On the DVD: Trigger Happy TV 3 can simply be played straight through so that everything on the disc makes a 90-minute pseudo feature, or individual sections can be selected as extras. There are 14 mostly worthwhile unseen clips, three "Bad Rabbit Jokes" (and they are bad), the three "Worst Ideas Ever" (they are), "Brushes with the Law" (which was bound to happen with such stunts as White Van Man's road rage), and four hugely entertaining previously unseen Celebrity Interviews with Hanif Kureishi, Bret Easton Ellis, Uri Geller and Alan Titchmarsh. The commentary track by Joly and Sam Cadman rambles with entertaining irrelevance from a deaf George Martin producing their recording at Studio 2, Abbey Road, to rather more believable recollections of being arrested in Belgium. --Gary S Dalkin

In the two episodes, new and old characters are included in the cream of the Trigger Happy trilogy. How Joly can keep a straight face when setting up these people (mainly tourists), I'll never know.

If you've never seen TH, then it's basically a sketch show, where Joly dons various guises to set up members of the public in and around London. My personal favourite scene is where Joly traps a woman in a hedge maze but there is plenty of other stuff to amuse.

'Being Dom Joly' is the next feature on the DVD. In a wonderfully dry mockumentary, Dom talks about his life and allows a camera crew to follow him round his day-to-day existence as an overnight sensation. But it seems that the footage has been 'edited' in such a way that just exposes him as a selfish, thoughtless... well... pig (refusing to do a school raffle for less than 100). Attention to detail is very important when watching this! (E.g. note the sniper approaching from behind while Dom talks about jealousy that his 'friends' may have about his new-found fame.)

Delightfully funny, a real pleasure to watch.

I love Trigger Happy TV so much.
I watched it religiously when it was on TV. Series 3 is hilarious, so this DVD is well worth buying if you wanna have a laugh. I know not many people can understand these Hidden Camera shows, thinking they're dumb and stuff, but this is truely wonderful. I insist that you go buy it now! Maybe its just the fun of laughing at random, unexpecting people that makes Trigger Happy so neat, haha!
My point is, I haven't laughed so hard at anything else. Dom Joly is my God!

Trigger happy Tv 3 contains the last two THTV episodes ever which were released as xmas specials. They are, quite simply, brilliant and mark a fitting end to this genius laden series. The DVD also contains a wonderfully dry and funny mockumnetary made by Dom Joly on himself which shows that there is loads to come from this comedian. Packed with loads of extras this is a must-have. if you have ever seen Trigger happy this is essential, if you haven't then it's totally essential. BUY THIS NOW!!!!!!!!


Dissapointing, but still of a high quality.   January 4, 2003

Basically, as there hasn't been a third series, the clips on this video are taken from the two christmas special episodes. Although the clips are of the usual high quality, with the different taste in comedy, they do become repetitive due to the lack of them.

These episodes were both broadcast just before christmas this year(2002), and last year(2001), and therefore, if you have them taped, I wouldn't reccomend purchasing the video.

The benefits of the video are the 14 unseen clips, which are just as funny as the normal clips, and I can't see why they weren't broadcast.

The other extra on the video is the spoof documentary about Dom Joly, but again, this was broadcast on TV, and isn't really that funny.

If you have videos one and two, then you may aswell buy this, but otherwise don't buy it, or buy the DVD.
