Alfie Bass British Comedian

Based on an award-winning British television series, "Whoops Apocalypse" is an irreverent send-up of international politics. Loretta Swit ("M.A.S.H.") stars as Barbara Adams, America's first female President. No sooner does she take office than her first international crisis arises: the tiny Central American country of Maguadora invades the British protectorate of Santa Maya, and England vows to remain it. A simple territorial dispute quickly becomes a game of nuclear roulette involving some of the zaniest political players since Dr. Strangelove learned to love the bomb. Veteran British comedian Peter Cook turns in a wonderfully dry performance as the lunatic prime minister Sir Mortimer Chris, whose peculiar form of diplomacy forces a superpower conflict that edges the world toward nuclear war. Can President Adams save the world before it's too late? A distinguished supporting cast, including Herbert Lom ("The Pink Panther" series), round out this insightful black comedy, delivered with audacious British wit.

In the 1990s, comedians seemed to dominate every sphere of Britain's cultural life. So perhaps it was fitting that in a decade when politics, sports, art, literature, and even religion threatened to become branches of light entertainment, the best British comedies--"The Office, The Day Today, The Fast Show, Shooting Stars, Father Ted, I'm Alan Partridge, The League of Gentlemen, The Royle Family--offered the clearest picture of what was happening to the country. This provocative, very funny book unearths the true twisted beauty of British comedy's psychic root system: from the stains on Caroline Aherne's sofa to Ricky Gervais' self-destructive love affair with dairy products. Ben Thompson writes for "THE INDEPENDENT, THE FACE, and "GQ.

A fine testament to some of Britain`s best loved female comics. Unfortunately, English isn't the British Secret Service`s first choice for the job; he's just the only secret agent that is still alive. When the British government fears that a plan is afoot to steal the royal family's beloved crown jewels from their secure home in the Tower of London, secret agent Johnny English (Rowan Atkinson) is assigned to the bad guys, takes the most inopportune route into Sauvage's castle, and generally makes silly mistakes--and somehow gets away with it.

Even though English dreams of being a suave, debonair agent and has only the best intentions, the hapless Brit continually makes matters worse as he seduces the lovely ladies of the city.
