Little Brit-tin

Rare footage to be released

Hours of rare, unreleased Little Britain material are to be released in a new collectors edition CD set.

The seven-CD collection Little Britain Tin contains both series of the Radio 4 version of the hit show and is designed as a pre-Christmas tie-in to coincide with the tour and the third series.

But of more interest to fans will be the double CD of previously unheard material from Matt Lucas’s private archive.

Included will be extracts from the pilot episode of a 1996 Radio 4 series based around Lucas’s pompous character Sir Bernard Chumley which never made it to air.

There is also an extended, exclusive interview with Lucas and David Walliams.

As well as the CDs, the set, out on November 6, also includes a two-hour DVD of previously unseen footage of  the duo recording the radio series.

The complete set, which comes in an embossed tin, above, will be priced £45. Click here to pre-order from Amazon.
