 Lucas fears that soon there may be no Little Britain fans in the village Although the pair have no immediate intentions to quit
churning out episode after episode of catchphrase-based comedy, Little
Britain
creators Matt Lucas and David Walliams have annouced that even they
have grown weary of the show's repetitious, endlessly quoted toilet
humour. "It's a dilemma, because we're sick to death of it, but it's
just so lucrative," Lucas said. "The BBC keeps asking us to do more,
and we say yeah, but no, but yeah, but no. But then they wave even more
money at us, and we say yeah."
"We were struggling to find a catchphrase for our new
character Dame Mondas," said Lucas. "She's an upper-class old lady with a bit
of an odour problem. I was looking for more of a ‘How's your Aunt doing?',
while David wanted something like ‘My vagina stinks.' We stared at each other
for a minute, then David sort of sighed."
"At that point, all the joy went out of it for me," explained
Walliams. "Now, whenever someone asks me to say ‘I'm a laydee!', I feel like
projectile vomiting onto a plate of biscuits. Honestly, if it wasn't for the
fame, money and endless tabloid stories linking me to Page 3 girls, I'd quit
today."
Media experts realised Little Britain had reached its
peak when retailers reported a sharp upswing in well-meaning but out-of-touch
aunties buying ‘Lou & Andy' birthday cards for their nieces and nephews.
"When a cult program gets commodified and oversaturates the market with endless
repeats and tons of merchandise, the core audience often feels betrayed," said sociology
professor Anthony Cooper. "Plus, there are only so many times you can watch a
fat man ponce around in a string vest."
Upon realising how fed up they were with their creation,
Lucas and Walliams decided to put the show on hiatus. "We took random sketches
from past shows and packaged them together for broadcast while we took a
break," said Lucas. "No-one noticed."

Fantastic!!! I never thought I'd see my own hate for Little Britain be portrayed so eloquently.
Me too.
Although I have a bit of a 'thing' for the tall guy, the show is shit.
