I didn't watch series 1 when it first aired, i came in during series 2, but watching this first episode, its brilliantly done. Within 2 mins of him arriving at the centre, you understand what hes like, and how the shows going to progress. Half of the comody on Brittas, is simply the charectors expressions/mannerisms, and the way they interact with each other.
As an American, I am curious as to what the accent he's doing in this show is. Could anyone tell me? I am trying to learn to distinguish between various regional English accents, and it's really difficult. He does RP on Red Dwarf, right? I want to guess he's doing an Estuary but I'm sure I'll be humiliated when someone tells me how wrong I am. ;)
mister brittas MUST be arnold rimmer's life BEFORE he enlisted on reddwarf. I guess he changed his name to forget his past as a leasure center manager
This was a great series very funny.... I think Ricky Gervais made a very cheap unfunny copy of this with " The Office ".. The Brittas Empire never got the praise it deserved... Excellent
The bit at the begining in the garden, that suddenly made me think of my Dad he can be a bit like that some times, he bet he wouldn't be pleased if I told him that!lol
I never (well almost :)) comment, but you have uploaded my favourite t.v. program. The thing is I don't own a TV. So I thank you and yet I am also mad with you for "wasting" my time..... :)
I Love the Brittas Empire! All the actors and actresses in it are great! Especially Chris Barrie and Pippa Haywood!
