Bo' Selecta! Audience Reviews

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
GavinoFree I beg to differ with a lot of people's opinion on how the 3rd series went down hill. I thought it was hilarious and Leigh Francis is still as much a comical genius as ever. The outrageous comedy is just unbeatable. The 3rd series could not be the same as the first 2 because by the time the 3rd series was in planning, Leigh Francis (along with his character of Avid Merrion) had become too famous to pull pranks on celebrities and it would have been plain unrealistic. The new format takes some adjusting but the way the new fame has been handled i think is very nicely done. You can tell that these actors go to work every day and have lots of fun, and i think this rubs off on the audience and we see how much fun they have. This program is perfect for easy watching and especially if you simply want to smile. Keep it up Leigh.
sammycrowe Well it's hard not to admire this show in some way - any show with Craig David having a p*** with his nan is admirable. To criticise the show for the impressions not being very good is missing the point of course (although Mel B is strangely familiar). But mainly there's as much effort put into this show as I give when I'm writing reviews and you know stuff and crap and... that dog has a puffy tail! So the sketches are repetitive, not all of them are funny the first time anyway and potential catchphrases are desperately shouted all over the shop until you know some cock will be repeating them at work on monday. Watch it when you're really drunk and you'll probably p*** yourself laughing right enough so yeah...
johnnycool only read this if u are 18+this is on of the funniest programmes i have see for a while. i remember leigh francis in his early days with some short comedy on the paramount channel he was good then.His Michael Jackson character is most amusing. for example there was a short sketch of him picking up his fictional MTV award from Ms SpearsMichael: I'd like to thank god, my parent, lenny henry (aoooorah), mr t (i ain't getting on no plane i'aint getting on no plane i pity the fool), all the cast of different strokes even the white guy, dr trueman from eastenders even his no good brother. one love peace out.also craig david decribing where his got his bird kes from.Craig David: He's a peraguin falcon, I brought him of a man from huddersfield with a dog with one legit is a very funny tv programme
glynyfaron Is there any sense in asking why Michael Jackson has been reincarnated as a profane version of his eighties self or why Southampton-born Craig David has a Yorkshire accent or why Michael Douglas sounds like Woody Allen? Is there any point even in pondering why the Transylvanian born Avid sounds Portugese? Of course not, the point of Bo' Selecta is not accurate impressions but of twisting celebrities into grotesques of themselves. That said some of the voices are brilliant, especially Kelly Osbournes oscillating mid-Atlantic accent. Fun also is Avid's obsession with the D-list micro-celebrities that clutter the small screen (the Big Brother contestant being the most perfect example). If there is something wrong with this series is that it's a bit reliant on the scatological content to pad out moment's of surreal genius. Michael Jackson sky-diving dressed as Peter Pan while Martin Bashir ran about on the ground fretting about feeding his baby was a particular highlight.
