Actress Hayden Panettiere has developed an unlikely obsession with British TV comedy series Little Britain.

The Heroes star admits to filling her spare time watching Little Britain DVDs with her family, and closely follows the lives of her sketch show idols Matt Lucas and David Walliams.

She says, "I’m obsessed with it. I’m in love with Matt Lucas and I just found out that he had a civil partnership (to boyfriend Kevin McGee in 2006), which is great! "I’m totally in love with him and David Walliams."
