BRITISH celebrities including Dr Who babe Karen Gillan have shown themselves to be Angry Boys.

Gillan and League of Gentlemen actor Reece Shearsmith were among a sold-out crowd at Islington's 02 Academy for a one-off performance of Chris Lilley's rapper S.mouse on the weekend.

Hundreds of fans packed in to hear show tunes Animal Zoo, Poo On You and Slap My Elbow, with dozens dressed as the rapper and Lilley's Summer Heights High character Ja'mie King.

The gig followed a four-hour signing at Oxford St's HMV, where Lilley met more than 1000 fans.

The series has been a smash hit for BBC3 across the UK.

Lilley's producer Laura Waters said: "This is beyond thrilling. Chris and I are overwhelmed. The British people are total legends."
