Mum has let me borrow her dvd. Just off to bed to watch it now.
Have seen a few clips from her show and I know the languate can be quite blue.
Just wondered if she was popular with MNers.

Some of her stuff I found quite funny but then each episode seemed to be the same as the last so I thought it got a bit stale & samey as alot of other stuff

Well thats my view Grin

JoolsToo · 27/02/2006 22:17

no - the old lady is quite funny but that's about it - like whizzz says - its the same every week (like Little Britain) so it gets tedious

Racers · 27/02/2006 22:18

ditto Whizzz. Nan is top dog tho.

Racers · 27/02/2006 22:18

there, you have your consensus Wink

NomDePlume · 27/02/2006 22:18

No, I think she's awful. Every single one of her 'characters' just gets on my wick. TBH, I think she just leapt onto the Little Britain band-waggon.

Flossam · 27/02/2006 22:19

if you haven't seen it before will be good for a giggle. I am sick to death of Little Britain!!

chjlly · 27/02/2006 22:21

No the Bovvered thing really winds me up!

Racers · 27/02/2006 22:29

Nooo the "am I bovvered" stuff is excellent! I am the only Briton alive not to have seen Little Britain, I think!

spidermama · 27/02/2006 22:31

Some of her characters have my sides aching as I roll around the floor.
Others leave me cold.
She's a very talented woman though it can't be denied.

alexsmum · 27/02/2006 22:32

.....and there was a couple of on there as well that cracked me up. They had just been out for the evening and she wouldn't kiss him as he was too ugly and she wasn't drunk enough. Grin

no

Enid · 28/02/2006 12:11

oh I think she is hilarious

sweary nan is a thing of genius

and I love the uptight northern couple who are constantly horrified by the gentrification of food ("SHIT-ake Mushrooms!")

and the couple who laugh at everything "what are you LIKE!"

'This is classic ME'

I just want to knock her bloody teeth out. Same unoriginal crap week in, week out.

welshboris · 28/02/2006 12:16

I like the nan, and the "YOU. ARE. A. NUTTER." couple

But you know whats coming after a while

Greensleeves · 28/02/2006 12:17

I LOVE her. She is much better than Little Britain. I think she is like a female Ricky Gervaise - she has identified a new set of archetypes for our society. Like Chaucer (with concomitant crude and vulgar humour!).

LadyTophamHatt · 28/02/2006 12:25

Uugghh NO I do not.

Awful awful awful

That swearing old later makes me cringe.

snafu · 28/02/2006 12:25

Think CT is very talented as a character actress but not actually particularly funny, iyswim. Couldn't sit through a whole DVD.

LadyTophamHatt · 28/02/2006 12:25

later??
lady i mean

LadyTophamHatt · 28/02/2006 12:25

DaddyCool · 28/02/2006 12:26

i'm not overly keen on her. the 'wot ya sayin' character just annoys me.

Pixel · 28/02/2006 17:41

The 'am I bovvered?' thing goes on so long I end up gritting my teeth!

noddyholder · 28/02/2006 17:42

I think she is really talented but small doses of her are enough
