The many fans of Little Britain, the hottest new TV comedy of the year, will be able to get their hands on the entire BBC Radio 4 series first broadcast in 2001 (Series 1) and 2002 (Series 2). BBC Audiobooks will be publishing Little Britain: The Complete Radio Series 1 and Series 2 on CD and cassette including never heard before sketches and outtakes.

The Little Britain radio series won a Sony Award when it first appeared on radio, and has since gone on to become a comedy phenomenon.

Now, available for the first time, are the original pilot and all eight episodes of the original radio series complete and uncut. Series 2 will also contain an interview with Little Britain's Matt Lucas and David Walliams plus an A to Z interaction character guide, the first time this has been available on a comedy CD.

Matt Lucas and David Walliams' comedy creations are already household names and need no introduction: Daffyd Thomas, the only gay in his village, Emily "I'm a lady!" Howard, incoherent young offender Vicky Pollard, Kenny "Look into my eyes" Craig, and Marjorie Dawes from FatFighters. Not forgetting Denver Mills, Dennis Waterman, and children's entertainer Des Kaye.

Complementing Tom Baker's brilliantly bizarre narration and David Arnold's original music are many characters that have only ever appeared on radio: Cockney Film Star, taxi driver Jackie Paper, Joey the Stool, and two of the worst ghosts you'll ever know.

With a wealth of bonus material that includes sketches and hilarious outtakes never transmitted on radio, welcome to the wonderful and surreal world of Little Britain.

Also available this autumn: Little Britain: Series 1: BBC Worldwide, DVD £19.99 and VHS £14.99. Little Britain - The Complete Scripts and That, Series One: HarperCollins, book £14.99.

The new TV series of Little Britain will be broadcast on BBC THREE from 19 October and on BBC ONE in November.
