Same Old Gags.
So which of the Little Britain skits are NON forumlaic? Ie all the other sketches are the same thing over and over, so which have a degree of something new each time?
All I can think of is Vicki Pollard and to a degree, Fat Fighters although the constant gag of not being able to understand the Indian woman is old). The Scottish Hotelier was funny, but they retired him. Kenny Craig, ASIDE the "look in to my eyes.." bit is usually quite original too.
Here's the ones which are the SAME JOKE EVERY SINGLE TIME!! If you tune in to ANY episode, this is what you will see:
LOU AND ANDY:
Andy will want something, Lou will think it's a bad idea but will confirm it with Andy, who will then change his mind afterwards.
Lou will go to get help for Andy, who when Lou isnt looking, will get out of the chair and do something physical, returning to his chair before Lou sees.
BUBBLES:
She will get naked and is fat.
DAFFYD:
He will state that he's gay, possibly accuse someone else of being homophobic, and be in disbelief/shock/discomfort when told of other gays being present in his village.
SHOP:
The boring man will ask for something obscure, the shopkeeper will call up to his wife, who will reply after a delay, and they will exchange lines about variants on the item the boring man requested.
ANNE:
Her carer/doctor will be showing another man about Anne's progress in a new activity, in which she will do it stupidly and use the words 'eh eh eh', sometimes culminating in licking someone's face or exposing herself.
OLD PISSING WOMAN:
She'll piss on the floor in floods, but not notice it, whilst whoever she is conversing with will do.
COMPUTER SAYS NO:
A frumpy woman will be working somewhere involving a computer, but will not be helpful, using the phrase 'computer says no' to a customer's request, and making unhelpful suggestions afterwards, often ending by coughing at the customer.
RACIST WOMAN:
Maggie, the taller woman, will encounter something ethnic or foreign, and projectile vomit everywhere and over everyone.
LINDA:
She will phone someone and make a request for a student who has come to her for help, whilst describing their obvious physical descriptions, with no tact, and often breaking political correctness.
EMILY HOWARD:
Will have to encounter someone, who will refer to her as being male, which she'll deny.
SEBASTIAN:
Is gay and in love with the prime minister and will make passes at him whilst being jealous of anyone else vying for his attention.
I've probably missed others, but you know what I mean, they're all the bloody same, EVERY SINGLE TIME!
If they got RID of the above ones and made some new sketches, it'd be funnier. Plenty of times they've done a single sketch or a sketch that was just in one series or just one episode but 2 occurances etc which were really funny! They should do more like that instead of lazily just regurgitating the same jokes over and over.
Do you agree?
And can you think of any of the repetative skits which I've missed off?
