Trivia: 'Little Britain' was originally an audio sketch show for BBC Radio 4, before it became a TV series.

Trivia: Series 1 Episode 1 - in the sketch with Kenny Craig on his date, the couple sitting on the table in the background are Matt Lucas' mother and stepfather.

The Doctor

Trivia: When Series 2 was to be shown on BBC One, many of the sketches were either censored or removed because they were deemed as too extreme for a BBC One audience.

Trivia: In series 1, the standby paramedic people are called 'St. Tom's Ambulance', a play on 'St. John's Ambulance'. Perhaps a nod to the narrator, Tom Baker?

The Doctor

Trivia: A sketch containing references to the Woman's Institute had to be censored after the WI complained after it's showing on BBC Three. A logo that was similar to the WI logo had to be replaced and the name was changed to Woman's Association.

Season 1 Episode 7 - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: In the Daffyd sketch, Daffyd has two nipple piercings. As those other gay men come through the door and he pushes them back, his right nipple ring has moved up his body - obviously a clip on. It stays there for a few moments, until the next shot where it's back on his nipple, with no time to put it back on. (00:10:05)
