The BBC has restored Little Britain to iPlayer after creators Matt Lucas and David Walliams made "edits" to the original programmes.
The sketch comedy show was removed in 2020 at the height of the Black Lives Matter movement, with Lucas and Williams apologising for their use of "blackface" in certain sketches.
Now all three series, plus two specials, are back for streaming on iPlayer - although certain characters, including Desiree DeVere and Pastor Jesse King, have been edited out completely.
A BBC spokesperson said: "Little Britain has been made available to fans on BBC iPlayer following edits made to the series by Matt and David that better reflect the changes in the cultural landscape over the last twenty years since the show was first made."
Some of the episodes are now also preceded by a warning to viewers that the show "contains discriminatory language".
