COME FLY WITH ME Character Photo Reveals A Treat For LITTLE BRITAIN Fans?
Today the BBC released a group shot of all the major characters featured in Come Fly With Me, the new series soon to arrive from Matt Lucas and David Walliams. As many will already know Lucas and Walliams exploded to international prominence with Little Britain, the hugely popular series in which the duo played nearly every character on a show that purported to present a realistic cross section of British society. It was a hysterically funny send up of their own nation, or at least it was for the first couple seasons after which it slipped badly into a land of easy catch phrases.

The duo are bringing the same approach to Come Fly With Me, a show that is essentially Little Britain but confined to a busy airport. Once again the pair are portraying virtually all of the characters and expectations are that the format will remain largely unchanged. So what we have in this photo is Walliams and Lucas over and over again in multiple costumes. Which is fine and good and all, and I was more than happy to take it at that and be perfectly satisfied. But then I looked again.

Little Britain fans, pay particular attention to the back right and who they've tucked away in there. I do believe we have a cross over between the two shows because - to these eyes at least - that appears to be David Walliams as Carol Beer, unhelpful receptionist and, for one series of Little Britain at least, travel agent. Which makes her appearance here - if that is, indeed, her - perfectly sensible. I suppose we'll find out for sure soon enough.
