[MrGamerfreak333]

lines and lines and lines what do they mean

[yoginiclare]

Local People. :)

[darkaproN]

you're my wife now

[GhettoBlaster100]

We'll have no trouble here!

[GhettoBlaster100]

British comedy is ingenious. Much better than our American shit

[samj5664]

We didn't burn him!

[1MJLibrary]

I sometimes wonder if Tubbs and Edward were inspired Myra Hindley and Ian Brady, they do share a very light resemblance.

[Triplesod]

@1MJLibrary No they don't.

[simonelli2]

Their attention to detail is amazing! Everything is set up so perfectly!

[wonghunglow]

I fancy Tubbs.

[freddiezante08]

LINES and LINES and LINES and LINES and LINES and LINES and LINES!!

What do they mean??

Classic

[googlexxxxxxx]

British T.V is so overrated it's unbelievable

(Just for the record I'm British)

[petujaymz]

FAKE!

this is not real

[richcampoverde]

@petujaymz what is your problem anyone with anything about them knows its not real or maby you did at first t

[ebteam96]

@petujaymz  Duh come on

[HoosierMF]

I love the relationship between Tubbs and Edward. Tubbs has this curiosity about the outside world and almost manages to escape

[breakingstuff1]

Americans are American. The English are English. Both have flaws and both have superior parts to each other.. so there's no point bashing EITHER of those countries.

[vanblobblob]

@breakingstuff1 bloody hell you're soft!

[breakingstuff1]

@vanblobblob Seeing as I'm female, I wouldn't exactly be hard, would I?..

[HelderP1337]

...

[doodydude234]

I love the bleeding ears bit. It's so crap but so in keeping with the programme. :-)

[dazcouz]

This programme was so epic it was a huge part of my teenage years. Please bring it back!

[lukabert]

dont wanna get into this shitty american vs england arguement, but america is far superior to england, thats why we adopt their modern culture and all of our youth want to be american.

besides sooner or later china will nuke us both so doesnt really matter anyway

[algoyo]

Thanks for that Voice of Doom.

[Joey31608]

Did Tubbs do right?

[bumbledown08]

You did it beautifully tubbs!

[icecoldisaac86]

i hate america too fuck em haha.. no i dont actually god knows maybe because of the recession the government or whoever areent makin good shows so they import garbage from the u.s ... plenty of good comedians in america .. more than in britain.. i jst like british humour sometimes.. but like us shit aswell.. all good y;all

[googlexxxxxxx]

What's with all the America bashing?

[druidboy76]

It's because of ignorance and stupidity. They bash us yet they use youtube and the internet that we gave them. It's hilarious. Also, they use the lightbulbs and network cables, and operating systems we programmed. haha. talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

[googlexxxxxxx]

The internet-invented by Americans

Original carbon-filament bulb-invented by Thomas Edison (American)

What the hell are you talking about?

I'm not American, but give them credit when credits due

[Mahxirb]

Internet - Invented by Englisman

[googlexxxxxxx]

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (American) first developed the infomation sharing system from which the internet came

End of discussion

[88bluspark]

@googlexxxxxxx the Internet was first invented by British scientists at CERN as a way of easily transerring information and messages between computers.

[googlexxxxxxx]

No offense, but the earliest computer information sharing system was created by american scientists in the 1950s based on the U.S cold war defense system known as ARPANET

[ficklefiend]

Tim Berners-Lee

[bigmac100brit]

@googlexxxxxxx i dont mean to be a troll but the original carbon filament bulb was invented by humphrey davy ( an englishman) Thomas Edison only improved on it

[vanblobblob]

@googlexxxxxxx Dude, the internet was invented in Switzerland by a group of English professors.

[googlexxxxxxx]

@vanblobblob J. C. R. Licklider (who was an American) first laid the groundwork for the Internet, by developing the ICN (Intergalactic Computer Network) in 1963 or 64.

