave bit was Kenny Craig, the hypnotist, who at one point he went up to the front of the stage and asked the audience to look into his eyes, not around the eyes (click) you're under! At the end of the show you will feel compelled to go and buy a Kenny Craig T-shirt from the merchandise stall. They haven't sold as well as the others but you'll want one anyway, 3,2,1 you're back in the room....
The official programmes were a bit steep at a tenner though. Didn't stop me forking out though. I now have a mouse mat with the legend, Computer says no!

Incidentally, there's some Little Britain podcasts on iTunes for free if anyones interested.
I'm just listening to one of them. Couple of spods in a shed but worth a listen
EDIT: Now I've actually listened to it, don't bother
The guy is so utterly dead pan, even saying things like 'and it was very funny indeed', he'll put you off LB for life. Wonder if it's Mr Mann in disguise!
