I keep the push notifications switched on for my videos cos I don't want anything I've created to be used as a platform for people looking to make nasty comments. So, if you've got something VILE to say, don't bother. It'll be gone. This is not a place for meanness. Leave that to Tom and Lindy. X

@Joeharden92 2 года назад

There’s no way they’d get away with any of those jokes now, can you imagine the snowflakes?

@monkeymanbob 2 года назад

@@Joeharden92 If it made money. If got an audience. They'd make it. Don't believe what the Daily Mail comments page tells you. Mrs Brown Boys runs it near to the knuckle and they've got another series...

Just sat and binged watched all of it again, loved it before im now 50 and it still bloody hysterical, best comedy programme of all time , would be amazing if they could make new episodes .....if only 💕

Great interview Andy, and you are so lovely.

Triple G rocks. Love the non PC content. Brilliant show

@TheLionInWinter07 2 года назад

GGG is one of the most underrated sitcoms in TV history, the writing, casting & acting is unbeatable, I've been watching it for over ten years and it still feels as fresh and hilarious today as it did way back when. James in particular was sensational, Kathy ofcourse goes without saying and Johnathan Harvey is a phenomenally talented comedy writer.

@Nettiekins1959 11 месяцев назад

We've just binge watched the whole 3 series. I'm sure I laughed more this time round. They need to make a Reunion one off.

What about inbetweeners

@jackwalker8424 3 года назад

It used to air on gold (Scotland) a few years ago but has stopped. Back in 2015 they were considering it and Jonathan Harvey wrote a new episode but the BBC said it was "Too Rude to air ever again". I really don't think they would be allowed to air it again nowadays which is a shame because it gave me so much laughs. Like Little Britain, this is probably next in line to be banned. The snowflakes will probably in a few years will deem it homophobic and ban it. People need to stop them, they are killing comedy.

@BobbyManford 6 лет назад

Gimme Gimme Gimme was British comedy at its best. Kathy and James played their parts perfectly. It would still work today, a comeback would be a huge hit. Seeing Linda and Tom older would be hysterical.

@rossco5409 5 лет назад

It wouldn’t work today. Things have developed way to much in the world. Leave it how it ended and enjoy it

@pupuliciousye9189 5 лет назад

No I don’t think you can in this pc world. I would love it to come back

@Emrys91 5 лет назад

Well cross roads has been off the air for years (the show tom got a role on luss endding the show) so it could come back S4EO1 Linda is watching a Panto that Toms in he spys her in the audience an get into a row as she keeps shouting TOM! TOM ITS ME YOUR LINDY OY TOM YA PUFFY GIT Toms fired for fighting an he has to move back in with her

@circle2867 5 лет назад

given that it was almost 20 years ago i think it's a bit late to bring it back. i remember the third series wasnt very good either. the first and second series were fantastic.

Still my favourite sitcom Gimme Gimme Gimme- I've watched the episodes hundreds of times and still laugh my head off- still watch them regular. The acting and script writing 'Phenom' Kathy Burke & James Dreyfus AMAZING DUO. 😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞😘💞💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

@Whippy99 2 года назад

My sister and I still quote this masterpiece every time we get together. It’s our all time fave sit com. I have every episode on DVD and also saved to my Sky planner! 😊

@multimill 4 года назад

I just love James Dreyfus, so under exposed but luckily whenever he does something, it's brilliant. Gimme Gimme Gimme is British comedy at its best. No one was spared, PC was sidelined and the results speak for themselves.

It needs to come back as 40 year olds living together again!!!! Loved how it was sooo not politically correct !!!

@makadeni123 but then they did make Vicious not that long ago and that wasn’t exactly PC.

@billydonaldson5646 3 года назад

@DinGrogu16 3 года назад

I watched it as a teenager and loved it. I even got my parents watching it. I still love it to this day 😊

@xr6lad 3 года назад

I’m gay and I found the non-PC humour hilarious (and tbh have known people like Tom and Linda) and was not offended at anything. But then I’m not a precious gay man and can understand the difference between observational exaggerated humour and someone being vindictive. Which this show wasn’t - it was just laughs.

@davem4544 3 года назад

Same here, at the end of the day you've got to have a laugh haven't you, you'd never get away with Gimme Gimme Gimme now, all the perpetually offended would be up in arms on twitter

@MrApplestore 3 года назад

Yep that's the way to go! Shows shouldn't be censored that much and perhaps people could still understand what derision is and have a sense of humour. I was shocked to see little Britain removed from Netflix etc.. Ridiculous.

I love James Dreyfus, such a brilliant comedian and actor and just naturally funny! I met him once and he is a really nice chap too! As much as I love Kathy Burke too, for me he made Gimme Gimme Gimme the best!

@frazzleface753 6 лет назад

I loved how silly this sitcom was. Just silliness, nothing to think about in depth, no bullshit PC nonsense, just pure unadulterated silliness :)

@ericleach7074 3 года назад

I recall an headline in an online newspaper that said; "Amy Schumer, the worlds funniest woman". My immediate reaction was; "WHAT? Have you ever seen Kathy Burke?". James was brilliant in both, The Thin Blue Line (I used to see his co star, Mina Anwar quite regularly as she lived near me) and Gimme, Gimme, Gimme. GGG was the last of the actually funny comedies and the two of them worked so well together. Yes, I'd love to see James in another sit-com, too.

@davidhammond3033 4 года назад

So many great episodes, it's difficult to pick a favourite. The whole cast work so well together. The wedding episode has me in hysterics every time - "You silly fat tart!" 😄

@thomashavard-morgan8181 5 лет назад

What I love about Gimme, Gimme, Gimme was the otal lack of pretence. It wasn't being meta or high art, it was pure vulgar pantomime and it worked so well as it knew itself and audience. People never took the fact it wasn't trying or wanting to be esteemd it just wanted people to laugh and it did. Add in superb comic performances from the leads and it was a winner.
