*Bump*

Just out of interest did anyone find this funny? Any comments would be appreciated.

It brought a smile to face ; )

I'm curious though, is the show skit comedy, or what exactly is it. In the US we wouldn't call that a soap opera.

It's from a sketch show called Harry Enfield and Chums, from the mid 90's.

Edit: The whole 'it's a soap opera thing was a joke

I, personally am a fan of Little Britain. I've only seen a little of it, but I found it hilarious.

Probably my favourite sketch.

FYI "scousers" are people from Liverpool (they have a distinct accent called scouse).

That was funny!

I also like the ones with Vicky and the one where the guy is always saying "The computer says 'no'". My sister and I borrowed Seasons 1 and 2 from a friend of hers who is from England. We laughed really hard during those skits.
