BBC comedies going to film

The BBC network has announced that some of their comedies will be turned into films by BBC Films. They don’t mention any specific shows, but this Reuters/Hollywood Reporter article (http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=entertainmentNews&storyID=2006-07-06T021158Z_01_N05319404_RTRUKOC_0_UK-BBC.xml) [EDIT (2/21/2010): dead link] mentions The Office, Extras, and Little Britain as contenders.

I’ve been watching and enjoying the original The Office, as well as Coupling, Absolute Power and People Like Us, on the PBS network in America. If they could make the movie versions of shows accessible to newcomers, they could sure sell a lot more DVDs of the shows.
