David Walliams and Quentin Blake are the odd couple "David Walliams, comedian, actor, cross-Channel swimmer, and now writer of children's books, folds his 6ft 3in frame into a tiny chair in the foyer of the National Theatre, opposite illustrator Quentin Blake. Walliams is wearing a bold tweed suit and unapologetically carrying a manbag. Blake, 77, has on a slightly scruffy navy jacket and the trademark white leather shoes that Roald Dahl teasingly referred to as “Quent's old plimsolls”. Frankly, there is an air of very polite and very British eccentricity about them both." Full story...

Source 2. Comics do go too far... that’s our job David Walliams found fame playing vomiting racists, incontinent old women and sexual deviants in Little Britain. Yet over the last couple of weeks venomous criticism from the politically-correct brigade has been aimed at other brilliant British comics accused of overstepping the mark. Those in the spotlight include occasional Sun columnist Frankie Boyle. But David - who this week caused controversy of his own by yanking down super-producer Mark Ronson's trousers in front of 3,000 people as part of a charity comedy sketch - has come to the defence of his profession. Also a successful author and serious actor, David said: "This debate has always happened - 'Are comedians going too far?' Source. Source 2. How Roald Dahl left his mark on Little Britain You'd be forgiven for failing to spot the link between such popular comedy catch-phrases as “Yeah but, no but” and “Computer says no” and one of Wales’ best-loved children’s authors. But comic David Walliams yesterday revealed how a certain aspect of Roald Dahl’s work proved a huge influence on his and Matt Lucas’ controversial hit sketch show. “Cruelty is something Matt and I have always been drawn to, and Roald Dahl happens to be the master of it,” said the flamboyant funnyman. Full story... Walliams: 'Brand's met his match in Perry' David is delighted to see his pal Russell Brand romancing Katy Perry - because he's convinced the relationship will last. Full story... Fancy a Brit, Shakira? Latin singer Shakira didn't know where to look when David Walliams put on the charm on The Paul O'Grady Show. The beauty looked so surprised by the attention that guest presenter Jo Brand told Walliams: "Somebody should have warned her about you." The Little Britain comedian was clearly out to show his red-blooded credentials, even asking Shakira if her boyfriend was with her. When she replied no, he said: "Oh, good." Source.
David Walliams last night apologised for humiliating Mark Ronson - after he ripped the super-producer's kecks down in front of 3,000 people. David said: "Mark is a cool, calm character. To put him in that position was out of his comfort zone. "I offered to buy him a new suit. He said it wasn't necessary because he gets them free from Gucci." He embarrassed Mark during his Concert For CARE comedy sketch at the O2 Academy in Brixton, south London on Monday. David invited Mark on stage to be part of his act as he adopted the guise of pervy Little Britain character Des Kaye. Full story and photos... Source 2.

Matt Lucas play to close three weeks early Matt Lucas' play Prick Up Your Ears has been scrapped following poor ticket sales after the actor pulled out of the production. Matt cancelled his appearance following the suicide of his ex-partner Kevin McGee just days into the show's London run. Star Con O'Neill was drafted in to finish the jaunt but low ticket sales have now forced the production to close three weeks early, Sky News reports.
David Walliams says he and Little Britain writing partner Matt Lucas are penning a new show together. The comic actor, who was recently nominated for a prize for his first children's book, says it's halfway between a sitcom and a sketch show. He said: "We're really, really excited and just sort of starting work on that now, so hopefully that will be on towards the end of next year. "We're really confident about it and really pleased with how it's going. But it's very early days." For all the latest on this story, keep your eye out on littlebritainfans.com. Full story... Kevin McGee 'killed himself after discovering Little Britain star had found new love' The former husband of Matt Lucas could have killed himself because he discovered the star had found a new love.

The 32-year-old TV producer had hoped to make another go at the relationship and briefly moved back into the couple’s marital home in August. But in an interview just weeks before Kevin hanged himself in his Edinburgh flat, Lucas told how he had fallen for a new partner, whose identity remains a mystery. He added: “I’m happy when I’m spending time with a special person who I’ve met recently.” A friend of Kevin’s said last night: “It seems he just couldn’t get over the fact there could be someone else in Matt’s life.
