I like how the Italian PM checks out his hair and nods in approval. The Brits keep picking wrong. Sebastian should be PM now. *Make England sassy again!*
The Sebastian and the PM sketches are my favourite series of sketches in all of Little Britain. I absolutely love watching Sebastian and the PM in action. And this sketch is a particular delight. David Walliams is amazing and perfect as Sebastian, and Anthony Head is perfection itself as the PM (my humble opinion).
Marianne, Do not forget the the actors who played the Italian nationals. Their straight delivery among the hysterics solidified the skit. A masterwork. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I honestly don't know why people are like "oh you couldn't watch these today! The woke brigade blah blah blah" Um, these are perfectly well structured jokes, visual gags etc. The only reason you might think they're somehow "too offensive today" is if you think the characters or the people they refer to are being directly mocked - as if you're laughing at them rather than with them. Which says more about the viewer than it does about the sketches.
Some of the sketches could definitely be offensive but some of them are fine. I find the Kelsey grammar school sketches are hilarious and not offensive
Comedy is supposed to be challenging and offensive! The reason why comedy is utterly awful and watered down post 2012 is because people are afraid of causing "offense". Comedy should be free to joke about anything and people are free to either moan about it or switch off.
You honestly don't know? You haven't seen how many comedians are cancelled these days? Even their Come Fly with Me was cancelled from Netflix. Take your head out of the sand
@@chrisdavie8163 "Comedy is supposed to be challenging and offensive!" r/citationneeded, much?! Challenging yes, offensive, no. The first implies a critique or provoking thought, the second implies mockery at best and malice at worst. Do not conflate the two. And its conspicuous by its abscence that you didn't say comedy is supposed to be, oh I don't know... funny! Rather telling indeed.
@@CaptainGrimes1 Name me one comedian who was cancelled. Just one. Ya know, who lost their career, their money, their standing, didn't ever go on to do any more shows, didn't appear on endless podcasts to complain about it, wasn't in any news etc. A single comedian who you never heard from again. Then tell me, *specifically* and objectively WHY. There is no such thing as cancelling. There is only criticism. Indeed, the whole hysteria itself is an issue of neo-liberalism, not anything leftist or progressive, I might add.
Maybe time for a new online payable subscription comedy series away from television red tape and creativity censorship? Make any character you want from anywhere in the world. Let the paying audience judge what is funny. Not some political activists.
Hahah... the end was everything
The skit is a masterwork of an example on how every actor has his part to make the skit work hilariously. BROVA to all.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
When the translator translates Sebation`s outburst, high-laurious!!

Anthony Head is such a great sport for playing this version of the PM.

The actors that played the Italian PM and his translator are great 🤣 The mimics, body language, the timing .... Everything is perfect and hilarious 😀
As an italian I agree, even if these actors are not really italians.
I adore Sebastian + PM sketches honestly 😆
They're some of the best ever😂😂😂😂
I agree!!!
He's really right if you love him go after him...Their translator is also great
If you love him go after him 😂😂😂

Hilarious😂
This programme was the lat one to be funny on television
So funny
I mean, Sebastian didn't accidentally start a war between England and Italy, so the meeting went well.
This is actually pretty hilarious once you find out that Italy actually has a president
Sebastian the one who should be our new PM not Liz
Satire is just a different kind of humour.
😂😂😂
🤩😄👍
This stands up very well. Comedy far too tame these days .

Is it so incredibly impossible to find Italian extras in London...?
C o s t a 💥💥💥💟
Couldn't they find a real italian actor to play the italian PM?
They wanted to have two people that would have seem to have Italian stereotypes

He is. He's an actor called Joseph Long & he's Italian-English.
@@caro1732 Not Italian, though, as he can't speak Italian properly.
A little stereotyped
I guess all european political leaders speak English, no?
They do but there would be no gag then xD
Now-days, this types of jokes are not allowed! You can be in court! 😂😂😂 There are so many guys in the village, in uk, france, canada etc!
