Tittybangbang

I was really excited about this show when it first aired last year as the trailers looked fab, and then I have to admit I was initially disappointed.. However, the originality of the characters, and quality of Lucy Montgomery's performance in particular, won me over. I was thrilled to see the new series advertised as I was not expecting the show back. I am glad to see the swinging rabbit sketch has disappeared though - very tasteless and not in the least funny. I love Maxine - you can't help but feel so sorry for her, and the Tom Cruise sketch is pure class. Overall, a fresh and funny selection box of caricatures. I love it!

I just found this older series online and love it! It's rude and crude. But, if you're middle aged or older and grew up before all the PC stuff became the norm, you'll probably love it! Some skits are 10's. Some are 4-5's. So, I'm giving it an average rating of 7 Stars! Keep in mind that there are some dogs in the mix.

With the quick-fire sketch show format of "The Fast Show" (1994), the risqué crudity of "The Catherine Tate Show" (2004), and the random absurdity of "Little Britain" (2003), clearly BBC3 were convinced they were onto a winner with this new all-female production.

Except, er, somewhere someone forgot to put the jokes in. Painfully unfunny, so far the programme has desperately relied on the repetition of catchphrases which weren't amusing in the first place. Maybe the quality will improve as the series progresses, but at the moment I'm not sure I've got the will to stick with it.

Some of the characters may have potential, and there were occasional flashes of inspiration; however these were more often due to skillful camera-work and editing of the scenes than any dialogue in the actual sketch that was taking place. Overall, if for some reason you crave an all-female sketch show, stick with "Smack the Pony" (1999); this was very weak indeed.

BBC three released two comedy sketch shows within two months. One was rotten, but TBB was a gem. When TBB started being advertised I was of course very reserved in my enthusiasm, little Britain is a hard act to follow...

TBB really is unique and brilliant for many reasons. The editing couldn't be better, the choice of music is inspired, just look at the use of Divine comedy's national express as the entertainers theme. Then at the start of Peacocks scene you can hear the music coming up through the floor of his apartment!

So many funny characters, I am very hopeful for a second series.

I found the whole Tittybangbang series quite brilliant. Both Lucy Montgomery and Debbie Chezen are at least equal to French and Saunders in my opinion. Some of the characters were a little unsavoury and I would love to see the BBC produce a second series but without the forensic detective who has sex with corpses, that was very OTT and not necessary. I was equally pleased to see that the lion tamer remained in the pilot only and I really see no point in the half naked womens sewing circle.

Other than that the Italian Maid was my favourite and The Darts Team were brilliant, also Mr Peacock, who although a bit lacking in good taste, was a very funny character. The show deserved better reviews than it received and I sincerely hope that there will be a second series.
