Netflix has streamed all episodes of the series and the specials in the United Kingdom.
“We had a conversation with them a while ago and so the seed was planted in our head,” Lucas said.
Little Britain, which debuted as a radio series on BBC Radio 4, ran for three televised seasons on the BBC from 2003-2006 followed by various specials including 2006’s two-part Little Britain Abroad, Little Britain USA and more.
The interview came shortly after a story in the British tabloid The Sun claimed that Lucas and Walliams held a meeting with Netflix over the phone and were offered £3 million ($3.6 million) to revive the BBC Studios-produced series.
