Come Fly with Me
30 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
We wondered whether the stars of Little Britain could come back with something just as good, not necessarily a sketch show, but that was a good option, and they did it. Matt Lucas and David Walliams bring us this mock documentary series set in a fictional airport with various characters working and hanging about in it, basically, taking the mick of programmes like Airport. Characters included foreign FlyLo owner Omar Baba, lazy coffee kiosk manager Precious possibly my favourite character), passenger liaison officer Moses Beacon, chief immigration officer Ian Foot, ground crew member Taaj Manzoor, camp Irish steward Fearghal O'Farrell, holiday makers Peter and Judith, and there were many more besides, all making us laugh with mildly racist material, disgusting stuff, and well written dialogue. Narrated by Lindsay Duncan, with guest appearances by Geri Halliwell, David Schwimmer, Rupert Grint, Barbara Windsor, Anna Friel and many more. I was expecting appearances from characters like Vicky Pollard and Daffyd Thomas, but it doesn't matter, Walliams and Lucas have created a pretty funny follow up from their big successful show, and I certainly wouldn't have missed this. Very good!