[Ayegrandlad]

@googlexxxxxxx No disrespect to Edison’s work, but I understand that electric light bulbs were first developed by Joseph Swan.

[MushroomMai]

I love Edwards and Tubbs so much :)

I miss The League of Gentlemen, I need to get my DVD's out. I used to watch the league obsessivly, I made my unlce sit through 6 hours of it in one day.... =/

Welcome to Royston Vasey- you'll never leave. :)

Possibly... no, sorry, THE best welcome to any town, ever. :)

Long live the league!<3

[theholyfather1]

I agree. Best show ever. I love it.

[MushroomMai]

Oh yes, deffinately. I havn't seen anything as strange- yet loveable on television since I fell in love with this- besides Psychoville, It was a perfect match for this Vasey series, even if it was only written by two of the gents. :) The League of Gentlemen's work is just fantastic, nothing will beat it. <3

[MANTLEBERG]

When i attended school in the 1950 s most of the teachers looked like these two, but Tubbs and Edward sound a bit more educated, but what would you expect in the Newark area ?

[andrew20781]

Its like this in the small mill town of burnley. Full of inbreds like on this clip.

[urbanking99]

Oh no it isn't. It depends on where you were brought up and the type of humour you are used and of course all the weird people that you often have to end up working with!

[mauser2007]

Our kids are gonna laugh about this, just like monty python

[dragonkilla7]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zz

[marginallymental]

i guess he covets the precious things of the shop!

[xxxxlynzxxxxx]

I THINK IT WAS WEERD

[bella77a]

Wonder if i could pick your brains.....'NO!!'

[tubbsnedward]

theres nothing for you hereeeeeeeeee!

[mirkinboy]

lines and lines and lines and lines

[naytay22]

What`s all this shouting? We`ll have no trouble here!!! Edward and Tubbs are the best!! Steve Pemberton can do no wrong what so ever-love his Pauline. Dole scum!!

[OARADIOHOLE]

I have these on DVD...must break them out again!! HILARIOUS. I sought these clips out because Little Britain reminds me of League. LB hits USA next week.

[lovepunkalways]

Little Britain took a lot fo ideas from the League. and Mark Gatiss is the script editor so...

(btw Tubbs stands for Tulip...)

[karenssoliloquy]

Leage of Gents pre date LB and I've always thought they stole many of the ideas...then again, watch Monty Python and the similarities are there too!

[michaelscreen]

Grotesque, macarbre, gothic, desperately funny and disturbing.

[goodnamewasgone]

just to be fickle but theres no door bell ringing on this one....

[howveryabsurd]

Haha

This comedy series is an odd blend of comedy and horror (this is actually the least funny part of it ive ever seen) the shop is meant to be run by inbred freaks. Watch the whole thing, there much stranger things than this

[DjGizzo]

tut i was trying to get someone to take the bait and think i was an american that goes round saying fake and grammour i was hopeing for someone to reply to what kind of shop is it? "its a local shop"

[howveryabsurd]

Damn. I had my suspicions. And i will take the bait of correcting your grammar, as i suppose you thought i might. Grammar+Hoping.

[dullahgg]

its a local shop... i win (yes i am pathetic)

[sexyhornysexy]

wehay!!!!!!!!!!!

[lovepunkalways]

Let me explain SLOWLY and CLEARLY.

This is NOT REAL. It is a COMEDY. I don't think there are many people like tubbs and Edward in REAL LIFE. got that?!

[67675656565655656565]

retard

[fletch24444]

lines and lines and lines and lines and lines

[bertere07]

i live where the leauge of gentelmen was filmed hahaha old hadfield lol

[lovepunkalways]

lucky you!

[67675656565655656565]

go back to watching your shitty american sit coms then.

[idiotscampaigninc]

too true!

all americans do is take british stuff and make it american. (americas got talent)

[davewadam]

The Office

[IFaZI]

@idiotscampaigninc

The Office. (USA)

American idol

Rear guard

Teachers (USA)

The IT crowd (USA)

I just to name a few.

