Whores will have their trinkets

Advantages: Well writing chaos comedy
Disadvantages: Sometimes a little too predicatble

If you haven't seen Black Books before, then you should definately get this box set, make sure you have a few hours to spare and stock up on the red wine to join the fun and drinking of Bernand Black (Dylan Moran), Manny (Bill Bailey) and Fran (Tamsin Greig).

These 3 make up the main cast for the show, but throughout all the series there are appearnces from David Walliams, Nick Frost & Simon Pegg just to name a few.

...
...Bernard owns the book shop, Black Books, which is any wonder is still open as they rarely seem to sell any books. Rudeness and abuse is just some of the things Bernard treats his customers to. During the third series however, you do find a reason for some of Bernards unhapiness.

In the 1st series, Bernard finds a new assistant, Manny (Bill Bailey), who their shop neighbour Fran (Tamsin Grieg) has to fight with Bernanrd for Manny to ... more

Pound for pound

Advantages: Hours of entertainment
Disadvantages: You loose great chunks of your life

I loved Black Books from its first outing on TV which seemed to slip under the radar undetected by most. Simply a very witty and clever comedy performed by two of the best stand ups our time has seen supported by some rather average acting at times by Tamsin Greig (a face suited to radio, funny that, what with her being in the archers and all...) Obvious jokes in places only add to the joy of the simplicity to the humour but don't think there is ...
...to this comedy which'll keep you're hardened comedy youth as well as your mother laughing (my mum being living proof). The stories of each episode are always an interesting and diverse to say the least not that far from the journeys of our travellers Vince and Howard in the Mighty Boosh although somewhat closer to home. Those who enjoyed faulty towers will no doubt find similar enjoyment in Dylan Moran's character Bernard, the over stressed bitter ...

The funniest comedy I have ever seen

Advantages: Its got great loveable but annoying characters
Disadvantages: Nothing

I have all the Black Books dvds although I bought them seperately for £7 each with a student discount on top of that. This has got to be my favourite tv series of all time. Even though I have seen each episode a million times, it still makes me laugh til I cry. I think the best moments are when Manny is dressed as a bookworm for the story telling, when his parents come to visit and there is the little bar under the resturant table, when manny works ...
...teachers come to hear Fran play but its really Manny inside the piano with spoons! The main characters are Bernard, Manny and Fran. Bill Bailey is my favourite comedian and he is great as Manny. All three are great comedy genius's and they play their parts so well. All of their series are based around the consumption of alcohol and they get through many a bottle of wine in every episode. I started watching this when I was in my early teens, my ...

Manny...MANNY....MAAAAANNY!

Advantages: absolutely hilarious, and some great acting!
Disadvantages: have experienced none

This collection of episodes are among the funniest I have ever seen, with comedians, Dylan Moran and Bill Bailey, they work well together as a comedy double act, with Tamsin Grieg joining as a third party to add to the fun. The Plot The story revolves around the bookshop (Black Books) where Bernard (the shopkeeper, played by Dylan Moran) has a habit of hugely disliking his customers, but all of a sudden, Manny, (played by Bill Bailey) with his ...
...by a very intoxicated Bernard. Fran, who owns the shop next door immediately likes Manny, and becomes a firm friend, much to Bernards distain! Each episode is another comedy filled day inside the four walls of the bookshop. The Characters Each of the characters have their own special habits and style of acting with the others, which gives each episode a fairly repetitive streak, however, this , in my experience, has not made them boring, or sameish, ...

Black Books - a bit addictive

Advantages: Brilliant writing, surreal plots. Genius moments.
Disadvantages: Tempting to watch the eps back to back until you're exhausted

Bernard Black is a very nasty man. He's rude, drunk, dirty and very very selfish. But ultimately endearing and attractive, in a byronic sort of way. Fortunately the other two characters are strong enough to offset him, turning what might have been episodes of smart-arsed posturing into a genuine ensemble piece. Fran (Tasmin Greig) is almost equally unpleasant but still possesses enough moral sense to act as Bernard's conscience. Manny (Bill Bailey) ...
...love these characters we can see why no-one else does, which makes the slightly claustrophic format work all the better. My personal opinion is that the first series, written by Dylan Moran with Graham LIneham, is the strongest of the three. An extra bonus is playing spot the celeb as this is quite an old programme and a number of today's 'stars' have tiny roles. Eg David Walliams is on screen for a matter of seconds. ...
