This is taken from a BBC comedy show, the young actors mostly improvise and I think they are superb and hilarious.

What treasure these kids are. Very funny...especially that God can blow up planes much "easily-er" than Muslims. Love the first video, too. thanks for posting these ~

Love English humor. Thanks for the videos. Imagine this kind of show in the States -- wouldn't even happen at least not without an uproar from the fanatics.

I was wondering about this actually, do you think Kid actors would be allowed to be seen to "challenge" the Status Quo in the US or not ?

The fact those kids mostly improvise amazes me. They put a lot of Adult actors to shame in my opinion. They manage to be really cute but also quite brilliant at the same time.

I recommend this show if you can get it in the US.

Well, probably allowed for a profit -- probably not from parents who are religious. I don't think producing it is a challenge -- just the reaction to it will cause some challenges.

In the past, children weren't seen as children are of the modern world, they were seen as young adults. Somehow in western society the pendulum swung to the other end -- kids, I believe are more apt in critical thinking than what is generally conventionally given. I'd be interested in seeing how this development or social coaxing of how we perceive "children" came to what it is today.
