It's refreshingly rude and loud and unafraid of whose toes it might be treading on" - The Independent Lewd, crude and hilariously funny, "Gimme Gimme Gimme" follows the riotous adventures of Tom Farrell (James Dreyfus), a gay out-of-work actor with a sharp tongue and drama queen temperament who dreams of being rescued from his dull existence by Peak Practice's Simon Shepherd. Linda La Hughes (Kathy Burke) is his ginger-haired, loud mouthed dysfunctional friend, more often than not grotesquely squeezed into lycra to the point of bursting, who survives on a diet of crisps but yearns for a diet of sex. The pair are best friends and worst enemies, sharing lives, the same taste in men and a garishly decorated London flat. Their stormy relationship is punctuated by Linda's belief that she is the most beautiful person in the world ("the auburn Jerry Hall") and Tom's desperate, yet fruitless desire to be a star. The two mismatched flatmates spend their lives fighting over whichever luckless bloke happens to cross their path. The one thing they would never do is admit they couldn't survive without each other. After all, who else would have them? Episodes: Who's That Boy? The Big Break Legs and Co Do They Take Sugar? Saturday Night Diva I Do, I Do, I Do!

This is classic! Kathy Burke at her best! If you've had a hard day at work or fancy a girly night in then this is the DVD for you. As a Kevin and Perry fan I know what to expect from Kathy Burke and she is just brilliant. Whatever type of comedy you're into then this cannot fail to press the right buttons - believe me you will laugh until your sides ache! The whole collection in a pack is excellent!
Absolutely love this series, arrived quick, very good condition no problems at all :)!!
I enjoyed this comedy although it was rather old. It was a bit raunchy but compared with today's shows it was quite tame! The actors were very good and the set suited the show.
know matter how many times you watch it, its a classic and funny
I just love this series, really funny!
I bought 'Gimme Gimme Gimme - The Complete Collection [Box Set]' when I saw it advertised on Zavvi at an amazingly low price! It's a brilliant collection and includes every episode of the show. Hours of entertainment in one package.
Gimme Gimme Gimme - The Complete Collection are great DVD's and they are well worth the money.
Very funny DVDs!
Very good actors, good plots, most of all very funny! It's a pity that no more programs where ever recorded.
Loves this when it first came out, and now I'm over the moon to own this collection! Such a great buy!
