Editorial Review:

Description:
Experience again Basil Fawlty, the sharp-tongued, short-tempered owner of Fawlty Towers, and the quiet humor of Lionel Hardcastle (As Time Goes By), the once dashing young Army officer. Remember Father Dougal (Father Ted), the priest oblivious to anything outside of his always-sunny world; a character that Ardal O'Hanlon modeled after a dog. And who can forget the two words from Mr. Humphries (Are You Being Served) that can always make you smile, 'I'm free!' Revisit these and many more of your favorite characters. Join host Lenny Henry (Chef!) in honoring the careers and contributions of Britain's funniest blokes with clips of their funniest moments and new interviews.

DVD Features:
Biographies
Interviews:Extended interviews with Ardal O'Hanlon (Father Ted), Geoffrey Palmer (As Time Goes By) and Richard Briers (Good Neighbors)

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - * I was tricked by this one ...
The DVD is just a presentation where a speaker talks about different shows of the British Comedy. I was expecting to see a presentation and then the complete shows, but instead they are just small parts (a few seconds) of the mentioned shows.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great special ...
I watched this when it was on PBS a few months back, in fact, during the show I whipped out my laptop and went to Amazon to search for it. It wasn't there, but I'm so glad BBC decided to release it. Hosted by Lenny Henry, it highlights the best of all my favorite British comedy actors, including John Cleese, Richard Briers, and John Inman. Great purchase, well worth it, will have you remembering all those great moments watching britcoms.

Beyonce's London fans go crazy when the Destiny's Child beauty, on her first solo international tour, descends to a massive stage while suspended, upside down, from a wire. After a delicate landing, the star embarks on a set of recent hits immersed in complicated arrangements, including the Arabic sound of "Baby Boy" and "Naughty Girl," the chunky, hypnotic funk of "Hip Hop Star," and Beyonce: Live at Wembley's best performance, the powerful "Work It Out," in which the diva is at her clearest, jazziest, and most soulful. Not everything works. The bottom falls out of "Gift from Virgo," "Be with You" is forgettable, and Beyonce's stage patter needs polish. But a Destiny's Child medley accompanied by only a DJ is innovative and fun, "Summertime" proves a breezy dance number, and "Crazy in Love" is bolstered by what sounds like the old Stax horns. A CD featuring a few remixes is included with the DVD. --Tom Keogh
