  1. The only one I can think of is Little Britain.

    Lou Todd and Andy Pipkin

        Main article: Lou and Andy

    Played by: David Walliams and Matt Lucas, respectively

    Appearances: Since Series 1

    Catchphrase:

            Lou: “Oh, what a kerfuffle”, as well as paraphrasing off-screen insightful comments from Andy

            Andy: "I want that one!", "I don't like it!", “Yeah, I know”, "I look a pillock!", as well as getting off his wheelchair and running around when Lou is not watching

    Andy is in a wheelchair, and Lou, his care-giver, looks after him with great devotion. However, Andy is not really disabled at all; he is only pretending to be so that he doesn't have to do anything other than what he likes to do. Lou and Andy sketches follow two common patterns: Andy has Lou go through some great hassle for him (such as carrying his wheelchair up flights of steps), and then Lou is required to leave for a few moments, during which time Andy gets out of his chair and does something that a disabled person would be unable to do. The second pattern is that Andy makes an arbitrary decision about something, in spite of Lou's best advice that it's a bad choice, then after Lou has committed to the decision Andy changes his mind. Lou also often repeats eloquent views on various things supposedly by said Andy (i.e. "I thought you said that cosmetic enhancements was symbolic of an image worshipping society.") to which Andy usually replies: "Yeah, I Know." Not much is known about their families, apart from in the first series we hear about Andy's brother Declan. In Series Three Lou went to his mother's funeral in the Isle of Wight, and a strict careworker called Mrs. Mead played by Imelda Staunton came to look after him. His tricks no longer worked on her, so (at the end of the series) Andy pushes her off a cliff in order to get Lou back. In the end of the series it is shown that Andy does care for Lou as a friend.
