^^ Yes! Someone else who loves Little Britain! And Doctor Who (I admit I'm a wee bit of a dork, but it must also be mentioned that David Tennant is a fittie).

My favourite character from Little Britain is crazy Ann, the "Eh-eh-ehhhhhhhh" lady. So funny to see David Walliams in a pink nightgown and cardigan. Also Vicky Pollard is sooo like some of the chav-tastic 15 year olds here it's scary: "But yer, but no, but yer, but you don't know nuffink so shut up!"

Other favourites include: Father Ted (it's a classic), the BBC version of Casanova (much better than the Heath Ledger film version), and Green Wing (a quasi-Scrubs-like comedy which is hilarious!).

My foreign film tastes are very eclectic, though they lean mostly toward the French (or French speaking) - Amelie and Jesus de Montreal being two of my favs.

You picked out two of my three favourite Little Britain characters! Well, okay, two of four. I never get tired of Dafydd or Andy. I think I cried laughing when I saw Anne appear on Stars in Their Eyes. And yes, Vicky Pollard is so chavtastic it's unreal. Fan-friggin-tastic.
I haven't seen the new season of Dr. Who yet, but I think Christopher Eccleston is a bit of all right meself.

I have to mention that I finally made it to Madame Tussauds when I went over at christmas and my favourite photo of the lot is me standing with Lou and Andy. Then the poli sci nerd in me rocked out when I took pictures with a lot of famous world leaders. Word.

I like watching Coupling and Keeping Up Appearances on PBS. I don't really watch that many foreign films, but I've liked Life Is Beautiful, Run Lola Run, House of Flying Daggers, Crouching Tiger/Hidden Dragon, Raise the Red Lantern, Hero, and Brother.

What Not To Wear (BBC version)-I love the British version better than the American version. Althought the two new women on the BBC version will take some time to adjust to

Footballers Wive$- better than Desperate Housewives

Mile High- a real guilty pleasure

Katie and Peter- It's on E! just in case you have been living under a rock. (If this show ever gets on DVD here in America, it will be high on my wish list)

Cutey Honey- Japanese anime from the 1970s. (It's their version of Wonder Woman)

Candy Candy- real touching anime series in the 1970s. The first part of the series reminds me of Cinderella. I wish that I can post a link for you all to see the first episode with the English Subtitles, but that persons account have been suspended on youtube. Sorry.