Im sure they stole being human and whose line is it anyway. Oh and that 70s show. Life on mars and top gear too! and dont forget never mind the buzzcocks!

[idiotscampaigninc]

@IFaZI

and the British versions are all far better and funnier too!

[GunGraveTZA2]

@idiotscampaigninc The irony of that statement.

America's Got Talent. PFFFT.

[67675656565655656565]

@GunGraveTZA2 hahaha to true

[Brucy6666]

@idiotscampaigninc Americas got talent came first....

[Triplesod]

@Brucy6666 No it didn't. It doesn't matter anyway. The guy's talking bollocks. America absolutely slaughters us when it comes to intelligent comedy nowadays. Yeah, the US still has a lot of shit but so do we and when America gets it right, they are unbeatable right now.

[Brucy6666]

@Triplesod America's Got Talent Season 1 first aired June 21, 2006

Britian's Got Talent season 1 first aired June 9, 2007

And as for the comics in both America and England... They both have their fair share so there is no 'one is better' argument.

Oh and for future reference, don't keep switching between American and US especially when you are using the the word us in the same sentence, that is all :)

[Triplesod]

@Brucy6666 Fair enough, mate. It's a British production, though. Cowell must have chosen to open with the United States of Nations, Stateside, USA, America version.

Not using the same word twice in a sentence when it can be helped is a basic rule of writing. ;-)

[Digby1996]

I agree, America can never top the hilarity of Royston Vasey

[bowler8]

@67675656565655656565 Yes, and they are

[thisisbonkers]

best LOG charecters EVER!

[furyplum44]

Omg so funny, I love this show!

[leelinz12]

really finny ........... thank you

[willandelise123]

tubb's HAS to be THE best :D x

[mrplopplop]

[smokypalace]

[gothicblonde]

The league of gentlemen are amazing. =)

My biggest obsession.

<3

I cant fine the new book annywhere though =(

xxx

[pitamupau]

go to amazon....they have it there!

[Hiltoninchains]

Im happy that at lesat some people still watch it.But this is only series 1 isnt it?

[lucyw89]

how amazing is series 3?! i think its so clever the way each episode links together, theres no comedy like it.

ive got a big tubbs and edward poster, a papa lazarou one and one for the film on my wall =D

[rebll]

LoG predates Little Britain by years, how is it even possible that LoG copied the LB writers?

[ailsaailsa]

ok ok i stand corrected.. i just thought (no idea y) that series 3 came out after little britain. it was those door 2 door jehovahs witness types! one of them was sort of like anne from little britain... just another thing theyve copied then. >:(

[ailsaailsa]

tho i have 2 say log does copy from little britain in some ways... its not really copying tho. "inspiration" =P

[lucyw89]

LofG was done years before so i dont think so...

LB completely copied LofG. look at marjorie dawes then look at pauline for example.

[irwinfawn]

You dumb bastard, don't throw accusations like that around when you have no idea what you're talking about =P

[ailsaailsa]

little britain sucks ass! its the samr over and over again... log is a very complex and dark sort of humour. little britain fans dont actuall understand it! XD

haha i love how tubbs tries 2 swipe the diggers away!

[Axdssa]

Harry isn't stupid, we are freaks (:

[markglc2004]

couldnt agree more. LITTLE BRITAIN IS SHITE and completly ripped of LOG

[VICTGANN]

i agree with fatscumfilth - lil brittain is shite - did not find it afunny at all and it was easy to see that they were copying LOG -

[WordUpAng]

haha so funny :D

[crazed1991]

stop smamming

[rhysowen1]

harry, shut up you racist dick.

[crazed1991]

lol @ "freaks". how can you be rasist to a country whcih your generations came throguh only a few hundred years ago?

It's America for you..

[NOBRAINERS]

shut up you fucking prick
