Little Britain fans will be having a laugh with Little Britain: Abroad, an hourlong escapade (plus extras) on the British comedy troupe's adventures around the world. The troupe's secret weapon: Men dressing in drag is funny in any culture. The skits take a cue from Little Britain's patron saints, Monty Python, as no bit is too silly. Planes are accidentally hijacked; madcap misunderstandings result in Vicky's being held in a Thai jail, waiting for Mum (Dawn French, in a memorable cameo) to come rescue her. One of the best skits involves an official visit from the British Prime Minister to the U.S. White House, whilst a "very special relationship" between the two countries is, shall we say, cemented. Extras include a hilarious documentary, Little Britain Down Under, and great commentary over both regular scenes and some deleted ones. You can laugh till you weep, and then learn a thing or three about how successful comedy is built. Not bad, that. --A.T. Hurley

As good as ever! (2008-02-22)
If you are a Little Britain fan then you will LOVE this.I wasn't too sure about the first show (there are 2 shows of 30 minutes each and a whole heap of extras) and found it a little "same old same old" but on watching the second show realised that it all pulled together and there were some moments in there that I did not expect, but really should have! Notably the desert island with Andy and Lou, but I won't spoil it!Love the appearance of Peter Kay as Dudley's brother. I had to look hard to see if it was really him!I hope this is not the end for the show, and await eagerly for more of Little BritaIN to add to my collection.

Hilarious! (2007-11-28)
British comedy at its best! I hope this isn't the last from the Little Britain guys.
