Amazon.co.uk Review
For people who like to snigger knowingly about sex and bodily functions, Eurotrash Unzipped is essential. It contains selections from all the seasons of Eurotrash, and a lot of material that was never shown because it was too gross, sexual or simply embarrassing--moments where the remorseless sexy teasing of host Antoine de Caunes just went a little too far. There is an entertaining featurette in which we are taken behind the scenes to the editing suite in which the voice-over staff decide precisely which irritating English accent to dub over the unfortunate French and German interviewees; this is a show that has always combined the view that foreigners are funny with the view that most British accents are funny as well. There is a memorial segment about the massive-breasted Lolo Ferrari, an odd exchange with Eddie Izzard about the danger of British breakfasts, trampolines and helicopters and the usual mixture of the grosser bits of the artistic avant-garde and the more pretentiously up-front sort of sex worker. It is business as usual--De Caunes, and occasionally Jean-Paul Gaultier, laughing at everyone, including themselves and the audience, for even bothering to talk about sex.

This dvd is a collection of clips from the Eurotrash tv show on channel 4. There are some very funny bits with Jean-Paul Gautier and lots of Victoria Silverstedt. In a blurb describing this dvd it said Laetitia Casta and Monica Belluci were featured. Laetitia is there, along with Manuela Arcuri and many other gorgeous girls, but only for a split second. Monica Belluci is no where to be seen.

Any avid watcher of the UK television channel 'Channel 4' will invitably have heard of 'Eurotrash'. Since 1993, viewers have either been mortally offended or laughed hysterically at what this 'unzipped' DVD of the best bits of the self-proclaimed 'rudest show on telly'. Primarily, the show relies upon the hilarious narration for the various bizarre stories from Europe with an extremely British perspective, meaning it is inevitably presented by two Frenchmen with a smidgen of sleaze: Antoine de Caunes and fashion designer Jean-Paul Gaultier.
On the DVD, there are interviews with the presenters, a couple of behind the scenes featurettes, series highlights, various 'interactive' features such as interchangable menu backgrounds, a photo gallery and a calendar. Although it proclaims to have the best bits, it misses out regular characters such as the magician 'Randy', but retains others such as Eddy Wally, the Flemish-speaking singer.
This DVD will offend most to a greater or lesser degree (especially Continental Europeans), but should at least contain something to spark of an odd titter in the most prudish of people!
