Universal Pictures Gimme gimme gimme - complete box set
Its 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 practices 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 lindas belief that she is the most beautiful person in the world ( the auburn jerry hall ) and toms 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 couldnt survive without each other.
