Little Britain Characters - L - Lou and Andy

Lou and Andy

Played By: David Walliams and Matt Lucas respectively
Catchphrase: Andy: "I want that one...", "I don't like it", "I look a pillock", "Yeah I know!"; Lou: "bit of a kerfuffle!" "Are you sure?"
Appearances: Throughout entire series

Lou Todd is Andy Pipkin's carer but is often taken advantage of by Andy in various ways, although deep down Andy loves Lou. These include Andy's demanding things then rejecting them when they are done for him (or when they are given to him), and Andy's ability to walk and perform complex physical activities while out of his wheelchair while Lou's back is turned.

Andy is often rude and antisocial to other characters, and kills Lou's replacement by pushing her off a cliff when she becomes too demanding for him. The pair are the longest serving members of the cast of characters having appeared in every episode except the TV pilot and the radio series.

The names come from two characters in a Rock Profiles sketch, supposedly Lou Reed and Andy Warhol.

Famous quotes containing the words lou and/or andy:

    We have got to stop the nervous Nellies and the Toms from going to the Man’s place. I don’t believe in killing, but a good whipping behind the bushes wouldn’t hurt them.... These bourgeoisie Negroes aren’t helping. It’s the ghetto Negroes who are leading the way.
    —Fannie Lou Hamer (1917–1977)

    If you want to know all about Andy Warhol, just look at the surface: of my paintings and films and me, and there I am. There’s nothing behind it.
    Andy Warhol (c. 1928–1987)
