Some people just don't understand the concept of satire. It'd be like one of us Aussies complaining about Kath & Kim.

I know there are plenty of British people who adore it (and I have met a few). I'm sure there are some in this comm too.

True true. I know a few Brits who LOVE the show to death. XD

And holy hell, talking dolls! They look so much like the real thing o-o

If there was a Vicky Pollard one I'd so get it XDD

Speaking as a Brit I think it's absolutely hilarious, but I guess everyone has different tastes etc.

The Vicky Pollard character does come close to what we call chavs over here, maybe some similar characters have been met by some Brits and it's too close for comfort for them, after all it takes all sorts to make a world.

Anyway I see it for what it is humour and nothing deeper. :¬)

I can show you two, I am an ex Brit living in the US, and He's here 20 months this week. We love the show and appreciate good satire, and though some are just for comedy effect, there is some base of truth in many (Vicki Pollard = a common Bristolian stereotype, etc). How boring to watch a bunch of staid Brits doing nothing funny, I hope to never be that uptight.

I'm British, I love it :)

Although, I haven't met anyone British who hates the show...yet.
