Since I didn't know in advance that there were only two main actors, it took a long time to convince myself that so many characters were always the magical cross-dressing of those two people. A plays the manager of the performance company, the shop owner, the transvestite C, the young man E, the mentally handicapped G, the racist Mrs. J's friend Mrs. I, the rebellious girl K, the weight loss class supervisor Mrs. M, the lonely gay boy P , Mrs. Bubble, who is super fat and loves to run naked... B plays a mini-artist, a strange customer, a transvestite D, a friend of a young man E, a kind person H who takes care of the mentally handicapped G, and a racist Mrs. J , Mrs. L, who is incontinent, the owner of a Scottish castle hotel, N, the Prime Minister's assistant... There are so many things I can recall all at once.
The acting skills are absolutely thumbs up, plus the makeup props, all the characters are exaggerated and real. I don't know how many think tanks are behind the character design. The heavy responsibility of many roles rests on the shoulders of the two, the roles are independent of each other, and there is no smell, which is really not easy. When Atkinson's Black Jazz comes on, at least it reminds me of Bean every now and then. When it came to "Little Britain", little people ran up to the stage, like a never-ending revolving lantern, thinking that thousands of horses had run by, but it was actually the two horses.
Racist Mrs. J, who vomits a lot whenever she eats food of color. The screenwriter is also really disgusting, every episode has a super exaggerated vomit scene, vomit like a fire hydrant sprayed on the actors. That is, the image of the racist is drawn in a circle. Although it can be said to be ironic, the laughter of most of the audience (the laughter recorded before the skit was broadcast) is still tolerant of Mrs. J's antics. The audience is here to relax, to laugh at the drama, and they won't come forward to criticize the ideology inside.
Mrs. M, the weight-loss class supervisor, is also racist, but that's not the main highlight of her role. She loved having the only Indian student in the class answer questions, and wasted no time in digging at her. One time, when an Indian student won the lottery prize, Mrs. M babbled softly for a while, in order to get some money from the Indian student. Ten years of active lottery-buying British citizens missed a single one, but God bless the Indians. This reminds me of This is England, the 2006 movie. The movie is filled with the sad patriotism of the high-pitched xenophobic '80s skinheads, if that can be called patriotism. I still remember a sentence from the "leader" of the skinheads: We are not racist, we are nationalist. Unfortunately, this kind of patriotism is exclusive, selfish, intolerant and fraternal. It should be noted that the flags they hang in the windows are the England flag, the Red Cross flag, St George's Red Cross - not the national flag.
Reminds me of Katie Melua singing: If a black man is racist, is it OK? If it's the white man's racism that made him that way.
